THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

Sai Inspires Apr 2, 2022 What should we expect and not expect from a New Year? Bhagawan reminds us and blesses us with a profound message on the occasion of Ugadi. People greet the new year as if it is going to confer on them some new benefits. The good or evil, the gains or losses, the renown or infamy experienced by people are not the outcome of the passage of years. They are the consequences of their own actions. Samvatsara (the year) is one of the names of God because God is associated with time. He is also known as Kala-atmaka (Time-spirit). Hence, we should not consider the Lord, who is the spirit of Time, as likely to cause good or ill to us. Our actions, good or bad, bear fruits, according to their nature. There is no need to wait for a new year to bring new tidings. Every moment is new. Many are wondering what troubles and losses the new year will bring. For all our troubles and difficulties, the year is not responsible. Our conduct alone is responsible. If our actions are good the results will be good. - Divine Discourse, Apr 7, 1997
