    THOUGHTS AND MIND: Mind travels faster than lightning. For example, the programme given by a musician in is instantaneously heard at our house in Whitefield. This only reveals to us how fast the sound waves travel. Even the mind is made of vibrations as the sound is made of sound waves. There is no end to the waves of thought that emerge from the ocean of man's mind. How is it possible for man to restrain the infinite waves that emerge ceaselessly from the infinite ocean of the mind? In fact it is not necessary to restrain and arrest these mental vibrations.

    Like-minded people attract like-minded friends; a drunkard befriends a drunkard; a thief befriends a thief; a musician befriends a musician; a doctor befriends a doctor; and a lawyer befriends a lawyer.

    WHAT IS ?: Man becomes verily Divine when he cultivates a broad mind. The (spiritual endeavour) that man should take up is the of bringing in the blossoming of the human mind. What is ? Neither worship, nor the chanting of the name nor even meditation is . All these are indeed futile exercises and give only an ephemeral satisfaction. We achieve nothing by these endeavours without transforming the mind first. Man is transformed when the mind is transformed. It is the transformation of the mind which makes man truly Divine. Mental transformation is the main spring of human transformation: human transformation is national transformation; and national transformation is universal transformation. The chaos and the confusion, the agony and the agitation that we witness in the country today are nothing but the manifestation of the distorted mind.
