What is the path to supreme peace? Bhagawan, our Loving Guide, leads us today.

The senses should not be allowed to override man. They must be instruments within the control of man. They are mere servants, orderlies, helpers. The knife is best used to cut fruits or vegetables; you should not use it for cutting your throat. The senses have to be trained to be free from tamas (inertia) and rajas (passion); they must be neither dull nor dragging, neither dormant nor dangerously diverting. The gunas (qualities) must be overcome. A student approached a guru and asked for the road for shanti (peace). He replied that he must develop sahana (tolerance) towards all men and all things and all events. Nothing should arouse an interested reaction, disgust or desire. The highest alone must be sought; God alone must be desired. Steady, unchanging, undiminishable Prema can only be Vishweshwaraprema - Love towards the Lord of all the worlds.
