Each time you find it difficult to interact with someone, think of what Baba said about the highest principle: it is light, it is love, and it is peace. At such moments, allow your own pure wisdom to shine forth. Instead of waiting for the other person to shower you with light, you step forward and be the light. Instead of waiting for the other person to reveal love to you, you step forward and be the embodiment of love…Allow your auspiciousness to permeate your world. ~ Gurumayi Chidvilasananda

December 15th Daily Meditation Moment
It is natural to feel that a little status or recognition would not be unwelcome in addition to earning a good livelihood, yet all the world’s great religions teach us that getting something out of life, whether it is money or recognition or power or prestige, is not our real need. Giving to life is our real need. ~ Eknath Easwaran
