Thought for the day
as written at Prasanthi Nilayam today
September 10, 2026
What is the purpose behind the Avatars such as Rama and Krishna, and how do they go about achieving it? Bhagawan lovingly reveals to us today!
Man is an amalgam of humanity, animality, and Divinity. It is a tragedy if he cannot get rid of the animality; it is a greater tragedy if he cannot cultivate his Divinity. Contemplation of the Rama and Krishna Avatars and their leelas (Divine plays) and mahimas (miracle powers) is the surest method of cultivating the Divine in man. Before every incarnation, two collaborators for the task on which the incarnation comes also appear - the Mayashakti (deluding power) and Yogashakti (power of communion with the Divine). Maya comes as the elder sister to warn the wicked; Yoga comes as the elder brother to enthuse and keep constant company. Maya thrust Kamsa deeper and deeper into perdition, so that his downfall would be more terrible and educative. But, in this Kali age, the wicked have to be reformed and reconstructed through love and compassion. That is why this Avatar has come unarmed. It has come with the message of love. The only weapon, which can transform the vile and the vicious, is the Name of the Lord uttered with Love.

The Divine Name is redolent with Divine Glory; so when it is turned over in the mind, it transmutes it into an instrument for liberation from delusion. - BABA
