What must we do if we hope for a good and bright future? Bhagawan lovingly reminds us today.

No one but God knows about the future; so it is said that God alone has three eyes (the third eye refers to the knowledge of the future), whereas man has only two. However, if you have had full control over yourself in the past, and do have it at present also, then your future would be entirely in your hands. Man, today is all the time thinking about the past and worrying about the future. Always it is: Past, future; past, future; past, future! Brooding over the past and worrying about the future, man loses track of the present. You must not forget that the present is a product of the past; it is also the seed for the future. The past and future are thus embedded in the present. Man does not seem to appreciate this basic truth. If you want a good and bright future, then make proper use of the present. The present is a tree that has sprung from a seed called the past. This tree also has the seed for the future. Thus, the future is already here! The best way to take care of the present is to ensure that your talk is always sacred. Where do the words originate? From the mind. Therefore, good talk implies that the mind also is good.
