An alert mind is developed only by quietening the mind. For this to happen, the mind must not wander into the past or into the future unnecessarily, such a mind would have either pre-occupations of the past, worries, regrets or it would be too anxious for the future. Then that mind is not aware of the present, which is always there...it is not alert to it. Alertness is a spiritual and a leadership quality which must be developed. ''Alertness is the price one pays for perfect living".

Quote / Thought for the Day...
"If we get involved in fears about the future, we shall miss the chances that the present offers us."
"It is essential to know that to be a happy person, a happy family, a happy society, it is very crucial to have a good heart, that is very crucial. World peace must develop from inner peace. Peace is not just the absence of violence but the manifestation of human compassion."

Tonic for the Mind - 21
If we drink a cup of coffee and find it bitter, we add sugar to it. But if we do not stir it, the sugar will not fully dissolve and the coffee will remain bitter. In the same way, our personality has become a concoction over the years. If it is still bitter, even after adding the sweetness of knowledge, it means the knowledge has not been absorbed. And with each contact with the world, this bitterness in us automatically reveals. As long as our knowledge remains separate from our nature, it cannot be called true knowledge.
