    Sathya Sai Thought for the Day.

    Absolute purity or perfection is not beyond man's capacity. It is possible for him to be perfect. But to attain the zenith of truth, beauty and goodness, man has to struggle hard. He should develop deep understanding, follow hard discipline and put in ceaseless effort. Man should regard himself as a representative of divinity and not just a 'man'. It is his duty to cultivate such qualities that reflect the divine within him. He should develop these divine qualities and spread them in society. This is the best and the only suitable remedy for many of our contemporary problems.

    The nature of man is not idealism at all; it is each man for himself. It is this nature that we are all learning how to overcome. That the average man has found this task daunting underscores how deeply ingrained this nature is in man.

    I think we are naturally selfish, and naturally caring. Biologically we need both. We biologically need others for survival(especially so in hunter/gatherer times), so it is in our best interest to care for our family and those around us. However, we also need to look out for ourselves.

    As long as we find some balance in life we're fine. It's when we spend too much time caring for others, and neglecting ourselves, or spend too much time on ourselves and neglect others that tends to cause problems.
