"What is the true ornament of man? Lotuses are the ornaments of lakes. Houses and buildings are the ornaments of villages and towns. The waves of the ocean are its ornaments. The moon beautifies the sky. Character is the true ornament of man.
The loss of this ornament is the source of all his suffering and misery. Man does not realise the purpose for which he has been created by God. God's creation is endowed with several truths, mysteries and ideals. But man has forgotten these ideals. He is unable to appreciate the significance of his legacy."
~ Sri Sathya Sai Baba ~
(Divine Discourse - 1.1.2000)
