"People today do not recognise the value of being human and the preciousness of time.
You spend the whole day in hectic activity.
Do you call this living?
You eat three times a day.
Does this constitute living?
Do you think that living consists
In sleeping comfortably?
Do you regard indulgence in
Gossip as the aim of life?
Did God give you life for these purposes?
Knowing what is merit and what is sin,
You are indifferent to them.
Is this the way you spend your life-time?
At least from now on,
Learn to lead a truly human life."
~ Sri Sathya Sai Baba ~
(Divine Discourse - 18.8.1995)
