Salient Thought
for the Day
Education is unfoldment.
Lines
to Memorize
My adoration to Thee, great One!
It was Thy mighty hand that broke the chain
Which held me bound upon the shifting sands of life.
Lesson
The greatest service we can render anyone is to unfold his or her higher faculties. Education does not mean tearing down everything we have learned already. We do not tear down the body to find the immortal soul. We look within for that which gives life. When we open the mind to the radiant light of the soul we accomplish the true end and aim of all education.
Prayer
To You who alone can guide me to light and wisdom,
I offer up my body, mind and heart.
You alone know all my needs.
You alone can save me from the darkness of ignorance
And bestow upon me the light of understanding.
Lead me and direct me in all things.
May I depend upon You alone.
