Speech by Bryan Dyson (CEO of Coca Cola)
‘Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling some five balls in the air. You name them – work, family, health, Friends and SPIRIT and you’re keeping all of these in the Air.
You will soon or one day understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back.
But the other four Balls – Family, Health, Friends and Spirit – are made of glass. If you drop one of these; they will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged or even shattered.
They will never be the same. You must understand that and strive for Balance in your life.’
Practicing the Presence of God
There cannot be any excuse for not thinking of God. Day and night, rolling in the background of your mind, God! God! God!…Whether you are washing dishes or digging a ditch or working in an office or a garden —whatever you may be doing — inwardly say, “Lord, manifest to me! You are right here. You are in the sun. You are in the grass. You are in the water. You are in this room. You are in my heart.”
—Sri Sri Paramahansa Yogananda, “Yogoda Magazine”
