Prayers offer an effective remedy to shake off despondency, depression and despair and enable us to overcome the problems. Sometimes the solution to a problem comes when we least expect it. The mystics do not care for the future, for the future will take care of itself. They ignore the past - which is dead. They have learned to live in the present.
Tomorrow is a promissory note bearing no signature.
Yesterday is a cancelled cheque. Today furnishes us with ready cash. Let us take it and let us waive the rest. Let us act as a good general in the battle of life, and control our thoughts, our passions and our emotions. The mind need not be a furnace, the body a pyre, nor thoughts the arrows and imagination the bow.
