“Of these five vital principles, Love is the foremost. It is Love that flows as the under-current for the other four values. How does it flow this way? When Love is associated with our thoughts, it manifests itself as Truth. When Love is associated with feelings, it produces Peace. When Love animates actions, it results in Right Action. When Love is combined with understanding it becomes Non-violence. Therefore whenever you feel angry, think of love, develop thoughts of love in your heart. You will have peace.” ThinkingWayFeelsHeartDoeFeelingsActionValuesUnderstandingLove IsResultsPrinciplesFiveFourViolenceProduceFlowAngryCurrentsOur ThoughtsNon ViolenceRight Action Author:Sathya Sai Baba
