Satsang Thought for the day

Two Wolves

One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson
about a battle that goes on inside people.
He said, "My son, the battle is between two

'wolves' inside us all. "One is Evil. It is anger,
envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance,
self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false
pride, superiority and ego. "The other is Good.
It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility,
kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity,
truth, compassion and faith."

The grandson thought about it for a minute and
then asked his grandfather: "Which wolf wins?"

The old Cherokee simply replied,
"The one you feed! "
