Walk in the Rhythm of life;

We are not troubled by things , but by the opinion which we have of things.
Reason often make mistakes , but conscience never does.

God cannot please everybody!
The teacher asked his students, “Is there anything which God cannot do?”
Perplexed the students racked their brains but could not find a reply until little Prem said. “Yes Sir, God cannot please every body.”
What proof is there that God exists?
There is a mathematical order in the physical plane of the universe a psychological order in the mental plane, and an underlying intelligence behind all phenomena. It is therefore clear that the world is sustained by the infinite energy wisdom, and glory of God; more over sages and saints have proclaimed the existence. Deep within the human heart there is a perception of the sacramental presence of God. This perception assumes the form of faith, belief religious devotion, and reliance on Divine Will. When the mind is purified, this dim perception shines bright like the midday sun in a clear sky.
-Swami Jotir Maya Nanda
One Soul In All
The saints cannot bear to see another is hurt; it is of pain to themselves, they feel that the soul in all creature is the same. -Tukaram
Observation is the best teacher.

There was a doctor in Benaras who spent 5 minutes in the morning and evening for mediation on God. Knowing this, his colleagues and friends laughed at him. One day they argued that he was wasting ten precious minutes on something, which he had been misled into believing. The doctor replied, “Well, if God does not exist, I agree that I am wasting ten minutes a day. But, if He exists? I am afraid you are wasting your entire lifetime. I prefer to waste ten minutes rather than a lifetime. Why should you grudge me the ten minutes joy that I derive from? I am not robbing you of your joy; why should you rob me of mine. He asked. The critics were silenced. –Baba- Chinna Katha

Freedom

Wednesday, December 24, 2008
Heaven of Freedom
Where the mind is without fear and
The head is held high;
Where knowledge is free;
Where the world has not been broken up
Into fragments by narrow domestic walls;
Where words come out from the depth of truth;
Where tireless striving stretches
Its arms towards perfection,
Where clear stream of reason has not lost its way
Into the dreary sand of dead habit;
Where the mind is led forward by thee
Into ever widening thought and action
Into that heaven of freedom,
My father let my country awake
-Rabindranath Tagore

Always be positive
Once upon a time there were some baby frogs participating in a competition. The target was to reach the top of a high tower. A crowd of people gathered to observe the race. The start-bell rang out. Quite honestly, none of the onlookers believed that the baby frogs could actually accomplish to reach the top of the tower. Words of doubt wee heard from the crowd.
One day one, some of the baby frogs fell off. Yet a few could climb higher and higher. The crowd kept on yelling ! “It is too difficult. Nobody is going to make it !
More baby frogs became tired and gave up . But one kept going higher and higher and he was not giving up ! At the end everybody had given up! At the other participants naturally wanted to know how he had managed to do what others wee unable to do! One competitor asked the winner, what the secret was. The winner replied that he was deaf.
Be positive always! Turn a deaf ear when people tell you, that you cannot reach your goal! Always believe You can make it!!!
Moral- Never listen to people who are negative in thinking. Always be aware of the power of words, as everything you hear and read will interfere with your actions!

We are most nearly ourselves when we achieve the seriousness of the child play.
Every person is a volume if you know how to read him/her
Life is a art of drawing sufficient conclusion from insufficient premises.
The artist finds a great pleasures in painting than in having a complete picture.
A thoughtless word hardly ever escapes my tongues o pen.
Ask yourself these three things before you speak; (1) Is it true?(2) Is it necessary (3) Will it hurt anybody.
The difference between failure and success is doing a thing nearly right and doing exactly right.
Power of love
Force creates friction
Friction generates heat
Heat creates fie
Which destroys everything
Love creates bonds
Keeps everyone tight
Conquest through love
Is better than a fight

The Best Idea

Monday, November 17, 2008
Launch Your Best Ideas Today
The antidote for sorrow, worry and discouragement is useful occupation. In progress comes from not repeating the mistake. Do at least one kind act every day, and your life will grow in beauty and power. To hesitate is weakness, to turn back is defeat. This is the best day to launch your new ideas and to demonstrate your worth.
Those Who Dare Deserve Credit
It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, o where the doer of deeds could have done them better.
The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who err and comes short again and again; who knows great enthusiasm, the great devotion; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring, greatly.
Courtesy is Politeness
Courtesy creates a smooth road everlasting bond. Courtesy is politeness in manners. It is the beginning of friendship. It is a realization that others too deserve the same consideration and treatment that you expect yourself. Simple courtesies are effective remedies to overcome small pains and petty grievances. They make life worthwhile.
Courtesy is thoughtfulness and consideration for the feelings of others. When expressed in time, it contributes to the well-being of all concerned. Impolite and discourteous behavior hurts others sense of self-respect. It might even lead to an irreparable rupture in human bonds. Whereas, courtesy like water cools the anger of the ill-tempered.
Courtesy is the goodwill you offer to another human being. Courtesy is an important quality to create empathy for others and for your self. Small sweet courtesies of life pave the way to make life smoother. Courtesy wisdom
Religion for Whom?
Religion is not for the weak
For they try to compromise;
Religion is not for the coward
For they try to escape;
Religion is not for the hypocrite
For they try to hide;
Religion is not for the timid
For they are always afraid;
Religion is not for the mean
For they always try to degrade;
Religion is not for fanatics
For they always try to destroy;
Religion is not for lunatics
For they always misunderstand;
Religion is not for the crooked
For they always misinterpret;
Religion is not for fools
For thy always get confused;
Religion is for those who are
Bold, heroic, courageous,
Strong, intelligent,
Broadminded, matured,
Simple and are ready to
Face any number of
Obstacles in order to
Practice Dharma but never
Surrender to wickedness.
The best portion of a good man’s life is little, nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and love.
Have the strength of an elephant, the courage of a lion, the vigor of an oak and the purity of Himalayan snow.
Advices like snow; the softer it falls, the longer it dwells upon. And the deeper it sinks into mind.
A right cause never fails; a true word never hurts in the end.
A leaf, a flower, a fruit or water poured forth-offer it with bhakti(love) in thy heart, -and I accept it. O Arjuna!
If we have no faults we would not take so much pleasure in noticing them in others.
A great pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do.

Determination

Monday, November 10, 2008
Determination
Everyone has some form of hope, desire or dream of attainment. The reason that only few capture the great prizes of life is that this ambition is not strong enough in most people. To achieve anything worthwhile in life, we must have a firm determination that knows no defeat. We must set our sight on the object of our heart’s desire and never deviate from the course we set for attaining it.
Our desire must become a burning desire- a bold will that will never bend. An ordinary desire lacks the passion that is found in burning desire. When we resolve to achieve with this sort of passion, there is nothing that can hinder us from reaching the loftiest height of accomplishment. Failure is not to be found in the vocabulary of such determined persons. Victory alone can satisfy one with a burning desire- Such a strong will to win is one of the secrets of success.
Make life respond on your own terms. Decide now what is that your want out of life formulate a workable plan for its attainment. Resolve with such intensify that it will be your beacon light to success.
“The truest wisdom is a resolute determination. .
-Napoleon Bonaparte
Courtesy: “Madras Academy”
For Excellence.
Success
Success is the result of good judgment; and good judgment is the result of experience and experience is often the result of bad judgment.
Knowledge is power
Knowledge is power
When coupled with humility.
Knowledge is wealth.
When put into practice.
Knowledge is a blessing
When coupled with wisdom.
Knowledge is freedom
When coupled with realization.
Knowledge is strength
When coupled with
Detachment .

There is indeed nothing so
Purifying as knowledge.

Science vs Religion.
Science can give you
Bread and butter
Religion can give you
Love and peace
Science can give you
Money and power
Religion can give you
Strength and wisdom
Science can give you
Comforts and happiness
Religion can give you
Freedom and bliss
Science stimulates
Lust and greed
Religion can satisfy
The minimum needs
Science converts
Man into machine
Religion makes man Divine.

Magic of Enthusiasm

Monday, November 3, 2008
Magic of Enthusiasm

Be enthusiastic and the world smile with you. “Nothing great was ever light that shall leas you on your way. Never be afraid of anything or anybody. Talk, think and be enthusiastic. Start and end everyday by thanking God for everything. Let not blows of life break you but be sure that there is a supreme power above us who shall anchor our ship to the shore.
Learn from butterflies, flowers, insects, birds, and others, the art of ‘peace’. God is among these small creatures too and also helps them survive as. He achieved without Enthusiasm – said R.W .Emerson, Practice enthusiasm until you master it. No matter how dark things may appear, be enthusiastic, for it is the soledoes with the bigger creatures. We are all very fortunate to have our parents. Relatives, friends who love us. All this act as a spring-board to the joy and success in our lives.
Every day remind yourself of your ability of your good mind and affirm that you can make something really good out of life. We should remember that God would always take care of those who love Him and trust Him and sincerely do their duty.
Try to do your best and be honest to yourself with dynamic thoughts of abundance. Cultivate a spirit of self-respect and respect for others as well. Pardon others mistakes and misdeeds. Be generous enough to overlook them. Soon, life will work wonders.
Even when the conditions are not favorable go about enthusiastically for your work and you will see yourself climbing the stairs with speed and vigour, bubbling with life.
Develop a helping attitude and always smile amidst your problems. Soon the world shall also smile with your. The inner happiness is a “Joy”. Cultivate it enthusiastically.
The saying goes. “Cowards die many times before their death but the valiant tastes of death but once”. Think brave and be brave. Remember; “No person who is enthusiastic about his work has anything to fear from life”.
When the going gets tough, it is enthusiasm which will carry us through. Courtesy Wisdom

Second Thoughts
A bright man of London published a book. “Own thoughts”. He promised a continuation of his book- a sequel. When he pressed Charles Lamb for an opinion. He wrote “Sir, I will wait for you next book-Second Thoughts Are Best.” Courtesy Wisdom

Honest Effort Cannot be Lost
A law of nature rules that energy cannot be destroyed. You change its form from coal to steam, from steam to power in the turbine, but you do not destroy energy. In the same way another law governs human activity and rules that honest effort cannot be lost, but that some day the proper benefits will be forthcoming. Courtesy Wisdom
A man is but the product of his thoughts; what he thinks, he becomes.
Every good movement passes through five stages; Indifference, Ridicule, Repression, Hatred and Respect.
Without faith in Supreme Being human life will be like a building without a foundation or a ship without a ballast.
What lies behind us, and what lies before us are tiny matters when compared to what lies within us.
Crown of home is Godliness. Beauty of home is orderliness. Blessing of home is contentment.
Nothing gives one person so much advantage over another as to remain always cool and unruffled under all circumstances.
Divine Strength
Never be over-confident
About your strength.
Human strength is not
Enough to break
This terrible bondage called world.
Take the help of God, an
Embodiment of divine strength,
And you are safe.

This world is ever ready
To pounce upon you like a
Tiger. Ready to drag you
And to kill you. But this
Animal called world cannot
Touch you if you keep constant
Company of God.
