Maintain a Cheerful Attitude
Most of the people do not know secret of keeping youthful. Of the many suggestions made by doctors a 7 hour sleep stands as the most important. People who complain sleeplessness are sedentary workers. They sit in their office; they sit hours on end before their TV or radio; they take little exercise. Instead of talking up to a friend, they talk to him over the phone. At the end of the day, they are not sufficiently tired to earn their sleep.
People who do sedentary jobs sitting in the workplace, need regular exercise. hobbies which are more than a mere pastime also help in the relaxation of mind and muscles.
People who wished to break monotony and boredom, should do a wide variety of household chore. They should do little of each to break the boredom.
Anger, jealousy, hatred are emotions which disturb sleep. Friendship, cheer, good actions give mental satisfaction and sleep. Anyone can stay young by getting inspiration from persons who have remained creative all their live.
Men and woman have to maintain a cheerful attitude. They are as young as their faith, as old as their doubt, as young as their self-confidence, as old as their fear, as young as their hope, as old as their hopelessness. So long as their heart receives messages of beauty, cheer, and courage from fellow beings and from the supreme power so long as are they young and youthful.
Stay young by continuing to grow with a cheerful attitude. Courtesy Wisdom

Knowledge with Common sense is Wisdom
‘Knowledge, without common sense,’ says Lee, ‘is folly; without method, it is waste; without kindness , it is fanaticism; without religion, it is death. But with common sense, it is wisdom; with method, it is power; with charity, it is goodness; with religion, it is virtue, life and peace. –Farrar
Success is not a station you arrive at but a manner of traveling
The Fountain
Waves rise and waves fall
Light supersedes darkness
Calm and storm
Creation and destruction
Birth and death
This is the play of nature.
Be the witness of this game
Dwell in thy immortal life
Act thy part bereft of the dual sense
Let life flow from the fountain
The one Universal Truth
In free and blissful course
Self-absorbed and self-revealed.

Visitor; doesn’t he bite?
Host; That’s what I want to find out. I just bought him this morning.

Quote from Gita
In the beginning we ordinary people are attracted by the uplifting manner of the devotees whose love for God has made their lives holy. W long to become like them. This attachment is similar to the attachment one feels for material objects. But the difference is that this attachment takes us toward God because it is directed to a higher ideal. That is why the sage Narada and other teachers have said that desire , greed, anger etc. are to be considered enemies only so long as they are provoked by worldly objects but once their direction is changed, they themselves become aids to God realization.
For the fulfillment of any desire, we would do well to call upon God first, because only He has the power to fulfill all our desires. We may be in the habit of prying to Him with a mind full of desires, but in the process once we fall in love with Him, then we cannot escape any more! Our love with desire gradually change to love without desire. Once this desireless love takes hold of us, there is no fear of a fall. The sage Sandilya characterizes this love in these words;” An intense attachment to God is love-and that si the highest devotion.” The great devotee Prhlada said once.
O Lord, may I think of You with that strong love which the ignorant cherish for the things of the world, and may that love never cease to abide in my heart.’

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 10 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

We often hear, especially during grand occasions, ‘roll out the red carpet’ or ‘red carpet’ reception. It is something that people do when they wish to give a regal reception to someone special. This is a way of giving a special welcome. We often hear of ‘red carpet’ treatment in the same sense. Probably this idiom originated from the practice of olden days when kings and Queens and other from royal households were received with a red carpet rolled out on which they trod. We often see a similar practice when heads of state, actors, sports man and other high achievers are received. What ever may be the origin, it , is indeed, regal when someone rolls out a red carpet for you.
‘Cavat’- pronounced ‘Ka-vi-at’ is quite a formal usage. It means warning or caution. It means warning or caution. It originates from the Latin ‘Cavere’ which means ‘Let him beware’. It is very frequently used in the legal context. In the context of law means ‘ a formal notice to suspend action until the party that filed the action can be heard’.
Example; Sushman can go ahead with her work, but with certain Caveats.
Opportunities in Life
Your success in life does into altogether depend on ability and training; it also depends on your determination to grasp opportunities that are presented to you. Opportunities in life come by creation, not by chance.
Fewest Possible Words
Say all you have to say in the fewest possible words, or your reader will be sure to skip them; and in the plainest possible words, or he will certainly misunderstand them.
Life
Life is made of small jumps over great obstacles. It is in the courage of getting through them that makes life challenging and exciting.
A really honest executive is one who is willing to share the credit with the person who did the work.
Knowledge is man’s highest acquisition. It is a life long friend and a safest guide in life.
Do you know
They rosy-cheeked, pot-bellied, bearded Santa Claus we are familiar with was the creation of American Cartoonist Thomas Nash who published the drawing shown in ‘Harper’s Weekly’ in 1881.
Come! Let Us Celebrate!
Stretching sound is music.
Stretching movement is Dance
Stretching smile is laughter
Stretching mind is mediation
Stretching feelings is ecstasy
Stretching emptiness is bliss
Stretching life is celebration.
The best advice is usually worthless-the wise do not need it, and the foolish will not heed it.
Knowledge is men’s highest acquisition. It is a lifelong friend and a safest guide in life.
Quote from Gita
Suppose some people want to earn money in order to use it for the good of their country. In the beginning this feeling is quite strong . But when money comes to their hands, they get attached to it. Gradually the greed for wealth makes them forget the purpose they started out with and their won enjoyment or wealth itself becomes their new goal in life. That is why the goal has to be kept intact. It wont do to keep an eye on one’s gain. This is what Karma Yoga means. Who can practice this yoga? Only those who have control over themselves, who have their senses under control, whose goal in life is steady , and who work like masters and not like slaves. When the goal is reached they know that their work is over and they withdraw from work.

Home –A Center of Love And Understating

Monday 11-January 2010

Home is a centre for understanding, leading to success, health and happiness, Healthy growth of every member of a family depends on mutual understanding tolerance and avoidance of friction.
All of us seek happiness but most of us do not realize that home is the centre to remain happy and make others happy. Effective relationship with every member of the family is the result of peaceful environment maintained through constant dialogue, necessary correction in understanding whenever needed.
If your family is moving in the right direction, you would be able to perform your work peacefully and gracefully. That is the inseparable relationship between life at home and work at office. When the mind is disturbed at home, the work at office suffers and vice versa. It is , therefore, very important to maintain peaceful atmosphere both at home and office. One has to work effectively to promote healthy culture at both places.
It is better for the family members to get together once a day preferably at the same time. It helps very much, if the members of the family eat together or pray together once a day. Is it not true that a family which prays together stays together?
Sparing time for children is as important as any other aspect of life. Growing children, particularly teenagers, do need guidance and love. They should also be carefully about the friends they make, the movies they see and the books they read. Elders should take them into confidence, understand their problems and try to solve them. With love and compassion. They do need guidance to avoid possible pitfalls or mistakes leading to serious results. They will help youngsters to think, understand and lead life in the right direction.
Between husband and wife., there should be a loyal and dependable understanding. Each one should endeavour to sustain the healthy values and principles of his or her spouse leading to peace progress and success. It is said that happy family is the result of loving heart and attitude of tolerance. This relationship must be nurtured at all stages of life. Both the spouses must communicate with each other and solve problems mutually. They have to complete the task cheerfully maintaining the dignity , discipline in the family.
One has to clearly explain his or her position with love and clarity. With willingness to communicate, understand the viewpoint of the spouse, any problem can be solved in a short time. One has to take care of the physical, mental and social needs of the spouse. It is also necessary to sustain values and respect will surely lead to purposeful, peaceful, healthy and happy environment at home and office. (Courtesy Wisdom)
Imitation is human, creation is Divine-
Imagination is more important than knowledge
A merry heart maekth a cheerful countenance.
Education
Education is not how much you have committed to memory, or even how much you know. It is being able to differentiate between what you do know and what you don’t
Be civil to all; sociable to many; familiar with few; friend to one; enemy to none.
Doing good to others is not a duty. It is a joy for it increases your own health and happiness.
It is better to die on your feet than to live on your knees.

Quote from Gita
It is said that Sri Krishna gave to Duryodhas eleven units of his army before the battle started. Duryadhana thought, “ I could not get Sri Krishna on my side. Well , what does it matter? His energy cannot equal the energy of eleven army units!” But just the opposite proved to be true in the battlefield. Sri Krishna’s energy and perseverance, his infinitely resourceful power in moments of crisis, his fiery and energizing words in the darkness of utter dependency, and his uncommon cheerfulness and tranquil mind in the shadow of death and in the midst of the defeat of his own people-al these qualities made him as powerful as al the great warriors from both sides put together what to speak of eleven of his own army units!
George Harrison
I think people who can truly live a life in music are telling the world . “you can have my love, you can have my smiles. Forget the bad pars, you don’t need them. Just take the music, the goodness, because It’s the very best, and it’s the part I give”.

Enrich your Life

Monday 4-January 2010
Enrich your Life
Once an individual determines that he wants a new way of life, then he has turned the key to unlock the secret door to success. Here are ten vital points for brining about a radical change in one’s life and for enriching oneself with ethical and spiritual values:
1. Develop a keen desire to become better mentally and physically. Sustain and intensify your desire by concentrated effort. The will to change must be sustained day by day.
2. Review your life. See the errors of the past, and learn lessons from them. Then put the past behind. There is no need for constantly looking back and feeling sorry over what is gone.
3. Determine what is your ideal. What kind of personality do you want to become? Ideally you should seek for perfection and purity. However, this cannot be accomplished overnight.
4. A power of observation and a keen sense of objectivity these are the ingredients for avoiding the offensive qualities that are playing humanity today. Wage war against the petty qualities of all-consuming jealousy, greed for money, the gossiping habit, and intense hatred.
5. Bitterness is one of the greatest obstacles to becoming better in body, mind and spirit. In a secret manner it spreads into every part of one’s personality. Bitterness develops when one’s cherished desires are prevented. It is enhanced by the recollection of sorrowful events of the past. A bitter memory must be checked by asserting; “What was before is gone and cannot be redone. But I am the architect of my destiny. Let me handle the present situation, and build a golden future”.
6. In order to make a sweeping change in your life you should entertain a new current of thought. Let a new philosophical outlook emerge out of the ashes from the ruins of the past. Allow the sweet breeze of spring to blow across your mind.
7. Read aloud any inspiring passage from your favorite scripture for few minutes every day. Listen to your voice. As the days pass by you will find more and more comfort and strength from these readings.
8. Write on your mirror each morning the virtue you will try to highlight for the day. If it is selflessness, try to observer your mind during the day. Set apart of least and hour for rendering selfless service to others. Next day write another virtue on the mirror. Thus each day will be challenge for you. Gradually you will develop a keen and alert intellect an intellect that is sensitive to the feelings and difficulties of others. Be aware of your deeper Self. You will discover unexpected happiness from within yourself. Your ego will reduce automatically.
9. Prayer never goes in vain. Rather, every prayer creates a subtle potency. It draws to you the positive elements that are needed for the unfoldment of your spirit . you begin to enjoy a new kind of happiness, and an unusual peace. Prayer leads you on to the amazing heights of spiritual glory.
10. Lastly, but not lesser in importance , is the fact that everyone should have a spiritual guide-a guru. If this is not possible, one should be guided by the spiritual literature written the cave of your heart, there abides God. Whose is guiding you constantly towards the realms of calmness , peace, beyond human expectations, and bliss that is boundless.
Nothing can be achieved without discipline and simplicity. Be persistanent in your effort. You are bound to realize your goal.
May God grant you the strength for constant self-effort leading you to the Spring of Eternal Life! –Courtesy ; “ International Yoga Guide.”

If your purpose is right and you are persistent even God will come to your help
For today, if you keep God by your side, there is nothing that will come into your life , that you won’t be able to handle.
Spent your time in pushing yourself up, not in pulling others down.
Love the people who treat you right. Pray for the ones who don’t .
We must be convinced that rights are deserved only by the discharge of obligation.
A good kick to the bucket
“Why do you come with an empty bucket? You should have got milk from the cow”, the farmer asked his servant. “Of course, she gave four liters of mild and a good kick to the bucket”.
One our of every ten
Visistor; How many people work here?
Employer ; Oh, one out of every ten.
Quote from Gita- Karma Yoga is simply the “art of doing worked.’ Work can be done with such skill that we don’t get entangled in it. We can then work independently with our own will. What do we need to do in order to work like that? We must not keep an eye on our own gain. Wherever there is self-interest, there is desire for results and that leads to attachment. We must work but we must also take to attachment. We must work but we must also take care to see that we are not “being worked.” In any case, we have to work. We have to take care of our parents. If we are married we have to maintain the family. We have a duty to the society in which we live, to the nation into which we are born and to entire humanity in general . the scriptures say that we are born in this world with three debts; a debt to the god(deva-rna), debt to the teachers(rsi-rna) and debt to our ancestors (pitra-raa).
Work is unavoidable. But we should, as Sri Ramkrishna said, work like a maid in the house of a rich person. She does all the work there. She also baby-sits the children; she is happy in their joy and in their suffering But in her heart of heart she knows that she doesn’t belong to them and the family may discontinue her service at any time they wish . we too must live in the world in the same way.
