Man-The Maker of His Destiny
Swami Vivekananda
We are responsible for what we are, and whatever we wish ourselves to be, we have the power to make ourselves. If what we are now has been the result of our own past actions, it certainly follows that whatever we wish to be in future can be produced by our present actions; so we have to know how to act.
This human body is the greatest body in the universe, and a human being the greatest being. Man in higher than all animals, none is greater than man.
Man is man, so long as he is struggling to rise above nature and this nature is both internal and external.
If we read the history of nations between the lines, we shall always find that the rise of a nation comes with the increase in the number of such men, and the fall of begins in the absence of such men. That is to say, the mainsprings of the strength of every race lies in its spirituality, and the death of that race begins the day that spiritually declines and materialism gains ground.
This world is the great gymnasium where we come to make ourselves strong.
Men in general lay all the blame of life on their fellow men or failing that, on God and say it is fate. Where is fate? We reap what we sow. We are the makers of our own fate. None else has the blame , none has the praise.
Every thought that we think, every deed that we do, after a certain time becomes fine, goes into seed form , so to speak, and lives in the fine body in a potential form, and after a time, it emerges again and bears its results. These results condition the life of man. Thus he moulds his own life. Man is not bound by any other laws excepting those which he makes for himself.
My ideal, indeed, can be put into a few words, and this is; to preach unto mankind their divinity, and to make it manifest in every moment of life.
I am sure God will pardon a man who will use his reason and cannot trust, rather than a man who trust blindly, instead of using the faculties He has given him.
We must reason and when reason proves to us the truth of the prophets and great men abut whom the ancient books speak in every country, we shall trust in them. We shall trust in them when we see such saints in ourselves . we shall then find that they were not peculiar men, but only illustration of certain principles.
Why should you not try to hit the mark? We become wiser thought failures.
It is better to do something; never mind even if it proves to be wrong; it is better than doing nothing. The cow never tells a lie, but she remains a cow, all the time. Do something!
The highest things are under you feet, because you are Divine Stars;
It is the coward and the fool who says, ‘This is fate’ so says the Sanskrit proverb, but it is the strong man who stands up and says, “ I will make my fate’.
Life is very interesting. If you can learn from the mistakes you make.
My Boss…..by James
When I take a long time I am slow;
When my boss takes a long time he is thorough.
When I don’t do it-I am lazy;
When my boss doesn’t do it he is too busy.
When I do something without being told
I am trying to be smart;
When my boss does the same that is initiative.
When I please my boss I am apple –polishing
When my boss pleases his boss he is co-operating.
When I do good my boss never remembers
When I do wrong he never forgets.

Life is an opportunity
Life is An opportunity, unfold it diligently. Life is a game, play it with sportsmanship. Life has a thorn, remove it with strength and humor. Life is an opportunity; take it for service to humanity. Life is a problem, solve it with patience life is a love, enjoy it beautifully. Life is a sorrow, over come it with balance of mind. Life is a beauty, worship it obediently. Life is a difficulty; face it with a brave mind.
To Get Result
To get result, decide to have fun. Fun creates enjoyment, which invites participation, which focuses attention, which expands awareness, which promotes insight, which generates knowledge, which facilities action. And action gets results.
I drive joy
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
