Wishful Thinking

Wishful thinking
Whenever I feel that a “certain thing” is impossible, I slip into wishful thinking and imagine that “the certain thing” has already been accomplished. So wishful thinking is a form of day dreaming. When we make a temporary compromise by walking away from truth, we think we sustain ourselves through passive inaction and we hope that things will turn out the way we ant . But sooner or later we have to return to reality, adjust to it n a creative way and accept daily living as a challenge not as compromise. I DO DAY DREAM that I hate none, peeve at none love all and also of a world where there is no hunger, hatred, violence, greed; and only peace and happiness that reins supreme. All this remains wishful thinking if I don’t contribute my mite towards this end. There is nothing wrong with day dreaming now and then for a few moments or hours if it is used as relaxation from tension. Then I recall happy moments, successful moments in the past and renew my energies for the present.
As Miguel de Unamuno said. “To think is to converse with oneself”. You can’t use day dreaming in the process. When you converse with yourself, you must play ball(as I do mentally) to find the big you. Only then will you be able to converse with others. When you are a friend to yourself, you will be a friend to others. And you cannot be a friend to yourself by inadequate thinking, by wishful thinking, or by daydreaming. As we say, think creatively , then do creatively our part. When ? Now! Is this our world or isn’t t? Isn’t the time ripe to abide by what the Father of our ancestors stood for and not compromise the values in the making of our nation and also be as duty conscious as Sri Lal Bahadur Sastri?
By Birth
By birth man does not become an outcast nor does he become a high caste man. He becomes high or low according to his deeds.
What The Heart Gives
What the heart gives away is never gone . It is kept in the heart of others. Remember that great love and great achievements involve great risks. Secure a special place in your heart. A certain place only you can enter. For there will come a time when you need to find yourself and only your heart will show you the way.
Wisdom Speaks
Waters contain All disease dispelling medicaments, useful for the upkeep of our body, so what we may live long to enjoy the bright Sun.
That there is ambrosia in waters, There is healing balm in them, And there are medicinal herbs, Know this all.
And by there proper use, become wiser –Rig Veda
I seek the Lord of the waters of golden appearance.
May He hear our entreaty and grant us a place of ablution.
Whatever gift I have received at the hand of the crafty.
Whatever sin of thought or word or deed I have committed.
From this may Indra, Varuna, Brhaspati and Surya cleanse again and again.
I have eaten and drunk to excess, or consorted with people of violent ways.
May Vaurna wipe it all way.
Thus , rid of impurity and evil and free from my sin.
May I find liberation and pass to the world of The Lord of Creation. Taittiriya. Aryanka
Better Left Unsaid
Some thoughts are better left unsaid some feelings are better kept to yourself, but love has its way of expressing itself despite the silence. Always say you are sorry to people you have wronged. Remember, it is not always what you say that hurts, but the words that you don’t.
The Seven Ups
Wake up
Decide to have a good day
Dress up!
The best way to dress up is to put on a smile.
Shut Up!
Say nice things and learn to listen.
Stand up!
For what you believe in . Stand up for something or you will fail for anything.
Look up!
Keep yourself centered .Remember you are important.
Reach up!
For something higher. Trust with all your heart, and lean not unto your own understanding.
Lift up!
Lift up to God in prayer.
Life
Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets. So love the people who treat you right. Forget about the ones who don’t and believe that everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance take it, if it changes your life, let it. Nobody said that it’d be easy; they just promise it would be worth it.
Quote from The Essence of Bhagavad-Gita
Whatever you experience through your senses is nothing but the magic of the Magician. Out is His own sweet will , he has projected this world out of Himself.
Controlling My own Prakriti, I send forth, again and again, all this multitudes of beings, helpless under the sway of maya. Bhagavad Gita
