Best Person You can Be

In the beginning, the Pencil Maker spoke to the pencil, saying, “There are five things you need to know before I send you out into the world. Always remember them and you will become the best pencil you can be. “

First; you will be able to do many great things, but only if you allow yourself to be held in someone’s hand.

Second; You will experience a painful sharpening from time to time, but this is required if you are to become a better pencil.

Third; You have the ability to correct any mistakes you might make.

Fourth; The most important part of you will always be what is inside

Fifth. No matter what the condition , you must continue to write You must always leave a clear , legible mark no matter how difficult is the situation.

Promising to remember, the pencil went into the box fully understanding its Maker’s advise.

Similarly , if you remember the following and act accordingly, you will become the best person you can be.

First; you will be able to do many great things, but only if , you allow yourself to be held in God’s hand and allow other human beings to approach you for the many gifts you possess.

Second ; you will experience a painful sharpening from time to time , by going through various problems, but you will need it to become a stronger person.

Third ; You will be able to correct mistakes you might make or grow through them.

Fourth; the most important part of you will always be what is inside.

Fifth; On every surface you walk you must leave you mark . No matter what the situation, you must continue to serve God in everything.

Everyone is like a pencil created by the Maker for a unique and special purpose.

By understanding and remembering this, let us proceed with our life on this earth having a meaningful purpose in our heart and a relationship with God .

You are made to do great things!

Harmony In Family

In the mad rush of our life we forget, as John Howard Payne said. “Amid pleasures and palaces though we may roam, be it ever so humble, there is no place like home”. How true! What strange, compelling magic the simple word ‘home’ possessed! Joyous  and comforting family, the family togetherness. These things have become things of the past.

Now a days we hear as well as watch sitting in our drawing rooms , visuals of violence. Students defiant of teachers and children disrespectful  to elders. It is so disheartening.

We have everything ready made. We share the space under the same roof. But are we living with a feeling of togetherness that leads to inner harmony in an individual which is necessary for the family harmony? After all, at the end only two things matter to man, and they are-affection and understanding of the family . as will Durant said. The family is the nucleoids of civilization’ That is where the values regarding family and society are best inculcated. It is more relevant in modern times than at any other time. We have countless incidences of breaking of relations among the family which ultimately reflects in the thoughts and deeds of an individual.

The best and final panacea for many social maladies of present times lies in the life at home and later in the educational institution where a child is nurtured. All the more, domestica harmony is the principal source of happiness and well being. The mutual love of husband and wife. Of parented and children, of brothers and sisters . they are not only the chief sources of happiness , but the chief safeguards from violence and other kinds of evils.

Qoutes from the True  Charm and Power of Vedanta

Again, studying man’s nature, we can see that he cannot but be immortal and eternal. When we study a living being, we study its likes an dislikes. Whatever it dislikes, is unnatural to it. Suppose you take a fish out of water and place it upon the peacock throne of the Emperor Sha ha Jahan. Would the fish be gratified? The fish would rather say, Throw me into a pool of water’ The natural abode of the fish is water and not land. Hence I likes water and dislikes land. Let us take our likes and dislikes. Everyone wishes to be living , not dead. To be happy not unhappy, to be wise , not ignorant or foolish. This clearly indicates that life and not death, happiness and not misery, knowledge and not ignorance, is the essence of our nature . Hence the Rishis of India have written that the should is not transitory, that it does not disappear with the death of the body, that it is naturally blissful. It is Schidananada, eternal, all knowing and all –blissful. This is the nature of the soul. And it has been demonstrated in many other ways. The question arises ; if it is a fact about you are eternal, all knowing and all blissful, how is it that you do not know many thing? You are really eternal, all knowing and blissful, but you have so far forgotten your true Self that you are not able to know it. You identify yourself with the body and believe in our embodied self so much that you never can dream of our infinite Self, you are even disposed to laugh at a man if he tells you that you are limitless. The soul is finite; the body is finite, so when you identify yourself with the body through ignorance , your knowledge, pleasure and life also become finite. If you can separate yourself from your body and mind, then , and not till then, will you be able to realise your true nature. Then you will be able to know all, to possess all, and to realise that everything is within yourself.

But, if He exists?

I drive joy There was a doctor in Benaras who spent 7 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 4m.
