An
Example____________
Narada went to Bhagavan Sanat kumara
for initiation Sanatkumara said, “Tell me first what you know, then i shall
decide what is to be taught, At this Narada gave a detailed list fo what he had
studied None of the principal scriptural texts were left out. He had come to
Sanantkumara after finishing the studies of all the major scriptures. He said
he had read Rig Veda, Sama Veda, Yajur Veda, Atharva Veda the Six Vedangas;
also all the principle puranas (eighteen) and many texts dealing with secular
branches. Of learning. in spite of so much learning he said. I am not in peace
neither am I satisfied I had still feel discontented. This sense of
unfulfilment is probably the cause of my mental unrest. ‘Well Narad’ said
Santakumara ‘ I understand that you have studied quite a lot. But what you know
are only some words. You have become a master of words; but you do not know
yourself. You are not an atmavid. Only a knower of the Self overcomes grief. Since
you are to an atmavid, a knower of one’s Real Nature you have been overpowered
by grief’ Then Narad humbly said. Bhagava, kindly impart me that knowledge by
which i can get rid of all misery.
Moral of the Story____
What does this story suggest? It suggests
that it is necessary to prepare the ground of one’s mind before initiation; it
is no use sowing seeds without preparing the soil. The soil must be properly
tilled, and manure must be spread beforehand. If the seed is sown after that ,
it grows well. But if we sow the seeds without tilling the soil, and without
adding manure will there be a good crop? No similarly careful preparation is required
before receiving spiritual imitation. This preparedness conduces to success. This
must be kept in mind.
Most humbly, i want to touch another
point . There is no end to this preparation. Before taking the name of
God , before receiving the mantras the soil of our mind has to be processed unless the mind is pure the mantras will not be effective . the mind has to be prepared through the practice of good conduct humility sraddha, and true yearning.

Climate Change : A risk Assessment
Climate change could cost India
U.S.$200 dollar per annum if it fails to ensure adequate adaptations measures and
the countries fall to reduce their carbon emissions according to the study—Climate
Change : A risk Assessment-conduced by climate advisors to the governments in
United States, United Kingdom and China, the world’s biggest carbon emitters .
the study group analysed data from across the world to arrive at the conclusions.
The new global study was released
on July 13, 2015 in London and Mumbai According to the study global warming is
at a much faster pace than estimated. the visible impact would be temperature
crossing 50 degree mark by the turn of century and water stress in the northern
part of India .The authors have clearly outlined the northern part of India,
including Delhi, Chandigarh, Bihar, and Uttar Pradesh , as high impact zone of
climate change. High heat stress can have various implications, including restrictions
on outdoor work and sports, and not getting sound sleep.
Different scenarios presented in
the report say the temperature could rise 8 degree Celsius , crossing the 50
degree mark in cities like Delhi , Jaipur and Chandigarh during summer . The
study reiterated the fact that extreme rainfall will increase in India and
sounded an alarm that frequency of floods will increase in the Gangetic Plains.
its implication will be on India’s food security with an estimated loss of up
to $200 billion per year by the turn of this century. Courtesy

Quote from the True Charm and Power of Vedanta
Or by meditating on the knowledge that comes in
sleep.
Sometimes a man dreams that he has
seen angels coming to him and talking to him that he is in an ecstatic condition
that he has heard music floating through the air. He is in blissful condition
in that dream, and when he wakes it makes a deep impression on him, think of
that dream as real, and mediate upon it, if you cannot do that, meditate on any
holy thing that pleases you. courtesy Raj Yoga
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.
