Meditation –Essential For Success.
Within the heat of each one of us are dark corners. Let us pray to the Lord to enlighten them, to pour into them sunbeams of His Wisdom.
As a rule angry people do not last long. Be patient with them. Sunbeams of His Wisdom
As a rule anger people do not last long. Be patient with them. Take care of your fancies and imagining. They have shaping power. What you imagine today determines what you will be tomorrow!
A Chinese proverb tells us that an inch of time is an inch of gold. And yet is not time more precious than gold? You can hoard gold. You cannot hoard time. You can lend or borrow gold. You cannot lend or borrow time. And you cannot tell how much time is left to you.
How long will you continue to wander after the shadow shapes of pleasures, possessions, power? Each passing day draws you closer to the moment when you will have to fold your tent and move on!
For success-Spiritual or Temporal-Mediataion, Concentration is essential . the mind must not stay. Mental energy must not be wasted . it is help to pick up a good thought and let the mind dwell on it continuously. Gradually, the mind will acquire the habit of concentration
Debates and endless discussions cannot prove the truth of life. Only experience can. You know whether the shoe fits you, only by wearing it!
Hand yourself over in child like trust to the Lord!” I know of no teaching more practical than this. To be child-like, you must take delight in the simple things of life. You must be frank, open honest. You must not hide your feeling, nor be afraid to admit . “I don’t know!”
If you have taken a noble task in hand, you must never give-up. You must keep on trying even though the times are trying. (Courtesy Better Lives)
Stress Busters
You cannot smooth out the surf, but you can learn to ride the waves.
Life consists of ups and downs. Rather than trying to avoid all negative feelings, learn to accept down times as a normal part of life and become skilled at dealing with those feelings in a healthy way.
Try to avoid or at least spend less time with people who are constantly angry, pessimistic, frightening or critical. If any of these people are in you remediate family, recognize that you cannot change them, but you can work on setting limits and boundaries to reduce the number and frequency of stressful interactions.
A research study at Philadelphia St. Joseph University ahs shown that writing about problems and possible solutions may improve both physical and psychological health Try writing about whatever is currently causing you the most stress, inkling you r honest feelings about t it. When you have finished either keep what you have written to refer to later or tear up the paper and throw it away.
Do not let yourself be pushed into making important decisions without enough thought. You may be asking for trouble by not taking the time necessary to consider the potential results of your choices.
Quote from The essence of The Gita
The scriptures also ask us to remember that the authenticity of our spiritual experience is confirmed if they tally with the etchings, received from the scriptures and the spiritual teacher. Sukadeva ws said to have been born with supreme knowledge. Even then, until he was able to tally his won realization with what he had learnt from the scriptures and his teachers, he occasionally fell into spells of doubt about genuineness of his spiritual experiences.
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

Punctuality

Monday 23-August 2010
Punctuality –Master Key to Success
To be punctual implies having an acute sense to timing. Failing to do a work at the right time not only results in disappointment, frustration or bitterness, it can also prove disastrous. Sometimes, the damage done can be irreparable. Remember the popular saying . “Time and tide wait for none”. One must there fore, endeavor to live its every moment. And to do so, you must have an acute sense of timing. Time is money Wasting time is inviting failures and frustrations. There is a time for everything.
Punctuality does not call for any special endeavor, technique or planning. It is a way of life. It comes naturally to those who have made it a habit. A habit becomes a routine and what you do in routine is always done efficiently. Punctuality does however, imply regularity, conformity and uniformity.
Punctuality , like all arts, can be cultivated with little effort. All you have to do is to be clear-headed and earnest. This quality can be developed or cultivated fast enough. The harvest is certain quick and rewarding. It is true on the road to life’s journey you have many buses. If you miss the first one you can take the next. But you never know for certain that the next bus will come at the right time. It may be considerably delayed and even then, you can never be certain it will carry you.
By being punctual , you spare yourself the embarrassing queries on arriving at the destination, if accountability is involved. The opportunity missed and time lost or wasted can never be recovered.
If you are punctual, you will never have to face the unpleasant situations like “House Full” signs. You will always find the door open.
As a matter of fact punctuality is inherent in the very scheme of Nature. The sun rises punctually in the east and sets punctually to the west. The seasons, the moon, the stars all follow a strict timetable, don’t they?
It a crop is not sown when it must be, the consequences are too clear to need elaboration. Similarly, if you are careless in harvesting, the outcome may be equally unpleasant.
If we do not do the things at the right time , we are to blame ourselves for the consequences. We must not leave things to chance. We must always endeavor to be punctual.
Life is short. Be swift to love! Make hast to be kind!
Wise words Worth Remembering
Your words will have no effect unless you are able to live up to them.
God never created you to fail in life
Patience always elevates and strengthens our character.
Love is sustained and fulfilled by loving
Within every struggle you evolve a little
There is one ornament common to men and women Forgiveness.
Quote from Bhagwad-Gita
Sattva manifests , O descendant of Bharata over powering Rajas and Tamas; Rajas(manifest) overpowering Sattva and Tamas and like wise Tams (manifest)overpowering Sattva and Rajas.
Strange definition
Journalist; A man who announces the death of Lord So and So to people who never knew when he was alive.
Reader; A person whose TV is at the repair shop
Psychiatrist; One who does not have to worry as long as other people do.
Woman. ; A problem which most men like to wrestle with.
Effects of our actions are never lost
The effects of our actions may be postponed but they are never lost. There is an inevitable reward for good deeds and an inescapable good deeds and an inescapable punishment for bad. Meditate upon this truth and seek always to earn good wags from destiny

How to be a Winner?

How to be a Winner?
Courage helps us to live in the most effective and sensible way. It helps us to concentrate on today’s tasks and pleasure, forgetting the past, and leaving the future to take care of itself.
Concern for the future is natural. We must make provisions for it. The only way open tours to influence it is by doing today’s activities to the best of our abilities to the best o four abilities. With courage we can turn our backs not the past. The future is not yet here and remains still to be shaped . We can act only in the present. To act consistently on this knowledge calls for courage. We have to preserve in our efforts to live solely within the confines of today’s circumstances.
Courage and perseverance help to build up a strong character . They build up self reliance. They lead to peace of mind, success in our endeavors and an end to obstacles. The quickest way to acquire courage is through help from other people. Friends can give you the inspiration you need, just like reading inspiring books. Two famous books you could start with are; “How to Stop Worrying and Start Living” by Dale Carnegie, and “The Power of Positive Thinking’ by Dr. Norman Vincent Peale.
Dale Carnegie suggests one method for facing troubles with courage, learnt from an expert in the air-condition business. This man’s advice was to decide first. “What is the worst thing that could happen to me in this present trouble?’ He would then calmly and quietly accept that the worst might happen and prepare himself to face it. Then he would ask. “How can I improve on the worst?’ Ideas would then occur that he could put into effect to help mitigate our avoid the worst.
Once you have mentally prepared yourself to face the worst, you always find the courage to take bold, practical steps to solve the problem.
Dr.Pele draws attention to a similar thought. “The primary fact about an obstacle”, he says , “is don’t be afraid of it”. He goes on to add. “The first thing to do about an obstacle is simple, to stand up to it and not complain about it but forthrightly attack it”. By this positive tackling of problems we will learn to know our abilities and our power to get things done. We will convince ourselves . “ I don’t believe in defeat”.
Determination to succeed is the factor that distinguishes people of great achievement from the rest of mankind. They are not content even with doing their best. They go a step further and try to improve their own records.
The famous American psychologist. Williams James used to say that most people use only about ten per cent of their ability. Ouspenski expressed the same idea when he said . “Most people inhabit a mansion but live only in the basement”.
Avoid self-pity. Be hard on yourself (but not on others). You troubles are no worse than others have to face. They are a lot softer than many other people’s . Regretting about your misfortunes will solve nothing. Only positive action courageously carried out in faith will get you over your problems.
Lincoln’s rules for living.
Do not worry, eat two square meals a day, say your prayers, be courteous to your creditors, keep you digestion good, steer clear of biliousness, exercise, go sloe and go easy. May be there are other things that your special ease requires to make you happy, but, my friend, these I reckon will give you a good lift.
Right thinking
Stop thinking about things you don’t want, and think about the things you want. Stop thinking about war, disaster, poverty, hard times , bad luck, panic, crime, evil, failure , suicide, disease, and death. Think and talk more about peace, plenty, health, life, opportunity, confidence, happiness , progress, power, prosperity, achievement, truth, success and justice. Your thoughts help to make a better world. Substitute cooperation for competition, love for hate, trust for suspicion, peace for war and service for selfishness. Right thinking is the greatest power in the world to establish peace and goodwill among men.
“To live in a goldfish bowl”
The expression “to live in a goldfish bowl” means to be in a situation that lacks privacy.
What the mind can conceive and believe , it can achieve!
Love is to human hearts what the sun is to flowers!
Behaviors is a mirror in which everyone displays his own image.
Quote from Gita
Karma Yoga and Jana Yoga Lead to the Same Goal
Who is fit to work in this way? the person who has controlled his or her mind. What happens when a person goes on working in this manner? The bonds of karma are cut asunder and gradually he or she attains perfect knowledge.
Sri Krishna exemplifies the practice of Karma Yoga in a special way. We see that although his mind and senses did an infinite amount of work, he had not the least desire for the result. Only incarnations like him are the real teachers of the world. Their lfie is meant for the spread of knowledge and for teaching humanity. Study their lives and learn to work like them. Otherwise , if we don’t learn to practice control, if we work with desire for its fruits, the mind will gradually become a salve of the senses, and the senses will destroy us. It wont do to be a slave of the sense. That wont help us in any way; we shall lose track of the goal. We should keep the sense and the mind under control.
Let us have a high before us and keep on working . We will see that a Karma Yogi reaches through work the same state that a Jana Yogi attains thought intense detachment. Both have the same goal, but their paths are different. Although the paths are not identical so long as the two are en route, there is not difference the two once the goal is reached.

TIPS FOR A MANAGER

Monday 7-December 2009
TIPS FOR A MANAGER
If you gather 100 experienced mangers together and ask for their advice, here is what you would hear;
1. Don’t be afraid of the phrase, “I don’t know”.
If you don’t know the answer, don’t try to bluff. If you are at fault, take the blame. If you are wrong, apologies. A wise person once said, “If you always tell the truth, you never have to remember anything’.
2. Never gossip.
If someone wants to gossip with you, politely say you are not interested. This corporate rule rings true; “When someone gossips, two careers are hurt-the person being talked about and the person doing the talking”.
3. No task is beneath you.
Don’t think you are above anything. Be a good example and take up the job-especially if the job is one that nobody wants to do.
4. Share the credit whenever possible.
Manager who spread credit around look much stronger than those who take all the credit themselves.
5. Ask for help.
If you think you are in trouble, before it gets out of had, ask someone for help-most people enjoy lending a hand. Besides saving yourself from embarrassment, you will make a friend.
6. When you don’t like someone, don’t let it show.
This is especially true if you outrank them. Never offend other as you move ahead.
7. Let it go.
What should not happen often does; you were not given the project you wanted, you were passed over for the promotion you deserved. Be gracious and diplomatic and move on. Having ill-feelings will not advance your carrier-culled from Indian Junior Chamber Training Volume-Courtesy; ‘Ideas Exchange’
It is not abundance that makes rich, but economy
HUMOUR
Like a man’s reputation.
A man once took a piece of white cloth to a dyer to have it dyed black. He was so pleased with the result that, after a time, he went back to him with a piece of black cloth and asked to have it dyed white. But the dyer answered; ‘A piece of cloth is like a man’s reputation; it can be dyed black, but it cannot be made white again.” –(East & West Series)
To know what his grandson will be!
Speaking of his ancestry Lincoln once humorsly remarked, “I don’t know who my grandfather was, but I am much more concerned to know what his grandson will be!
Goodness expands the heart
Goodness expands the heart and makes it humble. The larger and the better, the nobler your heart is, the more you will be inclined to make allowances for others.
Quote from Gita
From where will come the power to collect together the whole mind? All power is within us because the Self is the source of all power. The body, the mind and the intellect are only instruments of the Self. Using these instruments, the self is playing , as it were , a great game. Just as efficiency is lowered when the instrument goes out of order, the play of the Self too is affected when the mind and the intellect becomes impure. It is then not able to manifest its infinite power. If , however, the mind and the intellect are pure with a preponderance of serenity (sattva) , the power inherent in the self can manifest wonderfully.

Meditation
First Step in the Discipline of the Mind
It will be seen that the first step in the discipline of indolence. This is the easiest step, and until it is perfectly accomplished the other steps cannot be taken. The clinging to indolence constitutes a complete barrier to the Path of Truth. Indolence consists in giving the body more ease and sleep than it requires, in procrastinating, and in shirking and neglecting those things which should receive immediate attention. This condition of laziness must be overcome by rousing up the body at an early hour, giving it just the amount of sleep it requires for complete recuperation and by doing, promptly and vigorously, every task and duty to matter how small, as it comes along.
Work done is true sprit of mediation

Who is a free man?
To laugh is to risk appearing a fool;
To weep is to risk appearing sentimental;
To reach out for another is to risk involvement;
To express your feelings is t risk exposing your true self,
To love is to risk not being loved in return;
To live is t risk dying;
To believe is to risk despair;
To try is to risk failure;
But , risk we must, because the graters hazard in life is to risk nothing;
The people who risk nothing , do nothing, have nothing and are nothing;
They may avoid suffering and sorrow, but they cannot learn , feel, change, grow , love or life
Chained by their attitudes they are salves; they have given away their freedom.
ONLY THE MAN WHO RISKS IS A FREE MAN.
(courtesy : Hypnotique)

Remedy!
For every worry under the sun,
There is a remedy, or there is none
If there is one, try and find it
If there be none , never mind it.
Good characters gives a man strong personality
Personality includes a man’s character, intelligence, noble qualities , moral conduct, intellectual attainments, certain striking faculties , special traits or characteristics, bearing countenance, voice, etc. it is the personality that distinguishes one man from another
Good character gives a strong personality to man. People respect such a man. Personality can be developed . the practice of virtues is indispensable .one should try to be always cheerful . you must know how t be behave and adjust yourself to other people . you must talk sweetly and gently . you must be polite , civil and courteous. You must treat, others with respect and consideration. Humility is a virtue that subdues the hearts of others.
Behavior I most important . An arrogant, stubborn and self willed man can never have a strong personality . he is disliked by all. Be not agitate in your speech. Do not become nervous. When you great a person, do not stand erect like the man who holds the gaslight in a marriage procession. Gently bow your head and pay respect.
Quote from Gita
The doer without desire .
Who does not boost of his deed,
Who is ardent , enduring,
Untouched by triumph,
In failure untroubled;
He is a man of sattwa,
The does with desire.
Hot for the prize of vainglory,
Brutal, greedy and foul,
In triumph too quick to rejoice.
In failure despairing.
He is a man of rajas.
The indifferent doer
Whose heart is not in his deed,
Stupid and stubborn,
A chest, and malicious,
The idle lover of delay,
Easily dejected.
He is a man of tams.
Bhagavad Gita.
Laugh
Are you waiting for your favorite colour?
She stopped her car at the read traffic light the light turned green, absorbed in her own thought, she didn’t notice the change until the gentleman in the following car came out and politely asked her, “Madam, are you waiting for your favorite colour?
By silence I hear other men’s imperfections and conceal my own.
