On Being Beautiful

On Being Beautiful
I read that Ponce de Le’on once searched for the Fountain of Youth and Beauty in Florida. But you will never find true beauty anywhere in the world as easily as you will find it in your own backyard; or more specifically, inside yourself.
If you are resentful, full of hatred, envy, jealousy, and conceit, chances are you will look ugly to others and to yourself even if you are physically attractive. External beauty is important, and we should try to be physically attractive as long as possible. Still young people must learn to realize that inner beauty is far more important than external beauty, because we get older whether we like it or not, but inner beauty can stay with us even at an advanced age.
What is inner beauty? Sharing your happiness and good fortune with others; accepting yourself for what you are, not trying to be someone else; forgiving others and yourself for errors that happened yesterday; seeing the good in yourself and in others and adjusting yourself to realities; longing for the better ‘you’ inside yourself and inside others and searching everyday for self-respect and the respect of others. These are the qualities that will give you everlasting inner beauty that will make you feel more beautiful and look more beautiful. This is the kind of beauty anyone can achieve at any age.
Today’s Determination
The way you view the day ahead on getting up in the morning has very much to do with your chances of success and happiness. So start right now with the following determinations:
A new day lies before me. I may be happy or miserable but I shall choose the former.
Regardless of the circumstances. I see myself relaxed at all times, to overcome all difficulties.
Today I shall make it a point to be cheerful, looking for the pleasant and beautiful, to be thankful for the countless benefits and comfortable living.
Today I resolve to live it with zeal, and to make it pleasurable for myself and others.
I determine to meet today’s problems as a challenge. I take up my responsibilities with cheerfulness and enthusiasm.
Think and Talk about good things.
When you talk about your troubles, your ailments, your diseases, your hurts, you give longer life to what makes you unhappy. Talking about your grievances merely adds to those grievances. Think and talk only about the good things that add to your enjoyment of your work and life. If you don’t talk about your grievances, you will be delighted to find them disappearing.
The most unhappy of all men is he who believes himself to be so.
We always respect the opinion of others when it helps to affirm ours.
The journey of a thousand miles begins with just one step
Bring all forces of good together –Swami Vivekananda
Be noble in every thought and every deed.
The victories of truth have never been won without risks
Look before you leap , see before you go.

Always Laugh
Always laugh when you can; it is a cheap medicine. Merriment is a philosophy not well understood. It is the sunny side of existence.
The quote from True Religion always Help
These teachings to the entrant into worldly life emphasize the solemn duty of raising a family, caring for one’s welfare and consciousness. These in fact cover the normal urges and duties of a human being for enjoyment and advancement in this world, which, for fulfillment. Must be pursued according to the percepts of true religion.
Now to meet the requirement of life in the world we need to earn money. And in this too, religion is our friend. Even today honesty is the best policy in the world. He who earns his bread policy in the world. He who earns his bread through honest labour may not amass huge wealth, but he will not be dogged by anxiety and feat of exposure. He will have an inner strength which cannot be purchased with money. Those who earn cheap money, unrighteous money, not only constantly face the risk of exposure, but before they realize it, the money itself may have vanished end all further avenues of earning closed to them .
A man with a sense of hounour and dignity knows the at it is the man who makes the money not money the man. And this sense of dignity is more abiding if it springs from religion.
One without such a background thinks that it is money that makes the man and hence will do anything for money. All such will eventually suffer.

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

Acquire Emotional Intelligence

Monday 8 –May- 2010
Acquire Emotional Intelligence
All of us fight or argue with our brothers, sisters, friends, parents and life partners too. We may find ourselves in a similar situation at our place of work. Sometimes such an embarrassing situation is intentional, and sometimes unintentional . However controlled we are, everyone’s emotions go hay wire from time to time and force us to behave in undesirable ways. But we can actually train our brain to keep our emotions at bay. What we need is a boost in our emotional intelligence quotient (EQ) It helps us measure our ability to identify, assess, and mange our emotions as well as others’. If we are able to achieve it, we can understand ourselves better and care for ourselves and enjoy happier and healthier relationships, Most of the time we lay the blame at someone else’s door; instead, we should try to re-align our feelings and emotions. This would certainly boost our feel-good quotient.
When we accost people, we frequently ask questions out of habit without really caring about the answer. As we speed by people we ask questions such as “How are you?” ”How is it going?” etc. We wont even wait or pause a moment for an answer. Instead , we must hone our empathetic skills by asking a question you want to know the answer to. When we ask, we must look the other person in the eye and wait for a reply . The other person will certainly feel that you are genuinely interested , and will answer promptly and will also perhaps ask how you’re doing. The result is you will develop more satisfying relationships with those around you.
In our day-to-day lives we find ourselves in situations that really upset us. The irritant may be close to us or a vendor in market. According to Maurice Jesse Elias, a psychologist who coauthored Educating People to be Emotionally intelligent, we must take time to reflect on why and on how we reacted and then work on concrete ways to stay calm. First we notice our voice goes up when our temper flares. So we should try to drop it from’ out of control’ to ‘upset’ level and ‘absolutely under control’ level. If we do so, we can control ourselves. We can achieve this with practice. The easiest way is to be observant of people around us in different tight spots and their reaction. Certainly, this teaches us invaluable lessons as to how we should be or, shouldn’t be.
So try to be ‘emotionally efficient.
Mind cannot practice not to do; it can only practice what to do.
One object of Concentration
If you learn how to withdraw your attention from all objects of distraction and to place it upon one object of concentration, you too will know how to attract at will whatever you need. Pramhansa Yogananda
God Does Not Reward Or Punish You
God does not reward or punish you. He has given you the power to reward or punish yourselves by the use or misuse of your own reason and will power. If you transgress the laws of health, prosperity, and wisdom you must inevitably suffer from sickness, poverty, and ignorance.
The cultured give happiness wherever they go; the uncultured, whenever they go!
Old age comes with the passage of time. Maturity comes by deep reflection.
Sing the song of the secular to the sruti of the sacred and bring out the melody of life
Melancholy is the language of delusion. Joy is the music of truth.
Each day comes bearing its gifts. Unite the ribbons.
A Reminder From God
I was regretting the past and fearing the future. Suddenly , I heard God speaking. “My name is “I AM’. He paused . I waited. He continued, “When you live in the past with its mistakes and regrets, it is hard for you because I am not there. My name is not “I WAS’.
“When you live in the future with its unknowns and fears, it is hard for you because I am not there. My name is not “I WILL BE’, “But when you live in this moment, it is not hard, because I am here. My name is ‘I AM”.
Money
If money is possessed by man there is a charm
If money is posses by money there is all herm
People worship money not out of servitude but out of gratitude.
They regarded it as Goddess Lakshmi
Quite natural it is
For, money has helped them in so money ways!

Quote from True Religion always Helps
Righteousness that springs from love of God and from the yearning for continuing in His love is indestructible. This is the fountain of true religion , which expresses itself in life as truthfulness, purity, self-control, non-violence, forbearance, compassion, equanimity, detachment, other-regard , straightforwardness, and longing for liberation or enlightenment.
Whoever we may be whatever our situation in life, religion always stand by and sustains us. Not only that, if we pass away before attaining enlightenment, true religion carries over to us in the next life the merits earned by us in this life.
Religion is not eh friend of one life alone; it is our eternal friend, even in life after death.

Let The Rose Grow Within You

Let The Rose Grow Within You
Once a man planted a rose plant and watered it regularly. One day, he saw a bud appearing on the plant. Suddenly he felt that the bud cannot blossom into a beautiful flower as the plant is infested with thorns all over. He was so saddened and despaired that he stopped watering the plant. Soon it died..
The simple tale has a lot to do with us. Very few of us realize that thee is a rose within us. The God-like sweet qualities are implanted in our hearts when we are born. They grow amid the thorns of our faults. When we look at ourselves and others we see only faults beyond mending. We despair, thinking that nothing good can possibly be found in and around us. We totally neglect or fail to find the hidden goodness in us and we never realize our own latent potential to improve an change ourselves.
Sometimes we need someone else to show what we are. One of the greatest gifts we possess is our ability to overcome the thorns within us and find our own good ‘self’. This is the chief characteristic of love, which helps us look at the persons, knowing their faults, recognize their nobility and help them to overcome their faults. If we show them the rose, they can conquer the thorns. Hence it is our duty to help others by showing their roses and not merely their thorns. Only then it is possible to develop harmony among people around us.
(From Inspiration Quote)
Harmonizing One’s Thoughts and Speech, the Principal Practice. Quote from essence of Gita
The chief practice for this is to make our thoughts and speech agree with one another . Sir Ramakrishna used to say that real spiritual practice consist of making our thought and speech one. If we make our thoughts and speech the same and pray to God, won’t He answer our prayer? Remember the story of Dhruva; In the forest he prayed to God after making his thoughts and speech one. There was none to help him; he didn’t even have the help of a teacher. Because he had made his thoughts and speech one, God gave him a teacher and blessed him with His vision. Once we make our thoughts and speech identical, God will provide us with whatever we need. Even in the Gita , Sri Krishna tells us; “Make your thoughts and speech one.”
Humour in Life
Once a farmer awakened his hired hand just before Sunrise. They dressed up and then had breakfast. When the breakfast was over the hired hand said, “How about having lunch right now. We can save time by finishing it now. Then we wont have to stop work at all at noon. What do you say?’’
The farmer thought the idea was worth a try, so then and there they ate their lunch.
Then the hired hand said , ‘if we eat our supper now, we can work straight through till it’s dark why don’t we do that?’
The farmer thought that sounded good, too, so they immediately sat down to “Supper”.
When the meal was finished the hired man began taking off his shoes.
“What are you doing now?’ there farmer asked.
“Well”, said the hired hand, “I always go to bed right after supper”.
All things which have a soul, change and possess in themselves more according to the law and to the order of destiny.

Where is Happiness?

Monday, 12, October-2009
Where is Happiness?
Every day, everywhere seeks happiness, it is true. But finding it and keeping it seems difficult to do. Difficult because we think that happiness is found only in the places where wealth and fame abound.
And so we go on searching in “Palaces of pleasure” seeking recognition and monetary treasure, unaware that happiness is just a “state of mind”. Within the reach of everyone who takes time to be kind.
For in making others happy we will be happy, too. For the happiness you give away return to “shine on you”.
Happiness comes fro goodness in life
Possession does not provide happiness. It may even stimulate appetite for more and more and more. A new car every year. Woolen coats and pearl necklaces are beautiful to look at and delightful to possess. But they do not make even the possessor happy, except perhaps for a moment. But simple goodness does make for happiness. Happiness comes from goodness in life.
Art of Listening
Here are ten points that one must take care to do in order to develop the art of listening
 Be listener-centered instead of self-centered.
 Try to evaluate what the other speaker is saying. Curd negative emotional reactions to what you hear.
 Do not allow your feelings about the person who is talking to you influence your judgment. It breaks the rules of good listening.
 Never daydream when you are listening. Always be on guard against letting your mind wader during the conversation.
 Beware of being the type of listener who sits on edge and is ready to jump in and provide the answers rather than to stand by to ask more questions.
 When the person is speaking to you, do not let your mind work to figure out how you can disagree with him.
 While the speaker is talking, never pretend you are just listening. If you let your mind wander, the person speaking to you is the first to detect it.
 Beware of setting yourself up as an unsympathetic listener at the mention of such things as religion, nationally or political preference.
 Do not be a restless listener. Be calm and relaxed.
 Beware of becoming what you might call an open mouth listener, one who must say something each time the speaker stops to catch his breath.
-Inspirational Quote.
Alcohol is harmful
Many people suffer from illusions about the effects of alcohol. medical Science has conclusive evidence to show that these beliefs are baseless.
Alcohol does not warm you up on a cold night. By dilating blood vessels alcohol produces false sense of warmth but in reality impairs regulatory mechanisms and makes you more prone to catching cold.
Alcohol does not sharpen appetite. In fact it reduces appetite and desire for essentials foodstuffs and thus leads to malnutrition.
Moderate intake of alcohol too is harmful. The development of liver disease is not proportional to the amount of alcohol taken, even small intake of alcohol can lead to cirrhosis.
Alcohol does not increase sexual pleasure and performance. Its leads to decreased levels of male hormone thereby leading to decreased sexual pleasure and performance. –(Courtesy; Ministry of Social Welfare)
Whatever you see is thins world is but the glory of God. All fear of this world will disappear the moment you realize Him..
Peace is a condition of mind brought about by the serenity of soul. Lasting peace can come only to peaceful people.
Two things are necessary for the salvation of men: to know what he ought to desire and to know what he ought to do.
It is said that there is a particular time for everything to happen, one cannot go against that and make things that and make things happen.

Smile Please

Monday, 28 ,September-2009
Smile Please
A smile costs nothing, but gives much. It enriches those who receive, without making poorer those who give. It takes but a moment, but the memory of it sometimes lasts forever. None is so rich or mighty that he can get along without it, and none is so poor that he can be made rich by it. A smile creates happiness in the family , fosters goodwill in business , and is the countersign of friendship . it brings rest to the weary, cheer to the discouraged, sunshine to the sad, and it is nature’s antidote for trouble. Yet it cannot bought, begged, borrowed or stolen, for it is something that is of no value to anyone until it is given away. Some people are too tired to give you a smile. Give them one of yours, as none needs a smile so much as he who has no more to give.
Is Someone Happier?
Is someone happier because you passed his way today? Did you bring a smile to a clouded face when you did not turn away? Is someone’s burden lighter for just a little lift, a pleasant word, a little boost, or perhaps some little gift? Do you feel content and happy when you settle down at night because you found a troubled friend and helped to set him right? A load is always lighter when a friend walks by your side. You cannot cure all ills, but at least you know, you tried. Let not one single day go by at home at work, at play unless someone is happier because you passed his way.
Work is Worship
In everything we make, create and produce there is an invisible ingredient, and this makes the difference between the better and the best, the ordinary and the extraordinary, the good and the excellent. The invisible ingredient is devotion. Any work can become a prayer if performed with the sacredness of devotion. If yo had all the money in the world would you still be doing the same work that you are doing right now? If your answer is ‘Yes’ then you are pursuing the right work. Else, kick the work that does not give you a kick. Find work that give you inner expression and you will find happiness in it. Make the world recognize this inner expression of your and you will find success through it. Be grateful to the work you do and you will move closer to God with it. Let the effects of the work you do be the signature you leave behind in this world.
The easiest way to live happily is to live honestly.
