Arrogance, the one quality we must avoid at any cost.
However much we are gifted, never pride yourself.
It is really the ego which spin the web
of illusion around your pure soul.
Once the web thickens,
then there is only darkness inside,
Any amount of light outside the web
can not illuminate the soul inside caught in the web.
Hence beware of the Ego,
which entices you into believing
that the ego really care for us.
It is a false phantom.
It is just like a parasite.
Ego needs a body to thrive,
a mind to play lulluby to it.
Enquire into its real identity.
It fleds away. The real identity
is that of the SELF.
Ego really assume the role
of the self and misguide us
into treachery and treson.
Why fall prey to its pleadings.
Remain strong intellectually
and stand on your ground which is the Self.
None can harm you any more.
March forward like lion cubs in the jungle of life.
Be moving till you reach your final goal.

Do not let the small ups and downs of life make you love your journey any lesser..
Do not let the small ups
and downs of life make you
love your journey any lesser.
Realize, My child, that
every defeat in life has a purpose -
Yes! It is that of a bigger success,
at some stage ahead.
Success is not the final win,
My child, but it is the balance
with which one is able to meet with any end result.
Depressions come in life,
only when one makes his desire
of being happy an obsession.
Happiness is not in what one
becomes or receives in life,
but it is the strength, where one
stays to be the self, alone.
Hence, do not make life the restless run -
but rise above it with purity and perch
yourself at the highest point,
where one sees the beauty of life
with the clearest vision.
The perfection of life can never
be attained by desires - hence,
do not put the undue pressure
on the self by wanting from it, continuously.
Life is the best, when one finds
the strength to accept it the way it comes to you!

Moodiness is nothing but the state of mental laziness..
Unable to face the ups and downs
of life's changes, one becomes moody in nature.
Moodiness is nothing but the state of mental laziness.
When one begins to lose the strength of his heart,
he breaks the link that allows the mind to focus upon the heart's strength.
When the mind loses its focus,
it, suddenly, has no direction.
It begins to lose its own strength
in the chaos of unsettling thoughts.
When the thoughts consume life
and try to give the self its direction,
one finds himself walking in all directions,
with no goal and no inspiration.
In such a state, one experiences a vacuum -
Yes! An emptiness, in which one lives
without the love for his own self!
In such moments, one expresses himself
by short outbursts of anger -
then sometimes by bitterness,
and other times, by remorse, repentance and self-pity!

Be yourself always..
Be yourself, always
No matter what fear may bring
The wheel of life will only turn
You, My child, must see the center
Of that circle that never travels
To the whims of time and fate
Embrace all that comes as love
And release the fears that bind you to wish
Let all the pretenses fall
And rise to play life's every role
With the wisdom of the one reality
- the one truth
And in this wondrous experience of
love and truth
Find the peace of your own self.
Be yourself, always
Then only will you realize, O Love
That God lives
In you
As the simple sweet truth!
Yes! God expresses His Divine Will
Only when you find the courage
To be only you! Only you! Only you!
For only in the real you
Is the Divine presence!

Arthur Ashe, the legendary Wimbledon player was dying of AIDS which he got due to infected blood he received during a heart surgery in 1983.
From world over, he received letters from his fans, one of which conveyed: "Why does GOD have to select you for such a bad disease"?
To this, Arthur Ashe replied:
The world over -- 5 crore children start playing tennis, 50 lakh learn to play tennis, 5 lakh learn professional tennis, 50,000 come to the circuit, 5000 reach the grand slam, 50 reach Wimbledon, 4 to semi final, 2 to the finals, When I was holding a cup I never asked GOD " Why me?".
So today in pain I should not be asking GOD.......... "Why me?"

The Lord came to me like a dream one day and asked....'why do you sorrow?'
The Lord came to me like a dream one day and asked,
why do you sorrow I answered, Lord my life is so full of pain,
I canʼt face one more tomorrow.
The Lord sat down beside me, and gently took my hand.
He said, Let me explain to you and then youʼll understand.
Each sorrow is a stepping stone you must surmount each day,
And every stepping stone you climb is a sorrow thatʼs passed away.
The road of life is a mountainside, with crevices in which to be caught,
But as you struggle on your way, I, the Rock, will lend support.
Every stepping stone you climb, makes spirit and heart grow strong.
Exercising character and faith this road seems painful and long.
The way is paved with stepping stones, to uplift your heart and soul,
Though difficult they aid your way, to a City paved with gold.
I know that you are tired, for I too have walked this way,
My sorrows did they multiply, but I cleared the stones away.
I left my rock to lift you up, I left behind my story.
To give you strength to make your climb, to that special place in glory.
And never fear, the Rock is here, Youʼll never climb alone
Surmount lifeʼs sorrows, continue on,
For they are but stepping stones.

When anger comes, let it go...before it erupts..
When anger comes, let it go.
Let it go, before it erupts.
Like hot lava, that leaves everything bare.
Anger travels from your mind
Into the gaze of your eyes,
Into the words of your lips,
Into the acts of your hands.
It intoxicates you,
it weakens you emotionally.
It tires you physically
And drains you of your energy.
It makes you hurt others.
It fills fear in your children
And creates unhappiness
Within you and to all around.
Then why do you welcome it?
Shut the doors to anger.
Do not let it enter in your thoughts.
If it does, close your eyes.
Be determined not to allow to it to travel further.
Be victorious and take control of your senses.
You are it's master.
Know that and act on it thereby.

All physical ailments are directly related, to the state of your mind..
All physical ailments are directly related,
To the state of your mind.
Your body is in tune with your true nature within.
When your mind gets diseased,
With anger, jealousy, fear and worries,
The body becomes unbalanced too.
The more restless your mind,
The more the body suffers.
To cure your physical pains,
You must cure the pains in your mind.
You must dismiss and erase painful thoughts
That arise within you.
To do this, faith in God is necessary.

Do not dwell upon the wrong, open the keen eye and seek the way out of the wrong..
Do not dwell upon the wrong -
open the keen eye and seek the way out of the wrong.
Have faith, My child,
that the Sweet Lord
that has given you the love to stay
by the right will give you the grace
to recognize it, always.
Never attempt to protect a wrong,
even if it means that one, himself,
has to face complete humiliation.
Learn, My child, that in admitting one's own faults,
one only rises - never fails - never falls!
Do not be discouraged,
if the world laughs at your spiritual madness.
The one that has chosen God
must leave all ties that bind him
to be conscious of his worldly identity!

Do not believe, immediately,
to what the eyes see and the ears hear.
Use the power of the intellect
and continuously discriminate and analyze,
completely, and only give the appropriate response with calmness.
Never give way to anger -
if one feels his loss of inner control,
one must stay away from the scene of the battle,
until he regains his own stability.
How can one defend himself,
when he is shaking with the inner attack of his own pride?
Do not fear the evil, My child - fear,
when you are not able to rise above the evil
with the strength of your knowledge of the absolute right.
Evil is only untrue - hence,
never give it the attention nor
the importance that allows it to survive.
Realize that evil only instigates - only threatens.
Call its bluff and stand before it with courage.
Let it not manipulate you, anymore,
and allow you to inflict its illusionary power
to destroy the reality of the self.

Spirituality is the science of right living, it is not a part-time affair and neither is life..
Spirituality is the science of right living;
it is not a part-time affair and neither is life.
Therefore no spiritual aspirant
can afford to deny or ignore spiritual principles.
If we want to have peace and joy all the time,
then we have to orientate our life towards this goal.
This may appear to be an insurmountable feat,
but one can reach the heights of spiritual bliss by taking one step at a time.

The tao of eating...
We should always sit down while we are eating.
We should not stand or walk when we eat.
Eat in a happy, calm and quiet atmosphere.
Never eat when angry, depressed, bored or upset.
Do not watch television or listen to radio while eating
Do not talk while eating. Simply concentrate on each morsel and enjoy it.
Eat in moderation, only as much as your body needs.
One must regulate the intake of solid food so as to fill 50% of the stomach.
25% of stomach can be filled with liquids and the remaining 25% is to be kept empty
for the free movement of air within the stomach.
One who eats one complete meal a day is a healthy person
One who eats two complete meals a day is a connoisseur
One who eats three complete meals a day is a sick person
One who eats four complete meals a day is a greedy person
Not even a morsel of the food we eat
is made purely by our own effort.
What comes to us in the form of food
is the result of the toil of many people,
nature's bounty, and God's compassion.
So we should never eat anything
without first praying with humility and gratitude.
While eating, if we imagine that our beloved God
is present within us, and that we are feeding Him.
This will make eating or feeding an act of worship.
As often as possible, the family should eat together.
Do not waste food
