Courage is the tonic for getting both
physical as well as mental health and strength.

Give up doubt, hesitation and fear.
Man by means of the inner divine strength
with which he is equipped, can achieve any thing.

The chief source of bliss is dedication to God;
nothing else can give the genuine and lasting joy.

You do not know how to make
an ornament out of gold, so you give it to a smith.

Why worry if he melts it
and beats it and pierces it and
pulls it into wire and twists it and cuts it?

Let him who knows the art,
shape the child into an ornament of society, do not worry.

The progress of the universe is interlinked with the progress of man...

The progress of the universe is
interlinked with the progress of man.

Any amount of development in scientific,
economic and social spheres will not be
of much use without mental transformation.

How can we bring about this transformation?
It is by keeping in check one's passions and emotions.

Since mental tension is most detrimental to man's health,
man should learn the art of controlling his passions and emotions,
which cause stress and strain.

Man should make an earnest endeavour
to lead a serene and pure life. He should realise
the truth that troubles and turmoil are temporary, like passing clouds.

There is no scope for agitations
to arise if one realises this truth.

One who realises this truth will not
allow his mind to be swayed by the passions of anger, cruelty, etc.

Goodness, compassion, tolerance....

Goodness, compassion, tolerance – through these
virtues one can perceive the Divinity in oneself
and in others.

Softness of heart is often
condemned as weakness, cowardice and want of
intelligence; they say that the heart has to be
hardened against pity and charity, but that way
lies war, destruction and downfall.

Love alone
confers lasting happiness and peace. Sharing can
alone reduce grief and multiply joy. People are
born to share, to serve, to give and not to grab.

Illusions...

We speak of the sky
and the ocean as being blue in colour,
but this is incorrect.

Neither the sky nor the ocean
are actually blue themselves.
It is the vastness of space and
the depth of the ocean that
produces this illusion of blueness.

If you take some seawater in your palm,
you will see that it is actually colourless.
Likewise, good and evil depend on our own thoughts and feelings.

Difference of opinion must be like the 2 eyes, each giving a different picture of the same subject...both of which coordinated to give a complete pic

Difference of opinion must be like the two eyes, each giving a different picture of the same object; both of which, when coordinated give a complete rounded picture. It is no use indulging in arguments and disputations; he who clamors aloud has not grasped the Truth, believe Me. Silence is the only language of the realized.

Those who know will not speak; those who speak do not know, can not know. It is the ignorant man who argues loudly and angrily and talks cynically. The wise man will pause before judging; he will see all sides of the problem, relate it to his own experience and hesitate to accept it or condemn it. He will hear less and taste more.

It is foolishness to brood over mishaps and mistakes once committed and punish yourself for them...

It is foolishness to brood over
mishaps and mistakes once committed
and punish yourself for them.
What is good of ill-treating the body
for the sake of correcting the mind?

Never brood over the past;
when grief overpowers,
you do not recollect similar incidents
in your past experience and
add to the sum of your grief;
recollect rather incidents
when grief did not knock at your door,
but you were happy instead.

Draw consolation and strength
from such memories and raise yourself
above the surging waters of sorrow.

The more impure the thoughts, the more one indulges in weak actions...

It is easier to face and resolve the toughest stiuation rather than to silently carry the burden of its worry!

Make the one friendship in your life, Yes, the one with your conscience and then remain loyal to it, forever!

Do not be affected by the body's aging, keep the mind light and the heart tender and innocent!

The greatest love is experienced by the biggest sacrifice....

Fight against bad thoughts and bad deeds...

"Fight against bad thoughts and bad deeds,
Run away from bad company and join good company.
Develop good thoughts, good feelings,
and undertake good actions and attain Divinity."

Those who live in differences will bear the assault of their own egos and wil torment their lives in anger and hatred..

Sometimes, in simply listening to another's pain, once gives the other the peace to seek the light of hsi own inner guidance..

You are the maker of all, and the taker of nothing...

Love love love..

Love love love, there is always love, full of love...

Behind every virtue,
lies the backbone of love.
Truth is important in a relationship of love.

You cannot lie or be deceitful,
for your love also becomes a lie.
Behind patience, also, lies the foundation of love.

Why else would you bear or endure,
if there is no love?

You forgive the faults of someone close,
only because of love. You are humble,
because you want to please the one you love.
You will want to give away the best you have, only out of love.

Even if one hurts you,
you will not hurt back and
you will swallow the anger and pride, only out of love.

Try to love, want to love,
for love will make you a better person.
Your virtues are the compartments that follow the engine of love.

Look, don't be prisoners of the past...

My friends, don't be a prisoner of the past..
Some people are always dwelling on their disappointments...
They just can't understand why their prayers aren't answered...
why their financial problems were still there...
and why they were ill treated or mistreated...

They don't realize the power of negative sayings..
They don't realize that they are allowing their past..
to poison their future..

God has a new beginning in store for all..
and restore what's been stolen, but they won't let go of hate..
They don't want to let go of their miseries...
They don't want to let go of their past...

Unfair things might have happened to you...
Make a decision that you are quiting reliving those...
Make a decision to quit from remembering those memories...
Instead, think on good things that will build you up once again...

Forgive the people who have hurt or mistreat you...
Rid yourself off the feelings of bitterness or regrets...
And forget and forgive them and yourself...
Quit looking back... strive forward, that is what we are going to do...

The past is a guest, tomorrow is a stranger...

The past is a guest...
Tomorrow is a stranger...
Now is the 'present'!

God and us should live in the present..
Most of us dwell in our past..
Running the present worrying about the future...
Worrying ourselves out and feeling depressed....

Everybody goes through disappointments...
and setbacks from time to time...
but if we hold on to hurt and pain...
we end up living negative and bitter lives...

Maybe we have made some mistakes...
Maybe we have made some poor choices...
and now you are tempted to sit around and feeling guilt..
and condemned thinking something such as..

"I wish I had been more careful.."
"I wish I had chosen another career.."
"I wish I had married that other person.."
"I wish I had been a better parent..'

It is so easy to live life focused on that reviewed mirror..
We can't do anything about the past...
and we have no guarantees regarding the future..
But we can do something for ourselves right now.....

Right now, shape up and look good...
Right now, take a deep breathe and smile...
Right now, start your studies and get going....
Right now, plan your work and work your plan....

Remember, universal love is the answer to all....

Who isnt a sinner? All of us are...

Sometimes, somehow, somewhere....
we committed mistakes, small or big...
Our flesh is weak, our mind sometimes unsettled...
Yet it is still our choice to be or not to be...
It is still our choice to continue or not to...

Happy are those who realize one's sins...
Happy are those who really care for their souls..
What had happened have happened...
And our God is forever forgiving us...
But we should be sincere and getting nearer to our goals...

A step a day, we walk our spiritual journey...
No one can walk that for us...no one..
It is just us, just you and me... just everybody..
To be fully responsible for what we did...
To be fully realized and not to repeat the same mistakes...

God knows our intention...
God knows our weaknesses...
God loves to know that we are repending...
God knows everything about us...
There is nothing to hide at all, yes nothing to hide at all...

Be courageous, be faithful... it is really not easy...
But no matter how, the decision need to be made...
For the better or for the worst..
God loves us all and provides us with this wisdom..
And all will turn out safe and sound, happy and blissful...

One should exercise control over the senses... and see that one do not repeat our mistakes...

Though you are committing many sins,
you do not consider them as sins.
You think that they are quite natural to human beings.
You keep committing mistakes, '
yet you pray for pardon.

Actually, one should never seek
pardonfor the mistake committed.
One should beprepared to undergo the punishment.
Only then can one be free from defects.

When a person commits
a serious offence, he is put in a jail.
He is released only after he undergoes
the punishment for the required period.

Likewise, if you want redemption,
you should atone for your sins and
be prepared to face punishment for your mistakes.

You should exercise control over
the senses and see that you do not repeat your mistakes.

Good students of life recognize real mentors...

Good students at school will recognize
good teachers being reasonable and good...
Bad students at school will complain
good teachers being unreasonable and bad...

That's for sure...
Because bad students hate to be disciplined
and scolded for their mistakes....
so it is just as natural that someone call you undisciplined....

Wisdom...

Wisdom is only obtained through defeating the inner foes of lust, anger, greed, attachments, pride and jealousy....

Have no thorn of hate in your mind..

Have no thorn of hate in your mind...
Develop love towards all...

Desire is a storm, greed is a whirlpool,
Pride is a precipice, attachment is an avalanche,
Egoism is a volcano!

Keep these things away, so that you can
enjoy undisturbed in your heart...
Then there is warm sunshine and cool breeze!

And the gurgling waters of contentment
will feed the roots of faith in your heart...

The power of intention, we are intended to be happy, positive, joyful, successful, stress-free, peaceful, kind, selfless, honest and loving...

All weaker thinkers need reconditioning of their mind, for the better... for a newer more positive person who we are intended to be...

All weaker thinking people will feel defeated before actually going into the battle fields of challenges...

All weaker thinking people will feel defeated before actually going into the battle fields of challenges, thus proving themselves a failure... nobody else say so, it is they themselves who feel so lost. And there are so many types of eagles... if you know what I mean.. Perhaps not even an eagle, just a big chicken... haha

So, never fear tests of any kind... go for it with confidence and faith that you can do it! And be tested to be STRONG!

Strength is real strength only when put into test...

Post 838... Know the direction of your heart, only then you won't be lost...

Where your life's goals are, your heart and your actions should be there too...

Only with our best attitude that we can climb to higher aptitude to succeed, so make sure that we possess them...

Everyone has goals of life, be it small or big..
Everyone wish to achieve our goals of life, be it small or big...
Coming to realize that one needs to polish one's attitude...
Coming to realize that one needs to possess good attitude...

Thus only with our best attitude,
that we can climb to higher levels..
To succeed, thus make sure that..
we possess our best attitude...

A good yield needs time and favourable environment to produce...

When we didnt see any results...
When we only see small results...
When we havent seen any bigger results...
What can be the reason behind that?

There is nothing of anything
to complain or grumble of who
and what or how we are now...
Why fear when we have been doing the correct thing?

Always remember that
there is this growing process
that all of us have to face..
soon the maturing stage will come..

Sow only good seeds... only then it will bear good fruits...

What we do now will be
reflected in the days to come...
thus sow only good seeds,
only then they will bear good fruits...

These fruits will be then so sweett...
These fruits will be then so satisfying...
And the seeds are ready to be replanted again...
And happiness and sunshine will always be there...
for you and for all...

Post 833...Realize this miracle.. you will always get what you really want, provided they are with good intention and vision...

Realize this miracle..
you will always get what you really want,
provided they are with good intention and vision...

It might be just the law of attraction...
or the power of intention...
or if there is a will, there is a way...

Understand this...
Wish hard enough..
Be specific in what you really want...

Plant the law of patiecnce...
Plant the law of persistence...
Plant the law of LOVE...
this is the secret to success...

Prevention is so much better than cure.... a small leak is best repaired than to wait for the bursting dam...

As is the food, so is the mind...

"As is the food, so is the mind; As is the mind, so are the thoughts; As are the thoughts, so is the conduct; As is the conduct, so is the health.”

Love that begins to bargain loses its significance and worth...

He is truly a wise man, who knows that by which everything also is known...

“Only he is truly a wise man, who knows that by which everything else is known; And without knowing which, all else is not worth knowing, He is the knower of the Supreme Truth.”

Sins do not adhere to the man of devotion....

“Like the reflection that does not adhere to the mirror, Like the water on the lotus lead that is unattached to it, Sins do not adhere to the man of devotion.”

True love is the sweet fruit that grows out of the fragrant flower of good deeds...

Pure and selfless love towards all living beings,
considering everyone as embodiments of the Divine,
with no expectation of reward, is true Love.

With this attitude, when one regards divinity
as present in all beings, he experiences true love.

Whatever be the vicissitudes one may face,
whatever be the personal sorrows and privations
one may undergo, true love will remain unaffected.

Today, the moment a difficulty arises,
love turns into hatred.

True love is the sweet fruit that
grows out of the fragrant flower of good deeds.

Love rules without recourse to the sword.
It binds without laws.

Only one who has such true love
can be described as human, for,
divine love is the basic quality of a true human being.

One is most happy when he does not ever seek it nor desire it!

Man should lead selfless lives....

Men should lead selfless lives.
This may seem difficult. But, in reality,
there is nothing easier than this.

It is selfishness that creates
all kinds of difficulties for man.

Selfless love gives no room for any evil.
Selfless love may meet with opposition
from one's kith and kin and from worldly persons.

But one should not be deterred by such opposition.
Love should be cherished as one's life breath.
Make love the basis for all your actions.

One has to acquire humility, activate discipline and a good character....

"Together with the knowledge of the natural sciences, one has to acquire humility, activate discipline and a good character."

Truth is realized that the spirit will experience true peace and contentment...

“Of what avail is it to be a scholar or clever intellectual, if one does not practice even a fraction of what one knows? Not all the luxuries and pleasures of the world will give man contentment and peace. Only when the Truth is realized that the Spirit will experience true peace and contentment.”

Back to nature...... so green so fresh.... smell the goodness of cool nature....

Learn from nature. Nature has been here ever since this place called the earth was born....

Post 820 Be at peace with one another.... to husband and wife, to siblings, to friends.... 'forgive and forget'

Life is too short to be aiming at each others' throat...
Life is too short to be spent at each others' wounds...

Treasure all where and when we still have time...
Treasure all where and when we are still living....

Keep you warm and close....

How cute they are... learn we must from Nature...

Most animals live in harmony with each other, you seldom see them arguing or fighting, unlike humans who argue and fight at the slightest provoke!
