Be fearless.
Do not be afraid
even if a thunderbolt
were to land on your head.
Death comes
only once and not twice.
It is bound to come
on one day or the other.
So, do not be afraid of death.
Be ready for anything.
Do not be afraid to follow Truth.
Fill your life with Love.
Only then will your life be sanctified.

The great question of all questions...
The great question of all questions
at the present time is this:
Taking for granted that the known
and the knowable are bounded on both
sides by the unknowable and the infinitely unknown,
why struggle for that infinite unknown?
Why shall we not be content with the known?
Why shall we not rest satisfied with eating,
drinking and doing a little good to society?
This idea is in the air.
From the most learned professor
to the prattling baby, we are told
to do good to the world, that is all of religion,
and that it is useless to trouble ourselves about
questions of the beyond.
So much is this the case
that it has become a truism.
But fortunately we must
inquire into the beyond.
This present, this expressed,
is only one part of that unexpressed.
The sense universe is,
as it were, only one portion,
one bit of that infinite spiritual
universe projected into the plane
of sense consciousness.
How can this little bit
of projection be explained,
be understood, without knowing that which is beyond?

Lead a happy and peaceful life...
Always be happy and peaceful.
Live like members of the same family
with love and affection.
Do not be weighed down by
petty difficulties and suffering.
Do not give scope to any worry.
Even if your wife or children
suffer from a disease, do not get perturbed.
Go back to your places with firm faith that
everything will turn out to be good.
Lead a happy and peaceful life.
There is no medicine more efficacious than love.
That is the most powerful medicine.

Heart diseases are always due to 'hurry, curry and worry!'....
We should never eat indiscriminately.
Steam boiled food is very much conducive
to our health whereas people prefer fast foods
where crisp and hot oil fried items are supplied
with hot side dishes.
Though it may be attractive
to the tongue and nose, it spoils our health.
Why rush to the Doctor when we can prevent
such problems with our 'simple food habits".
Hence always eat 'steam boiled food" and
do not go for "oil fried items. It has also been
emphasized that heart diseases are due to
"hurry, curry and worry".
We can definitely avoid all the above and lead a healthy life

When you get angry, you act as if you are possessed by an evil spirit... your face becomes uglly and frightful...
One need to realize this,
only by intense spiritual discipline,
that is not marred by anger, envy and greed...
the vices that sprout from the ego.
When you get angry,
you act as if you are
possessed by an evil spirit.
Your face becomes ugly and frightful.
Heed that signal,

Do not give free vent to wicked vocabulary.
Envy and greed also emanate
from the ego and have to be carefully
watched and controlled.
Like the tadpole's tail,
the ego will fall away
when one grows in wisdom.
Develop wisdom, discriminate
and know the ephemeral nature of all objective things.

Some say knowledge is valuable,

One may be a learned scholar,
one may hold high positions of authority,
one may be very wealthy or be an eminent scientist
but if one has no character, all the other acquisitions are of no use at all.

Gifts of Love
Love is a gift from God to man.
Obedience is a gift from Master to man.

One who loves desires the will of the Beloved.
One who obeys does the will of the Beloved.
One who surrenders knows nothing but the will of the Beloved.
Love seeks union with the Beloved.
Obedience seeks the pleasure of the Beloved.
Surrender seeks nothing.
One who loves is the lover of the Beloved.
One who obeys is the beloved of the Beloved.
One who surrenders has no existence other than the Beloved.
Greater than love is obedience.

It may not be possible to escape the consequences of one's good and bad actions. But even a mountain of sin can be wiped out by winning the Grace of the Divine. Hence one should strive to earn the love of God, which is all-embracing and all-powerful.

Post 880.. The fire of sorrow and joy burns when the fuel of impulses is fed into the furnace of the mind...
The fire of sorrow and joy burns when the fuel of impulses is fed into the furnace of the mind. Take away the fuel and the fire dries out. Take away the force of impulses, promptings and urges and you become your own master.
An attitude of generosity, of fortitude in the presence of sorrow and loss, a spirit of enthusiasm to do good, to be of service to the best of one's capacity - these build up the mind as well as the body. Practice the attitude of joy when others are joyful and of grief when others around you are grieved. Let your heart move in sympathy. But, the joy and grief have to be translated into service; they should not be mere emotions.

Life is a mosaic of pleasure and pain -
grief is an interval between
two moments of joy.
Peace is the interlude between two wars.
You have no rose without a thorn;
the diligent picker will avoid the pricks
and gather the flowers.
There is no bee without the sting; cleverness
consists in gathering the honey nevertheless.
Troubles and travails
will haunt you. But you must not allow
them to deflect you from the
path of duty and dedication.
The world today is afflicted with
anxiety, fear, depression, hatred, greed and suspicion.
The only way
the world can be set right is for man
to realise his high destiny;
for every man yearns for two boons -
attainment of joy and escape from sorrow.

Do not count your tears of pain, do no pour over your grief...
Do not count your tears of pain;
do not pour over your grief.
Let them pass through your mind,
as birds fly through the sky,
leaving no trail behind, or as flames and floods
appear on the screen in a picture house,
without affecting the screen.
Give up in order to gain;
restrain in order to receive;
sacrifice, so that you may be saved.
You have to sacrifice your animality,
the beastly lust and greed, hate and malice.
Sacrifice these and you earn the heaven of un-flinching peace.
If you analyze the difference
between God and man, you will find
that life plus desire is man and life minus desire is God.

Sow in the field of your heart the seeds of good thoughts,
charged with humility; irrigate with waters of love;
protect the growing crop with fertilizer concentration;
then the plants of devotion will yield the harvest of the eternal wisdom,
that you are He, and when that revelation comes, you become He,
for, you were always He, though you did not know it so far.
Invitations are sent out, bands strike music,
flags are hung, guests are fed, announcements are made -
all with the intention of having many witnesses
for the marriage of the groom with the bride.
So too, festivals, holy days, vows, rites, pilgrimages,
fasts, are all to invoke the blessings of the good and
the Godly upon the marriage of the Soul with the over soul.

Courage is the tonic for getting both

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.

Any amount of development in scientific,

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.

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.

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."
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....
Tomorrow is a stranger...
Now is the 'present'!

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..

you do not consider them as sins.

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.

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...

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
