Our body can be weak due to hunger or anger, but our spirit must not be weak...

 














Our spirit, our mental attitude, our emotional environment cannot be weak... Even when we face just any adversities or challenges that weaken our body....  The mastermind should be forever in the lead to what we are supposed to do and to be...

Anger must not be confronted with anger, but must be embraced with the strength to accept it and transform it to love...

Walk away, My dears, from the room 
where the heat waves of anger blow, 
and enter the room where the cool breeze 
of peace prevails. 

Anger must not be confronted with anger, 
but must be embraced with the strength to 
accept it and transform it to love. 

Know that anger, at first, may fight to live, 
but it will lose to the charm that love carries. 

The smile of peace will not come until the 
forehead is creased with frowns. 

Relax, and relieve yourselves from the 
stresses of fighting - the only fight that 
remains to be fought is yours with anger!

No, anger is not the scream of joyful victory, for its attack will always be responded to with a counter attack...

No! Anger is not the scream of joyful victory, 
for its attack will always be responded to with a counter attack. 

Anger will never settle an issue, 
it will only prolong the pain to become 
arguments that will remain indecisive 
and unfruitful in solving any problem. 

You have burnt in this fire for several births,
and it has brought you nothing but several deaths of the body, 
mental and physical ailments, sleepless nights and restless days,
and yet, like a child that cries when it is forbidden to play with fire, 
you, too, have burnt yourselves in this flame of anger, several times,
and cry with immature rebellion, when God forbid you to touch its flame, 
once again. 

Nothing can or nothing will destroy you more 
than this heat of rage, for once it is ignited, 
it consumes life, itself, for that moment, 
leaves you to stand staring at the face of the corpse - 
your very own reflection that depicts the death of divinity.


Live with the virtue of tolerance and patience that lies as the gift of life with only a few...

The moment anger strikes, think, 
what fear lies behind this temporary intoxication. 

Anger will never attain peace and 
will never end in the arms of joy! 
Then why must you fight with anger,
when it will bring with it nothing but 
the misery of a troubled mind and a painful heart. 

The one that is already intoxicated, 
needs the help of the one that is in control of his senses. 

So do not let the attack of the one 
that is already drunk with the toxins of anger,
instigate you to get drunk too! 

Age does not necessarily bring 
wisdom with it, so do not be aggravated 
when one witnesses the adult behaving 
like a child who has lost or broken his favorite toy. 

Live with the virtue of tolerance and 
patience that lies as the gift of life with only a few.

Rage will bring only chaos in the mind, fire to the senses, harshness in your speech and uncontrolled violence in your acts....

Rage will bring only chaos in the mind, 
fire to the senses, harshness in your speech 
and uncontrolled violence in your acts. 

Remember, God will never allow you 
to justify to Him any acts of anger, 
for under no circumstance, do God allow 
you to behave in this nonhuman, animal-like 
and passionate manner.

Each act of anger will bring with it 
several moments of repentance - 
the stream of bad memories that 
become difficult to erase. 

The victim that suffers from these 
painful outbursts may, eventually, 
learn to forgive and forget, but you, 
will be hounded and haunted by the scenes 
of terror that will make you shudder from your own acts of brutality.

Anger is the poisonous venom that spreads its death from the mind to the senses and from the senses to your actions...

"Anger" - the poisonous venom that 
spreads its death from the mind to the
senses and from the senses to your actions. 

Know that the seed of anger can be
curbed from its growth, right at the beginning stages,
by recognizing its evil, rejecting it, and draining its flow
in the gutters that will flow away from the pure nectar 
of stability and patience. 

Behind each act of anger, 
lies the secret of desire that cries 
in its fears of remaining unfulfilled.

True education is that which originates from the heart....

True education is that 
which originates from the heart. 

Heart is very important for human existence. 
When a child is born, the first thing that people 
observe is the heart beat. 

You should rely more on 
your spiritual heart than on the physical heart.
 
Conscience is another name 
for spiritual heart. Keep your heart pure. 
That should be your main endeavor.

One should not feel proud about the position one occupies...

One should not feel proud 
about the position one occupies. 
The strength derived from wealth 
or position is unreliable. 
Morality and purity of mind 
alone can confer real  strength.  
To  develop  these qualities, 
one  has  to take up selfless service. 
The spirit of  service  eradicates  
egoism  and  selfishness. 

In  the  process, not only is  your  
life sublimated, but the  nation  also 
gains through the example of
a dedicated servant of the public.”

Faith is essential for human progress in every field...

Faith is essential for human progress in every field. 
Knowledge, and hence, wisdom can be earned 
only by means of faith and effort. 
 
Equipped with these, man can scale 

great heights and emerge victorious. 
However, one has to be warned against 
cultivating too much faith in things that are merely material. 

 One has to root it
deep in the eternal Truth, God.

Faith is power. Without faith, living is impossible. 
We have faith in tomorrow following today. 

That is what makes us take up 
activities that extend beyond this day. People
with no faith cannot plan; they court misery by their want of faith.

Egoism is a thorny bush which when planted and fostered in one's heart, one has to pay the penalty..

Egotism is a thorny bush which, 
when planted and fostered in one's heart, 
one has to pay the penalty. 

Egotism makes enemies of fast friends 
and ruins many good causes and projects, 
for it does not allow two good men to work together. 

Grief follows it like a shadow. 
Where there is no ego, joy, peace, courage, 
co-operation and love flourish. 

When man is aware that the 
same Divine Consciousness that 
motivates him is equally motivating all others, 
then love ousts the ego into the background 
and takes charge of man's activities, words and thoughts.

Love should enable you to welcome even hardships as meant for your own good...

When you have malaria, 
you have to take bitter quinine medicine. 

That is the medicine 
needed to cure the ailment. 

Likewise, when adversity confronts you,
treat it as a medicine for your own good. 

Gold has to be melted and beaten to make a jewel. 
A diamond is cut to make it more brilliant. 

Likewise, troubles in life serve to refine a person. 
Love should enable you to welcome even 
hardships as meant for your own good.

Post 188, jealousy and hatred do more harm to those who entertain these feelings than to those towards whom these are expressed...

If a registered letter is addressed to some one, 
who declines to receive it, the postal department
will deliver it back to the sender. 
 
Similarly, if you criticise someone or hate somebody, 
if the other person remains unaffected and unperturbed, 
your criticism and hatred come back to you. 
 
Jealousy and hatred do more harm
to those who entertain these feeling 
than to those towards whom these are expressed.

Live to keep the conscience clean, for no other proof of purity is required...

Live to keep the conscience clean, 
for no other proof of purity is required. 
Be vigilant of any wrong that you may commit, 
and do not rest, until you have undergone 
every penance to correct this wrong to a right. 

You must not forego the right at any time, 
even if it means facing the gutsy winds of limited hardships - 
however much the winds may howl, let them not frighten you. 
The pillar of truth can face any storm with a silence - 
a silence that will kill the scream of evil!

Harsh behavior comes from a mind that has developed anger and bitterness of his own constant failures...

Harsh behavior comes from a mind 
that has developed anger and bitterness 
of his own constant failures. 

Your success becomes his envy, 
and the envy shows the ugly face of pride - 
and pride will only scorn the one that is humble 
and blame him to be weak. 

But you must not pay 
any heed to these insane remarks. 

When you, too, will react with anger, 
you are only allowing evil to make its short-term victory. 

Evil must be destroyed by 
your reaction of its nonrecognition. 
Look only for the happiness that
lies within you and emanate with it.

Hold on to only what is right, today and not to what was wrong yesterday...

Hold on to only what is right, today, and not to what was wrong, yesterday.

Peace will only come, 
when you are the first to make its offering. 

Peace will only come, 
when you are the first to make its offering.

Peace will only come, 
when your path of right will shine before you. 

The one that wrongs is the one that will suffer - 
suffer, one day, with the same weapon that 
will be the course of his death - 
then why must you analyze, judge, 
and punish the one that is the unfortunate of tomorrow? 

Fill yourselves with pity - not the pity of pride, 
but the pity of love and compassion, 
ignoring the attack of the wrong doer 
and become the medicine of his disease.

By learning to forgive, you give another the chance to take a new step ahead..

By learning to forgive, you give 
another the chance to take a new step ahead,
allowing the repentance of his wrong to burn his impurities, 
and encouraging him to develop the strength to fight his failures. 

When you will remember every wrong, 
you My dears, will become his barrier 
from being able to rise from his fall. 

As long as you will hold on to the wrong, 
he, too, will only be compelled to live with it. 
As long as you will resent that wrong, 
he will only be forced to justify it with 
the defense of his failing dignity. 

Do not dwell on another's wrong done to you, let the memory erase....

Do not dwell on
another's wrong done to you, 
let the memory erase,
make it a new beginning,
and with every fresh start, 
let the pain of blame leave you, forever.

We require to read and acquire such messages daily.. to grow uninterrupted in routine, a normal life...

Another an excellent writeup, spreading message of love,We really
require such inspiring doses of messages everyday, to continue harmony,
peace & amp; love in everybody's life, society, world over.We have
tendencies of short memory & amp; reading this message give a reminder,to
spread love.

How to keep such behavior uninterrupted, in routine , normal life.
Confessing honestly, we require such messages daily, continuously.

Don't live just only one day!

Some people likes to dwell on miseries..
Some people likes to dwell on negatives...
Some people likes to revive poor memories...
Some people likes to revise bad memories...


For that incident, they stopped their tracks...
For that incident, they hand-braked their potentials...
For that incident, they blamed themselves...
For that incident, they cannot accept the facts...

Life is supposed to be clear and dear...
Life is supposed to be moving on...
Life is supposed to be turning around...
Life is supposed to be more than joyous...

Let the tree of love take roots and grow in abundance....

He who expects any wealth, property ,amenity or comfort from you, can never be your well wisher.



















He who expects any wealth, property ,amenity or comfort from you, can never be your well wisher.

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...

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.

The end of wisdom is freedom... the end of culture is perfection... the end of knowledge is love...the end of education is character...

The end of wisdom is freedom.
The end of culture is perfection.
The end of knowledge is love.
The end of education is character.

There is a desire on the part of all
of us to acquire these four qualities,
namely wisdom, culture, education
and reach their ends, namely
freedom, perfection, love and character.

But students should realize
that if these qualities are not properly utilised,
then they cannot call themselves students.

As students and future citizens of this
country, you have the responsibility
of shaping the future of this country.

Put your hearts in the right path by listening attentively
to the persons of eminence and experience.

Pride responds with anger, humbleness and humility responds with compromise and reasoning...

Sorrows and disasters are the clouds that flit across the sky, they cannot injure the blue depths of space of faith...

Sorrows and disasters are the clouds
that flit across the sky; they cannot
injure the blue depths of space of faith.

Look upon joy and sorrow
as teachers of hardihood and balance.

Grief is a friendly reminder,
a good taskmaster, even a better teacher than joy.

Do not flinch in the face of grief.
Welcome the test because thereafter
you are awarded the certificate.
It is to measure your progress that tests are imposed

Worry means 'war with the self'



The word “worry” itself means at “war with the Self”.

Worry itself signifies, “Thinking that induces fear within one’s being”.

No doubt worry is thinking…but what kind of thinking…”unnecessary thinking”!

Worry begins when one strongly feels that there is no other solution …other than to think!

Worry always finds its way back to fear. Often many solutions come before the worrier…but he seldom wishes to get out from his so-called “safety net” of continuous uninterrupted thinking.

We often worry and make others worry with us. We are comfortable that both are thinking unnecessarily and remain in a false notion that that itself will bring peace.

We desire…we chase…we make the choices and inevitably when worry surrounds us we look toward God and ask Him “Why?”

We constantly talk of our desires. We often wonder which one will be fulfilled…at what time. And then we speak of how much faith we have in God…and wonder if He has known and realized it!!

Are we truly carefree? Are we ready to give up worrying? Are we ready to distinguish between the “necessary thinking” and the “unnecessary thinking”?

When unnecessary thinking becomes a habit…worry becomes your nature…fear becomes your companion…and life becomes a road to failures…

Let us succeed in thinking right first! And whatever follows we will surely learn to face!

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.

Read this story... 'Bitterness of life'

An experienced wise master grew tired of his Disciple complaining. One morning he sent the Disciple for some salt.

When the Disciple returned, the master instructed the unhappy young man to put a handful of salt in a glass of water and drink it.

"How does it taste?" the master asked.

"Bitter," spit the Disciple.

The master chuckled and then asked the young man to put a handful of Salt in the lake nearby.

The two walked to the nearby lake. After the apprentice swirled his handful of salt into the water, the old man said, "Now drink from the lake...”

As the water dripped down the young man's chin, the master asked, "Now How does this taste?"

"Fresh Sweet" remarked the Disciple.

"Do you taste the salt?" asked the master.

"No," said the young man.

At this, the master sat beside the young man who so reminded him of himself at one time and held his hands.

He told the young man, "The pain of life is pure salt; no more, no less. The amount of pain in life remains exactly the same. However, the amount of bitterness we taste depends on the container we put the pain in!

Forbearance....

You have to make your love pure.
To do so, you must develop forbearance ,
which implies remaining serene, patient and
observing self-restraint under all circumstances,
doing good to all, even to those who may want to harm you.

There is nothing greater than .
Forbearance
is equivalent to truth itself.
It is the heart of righteousness .

It is non-violence in practice.
Forbearance
is contentment, compassion;
truly, it is everything in all the worlds.
Only when you have developed forbearance,
will you be able to attain the Love..

Refuse to indulge in self pity... is it worth gaining the compassion of a few and losing the worth of your own self?

Hatred comes to one with ease, but leaves him with the greatest difficulty...

The one that seeks the company of the self finds himself the least lonely...

One cannot harbor bad feelings within and attempt to offer love...the stream of pure love begins to flow only when the past memories are cleaned with.

Patience is our mood of the day...

when everyone is ok...
when everyone is fine...
when everyone is healthy...
the world will be a better place to live...


It all starts from us...

Thus it is for us to mould the family....


Love is the main ingredient...
Patience is our mood of the day...
Harmony is the song we sing...
