All that matters never matters in the end…….

Love never forgives. Because, it never remembers in the first place.

All that is born should die………
All that is of the world is transcient………
To seek permanence of the things of the world is the biggest curse called Ignorance…….

To work to hold on to the things of this world is the mockery of hard-work......and the result always is only PAIN & suffering..........

Forget the past and move on !!!;

A wise man once sat in the audience & cracked a joke.

All laughed like crazy.

After a moment he cracked the same joke again and a little less people laughed this time.

He cracked the same joke again & again. When there was no laughter in the crowd, he smiled and asked "When u can't laugh on the same joke again & again, then why do u keep crying over the same thing over and over again.”

By repeatedly going through the painful experiences, we add more pain to it everytime we relive it….we re-experience the pain long after the event happened……isn’t that odd? Would you call it an intelligent way of living or a stupid way of living?

If the answer is stupid, then, the question is “Am I a stupid person?”
Certainly not……then why act in a stupid way?
Who would call a man crying over the spilled milk an intelligent person? Think!!!

Forget The Past & Move On!!!

Live life intelligent way and be happy and peaceful….

IF not done........

Work done…….

A man came home from work and found his three children outside, still in their pajamas, playing in the mud, with empty food boxes and wrappers strewn all around the front yard.

The door of his wife's car was open, as was the front door to the house and there was no sign of the dog. Proceeding into the entry, he found an even bigger mess. A lamp had been knocked over, and the throw rug was wadded against one wall. In the front room the TV was loudly blaring a Cartoon channel, and the family room was strewn with toys and various items of clothing.

In the kitchen, dishes filled the sink, breakfast food was spilled on the counter the fridge door was open wide, dog food was spilled on the floor, a broken glass lay under the table, and a small pile of sand was spread by the back door. He quickly headed up the stairs, stepping over toys and more piles of clothes, looking for his wife. He was worried she might be ill, or that something serious had happened.

He was met with a small trickle of water as it made its way out the bathroom door. As he peered inside he found wet towels, scummy soap and more toys strewn over the floor. Miles of toilet paper lay in a heap and toothpaste had been smeared over the mirror and walls.

As he rushed to the bedroom, he found his wife still curled up in the bed in her pajamas, reading a novel. She looked up at him, smiled, and asked how his day went. He looked at her bewildered and asked, 'What happened here today?'

She again smiled and answered, 'You know every day when you come home from work and you ask me what in the world do I do all day?'

'Yes,' was his incredulous reply. She answered, 'Well, today I didn't do it .'

As long as things are done, it is never validated……we are ever complaining about couple of ways things are not going ‘our way’…….but it could have been worst if HE was not doing ‘ANYTHING’….

The most common complaint I always receive is ‘How come I don’t see HIM doing anything right for me?’

‘Why am I suffering so much if HE is really doing /working for me?’
‘Inspite of doing Reiki, pranayamam, yoga , meditation why am I falling sick? Why are things not good inspite of me doing all these?’

The answer is things are just so because of all that you are doing / HE is doing….imagine how worst it could have been otherwise………

Why me?

Whenever we are faced with the situation or we need to live with a person whom or what we term as 'not aggreable' to us, we usually ask the question "Why me?"

Arthur Ashe, the legendary Wimbledonplayer 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 -- 50 million children start playing tennis, 5 million learn to play tennis, 500,000 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?'.

And today in pain I should not be asking GOD 'Why me?' "

"Happiness keeps you Sweet,
Trials keep you Strong,
Sorrow keeps you Human,
Failure keeps you humble and Success keeps you glowing, but only Faith & Attitude Keeps you going...

If we want success, then failure is part of it.......we can't reject one side of the coin saying 'I don't like it...."

If I want to be 'married' then in-laws, spouse and the responsibilities that come with marriage is a package deal, we just can't pick up our choices and leave the rest ...........

When we take responsibility of our success, goodness, good health and all, we ARE SOLELY responsible for the failures, ill-repute, ill health etc.., we can't put the blame on someone else for the things going wrong if we take credit for the good that we do........

think......

One morning I wasted nearly an hour watching a tiny ant carry a huge feather across my back terrace........

Several times it was confronted by obstacles in its Path and after a momentary pause it would make the necessary detour.

At one point the ant had to negotiate a crack in the concrete about 10mm wide.After brief contemplation the ant laid the feather over the crack, Walked across it and picked up the feather on the other side then continued on its way.

I was fascinated by the ingenuity of this ant, one of God's smallest creatures.
It served to reinforce the miracle of creation.

Here was a minute insect, lacking in size yet equipped with a brain to reason, explore,discover and overcome.

But this ant, like the two-legged co-residents of this planet, also shares human failings. After some time the ant finally reached its destination - a flower bed at the end of the terrace and a small hole that was the entrance to its underground home.

And it was here that the ant finally met its match.

How could that large feather possibly fit down a small hole? Of course it couldn't.

So the ant, after all this trouble and exercising great ingenuity, overcoming problems all along the way, just abandoned the feather and went home.

The ant had not thought the problem through before it began its epic journey and, in the end, the feather was nothing more than a burden.

Isn't OUR LIFE like that..? We worry about our family; we worry about money or the lack of it, we worry about work, about where we live, about all sorts of things. These are all burdens - the things we pick up along life's path and lug them around the obstacles and over the crevices that life will bring, only to find that, at the destination, they are useless and we can't take them with us....still............

Let's travel light.........when we worry about the facts and situations of life, we feel them as burdens.........but when we do what needs to be done with total love without the thought of 'worry' we enjoy what we do........let's learn the art of living.........right.........

Is our Intelligence our bane ?

Are we growing as human beings as we read, accumulate, achieve more? I doubt.......

It was a Sports Stadium.Eight Children were standing on the track to participate in a running event.* Ready! * Steady! * Bang !!!With the sound of Toy pistol,All eight girls started running.

Hardly had they covered ten to fifteen steps,when one of the smaller girls slipped and fell down,Due to bruises and pain she started crying.When the other seven girls heard the little girl cry they stopped running, stood for a while and turned back.Seeing the girl on the track they all ran to help.One among them bent down, picked her up and kissed her gentlyAnd enquired as to how she was..They then lifted the fallen girl pacifying her.Two of them held her firmly while all seven joined hands together and walked together towards the winning post........ .There was pin drop silence at the spectator's stand.Officials were shocked.Slow claps multiplied to thousands as the spectators stood up in appreciation.Many eyes were filled with tears .......And perhaps even God's!YES.!!

This happened in Hyderabad [INDIA], recently!The sport was conducted by National Institute of Mental Health.All these special girls had come to participate in this event.

They were spastic children.Yes, they were Mentally Challenged.

What did they teach the WORLD?

Teamwork?Humanity?Equality among all??

The defination of the success for all in today's world is to slow down others, over power others, go ahead of others........just to be the first in the rat race is the be all of life!!!!!!!

No doubt we end up feeling like a RAT at the end of the race of life!!!!!!

For us, just to WIN is everything....even at the cost of others - many times only at the cost of others....our feeling of winning is only with respect to others...no doubt, we have less love in today's world....more rivalry, back biting and more tension, more loneliness and less peace of mind....

Successful people help others who are slow in learningSo that they are not left far behind.

Can we understand success in the right sense? Shall we take a completely fresh, more clear road to success so that both enroute and at the end of it we feel happy, complete, loved and loving, satisfied and peaceful.........

I always get the feedback of the single liners.....everyone comes out with their understanding and say it's beautiful.....but the purpose of the one liners is not just understanding them immediately or to validate them.......

One liners are not the statements which should be agreed/disagreed at face value.

Their purpose is so very different!

They are the brain-teasers – in other words they should be chanted and applied at almost every situation and understood from that point of situation and time…then meaning unfolds differently (as said by b.singh in one of the comments section) in different situations….it means different too at different points of time…….as you play with these sentences and use them as ‘tag liners’ / ‘pauses’ / ‘reminders to get connected with the absolute Truth or Self’ meaning unfolds layer by layer and then we taste what is called as satori by Zen – specks of enlightenment.

Always remember – before the absolute enlightenment happens many small enlightenments enroute……. Taste it, experience it and enjoy it…..

One of the liner is explained with just 2 egs. But it’s scope is so vast that just this sentence can remove our ignorance and give us absolute clarity of thought in every subject provided we apply it religiously everywhere……


"All that is seen is not real.."

We are guided by our sense organs and Eyes is one such sense organ that makes maximum effect on our psyche. At every such moment, am I aware of the Truth?

For eg: some Stars that are seen every night and enjoyed are dead long back. Others are so many light years old that they must have shrinked drastically or moved away from where they seem to be to our eyes. In short, what we see don’t exist NOW as I see them or in other words they don’t exist the way I presume them to.

Sun rises in East and sets in West – This is the most accepted presumption (like many others too!) but does the SUN ever RISE or SET – NO!. but we SEE it rising and setting and think it to be true though proved that it doesn’t happen.

We SEE what we want to Believe. In other words our mind collaborates with our senses to conjure up the image that fits it’s fancy. Hence all that is seen is not real!

Apply this one liner at every juncture and for every situation and see the meaning unfold itself so beautifully and completely everytime.....

may you enjoy this journery......

IF AN EGG IS BROKEN BY AN OUTSIDE FORCE........A LIFE ENDS.

BUT, WHEN THE SAME EGG BREAKS FROM WITHIN.......LIFE BEGINS.

GREAT THINGS ALWAYS BEGIN FROM WITHIN .

So, if you want to change something or someone, be the change yourself.

If you want love, Love.

If you want people to be understanding, be understanding.

Whatever you wish for, you desire for, you aspire for - JUST BE ! RIGHT NOW!
