Dharma in work

If you are a house-wife, put your best foot forward there. Be your best self! Don’t expect others to notice that.  Neither for appreciation nor for love of others! Be so, for it fulfills you. Do your ‘Dharma’ with total honesty and that itself will give you the freedom, joy, purpose of life that you so much seek and look searching for!

You may be a student, nurse, tailor, businessman, homemaker or a writer. Give your best and keep pushing your boundaries by way of increasing your ability, talent, workmanship and passion. Why - you may be just washing your bathroom but still give it your all!

Throw yourself into this ‘dharma yagna’ and come out a pure, satisfied and fulfilled soul!

                                     

Work out your destiny through your work!

                            

Work out your ‘karma’ through your work!

                                    

Transcend your karma through your work!

You’ll discover ‘the purpose of your life’ as you work on your excellence in any field that you are in.

Never accept mediocre work or attitude from self. Stop not till you make it – any work the best. Upgrade your skills. Update yourself! And lo! Your life has a purpose, meaning, fulfillment an above all ‘Dharma’ in it and that is the door to ‘freedom to karma’. 

                                        

Know that the complaining person, one who is angry with work, one who looks only at the returns faces failure more often than not. He finds problems one after the other in his work situations. No successful person ever bothered for results. He was into giving his best to the job. Go through any success story.

                                   

One who is complaining about job, dissatisfied in job, doesn't love will give to job much below what he is capable of giving. That is stealing. Yes, when we are not giving our 100% that amounts to stealing ourselves of our capabilities as we are undermining our potential and that way it is harmful to us. It harms our character too over the period of time in all aspects of life and that is very dangerous.

                                         

But one who worships work will find success after success. He need not go after fame and riches. They come searching for him.

See your talent or ability as the ticket that takes you till North Pole. Would you stop travelling after just travelling for 200 kms?  Only fools would think that way! When you have ticket till a destination, why would you cut short your journey? Similarly, when you are capable of giving 100%, why stop yourself from giving it all just because you are looking at the returns from the Company / relationship / Country / self?

# love for work, work ethics, dharma on finance, artha, work your freedom through work

also read previous post : https://kantipadam.blogspot.com/search?q=love 

questions addressed : 

• What is dharma?
• How to apply dharma in work and in earning money?
• How to be rich, famous and successful?
• What are the attitudes required to be successful?
• Does character have an impact on success and its retention?

Points to think about :

• Every crooks and criminals earn money. People with no ethics too earn lots of money. But the person who has character and becomes successful earns also lots of people whom he can trust and share his joys with. He has lots of real friends who are ready to lay their lives for him. He has contentment, peace and security by way of good relationships.             

Today's miracle :

I saw moon in all its brilliance. Sky was completely clear and dark blue sky as back ground, the moon looked beauty ultimate! Wished to lie in the open like in good old days of my childhood.........

Is Luck by chance?

When your attitude is right, you convert your problems into opportunity.....

and if we are humble even a donkey can teach us this lesson!!!

Luck always favours the successful!!!

Everytime, we hear a success story or see a successful person, we unconsciously utter “how lucky!”. We by default assume that person’s life to be easy and success given to him dressed in a plate. We attribute the success always to the luck of that person. We very rarely look into his life before him being successful. It’s always full of situations that YOU and I would term as PROBLEMS in life. It’s the same situations that the LUCKY successful person converted into STEPPING STONES towards success.

Don’t believe me? Then read on……..

One day a farmer's donkey fell down into a well. The animal cried piteously for hours as the farmer tried to figure out what to do. Finally, he decided the animal was old, and the well needed to be covered up anyway; it just wasn't worth it to retrieve the donkey.

He invited all his neighbours to come over and help him. They all grabbed a shovel and began to shovel dirt into the well. At first, the donkey realized what was happening and cried horribly. Then, to everyone's amazement he quieted down.

A few shovel loads later, the farmer finally looked down the well. He was astonished at what he saw. With each shovel of dirt that hit his back, the donkey was doing something amazing. He would shake it off and take a step up.

As the farmer's neighbours continued to shovel dirt on top of the animal, he would shake it off and take a step up. Pretty soon, everyone was amazed as the donkey stepped up over the edge of the well and happily trotted off!

IT MEANS :

Life is going to shovel dirt on you, all kinds of dirt. The trick to getting out of the well (of despair and self-pity) is to shake it off and take a step up. Each of our troubles is a stepping stone. We can get out of the deepest well just by going, never giving up! Shake it off and take a step up.

Remember, when the world pushes you to your knees, you're in the perfect position to pray.

There is no perfect situations in life, just opportunities in the guise of challenges waiting to happen. and to make them happen depends entirely on you and you alone.

Complaining mind sees cloud in every silver lining. A grateful heart and a person with gratitude sees silver lining in every cloud. In gratitude, we are placed in a state of mind which talks of opportunities of self-growth in a given situation. It talks of stock of things that you possess and how to use them to the best of your abilities to grow in life – both internally and externally. Every successful person thanks the situations in his life for what they are – because they made him what he is today. So, you wanted a success mantra – take the first one – be grateful for all that you have and plan to create the life of your choice out of these possessions of yours.

As you plan your success route, I go to dream on – ‘cause only those who dared to dream make it happen – sooner or later…..

Wishing you all a successful journey, I remain still

On success and peace!

On success and peace!

उन्हें कामियाबी में सुकूँ मिला और वो 
दौड़ते चले गए। 
और हमें सुकूं में कामियाबी मिल गया और हम 
वहीं ठहर गए। 

They found peace in success and so
they kept running behind it..
and I found success in peace and I
stood still....

Each needs to know where his success is and what constitutes his peace. Otherwise, after running behind 'assumed success' and getting it too we end up being 'unhappy and dissatisfied' for ever....

The pain is not that much of being unfulfilled or desire not being fulfilled as that of 'desire' being fulfilled and yet being unhappy and dissatisfied....


                                     


Why?

Because we weren't behind things / persons / etc that we needed or in whom our happiness rested on.  So inspite of getting what we wanted we end up crying and complaining and being jealous of others who have it all (even that is assumed again....?!)

So let's take time to look within our baggage of desires and remove that don't matter to us. Let us be clear of what we want. And no, others can't help you on that! Each person's definition and priority of what he /she wants /needs / desires is totally different. Each has to look within and find it oneself ONLY!

                                              

&Yes it is a long process but worth taking it if you don't want to be going through the hell of desiring and rejecting all through your life....

Know thyself to know what you want!

Then 

You'll be happy with what you get!

Happiness is the new rich!

Inner peace is the new success!

Health is the new wealth!

Kindness is the new cool!

 

These are the new ways the Western World has opened up to the old words of happiness, peace, health, wealth and cool!

 

Finally, what the Vedantic philosophy has always stood by is being recognised as the key to a successful and fulfilling life!

 

But, what a way to learn?! Do we always have to learn it the hard way, I wonder!

 

We are always blessed by elders as ‘khush raho’ i.e., be happy! ‘We are blessed not to be 'successful’ as much as to be happy…and we thought less of that. But, the world is opening up to this fact that success and opulence of material success does not translate as happiness. So, let’s go within and find our definition of our happiness. That would make our job to make it happen easier. We’ll know what to heal for start.

Next, it’s peace. We have been living under the delusion for long thanks to western influence that controlling our life situations and people in our life is the key to success. We have been made to believe that ‘I’ am the ONLY thing that matters and for that people are to be used. We forgot all the right values in life. And we have paid very heavy price for that! We have lost our peace. We have lost our courage. We are living in fear. We are standing all alone, weak and pathetic! Think about it!

# happiness, we get what we want, success, ask and it shall be given, 

Questions addressed and points to be noted:

• Do we know the meaning of the words that we utter and use?
• We say something but many times we mean something else altogether. Have you wondered why?
• "Sorry maam, I didn't mean that" is the common statement made when I question your intentions. If you didn't mean it then why did you say so? If there is no clarity between what you say and what you mean then don't you think you are sending wrong messages to the Universe? May be, this is also one of the causes for things going in a certain way in your life??!! 
• Unless  you know the meaning of your words you will not be able to express right. 
• Unless you express right, you don't communicate right.
• Unless you communicate right, you can't have good relationships.
• Unless you have good relationships you can't experience affection, peace and happiness from any of your relationships.
• Take time to know yourself! All other things will follow suit!
