I FORGIVE YOU

My Dear Souls ;

Namaste !

If you remember, Long back I have given you a single word statement/sentence  : YES 

than I have given you two word statement/sentence  : THANK YOU 

After that i was thinking as what should be my three word statement/sentence which can be both way effective : I have selected many :::::::

I LOVE YOU 

I AM SORRY 

YOU NEVER KNOW 

GOD BLESS YOU 

ALL IS WELL

LOVE YOUR LIFE 

LIFE IS BLISS 

FRIENDS ARE FOREVER 

etc etc etc ... but none was so effective for thought process. I was searching and than suddenly a flash came to me YES this is it. I got the three word statement/sentence for all of us. 

So my dear souls the three word statement/sentence  is : 

I FORGIVE YOU. 

yes my dear souls , this statement makes both the sender and the receiver blissful. both are relieved. both become close with a single statement : I FORGIVE YOU.

still waiting .. go ahead. forget the past. forgive someone and feel light for the rest of your life. 

GOD bless you all.

<<<<<<<<< From the desk of GOD >>>>>>>

:Effective Immediately:

Please be aware that there are changes you need to make in your life. These changes need to be completed in order that I may fulfill my promises to you to grant you peace, joy and happiness in this life. I apologize for any inconvenience, but after all that I am doing, this seems very little to ask of you. I know, I already gave you the 10 Commandments. Keep them. But follow these guidelines as well...

1. QUIT WORRYING

Life has dealt you a blow and all you do is sit and worry. Have you forgotten that I am here to take all your burdens and carry them for you? Or do you just enjoy fretting over every little thing that comes your way?

2. PUT IT ON THE LIST

Something needs done or taken care of. Put it on the list. No, not YOUR list. Put it on MY to-do-list. Let ME be the one to take care of the problem. I can't help you until you turn it over to me. And, although my to-do-list is long, I am, after all, God. I can take care of anything you put into my hands. In fact, if the truth were ever really known, I take care of a lot of things for you that you never even realize.

3. TRUST ME

Once you've given your burdens to me, quit trying to take them back. Trust in me. Have the faith that I will take care of all your needs, your problems and your trials. Problems with the kids? Put them on my list. Problem with finances? Put it on my list. Problems with your emotional roller coaster? For my sake, put it on my list. I want to help you. All you have to do is ask.

4. LEAVE IT ALONE

Don't wake up one morning and say, "Well, I'm feeling much stronger now, I think I can handle it from here." Why do you think you are feeling stronger now? It's simple. You gave me your burdens and I'm taking care of them. I also renew your strength and cover you in my peace. Don't you know that if I give you these problems back, you will be right back where you started? Leave them with me and forget about them. Just let me do my job.

5. TALK TO ME

I want you to forget a lot of things. Forget what was making you crazy. Forget the worry and the fretting because you know I'm in control. But there's one thing I pray you never forget. Please don't forget to talk to me - OFTEN! I love you. I want to hear your voice. I want you to include me in on the things going on in your life. I want to hear you talk about your friends and family. Prayer is simply you having a conversation with me. I want to be your dearest friend.

6. HAVE FAITH

I see a lot of things from up here that you can't see from where you are. Have faith in me that I know what I'm doing. Trust me, you wouldn't want the view from my eyes. I will continue to care for you, watch over you, and meet your needs. You only have to trust me. Although I have a much bigger task than you, it seems as if you have so much trouble just doing your simple part. How hard can trust be?

7. SHARE

You were taught to share when you were only two years old. When did you forget? That rule still applies. Share with those who are less fortunate than you. Share your joy with those who need encouragement. Share your laughter with those who haven't heard any in such a long time. Share your tears with those who have forgotten how to cry. Share your faith with those who have none.

8. BE PATIENT

I managed to fix it so in just one lifetime you could have so many diverse experiences. You grow from a child to an adult, have children, change jobs many times, learn many trades, travel to so many places, meet thousands of people, and experience so much. How can you be so impatient then when it takes me a little longer than you expect to handle something on my to-do-list? Trust in my timing, for my timing is perfect. Just because I created the entire universe in only six days, everyone thinks I should always rush, rush, rush.

9. BE KIND

Be kind to others, for I love them just as much as I love you. They may not dress like you, or talk like you, or live the same way you do, but I still love you all. Please try to get along, for my sake. I created each of you different in some way. It would be too boring if you were all identical. Please know I love each of your differences.

10. LOVE YOURSELF

As much as I love you, how can you not love yourself? You were created by me for one reason only - to be loved, and to love in return. I am a God of Love. Love me. Love your neighbors. But also love yourself. It makes my heart ache when I see you so angry with yourself when things go wrong. You are very precious to me. Don't ever forget that!

With all my heart, I love you,

GOD

Life management tools : 5 things – you should stop doing and start doing !!!

Life management tools : 5 things – you should stop doing and start doing !!!

:::5 Things to Stop Doing :::

1.  Stop stalling and being lazy.

You can’t build a good reputation or a successful way of life based on what you could do or might do someday.  The quality of your life is in direct proportion to your commitment to get things done, regardless of your chosen path.

2.  Stop neglecting your self-control.

Nobody ever wrote down a plan to be broke, lazy, out of shape, uneducated, etc.  These things happen when you lose your self-control.

3.  Stop looking outside yourself.

The problem is that when you think you have to LOOK for things in life like love, meaning, and inspiration, the LOOKING implies that these things are somehow hiding behind some bushes somewhere, just waiting to be discovered.  But that’s not the case.

4.  Stop letting negative people drain you.

You might think being alone makes you lonely, but that’s not entirely true.  Being surrounded by the wrong people is the loneliest place in the world.

5.  Stop belittling your efforts and your progress.

Appreciate where you are now and keep fighting for where you want to be tomorrow.  You are not a failure until you give up on yourself.  Keep going! Hard times may hold you down for awhile but they will not last forever, and when all is said and done, you will be able to stand even taller than those who didn’t earn it.

::::5 Things to Start Doing :::

1.  Start living.

Don’t simply exist in this world, grab life’s full potential by the horns and ride it out.  Dare life to be all it can be.  Make it a memorable  gripping account of accomplishment.  Make it a thrilling, challenging, bold adventure.  Make life a passionate, enduring, poetic romance. Whatever it is you decide to do with your life, LIVE it!  Get going!  Move forward, aim high, plan your takeoff.  Don’t just sit on the runway.  Adjust your attitude and gain some altitude.  

2.  Start taking chances that feel right.

Life will try to break you sometimes; nothing and no one can completely protect you from it.  Remaining alone in your comfort zone won’t either, for endless, stagnant solitude will also break you with yearning. You’re human.  You have to love.  You have to feel.  You have to strive.  You are here to risk your heart by putting it into something you believe in.  If you avoid taking these chances, one thing is certain, you will make is safely to death someday, feeling empty and unfulfilled.

3.  Start indulging in meaningful challenges.

What a true blessing it is that there is always work to be done.  Because the real value of any accomplishment is not in the end result, it is in the process of accomplishment. Success is a state of mind, and the most reliable way to reach that state is by working mindfully through a meaningful challenge.  Such a challenge might seem somewhat overwhelming when you first encounter it, yet as you progress through it, you transform the work from overwhelming to fulfilling.  

4.  Start nurturing your real family.

Family is built with love; it’s not determined by marriage certificates, divorce papers, and formal adoption documents.  Families grow from the heart, through mutual love and respect.  The only time family becomes nullified is when the ties in the heart are cut.  If you cut the ties, these people are not your family.  If you build the ties, these people are your family.  So build ties with the right people and nurture them with love.

5.  Start making time for YOU.

There is objective time meant for focused work, but also subjective time where the pulse of your life breathes – your relationships, your awareness, your hobbies, etc. So find the time – the time to read, to smell the flowers, to take a walk in the wilderness, to share a laugh, to learn a fun craft, to try a new recipe, to explore somewhere new, to really be with someone you love, to paint your dreams, or even to just do nothing and relax for a while.  Find time for YOU.

Strengths & Weaknesses !!!

Story : The Judo Master

Sometimes your biggest weakness can become your biggest strength. Take, for example, the story of one 10-year-old boy who decided to study judo despite the fact that he had lost his left arm in a devastating car accident.

The boy began lessons with an old Japanese judo master. The boy was doing well, so he couldn't understand why, after three months of training, the master had taught him only one move. 

"Sensei," the boy finally said, "shouldn't I be learning more moves?"
"This is the only move you know, but this is the only move you'll ever need to know," the sensei replied. Not quite understanding, but believing in his teacher, the boy kept training.

Several months later, the sensei took the boy to his first tournament. 

Surprising himself, the boy easily won his first two matches. The third match proved to be more difficult, but after some time, his opponent became impatient and charged; the boy deftly used his one move to win the match. Still amazed by his success, the boy was now in the finals.

This time, his opponent was bigger, stronger, and more experienced. For a while, the boy appeared to be overmatched. Concerned that the boy might get hurt, the referee called a time-out. He was about to stop the match when the sensei intervened. "No," the sensei insisted, "Let him continue."

Soon after the match resumed, his opponent made a critical mistake: he dropped his guard. Instantly, the boy used his move to pin him. The boy had won the match and the tournament. He was the champion.

On the way home, the boy and sensei reviewed every move in each and every match. Then the boy summoned the courage to ask what was really on his mind. "Sensei, how did I win the tournament with only one move?"

"You won for two reasons," the sensei answered. "First, you've almost mastered one of the most difficult throws in all of judo. Second, the only known defense for that move is for your opponent to grab your left arm."

The boy's biggest weakness had become his biggest strength.

well being of GOD.

My dear Souls ;

When was the last time when you thought of well being of GOD. 

We all are continuously asking , demanding , praying to GOD , we never let him have his space. We ask, we demand, we curse, we abuse, we complain ,we shout at him . we do everything to him whatever is possible and sometimes impossible also ; by abusing him in the name of religion. 

Ever we thought , that he too need 

some rest ? Half of the world is after him at any point of given time. Very strange truth , but it is !

So when was the last time you thought of giving him some rest. Don’t you think that he deserves some space, some time !!!!

Please stop ! He has given you a life ! now the call is all ours. For every small thing if we start troubling the BOSS, than what is the use our being here. Right ? So , give him a break. He needs it !

Pranaam .

Plant LOVE, CARE, HUMANITY, KINDNESS .

My Dear Souls ;

Ever thought on this :

Buddha said  :The heart is like a garden. It can grow compassion or fear, resentment or love. What seeds will you plant there?

This is really so important in designing our life . After all Its "we" who think as what should be done and how it should be done and than finally we act on the thought . and everything is and outcome of our plantation only.

So don't you think that it is the time we re-design our plantation .

Plant LOVE, CARE, HUMANITY, KINDNESS .

Pranaam
Much Love , Light , Hugs !!!

Mother Teresa...!!!

My Dear Souls ;

A humble remembrance of The Mother is a gesture towards HUMANITY , which she served without any discrimination of caste creed , gender etc.

In her Nobel Lecture, she said: "Around the world, not only in the poor countries, but I found the poverty of the West so much more difficult to remove. When I pick up a person from the street, hungry, I give him a plate of rice, a piece of bread, I have satisfied. I have removed that hunger. But a person that is shut out, that feels unwanted, unloved, terrified, the person that has been thrown out from society—that poverty is so hurtable and so much, and I find that very difficult."

My pranaams to the very woman of substance and thank you mother for giving me a reason to live.

She was a true angel of our times. We promise you mother that we carry your teachings in our life time and try to pass it on to the coming generations .

some time for your own soul & spirit

My Dear Souls ;

Often we get indulged into worldly things . The materialism leaves us dry and high. We get too busy often into our rat race that we hardly get any time to Spend time with our spiritual side every single day. often we spend our time working on things that have no bearing on our spiritual success because we haven’t taken the time to focus and understand what Spirit means for us.

So it is my humble request to all of you to take some time for your own soul & spirit . Because finally at any point of your life , it is only your soul and spirit which remains with you  and NOT any materialism of this world.

Promise me that you will give back few minutes to your soul . { The same soul which has given you a lifetime }

Much Love , Light & Hugs

Woman

My Dear Souls ;

The first person in our life is WOMAN.

And as we grow , during various stages of our life ; we get introduced to various forms of woman and many women plays many roles in our life .

BUT did you ever think - what are those three things they are giving us . It is LOVE, CARE and RESPECT.

With these three simple but very important shades of our life, they nourish our life to the best of their life. They reach out to the maximum to give us whatever we want. And they play different roles at different times for us . And they do all this only to make us more and more happy and happier. And they always use only these three mediums : Love , Care and Respect.

Well , don’t you think that its high time that we should give back this to them.

YES . They too need Love, Care and Respect . Please give back to them their share.

And let me tell you if you do this. You will be giving a gift of lifetime to them.

And also my promise to you all. If you give these three simple and core mediums of life to your women around you . You will get unlimited blessings and love, care and respect multifold  beyond your calculations from them .  And Yes you will get 100 hugs from me too !!!

Much Love , Light and Hugs

Realization !!!!

Don't be in too much of a hurry to solve all your doubts and problems. As the masters say: “Make haste slowly.” I always tell my students not to have unreasonable expectations, because it takes time for spiritual growth. It takes years to learn Japanese properly or to become a doctor. Can we really expect to have all the answers, let alone become enlightened, in a few weeks?

The spiritual journey is one of continuous learning and purification. When you know this, you become humble. There is a famous Tibetan saying: “Do not mistake understanding for realization, and do not mistake realization for liberation.” And Milarepa said: “Do not entertain hopes for realization, but practice all your life.”

— Sogyal Rinpoche

Story : Dare to dream

“Is the price of living a dream much higher than the price of living without daring to dream?” asked the disciple.

The master took him to a clothes store. There, he asked him to try on a suit in exactly his size. The disciple obeyed, and was very amazed at the quality of the clothes.

Then the master asked him to try on the same suit – but this time a size much bigger than his own. The disciple did as he was asked.

“This one is no use. It’s too big.”

“How much are these suits?” the master asked the shop attendant.

“They both cost the same price. It’s just the size that is different.”

When leaving the store, the master told his disciple, “Living your dream or giving it up also costs the same price, which is usually very high. But the first lets us share the miracle of life, and the second is of no use to us.”

: LIFE management tools : 10 Toxic Personalities Living Inside You :

Unfortunately we all have unhealthy personalities buried deep within us that have the potential to negatively impact our lives.  Although we are all human and have our own ‘personality issues,’ some ‘issues’ are, quite frankly, toxic.  They are toxic to our happiness.  They are toxic to our relationships.  They are toxic to our self-esteem.  And they are toxic to our dreams.

Here are 10 such personalities to look for in yourself, and avoid.

1.    The negativity committee. – You can never fail in life or love; you just produce results.  It’s up to you how you interpret those results.  Positive thinking is the ability to feel negative when you have to and still maintain enough hope to keep on going.  You cannot tailor-make the situations in life, but you can tailor-make the attitudes to fit those situations.  You must view your life through a positive lens.  Instead of slapping your forehead and asking, “What was I thinking?” you must breathe and ask the more encouraging question, “What was I learning?”

2.    The hoarder of pain and loss. – One of the hardest lessons in life is letting go - whether it’s guilt, anger, love or loss.  Change is never easy – you fight to hold on, and you fight to let go.  But oftentimes letting go is the healthiest path forward.  You’ve got to emotionally free yourself from the things that once meant a lot to you, so you can move beyond the past and the pain it brings you.

3.    The jealous competitor. – Don’t be jealous of others.  Jealousy is the art of counting someone else’s blessings instead of your own.  Stop comparing your journey with everyone else’s.  Your journey is YOUR journey, NOT a competition.  You are in competition with one person and one person only – yourself.  You are competing to be the best you can be.  If you want to measure your progress, compare yourself to who you were yesterday.

4.    The mask. – No matter what age, race, gender you are, underneath all your external decorations you are a pure, beautiful being – each and every one of us are.  We each have light to shine, and missions to accomplish.  Celebrate being different, off the beaten path, a little on the weird side, your own special creation.  If you find yourself feeling like a fish out of water, by all means find a new river to swim in.  But DO NOT change who you are; BE who you are.

5.    The superficial judge. – Don’t always judge a person by what they show you.  Remember, what you’ve seen is oftentimes only what that person has chosen to show you, or what they were driven to show based on their inner stress and pain.  Alas, when another person tries to make you suffer, it is usually because they suffer deep within themselves.  Their suffering is simply spilling over.  They do not need punishment or ridicule, they need help.

6.    The busy body. – It is extremely healthy to spend time in solitude.  You need to be alone sometimes, to think and relax in a peaceful environment where you are not defined by anyone else.  Today, take some time out to take care of yourself. 

7.    The perfectionist. – As human beings, we often chase hypothetical, static states of perfection.  We do so when we are searching for the perfect house, job, friend, or lover.  The problem, of course, is that perfection doesn’t exist in a static state.  Because life is a continual journey, constantly evolving and changing.  What is here today is not exactly the same tomorrow – that perfect house, job, friend, or lover will eventually fade to a state of imperfection.  But with a little patience and an open mind, over time, that imperfect house evolves into a comfortable home.  That imperfect job evolves into a rewarding career.  That imperfect friend evolves into a steady shoulder to lean on.  And that imperfect lover evolves into a reliable lifelong companion.

8.    The cheater. – Cheating is a choice, not a mistake, and not an excuse!  If you decide to cheat, and you succeed in cheating someone out of something, don’t think that this person is a fool.  Realize that this person trusted you much more than you ever deserved.  Be bigger than that.  Don’t do immoral things simply because you can.  Don’t cheat.  Be honest with yourself and everyone else.  Do the right thing.  Integrity is the essence of everything successful. 

9.    The victim. – Don’t let your dreams waste away on another person’s promise.  Stop giving opportunities to people who make you feel inferior and let you down as soon as it’s convenient for them.  Saying “no” to the ‘wrong’ people gives you the time and resources required to say “yes” to ‘right’ people and the ‘right’ opportunities.  Stand up for yourself and take charge of your life.

10.    The procrastinator. – You don’t have to see the whole staircase, you just have to take the first step; and the first step to living the life you want is slowly leaving the life you don’t want.  Taking this first step is always the hardest.  But then each subsequent step gets easier and easier.  And with each step you get closer and closer to the life you seek.  Until eventually, what had once been invisible, starts to become visible.  And what had once felt unattainable, becomes a reality.

Buddha

Buddha told his disciples: whoever makes an effort can attain enlightenment in seven days. If he can’t manage it, certainly he will attain it in seven months, or in seven years. The young man decided that he would attain it in one week, and he wanted to know what he should do: “concentration” was the reply. 

 
The young man began to practice, but in ten minutes he was already distracted. Little by little, he began paying attention to everything that distracted him, and thought that he was not wasting time, but was getting used to himself.

 

One fine day he decided it was not necessary to arrive at his goal so fast, because the path was teaching him many things.

It was at that moment that he became an Enlightened one.

::: STORY :::…in our hands..!!!

When she was eleven years old, Anita went to her mother to complain. “I can’t manage to have friends. They all stay away from me because I’m so jealous.”

Her mother was taking care of newly-born chickens, and Anita held up one of them, which immediately tried to escape. The more the girl squeezed it in her hands, the more the chicken struggled.

Her mother said: “try holding it gently.”

Anita obeyed her. She opened her hands and the chicken stopped struggling. She began to stroke it and the chicken cuddled up between her fingers.

“Human beings are like that too,” said her mother. “If you want to hold onto them by any means, they escape. But if you are kind to them, they will remain forever by your side.”

:::: MUSIC, BOOKS AND COMEDY ::::

My Dear Souls

I HAVE THREE LIFELINES: MUSIC, BOOKS AND COMEDY

But why I am sharing this with you all.

Because MUSIC is the only divine materialism which connects to our hearts and our souls .

Because BOOKS are the only medium which gives knowledge to our thought process to understand the world and it’s better aspects of life in all dimensions

Because COMEDY relaxes you , kills your stress and removes the depression.

MUSIC , BOOKS and Comedy does not have language or other bars of this world created by we humans. You can listen to any music track which can sooth you down, you can any book , which can give you an insight of the materialistic world, and you can smile and laugh around to make yourself happy .

Because a happy YOU only make others happy who are around you.

I have started posting about the books and music on Every Wednesday. I am sure you will be enjoying them.  I am equally sure that these tips are common to you all too.

Happy Living friends….

GOD Bless you all.

:::: Same Hand of GOD :::

My Dear Souls

Paul Coelho said in The Alchemist. “Everything has been written by the same hand.”

I want to move ahead with this quote . Friends. We all are walking on the same path of spirituality with different -different dimensions of our own faith. Some here believe in Hinduism, some in Islam , some in Christianity , some in Buddhism , some in Sikhism and many more. There are several masters to all of us . And all this leads to one goal.

The path of spirituality and solace with GOD .

Rest assured that we all will achieve this ! because it is the same GOD , who is present with us , in us  in different avatars . It is the same hand which united all of us here in Hrudayam . It is the same hand which makes us share this joy of sharing knowledge .

It is the same GOD , which connects me to all of you. We all are part of a bigger soul. And this is more important. Hrudayam is big heart which has soul connection to all hearts of us.

And the teachings are so simple. Be better person and  give back to the society. Please share your happiness  with some of the unfortunate brothers and sisters around you . It is so simple. YES !

Let’s make a pledge: Live and let other Live.

Amen …!!!


GOD Bless you all.

:::: KIDS ::::

My Dear Souls

Today I will share a secret with you all.

For your own heart and souls if you want relaxation , then please play with kids , your kids, others kids, just follow them blindly . they may be your kids, your grand children or great grand children. Spend as much time as possible with them. You will find every time that you are simply connected to GOD.

DO  YOU EVER understood that KIDS are DIRECT gifts of GOD. In fact they are the only gifts of GOD, which can be seen and felt.

Their questions [ most of the time endless and interconnected  ] makes our heart filled with joy and happiness.

I never leave a moment , which can be spent with the kids. They are the real joy . I have named my 10 year old son as “ All time Buddha” he is a great soul. Every Guru Purnima , I touch his feet first .  He gives me so much of peace. I have lost my mother long back . when My daughter is born , I started calling her as my mother. My daughter is my mother. This is as simple as that . And it relaxes my heart .  During my evening meditation practice the kids share the energy aura and they feel so happy and in the whole process they make me happy .

So , please never loose any moment to spend time with kids. They are the angles of your life. And if you  have grandchildren . the joy is double.

Life is all about sharing joy and pleasure.

GOD Bless you all.

:::: SLOW DOWN :::

My Dear Souls

Buddha once said “ slow down , walk slowly . Eat slowly and properly “

OSHO further elaborated it to innate/ inherent/facile.

When you start doing things in a slow manner , you will find that your focus is improved. You are more concerned about the issues around you . you will find them more connected to you .

Whatever you do , just do it with inherent way . your very own way . Just do not follow anything or anyone . BE yourself. BE YOU.

Enjoy Life’s gifts as they come to you . slowly. Visually, positively . lovingly.

GOD Bless you all.

OSHO once said “ in deep silence ,Something of me enters you, and something of you enters me”

I want to elaborate this with my own experience. Everyday during my morning meditations , this happens .once you reach the peak meditative state . the absolute silence takes over you and than in those deep meditative moments of silence , something of GOD enters you and Something of you enters in GOD. [ GOD is already in you than why this statement ] YES, because knowing and experiencing are two different aspects.

I want to say this only to push you all to do some meditation. The method should be all your choice only. Don’t get hooked to something of someone else. You select your own mode and than slowly slip into the trance of divinity.

And Believe me it happens .

Love, Light & Hugs

::: LIFE MANAGEMENT TOOLS ::: 10 REMINDERS FOR YOUR EVERY DAY ::::

My dear Souls ,

Usually because of the harsh situations of life we get stuck in the mind and than we stop fighting . Remember LIFE is a battlefield. And we need to fight each and every moment . so here are ten daily reminders to keep your mind centered and your spirits lifted.

1.    Treat yourself the way you want others to treat you. 
2.    The biggest obstacles in your life are the barriers your mind creates.
3.    Sometimes to get where you want to go, you have to do what you are afraid to do. 
4.    You must find the place inside yourself where nothing is impossible. 
5.    You don’t have to see the whole staircase, you just have to take the first step. 
6.    No matter how many times you revisit the past, there’s nothing new to see. 
7.    No matter how difficult things were yesterday, you are armed with the ability and choice to do better today. 
8.    Never get so busy making a living that you forget to make a life. 
9.    You can only be yourself, and other people can only be themselves.
10.    Sometimes it’s okay if the only thing you’re doing is breathing. 

I am sure that the above will help you to get what you have always dreamed. GOD Bless you .

Love, Light & Hugs

::::Story :…...........dance in the rain :::

There once was a woman who woke up one morning, looked in the mirror, and noticed she had only three hairs on her head. "Well," she said, "I think I'll braid my hair today." So she did and she had a wonderful day.

The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and saw that she had only two hairs on her head. "Hmmm..," she said, "I think I'll part my hair down the middle today." So she did and she had a grand day.

The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and noticed that she had only one hair on her head. "Well," she said, "Today I'm going to wear my hair in a pony tail." So she did, and she had a fun, fun day.

The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and noticed that there wasn't a single hair on her head. "YAY!" she exclaimed. "I don't have to fix my hair today!"
Attitude is everything. Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle. Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.
Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass... It's about learning to dance in the rain.

Gurupurnima

My dear souls;

I wish you all today on this auspicious day of  Gurupurnima ..!

गुरुर ब्रह्मा गुरुर विष्णु गुरूर देवो महेश्वराय।
गुरुर्साक्षात परब्रह्म तस्मै ‍श्री गुरुवे नम:।।

Guru Purnima  is a festival traditionally celebrated in honour to the masters. The word guru is derived from two words, 'Gu' and 'Ru' . The Sanskrit root "Gu" means darkness or ignorance. "Ru" denotes the remover of that darkness. Therefore one who removes darkness of our ignorance is a Guru. So Guru is most necessary part of lives. On this day, disciples offer puja (worship) or pay respect to their Guru (Spiritual Guide). It falls on the day of full moon, Purnima, in the month of Ashadh (June–July) Traditionally the festival is celebrated by Buddhists in the honor the lord Buddha who gave His first sermon on this day. For all the seekers this day is very special.

My dear Friends, Guru has been described as the ultimate savior . And without the master with us , we can never achieve , whatever we want to achieve in our lives.  All of us ; in this battle of life are in the pursuit of spirituality and we are walking on an endless journey. Hrudayam group every day helps you all to continue your spiritual journey along with others with the blessings of so many masters of our universe.

There were 16 Masters to Lord Krishna. Just Think. If God can not live without masters , how can we ?  Take hold of the master and get his /her blessings for your inner journey .

Swami Sivananda  describes the Role of the Guru as : "Do you realize now the sacred significance and the supreme importance of the Guru's role in the evolution of man? It was not without reason that the India of the past carefully tended and kept alive the lamp of Guru-Tattva. It is therefore not without reason that India, year after year, age after age, commemorates anew this ancient concept of the Guru, adores it and pays homage to it again and again, and thereby re-affirms its belief and allegiance to it. For, the true Indian knows that the Guru is the only guarantee for the individual to transcend the bondage of sorrow and death, and experience the Consciousness of the Reality."

I am very lucky to have  Osho, shri Ravi Shankar, Murari Bapu, and Dalai Lama as my masters . And above all, Shri SaiBaba is my Lord, My master and my friend.

Once again I wish you all a great Gurupurnima .

Om Sai Ram ...!

Yours
Vijay

:::STORY ::: ::: Acceptance :::

 

Once upon a time there lived a stone cutter ,in a small village. All day long he worked hard, cutting the hard stones and making the shape which were needed by his customers. His hands were hard and his clothes were dirty.

One day he went out to work on a big stone. It was very hard to work and the sun was very hot. After spending several hours cutting the stone, he sat down in the shade and soon fell asleep.

After sometime, he heard sound of somebody coming. Walking up he saw a long procession of people. There were many soldiers and attendants and in the middle, in a palanquin, carried by strong people at the king .

How wonderful it must be to be the great king thought the stone cutter . How happy I would be if i were the king instead of a poor stone cutter. As he said these words, a strange thing happened. The stone cutter found himself dressed in silk clothes and shining jewels. His hands were soft and he was sitting in a comfortable palanquin. He looked through the curtains and thought, How easy it is to be a king, these people are here to serve me.

The procession moved on and the sun grew hot. The stone cutter ,now the king ,became too warm for comfort. He asked the procession to stop so that he could rest for some time .

At once the chief of the soldiers bent before the king and said Your Majesty, only this morning you swore to have me hanged to death if we did not reach the palace before the sun set. The stone cutter felt sorry for him and ordered the procession to go on its way again.

As the afternoon wore on, the sun grew hotter, and the king became more and more uncomfortable. I am powerful, it is true, but how more powerful the sun is, he thought I would rather be the sun than a king .

At once, he became the sun, shining down on the earth.
His new power was hard to control. He shone too strongly, he burned up the fields with his rays and turned the ocean into vapour and formed a great cloud which covered the land.

But no matter how hard he shone, he could not see through the clouds. It is obvious that the clouds are even stronger and more powerful than sun said the stone cutter, now the sun, I would rather be a cloud.

Suddenly he found himself turned into a huge dark cloud.
He started using his new power. He poured rain down on the fields and caused floods. All the trees and houses were swept away but a boulder, which once he had been cutting when he was a stone cutter was unmoved and unchanged.

However much he poured down on the stone it did not move.
Why that rock is more powerful than I am said the stone cutter now a cloud. Only a stone cutter could change the rock by his skill. How I wish I were a stone-cutter.

No sooner he said the words that he found himself sitting on a stone with hard and rough hands. He picked up his tools and set to work on a boulder, happily.

10 ways to recharge ourselves and our motivation

::: Life management tools :::

My dear souls,

Achieving goals is not a matter of possibility; it’s a matter of motivating yourself to focus on the right things.  You know you should be doing something, but sometimes you just don’t feel like doing anything.  This stagnation can last a long time if you don’t head it off and take action.

Here are some daily motivation tricks that work for me:

1.  Get started!
2.  Find and use your positive voice.
3.  Spend time with people who inspire you.
4.  Start a friendly competition.
5.  Think about how far you have come.
6.  Embrace failure as a positive learning experience.
7.  Review, refine and breakdown your goals..
9.  Visualize your successful outcome in great detail.
10.  Spend some time every day working on a passion.

So make time to focus on doing something you really want to do.  Take an hour break and work on something that’s meaningful to you.  Engage yourself in a meaningful personal project, or pull the trigger on starting something you’ve wanted to do for a long time, but haven’t yet had the resolve to do.  Do so, and your motivation and happiness will skyrocket.

Love, Light and Hugs

LIFE MANAGEMENT : ::: 12 Life Lessons : The journey is the reward :::

LIFE MANAGEMENT : 

12 Life Lessons : The journey is the reward ::

1. Everyone has the same basic wants and needs.
2. What you do every day is what’s most important.
3. You can’t always be agreeable.
4.  You’re not perfect, but you’re great at being you.
5. You DON’T want perfect people in your life.
6. Life is change.  You must embrace it.
7. Your scars are symbols of your growth.
8. The truth is always the best choice.
9. It’s the small, free things that matter most in life.
10. Everyone’s story is more complicated than it seems.
11. Giving up and moving on are two different things.
12. You are not alone in being alone.

And remember, sometimes a break from your routine is the very thing you need.  Sometimes you need to take a step back to see things clearly.  Traveling is one of the best ways I know to remain psychologically grounded.  If you’ve been stuck in an emotional rut for awhile, without any positive change, perhaps it’s time to take a short hiatus – get out of town for a few days, experience something new, and stimulate your mind.
