Make The Best Use Of 

What Is In Your

The Rest As It happens.

 

Happy 2011 to You All

Glory to God in highest heaven,
Who unto man His Son hath given;
While angels sing with tender mirth,
A glad new year to all the earth.
~Martin Luther

Be always at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbors, and let each new year find you a better man.  

~ Benjamin Franklin

New Year's Day is every man's birthday.

  ~Charles Lamb

Year's end is neither an end nor a beginning but a going on, with all the wisdom that experience can instill in us.  

 ~Hal Borland

 

The object of a New Year is not that we should have a new year.  

It is that we should have

a new soul and 

a new nose; 

new feet, 

a new backbone, 

new ears, 

and new eyes.  

Unless a particular man made 

New Year resolutions, he would make no resolutions. 

Unless a man starts 

afresh about things, 

he will certainly 

do nothing effective. 

~G.K. Chesterton

Don't look back

Don't look back—forward, infinite energy, infinite enthusiasm, infinite daring, and infinite patience—then alone can great deeds be accomplished.

Om ! O gods, may we hear auspicious words with the ears;

While engaged in sacrifices,

May we see auspicious things with the eyes;

While praising the gods with steady limbs,

May we enjoy a life that is beneficial to the gods.

May Indra of ancient fame be auspicious to us;

May the supremely rich (or all-knowing) Pusa (god of the earth)

Be propitious to us;

May Garuda, the destroyer of evil,

Be well disposed towards us;

May Brihaspati ensure our welfare.

Om ! Peace ! Peace ! Peace ! 

 

 

 

He asked water, and she gave him milk; she brought forth butter in a lordly dish.

 

 

 

 

Peace of mind makes the body healthy, but jealousy is like a cancer.

 A faithful friend is the medicine of life .

 

 

Give ear to my prayer, O God; and hide not thyself from my supplication. (Psalms 55:1)

 

 

He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city.

He asked water, and she gave him milk; she brought forth butter in a lordly dish.

Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink;
nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body more than raiment.

  

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 

 

Merry Christmas To All My Friends :)

Indranil,With Heart Full Of Love.

Light,Peace and Blessings From Lord.

"Anyone Who Has Never 

Made A Mistake 

Has Never Tried Anything New."

~ Albert Einstein

Whose Support Do You Stand In Need Of?

 

"Learning and wisdom are superfluities, the surface glitter merely, but it is the heart that is the seat of all power.
It is not in the brain but in the heart that the Atman, possessed of knowledge, power, and activity, has its seat.
Your Atman is the support of the universe—whose support do you stand in need of?
Wait with patience and love and strength. If helpers are not ready now, they will come in time.
Why should we be in a hurry?
The real working force of all great work is in its almost unperceived beginnings."

~ Swami Vivekananda

Where Can We Go To Find God

"Where Can We Go To Find God 
If We Cannot See Him 
In Our Own Hearts 
And In Every Living Being."
Swami Vivekananda

You Are The Creator Of The Universe

"There Is No Help For You Outside Of Yourself; You Are The Creator Of The Universe. Like The SilkWorm You Have Built A Cocoon Around Yourself…. Burst Your Own Cocoon And Come Out Aw The Beautiful Butterfly, As The Free Soul. Then Alone You Will See Truth." 

~ Swami Vivekananda 

Never Think There Is Anything Impossible For The Soul.

Each Soul Is Potentially Divine

"Each soul is potentially divine. The goal is to manifest this divinity within by controlling nature, external and internal. Do this either by work, or worship or psychic control or philosophy – by one or more or all of these and be free." ~Swami Vivekananda

You Will Be Perfect

 

"Are you unselfish? 

That is the question.

If you are, you will be perfect without reading a single religious book, without going into a single church or temple"

~ Swami Vivekananda

"Everything that makes for oneness is TRUTH.Love is TRUTH,hatred is FALSE,Because hatred makes for multiplicity."~ Swami Vivekananda

Make The Man Grow

"The ideal of all education, all training, should be this man-making. But, instead of that, we are always trying to polish up the outside. What use in polishing up the outside when there is no inside? The end and aim of all training is to make the man grow. The man who influences, who throws his magic, as it were, upon his fellow-beings, is a dynamo of power, and when that man is ready, he can do anything and everything he likes; that personality put upon anything will make it work."

~ Swami Vivekananda

What is called Love...

What is called Love...

                      " The Power of love is so overwhelming that even in its skewed form as lust, it impells two people to come together in the name of love. 
 
                      Genuine love essentially commits itself to first giving or offering best from the heart with an attitude of pleasing the recipient.

                      

                       Lust wants to take from others, lust feeds on feverish praise, dominance and recognition, where as love maintains detachment from selfish gain.

                      Both gold and Iron sell in market as metals but a few grams of lustrous soft rare metal costs more than a tonne of its hard and dull counterpart (Iron), similarly selfless love doesnot lose its unprecedented value just because it is rarely experienced. 

                        

                        Pretentious words and vain promises are favourite disguises of lust, love on the other hand wears garb of spirituality, speak language of purity, walks path of humility, adopts code of tolerance, being willing to sacrifice everything for welfare of the beloved.

                     Gentle love is invincible, whereas brutal lust because of its inflamable nature burns to ashes all traces of compassion, reason and empathy, when lust turns to frustration all illusion, false attraction and attachment turns into retaliation in form of abuse, defamation and destruction. 

                  THERES NO TRACE OF LOVE ,until and unless one is able to descriminate between true love and deceptive lust, one is unable to understand that the ardent lover of God is fully prepared to undergo any kind of adversity birth after birth to Attain the Lotus Feet of the Lord."

Never neglect the little things

“However many holy words you read,However many you speak,What good will they do you If you do not act on upon them?” ~ Buddha

“Never neglect the little things. Never skimp on that extra effort, that additional few minutes, that soft word of praise or thanks, that delivery of the very best that you can do. It does not matter what others think, it is of prime importance, however, what you think about you. You can never do your best, which should always be your trademark, if you are cutting corners and shirking responsibilities. You are special. Act it. Never neglect the little things.” 

~ Og Mandino

Love and Time

Once upon a time, there was an island where all the feelings lived: Happiness, Sadness, Knowledge, and all of the others, including Love. One day it was announced to the feelings that the island would sink, so all constructed boats and left. Except for Love.

Love was the only one who stayed. Love wanted to hold out until the last possible moment.

When the island had almost sunk, Love decided to ask for help.

Richness was passing by Love in a grand boat. Love said,
"Richness, can you take me with you?"
Richness answered, "No, I can't. There is a lot of gold and silver in my boat. There is no place here for you."

Love decided to ask Vanity who was also passing by in a beautiful vessel. "Vanity, please help me!"
"I can't help you, Love. You are all wet and might damage my boat," Vanity answered.

Sadness was close by so Love asked, "Sadness, let me go with you."
"Oh . . . Love, I am so sad that I need to be by myself!"

Happiness passed by Love, too, but she was so happy that she did not even hear when Love called her.

Suddenly, there was a voice, "Come, Love, I will take you." It was an elder. So blessed and overjoyed, Love even forgot to ask the elder where they were going. When they arrived at dry land, the elder went her own way. Realizing how much was owed the elder,

Love asked Knowledge, another elder, "Who Helped me?"
"It was Time," Knowledge answered.
"Time?" asked Love. "But why did Time help me?"
Knowledge smiled with deep wisdom and answered, "Because only Time is capable of understanding how valuable Love is."
