HAPPY CHRITSMAS-Cleaning the cradle of Conciousness !

Sri Sri Paramahansa Yogananda

I will prepare for the coming of the Omnipresent Baby Christ

by cleaning the cradle of my consciousness,

now rusty with selfishness, indifference, and sense attachments;

and by polishing it with deep, daily, divine meditation,

introspection, and discrimination.

I will remodel the cradle with the dazzling soul-qualities of

brotherly love, humbleness, faith,… Continue

The Pernicious Mirage of Conquests and Search

The centre keeps on shifting, the conquest keeps on going.

The wild goose chase doesn’t even stops at the death bed, where the lingering discontent is eminent from the eyes of the moribund subject which keep on shouting “Not now Life, I have yet to accomplish many things out of you”.

Another wave is created which acts as the precursor for the further waves. Even if you are Bill gates and you have established a Global Software giant called Microsoft, yours basket is yet not… Continue

THOUGHTS CREATE BEHAVIOR

THOUGHTS CREATE BEHAVIOR

by Vic Johnson

(excerpted from Day by Day with James Allen)

"Cause and effect are as absolute and undeviating in the hidden realm of thought as in the world of visible and material things." - As A Man Thinketh

We remember from science class Newton's physical law that "every action creates an equal and opposite reaction." Or, every cause has an effect. And because it is a law, it is absolute and undeviating. It always happens - in every… Continue

GIVING

GIVING

by Zig Ziglar

Marian Anderson got her start by scrubbing floors for ten cents an hour so that she could buy a pawnshop violin. The church she attended recognized her rare talent and raised money for a professional voice teacher to work with her. When the teacher pronounced her ready, she went to New York where critics crucified her. She returned home to regroup. Her mother and her church encouraged her and paid for more lessons.

Because of the intense… Continue

TIME MANAGEMENT

TIME MANAGEMENT

WHEN I BECOME BIG MAN !!

WHEN I BECOME BIG MAN!

My dress code undergoes a change,

And people around appear outdated!

Can go anywhere anytime in big car,

cycle, scooter owners become inferior!

My own bungalow has every comfort,

No longer the need of any caring neighbor!

So confined in my closed A/C room,

Unaware of the sunrise and fresh breeze!

Social recognition and praise is showered,

And I feel superior… Continue

WISDOM

Subhuti, do not think that when one gives rise to the highest, most fulfilled, awakened mind one needs to see all objects of mind as nonexistent, cut off from life. Please do not think in that way. One who gives rise to the awakened mind does not deny objects or say that they are nonexistent. One who gives rise to the awakened mind should know that what is called a self or a person, a living being or a life span, is not so in essence but only in concept. The names self, person, living being, or… Continue

EINSTEIN’S FORMULA FOR SUCCESS
