Dear all,

Good evening to all of u and have a divine blessed New Year 2011 ahead …..

If we take a look at the world around us, we have a million reasons to be proud about, as the amazing human race. After all, have we not landed on the Moon? Have we not sent Pathfinder to Mars? Gene-mapping and cloning have become a reality. Hats off to the exponential progress made in the realm of science!

Nevertheless, if we contemplate for a moment on the question, "Have…

sometimes . . . .

sometimes

sometimes we look in

and we say “ i am ok”

and we know that we are lying

we are

maladjusted

malcontents

with malice

as we are still vying

to find that path

to lead us to our happy, happy lane

RISE ABOVE THE TWO MOODS

Dear All,

In vedanta there are only two kinds of moods - joy, exultation or exhilaration and grief or depression. Now there is joy and five minutes later there is depression - the currents alternate. They belong to the sad-urmis (six waves, i.e. grief, delusion, hunger, thirst, decay and death). People of gloomy moods attract gloomy thoughts from others and from the akasic (etheric) records in the…

On the Way

Man of the Tao I am,
But am not a Taoist,
Man who walks the way
And never expects to complete.
For the way is my journey,
The way is all my life.
I love the way,
And with that, put my expectations out of sight.

The Making of Peace

A lot of people tell me they love to live in peace, and the thing is that most of them actually believe they do, how far is the truth.

I went to a Vipassana workshop once, where the main teacher said he was enlightened. Now I understand that if a person says he is something then he is not, since why would he have the need to say it out loud if he feels that he is already? Back then I didn't understand it, but I had a great need of checking people for what they say they are, and yet… Continue

Inner Peace

Hello, I'm here to speak to you about Peace.

Not peace between people, and neither among countries, but with the only person we have no choice but to live with until the end of our lives, the very same person who is sitting in your chair. Look down for a moment, recognize the feet? The hands? Yes, with yourselves.

My biggest dream since I can remember myself was to live in peace with myself. To know it wide and open and to know even better to pass it on so other people could…
