You are the Light Inside!

 Dear Friends

 Happy Night

 Whatever you are physically...male or female, strong or weak, ill or healthy--
all those things matter less than what your heart contains. 
If you have the soul of a warrior, you are a warrior. All those other things, 
they are the glass that contains the lamp, but you are the light inside.
Cassandra Clare.

 Sharing a Zen Story
One day one person climbed up a mountain where a hermit woman
was meditating. She had taken refuge and was asked:

- “What are you doing here alone in such a solitude place?”
 To which she replied: 

- “I have lots of work !”

- “And how can you have so much work? 
I don't see anything around you here...?”

- “I have to train two hawks and two eagles, assure two rabbits,
discipline one snake, motivate a donkey and tame a lion.....”

- “And, where have they gone that I don't see them?”

- “I have them all inside here within me...!!

✓ The hawks stare on everything that is presented to me, good or bad,
I have to work on them to see only good things. They are my eyes.

✓ The two eagles with their claws hurt and destroy,
I have to train them not to hurt. They are my hands.

✓ Rabbits want to go where they want, at the same time they
do not want to face difficult situations, I have to teach them to be calm
even if there is suffering or stumbling.  They are my feet.

✓ The donkey is always tired, stubborn and does not want to carry the
load each time I walk. That is my body!

✓ The most difficult to tame is the "snake." 
Although it is locked in a strong cage with 32 bars,
it is always ready to sting, bite and poison anyone nearby.
I have to discipline it...  that's my tongue.

✓ I also have one Lion.  Oh ... how proud, vain, he thinks that
"he is the king." I have to tame him. And that's my ego.
So you see, my friend, I have  lots of work..... “
  
 Think & Reflect ! 🤔

So Stop Criticising, Evaluating n Judging others ! Let’s First work on ourselves !!
🌹Let's adopt this in our spiritual pursuit🌹

😍Dear Friends😍 💕Happy Evening💕     💙Life is constantly changing. There is nothing permanent in life. We experience both good and bad situations. But nothing lost forever. So change is the order of the day.💙   💚We see many things in nature and experience many changes around us For example: A seed when planted in the soil undergoes changes Within a few years it will be a huge tree. Today’s just born infant tomorrow’s young boy or girl. The journey of all plants and animals begins with a seed. A tiny seed embraces change. It adapts itself to the ever changing life situations so beautifully.💚   💙Life is constantly changing and no situation is permanent.

See Good in Others

❤Dear Friends❤ 🌻I wish you a very Happy Night🌻   💚In the fast changing world, we interact with people face to face, through email or phone or through any social media platform.💚   💙When we interact, it is normal we may like some, we may judge some and we may not like a few.💙   💚When we don’t like some people, behavioural scientists are telling that our mind is biased about a few. They also say that our mind is negative and not willing to accept others. Biased mind will lead to prejudice and other mental problems.💚   💙We are not able to see the good in others because our heart is not open to understand their points of view.  Our mind is closed too and it is moving in the single track.💙   💚Our mind is not trained to think the way others want.  Closed mind set is not good for building strong human bondage. So we need to change and transform.💚   💙If we want to progress, we need to be positive with a growth mindset. Before judg...

Imagine To Innovate

😍Dear Friends😍 🌹Happy Evening🌹   🧡“The man who has no imagination has no wings” Mohammed Ali🧡 💚Our life is limited because of the lack of imagination. Imagination is the key to productive life.  Children have tremendous imagination power. They have very good memory power💚 💙Adults cannot imagine the way children imagine. So we stop dreaming.  So we don’t progress. Imagination is the foundation for innovation Knowledge has grown vast because of imagination of few great scientists and thinkers.💙 💙Our growth and progress will get stopped if we limit our imagination. Greater the power of imagination, greater is the ability to solve the problems of life. Our imagination motivates us to move towards our dreams. If we don’t have imagination, we cannot realize our dreams.💙 💜Scientists and great thinkers have high imagination. Therefore, they are able to put forth theories, postulates, principles and great thoughts...
