Making A Difference

Making A Difference A man was walking down a deserted beach at sunset. As he walked along, he saw a boy in the distance, he noticed that the boy kept leaning down, picking something up and throwing it out into the water. Time and again he kept hurling things out into the ocean. As he approached closer, he noticed that the boy was picking up starfish that had washed up on the beach, and, one at a time, he was throwing them back into the water. The man was puzzled. He approached the boy and said “Hi, I was wondering what you are doing.” “Hi, I’m throwing these starfish back into the ocean. You see its low tide right now and all of these starfish have been washed up onto the shore. If I don’t throw them back into the sea, they’ll die up here from lack of oxygen.” “I understand,” man replied, “but there must be thousands of starfish on this beach. You can’t possibly get to all of them. There are simply too many. And don’t you realize this is probably happening on hundreds of beaches all u

Namasthe Chachu, Today I was reading about Swami Vivekananda and noted down all the doubts that I encoutered. * He was regarded as a srutidhara. -- What does srutidhara mean? SRUTHI IS SPEAKING – DHARA IS NON-STOP,, MEANS HE WAS A GOOD PUBLIC SPEAKER. * His initial beliefs were shaped by Brahmo concepts, which include belief in a formless God and deprecation of the worship of idols. -- So, does Brahmo Samaj believes that God is formless? Does formless mean God doesn't take any form? Brahmo Samaj believes only in Single God Brahma? BRAHMA – ATMA.. * His first introduction to Ramakrishna occurred in a literature class in General Assembly's Institution, when he heard Principal Reverend W. Hastie lecturing on William Wordsworth's poem The Excursion and the poet's nature-mysticism. In the course of explaining the word trance in the poem, Hastie told his students that if they wanted to know the real meaning of it, they should go to Ramakrishna of Dakshineswar. Th

120116 - vidhyadhari - feeling DULL

Vidhyadhari : Sir, you have written in “LIFE made SIMPLE” that we should not ask anybody to evaluate us, but our close one know us better no? so why not give them a chance to evaluate us and improve ourself if required? DrTPS : Simple Living is living as what we are. Evaluation of others will make us not Simple. We superficially change for them. We don’t like it too. SELF evaluation and knowing what others expect from us is what is required. We know what is that expected from us by those who are close to us. Else how can they be close to us? How can you be close to them? Vidhyadhari : Yes. I love it. They are not close to me and I am not close to them. But there are some people who don’t expect anything from us but only wants us to the best like our parents and guru. Isnt it good for us to be evaluated by them? DrTPS : Don’t you know, wjhat your parents expect from you? Be a daughter to them, simply simple. Be with them, you will know. That will be the natural knowledge o

Do what you think

Do what you think Happiness or sadness comes with little and big things we think more than we do. What we do is not important, most of the time what we do is not that fill the mind (manas). Our manas and buddhi can make us to do activity. Things that satisfy are the one done with the consent of manas not with buddhi. At times an activity is important for self that is suggested by manas. But we restrict acting on it as we give importance to the feelings of those who mean a lot to you. Each one has their own favorite paths and these are like a turning and twisting paths, it has various forms and colors. One can’t have happiness or can’t be happy in his entire life; many a times one is forced to do something against own desire. It may be true at the time of action that is justified by the manas; soon after which is unjustified by the same manas and buddhi. This makes the athma to be in pain. Such atma will only survive in troubles. Each of us loves to be creative and be in diff

MEDITATION IN ACTION Secret of holding measureable wealth is to reduce needs. We had wealthiest human beings ultimately who give away vast amounts of the money that they have acquired in a lifetime. Famous and powerful person hiding in their homes without meeting anyone were also around. Knowledgeable wise people had spent life to learn and teach must have stopped all their activity and get into path of salvation through meditation! This suggests that the motivation behind all their efforts was not the pursuit of knowledge, wealth or fame; but something else. Find some time in silence and communicate to self. It helps us understand and realize the eternal truths about the self. This realization is joining with God and understanding the world. In silence one gets the true values of the soul in peace, love and joy which make one strong. One learns to comprehend and express sincerely and powerfully. Silence is not the absence of thoughts in the beginning. It creates conflicts
