कहा भाग रहो हो, तनिक ठहर जाओ

Image
तुम किसको ढूढ़ रहो हो, अनावश्यक किधर भटक रहो हो? ठहर जाओ । जिसे तुम ढूढ़ने जा रहे हो, वह वहां है हि नहीं, तो मिलेगा कैसे, फिर तुम कहोगे कि मैंने इतना सारा यत्न किया, फिर भी मैंने उसे नहीं पाया। जीवन व्यर्थ हो गया। व्यर्थ की भाग-दौड़ हो गई। हर तरफ, हर प्रयत्न में, मुझे निराशा ही निराशा हाथ लगी।     तुम समझ रहो कि तुम चल रहे हो, आगे बढ़ रहे हो, लोग तुमसे पीछे छूटते जा रहे है । मंजिल को तुम जल्द ही पा  लोगे, नहीं, यह तुम्हारा भ्रम है। तुम्हारी अंततः मंजिल चलने से नहीं, बल्कि अपने-आप में ठहर जाने से प्राप्त होगी।  तुम सुख की प्राप्ति के लिए, न जाने कहा-कहा जाते हो, क्या-क्या करते हो। तुम्हे कुछ क्षण के लिए भ्रम होता है कि तुम सुख की प्राप्ति कर रहे हो, लेकिन तुम्हे यह आभास नहीं होता कि इस क्षणिक सुख की पटल पर तुम शाश्वत दुःख की विजारोपण कर रहे हो ।  ईश्वर की प्राप्ति के लिए तुम तीर्थ  जाते हो, धन खर्च करते हो, समय खर्च करते हो, लेकिन ईश्वर मिलने की बात तो दूर, तुम्हे तो वहां  ईश्वर का एहसास भी नहीं होता। गलत विधि अपना रहे हो...

Do What You are Made for:: The Way of Happiness

Image
You have decided to do something that you want, but due to some obstruction or commitment, you are not able to.  Do not lose your heart and ask genuinely to yourself,” Whether you want to do it”. Still the answer is coming as YES; continue it, without thinking about the immediate result. Your predominant purpose is to do the things what you like and what you are made for, the matter of result is secondary. A slight effort towards it makes a huge different in your life, it gives a solid reason to live your life as a human. It helps you to awaken your soul and release your dormant energy. We have two kinds of energies- generalized and specific. Generalized energy is good for survival on this earth as per the situation and demand of the time. The specific energy remains dormant. It is reserved for the specific work on the earth. It is released when it demanded. Only this energy has the capacity to create a fortune for you. Few people who release this energy reach the acme of ...

Recognize your value- you are here not to suffer

Image
A person named Raghu is a talented person. He is so sharp that he learns anything very easily. It is good for any employer to have an employee like him, sharp, skilled, obedient, sincere, honest and multi-talented. One day Raghu observed that the people with less knowledge, talent and skill are supervising him and holding higher position and earning more than him. Many times he tried to find the answer of it, but he could not. His fear of losing his job could not allow him to think anything more than his job and survival. The people with intense fear cannot understand their own value. If you do not understand your value, you will always sell yourself low. You would have low self-esteem, position and income. And with good talent and skill and low self-esteem can make you a good servant not an owner. Your talent, skill and hard work are used for profit of others. You create fortune for others and sheer survival for you. Raghu becomes inquisitive to understand the reason of no...

Why an Elephant head to lord Ganesha, Why not of other animals?

Image
In Hinduism, Lord Ganesha has elephant head, he is the deity, who is worshiped first before any ceremony and any other gods and goddesses. We know the story why and how the head of Ganesha was chopped and replaced with an elephant head by his father, Lord Shiva. Why lord Shiva replaced the head of impertinent Ganesha with the head of an elephant, why not of other animals or head of any other human? No mythological story exist without any logic. What is the logic behind this head replacement? The chopping of the head and replacing with the elephant head is the significance of the replacing your thought with the bigger one. Lord Ganesha could not recognize his father and fought with his father. It is the indication of ignoring the divinity. In order to make lord Ganesha a divine one, he replaced his head with bigger and intelligent one. Again, why elephant head? For that, let us understand the brain of an elephant.  The brain of the elephant is the biggest brain among all livin...

Image
Rama broke the Shiva`s bow to win the hand of Sita in the competition was organized by King Janak for the marriage of his daughter Sita. The competition was only to string the bow not to break. When the bow was broken, Parashuram walked in and asked for the reason of breaking the bow. Parashuram was not happy on breaking the bow. Hence, an argument took place at the time of the marriage of Sita. Due to this argument, king Janak became unhappy. After marriage, Sita and Ram reached Ayodhya. On reaching Ayodhya, reluctantly, king Darshath asked Rama for 14 years forest exile to keep the words of his second wife Kaikeyi. King Darshath was not happy with this decision, and due to this distress and culpability, he died. Mistakenly, king Darshath had killed the parent devotee Sarvan Kumar. Hence, parents of Sarvan Kumar were not happy. Son of Kaikeyi, Bharat, refused to be a king of Ayodhya, for what she had asked Rama`s forest exile. Hence Kaikeyi was not happy. Bharat was not happy with...

Suicides in The Ramayana and The Mahabharta

“It is better to die than dishonor” – Bhagwat Geeta (2:34) Suicide is considered a sin. In Christianity, a different graveyard is allotted for those who die by suicide. No funeral rites are performed for them. According to Sec. 309 of IPC 1860, committing suicide is a criminal offense. When a person is caught in an attempt of committing suicide, instead of showing sympathy, that person may be sent to the imprisonment for one year. Why it is so ..? The most of the IPCs (Indian Penal Code) of our constitution were made in England in 1860 when India was under British rule. The British follows Christianity and the Christianity is the religion of commandments. In this way, in this religion, suicide became a sin, and in law, a crime. But in the Hindu tradition – voluntarily, giving up mortal body is seen differently. In the Mahabharata, old parents of the Kaurava and old mother of Pandava went to the forest.  They engulfed by a forest fire. They did not ...

Mangesh woke-up in the morning and got ready for the office, before leaving for the office, he stood before a mirror and gave a pep-up talk…”I am a diamond…” and happily reached to the office. One of his sub-ordinates met him and said.. “Sir, you are a platinum…”. He mumbled,” I was just thinking of myself a diamond… I am more precious than that … I am a platinum…”. With this attitude he started his work. After some time, his boss called him, and said, “ you know, … you are a copper…”. He got confused whether he was a diamond, a platinum or a copper. With this confusion, he reached his home. His wife understood that something has happened with him. In front of your wife, neither you can express your happiness nor sadness. In both the cases, you have to give the explanation which is more perilous than expressing your emotions. His wife asked the reason for his upset. He explained what had happened.  She shown the sympathy and said, “ how can your boss call you a copper, this is ...
