# 118. சாதனை அவசியம்.
கழுத்தளவு தண்ணீரில் நின்று கொண்டு தண்ணீருக்காகக் கத்துகிறோம். குருவின் அருள் கிடைக்காவிட்டால் வைராக்கியம் உண்டாகாது. உண்மையை உணர முடியாது. ஆத்மாவில் வசிக்க இயலாது. ஆனால் பயிற்சி (சாதனை )அவசியம்
 
# 119. மௌனம்.
அருளே தொடக்கத்திலும், மத்தியிலும், இறுதியிலும் இருப்பது. கடவுள், அருள், குரு, எல்லாம் நித்தியமாய் எங்கும் பரந்த ஒன்றையே குறிக்கும். அருளின் மிக உயர்ந்த வடிவம் மௌனம். அதுவே உயர்ந்த உபதேசமும் ஆகும்.
 
Our prosperity or destruction is on the tip of our tongue, gathering and widening
of friendship and relations there on it. The tip of our tongue has also the capability
to stop or check us from our progression and lead us to no-where in a matter of seconds.

Religion - a Matter of the Heart: "True religion is not a narrow dogma. It is not external observance. It is faith in God and living in the presence of God. It means faith in a future life, in truth and Ahimsa…. Religion is a matter of the heart. No physical inconvenience can warrant abandonment of one's own religion."

MK GANDHI
 
Among a man's many good possessions, A good command of speech has no equal. Prosperity and ruin issue from the power of the tongue. Therefore, guard yourself against thoughtless speech.


​
 
Among the wealthy, compassionate men claim the richest wealth, For material wealth is possessed by even contemptible men. Find and follow the good path and be ruled by compassion. For if the various ways are examined, compassion will prove the means to liberation.
Tirukkural 25: 241-242


​
 
Non-violence is the greatest force at the disposal of mankind. It is mightier than the mightiest weapon of destruction devised by the ingenuity of man.
Mahatma Gandhi


​
 
As rivers flow into the ocean but cannot make the vast ocean overflow, so flow the streams of the sense-world into the sea of peace that is the sage. But this is not so with the desirer of desires.
Bhagavad Gita 2:70


​
 
The supreme Reality stands revealed in the consciousness of those who have conquered themselves. They live in peace, alike in cold and heat, pleasure and pain, praise and blame.
Bhagavad Gita 6:7


​
 
Even more wretched than a learned man's poverty Is the unlearned man's wealth. Though humbly born, a learned man's nobility Transcends that of the unlearned noble man.
Tirukkural 41: 408-409
 
This lover of love sings: "Mother! Mother! Mother! Who can fathom your mystery, Your eternal play of love with love? You are divine madness, O goddess, Your love the brilliant crown of madness. Please make this poor poet madly wealthy with the infinite treasure of your love."
Ramprasad


​
 
When he is seen within us and without, He sets right all doubts and dispels the pain Of wrong actions committed in the past.
Mundaka Upanishad


​
 
Meditate on the Self. One without two, Exalted awareness. Give up the illusion Of the separate self. Give up the feeling, Within or without, That you are this or that.
Ashtavakra Gita 1:13


​
 
We say Good Bye on many occasions. But not that Good-Bye, which we say, are
the ones that are never said again or repeated or never explained at the last breath
of a person.

# 120. சாது சேவை.

தனித்து நம்மால் செயல்பட முடியாமைக்குக் காரணம் வலிமையற்ற மனமே. அருள் தேவை தான். சாது சேவை அத்தனை நல்கும். ஈஸ்வரன் அருளால் தான் நாம் ஈஸ்வரனைப் பற்றி எண்ணுகிறோம்.

இறையருள் இல்லை என்று ஏன் முறையிட வேண்டும்?வருத்தப்பட என்ன இருக்கிறது? ஆத்மாவில் ஆழ்ந்திருப்பதைவிட்டு ஏன் அழுகிறீர்கள்?
 
I have also heard that ...

Only the wisest and the stupidest give a free hand to their spouses.

The wisest because he has other more important things to do than

argue with his wife and the stupidest because he has realized that his

wife thinks better than he does.

All the rest try to become the jockey all the time.

That is WHAT makes the married life so much more interesting and

challenging!

We cannot take or accept everything as a flaw which we notice in our life, perhaps
they are mere teaching of lessons. In fact, the stage of growth is only a process
of trial and error method for everyone, sometimes, it becomes an experiment too.
The unsuccessful experiments are as much a part of the process we undergo,
as the experiments that eventually function.

Belief in Hinduism (Sanatana Dharma): "I call myself a Sanatani Hindu, because I believe in the Vedas, the Upanishads, the Puranas, and all that goes by the name of Hindu scripture, and therefore in avataras and rebirth; I believe in the varnashrama dharma in a sense, in my opinion strictly Vedic but not in its presently popular crude sense; I believe in the protection of cow … I do not disbelieve in murti puja." (Young India: June 10, 1921).

Hindu Proverb
There is nothing noble about being superior to some other man. The true nobility is in being superior to your previous self.
 
Mahatma Gandhi
There is nothing that wastes the body like worry, and one who has any faith in God should be ashamed to worry about anything whatsoever.
 
Unknown Author
There is only one success - to be able to spend your life in your own way.
 
Goethe
Things which matter most must never be at the mercy of things which matter least.
