Misery is a remedy, where joy is a melody
For
Misery makes a man humble while joy makes him proud.

BEST USE OF RICHES
The best use to which riches could be put
to is for
charitable purposes.
Otherwise, it is just dust and useless.
“Riches without charity are worth nothing,
they are blessing only to him who makes them
a blessing to
others.”
BALANCE OF MIND
Whatever the favourable
or
adverse circumstances you may be facing,
you should not lose your balance.
or
adverse circumstances you may be facing,
you should not lose your balance.
“Do not lose balance either in pain or in pleasure.
Do not befriend one too much nor show unfriendliness to any.”
Do not befriend one too much nor show unfriendliness to any.”
HATRED
Hatred is increased by reciprocal hatred,
an on the other
hand,
can be extinguished by love so that hatred passes into love.
“He who lives according to the guidance of occasion
will try
to repay the hatred of other with love and generously,
“ he who wishes to
avenge injuries by hating
in return does indeed live in misery.
HATRED
Of all the things, hatred should not find any place in one’s
heart.
“Clean your heart of malice and cherish no hatred not even,
against your enemies but embrace all things and beings with
kindness.”
GOD
You may have a number of appointments to keep,
Every day.
Never forget to keep your appointment with God.
FREE MAN
The truly free man is the one who will turn down
an invitation to dinner without giving an excuse.
EORNAMENT, SECURITY AND TONIC
The best ornament is humility,
The richest wealth is wisdom:
The best security is faith;
The best tonic is laughter.
HIGHEST BLISS
Which is the highest bliss?
There is no fire like lust and
No crime like hatred.
There is no ill like weak body
and no bliss highest than peace.
POWER OF HUMANS
There is nothing that cannot be overcome in life.
“Let man overcome hate by love,
let him overcome evil by good
let him overcome greed by liberty
the liar by truth.”NARROW MINDEDNESS
“Narrow mindedness should be overcome to make
One’s life worth living”
Purification of mind means nothing
but annihilation of the
ego centric idea and removal of selfishness from mind.
The more the mind expands,
the more are the egocentric ideas
annihilated.”
CHARITY
No one gets bankrupt by giving in charity.
More the water is drawn from the well,
The more it gets cleaner and sweet.
WISEMAN
Wiseman is he who remains unaffected
by ups and downs of the
world
As sky remains unaffected by rain and dust.
YOGA
The aim of yoga is to yoke one with one’s supreme nature.
“Milk in a vessel continues to boil and bubble so long as
there is fire underneath.
But when the fire is extinguished, its simmering stops.
Likewise, the man practicing yoga out of curiosity and
abandons it later gains nothing.
Steadfastness in yoga is essential.”
FORTUNE
An heir to a big fortune
does not necessarily
become a
blessed one.
It may mostly ruin him.
“A fortune is usually the greatest of misfortunes to
children.
It takes the muscles out to limbs, the brain out of the
heart.
In this world, it is not what we take up
but what we give up
that makes us rich.”
FRIENDSHIP
Friendship is the elixir for one’s life at all times.
Be it in prosperity or adversity.
Friendship improves happiness, and abates misery,
by doubling our joy, and dividing our grief.
MISTAKE
When you make a mistake do not look back at it for long.
“Take the reason of the thing into your own mind and
then look forward.
Mistakes are lessons of wisdom.
The past cannot be changed. The future is yet in our power.
HAPPINESS
Happiness is only good.
The place to be is here.
The time to be happy is now.
The way to be happy is to help others.
GREATEST PLEASURE
The world’s greatest pleasure is in sharing what we have
with the unfortunate:
“Giving is the highest expression of potency. In the very
act of giving,
I experience my strength, my wealth, my poser……
I experience myself as overflowing, spending, alive.
Hence joyous.”
FEELING LOW
If you are feeling low, don’t despair.
The sun has a sinking spell every night,
But it comes back up every morning.
FRIENDSHIP
Friendship is not a one-time affair but a continuous one.
“If a man does not make new acquaintances as he passes
through life,
he will soon find himself left alone. A man should keep his
friendship in constant repair.”
PARENTS
Parents are so afraid of exciting pride and vanity in their
children,
by the expression of their love, and approbation,
that a child
sometimes goes sad and discouraged.
“There are times when the open expression of a father’s love
would be worth more than church or sermon to a boy.”
Greed
There is enough for satisfying everyone’s basic needs
but not for satisfying even one man’s greed.
CREDIT
Credit should be preserved at all costs.
Once lost, it will
be very difficult to recover it,
“Credit is like a looking-glass,
which, when
once sullied by a breath,
may be wiped clear again;
but if once cracked can
never be repaired.”
WISH
I(God) give people what they want in the hope,
They begin to want what I(God) want to give them.
HAPPINESS
Why destroy present happiness by a distant misery
Which may never come at all, or you may never live to see
it?
