Look ahead
People without vision perish.

HONOURABLE CONDUCT
HAIR
The hair on the head is a thing of beauty;
Removed from its place, it becomes filth.
Save the hair as it is the fate of man
Who fall from their own level
of honourable conduct and demean themselves.
MAN
When the creator
desired to see the excellence
of his own
creations,
he created man after his own image.
DIFFICULTY
There is nothing like a difficulty.
You should turn adverse circumstances
to your advantage.
“Difficulty is only a word
indicating the degree of strength
requisite
for accomplishing particular objects.
A mere notice of the necessity
for extortion,
a bug bear to children and fools;
ONLY a stimulus to men.”
RICHES
Riches are the prettiest and least worthy gifts
which god can give to a man.
They are apt to betray a man into arrogance.
“Worldly riches are like nuts;
,
Many clothes are torn
in getting them,
many a tooth broken in cracking them,
but never a belly filled with eating them.”
Wisdom
Wisdom is the weapon of the wise.
Success travels with
WISDOM.
It is not always easy
To
apologize
To Keep Trying
To begin
over
To think and then act.
To admit
error.
To be considerate
To be
unselfish
To profit by mistake.
To take
advice
To forgive and forget
To be
charitable
To shoulder deserved blame.
BUT it always
pays.
LOVE
Love is universal.
Like heat, light, electricity or magnetism,
it is a form of universal energy.
God’s force which shows itself
in smiles and laughter,
in
kindness and charity in gentleness,
invisible.
PEACE
If you have peace within yourself,
you have nothing to worry
at all.
“He that is in peace is not suspicious of any.
But he that
is dis-contented and troubled
is tossed with diverse suspicions.
He is neither
quiet himself,
nor suffereth others to be quiet.”
NOBLE THOUGHTS
He is never alone who is accompanied with noble thoughts.
Just as a candle cannot burn without fire, man cannot live
without a spiritual life.
LIVING
“Live one day at a time.”
You have to yourself climb the steps to Nirvana.
You cannot depend upon help from outside.
The spirit in man is the helper of his soul.
Attachment
Wanting objects breeds attachment
From attachment arises covetousness,
Covetousness leads to anger
Anger destroys memory
And choice is rendered.
And man dooms.
ANGER
From anger arises delusion;
From delusion, loss of memory,
The discriminative faculty is ruined.
And from the ruin of discrimination,
Man perishes.
FEARLESSNESS
“Fearlessness is the greatest virtue
one should cultivate
otherwise there could be no hope”
Be not afraid of anything. You are nobody.
It is fear that is the great cause of misery in the world.
GATE TO LIFE
Straight is the gate,
narrow is the way,
which leads into
life
and a few shall be true to find it.
EVIL
How could there be any help from outside?
By oneself the
evil is done, and it is oneself who suffers.
By oneself, the evil is not done
and by oneself one becomes pure.
The pure and impure comes from one self.
No man can be pure
purify another.
GOD
You may listen to discourses of the sages,
study scriptures,
become learned.
But if you have not enthroned god in your heart,
you have
achieved nothing.
WEALTH
Wealth does to you more harm than good.
wealth contaminates the virtues of the wise.”
WISDOM
It is wisdom, not external pleasure
that shows the way to
salvation and immortality.
Children pursue the external pleasure
and so they fall into
the snare of wide spread death.
But the wise do not desire.
ACTIONS
By persisting in doing bad actions
you do not expect good
result.
“As you sow, so shall you reap.”
After cutting down a mango tree,
you cannot plant a neem
(found in India
and expect to reap the some tasty mango fruit from
it,
even if you water to neem with milk.
GREAT MAN
Who is really a great man?
“There is no great man who makes everybody feel small.
The really great man is the man
who makes every man feel
great.”
WORK IS NOT BURDEN
The day’s work is no burden at all.
It becomes so only when
you postpone things.
“No man ever sank under the burden of the day,
It’s when tomorrow’s burden is added to burden of today
That weight is more than a man can bear.
RICHES
What really makes a man really rich?
Certainly, not his bank
balance.
No man can tell whether he is rich or poor by turning to his
ledger.
It is the heart that makes a man rich.
He is rich according to what he is,
Not according to what he has.
BROODING
Do not waste your today by brooding over tomorrow.
“Don’t be
anxious about tomorrow.
God will take care of your tomorrow too.”
JESUS CHRIST
Because of his unbounded generosity,
Lord Jesus Christ chose
to be poor
so that you can be rich.
“The lord of us all was rich beyond our
telling,
yet he become poor for your sake so that
his poverty might make you
rich.”
FORTUNE
Fortune turns like a mill wheel and he,
who was yesterday at
the top lies today at the bottom.
Hope for going up.
HAPPINESS
The source of happiness is within us.
We have to only find
out, know it and realize it.
Your own happiness depends on the way other people bear
themselves towards you.
Your daily conduct make up very much of the pleasure of
misery of your day.
“Whether each day of your life shall give happiness or
suffering rests with yourself.”
WOMEN
Women of perverse nature
are a misery to the whole family.
How do women attain the status of queens of the home?
Serve your elders and conduct yourself
as a loving friend
towards co-wives though wronged,
do not, in a fit of anger act hostile to your
husband.
Be extremely considerable
towards your dependents and do not become elated with pride
in prosperity.
FEAR
Fear is born of ignorance.
It deprives man of manliness.
It
is worse than death.
“Practice of fearlessness is imperative
for not only the
seeker of wisdom
but also for all who want to thrive in life.”
SUCCESSFUL MAN
Successful man is the one
who has built his firm foundation
from the bricks thrown at him
by others.
PRAYER
There is nothing that you cannot achieve by prayer.
“Payer has been the saving of my life,
without it,
I should
have been a lunatic long ago.
I have my fair share in the bitterest of public and private
experiences.
They threw me into temporary despair,
but if I was able to get rid
of it, it was because of prayer.”
LOVE
It does you no big credit if you love those who love you.
For even sinners love those who love them.
If you lend to those from whom you hope to receive,
What credit is that to you?
“ Love your enemies and do good and lend,
expecting nothing
in return and your reward will be great.”
SAFETY
Better safe than sorry.
Being at wrong place at wrong time
means inviting danger to life and belongings.
Public talk and excessive disclosure to the public
endangers safety.
FREEDOM
One cannot enjoy freedom himself
when he denies it to
others.
Sharing of freedom among fellow beings
gives the greatest of
happiness.
“He who builds walls to create exclusion for others,
builds
walls across his own freedom.
He who distrusts freedom on others
loses his moral right to
it.”
