ऊपर बालों को देखा

तो दुःखी हो गया

यह सोच कर कि 

मेरे पास नहीँ है कुछ खास

2

अपने से नीचे बालों को देखा

तो लगा मेरे पास तो बहुत कुछ है

और मैं हूँ कुछ खास।

3

पूछा जब मैंने बनाने बाले से

बह मुस्कराया 

और उसने बताया

घबरायो नहीँ,

सारी दुनिया में तुम एक हो

तुम जैसा न कोई बनाया 

और तुम हो मेरे खास।

4

 

मैं खुश हुआ, 

उदासी आशा में बदली

बड़ती गई मेरी हर पल जीने की आस।

आंख बंद कर जब निहारा

तो पाया मैं हूँ खास

क्यों घबरायूं मैं, 

जब दुनिया बनाने बाले का है

मेरे सर पर हाथ।

शुभ रात्रि।

* जहां अपना नाम बोलें

आत्मिक मनोबल बड़ जाएगा।

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2016

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2016

TIME ONCE PASSED CANNOT BE RECALLED. TRUE! BUT THE GONE TIME TEACHES MANY LESSONS AND ENABLES US TO BUILD NEW HOPES ON THE BASIS OF OUR LEARNINGS WE RESOLVE TO IMPROVE AND MAKE OUR ,OUR DEARS LIVES, OUR SOCIETY AND WORLD BETTER.

New year celebrations throughout the world bring hopes to ALL.

New year, new resolution.

This year my resolution is " I will listen more and reduce my talking by half."

I have observed that when I listen, I learn new things but when I speak, I repeat what I know from my education, my experience, my experiments.

All others too have done so. Why not benefit from their learning? 

I realised the benefit of listening from others from an incident that happened in my life. 

I met an M.C.A (Master of Computer Application) person. She narrated and taught me  in 10-15 minutes conversation what I could not learn in 15 years BY juggling through books. 

This incident changed my view and I resolved: Now onwards I will speak less and listen and learn more from others.

Just 10 hours back was the entry of TIME into NEW YEAR 2016. 

The children of my neighbourhood having age range 3-14 years had arranged a dance party. 

I was invited as chief guest. Their parents around 250 two had gathered in the park in front of our houses. 

At 8 pm  of 31st December, 2015  the dance party started.  All had brought chairs from their homes. Elders were seated on the raised concrete built in the park. Light and sound system and self-made LCD using flex on wooden planks was done excellently well by the young children. 

Throughout the dance party, coffee and eatables were served without break. All the people - elders, children, young, old, ladies and gents enjoyed the programme of the children. 

Dance by a child of 3 really mesmerised ALL. Even now after 10 hours the song upon which she danced is stilling ringing in my ears. Whenever, we talk about that song and her presence of mind, we cannot control laughing and wonder how such a little child would have crammed the song and learnt to dance. Her steps and lip singing of the song was really beyond comprehension. 

For 4 hours we were entertained and the cost was not more than Rs. 4000/- (Quite below US$ 100) for 250 people.  I was thinking, if a couple would have celebrated NEW Year in a hotel or any other hill station, it would have cost far more than Rs. 4000/- but here in the comfort zone of our homes, we have enjoyed the best. 

At the end of the programmer, I was invited to distribute the medals to the performers. I invited 5-6 other elders of the area who were sitting there.  We all honoured the performers with the medals.  Children were happy. I was thinking who knows that from these children after a period of say 30, 40 years can be an IAS, IPS, IRS, Minister, Chief Minister or President of India or any other country.  Nobody can predict the future of the child. But this kind of foundation will definitely make a child confidence. Confidence creates reality beyond predications. 

At 12 + New Year celebration was over and elders left the place. Now was the turn of the mothers of the children. 

I saw it from the lobby of my house. I was wondering that even the seemingly less talking and generally known introvert ladies were dancing with full vigour and the full of their heart.

They were laughing, dancing, pushing, cuddling and cajoling each other.

And that too in a public place.

I had never seen those young ladies earlier laughing and dancing to that pitch. I thought, everybody has a talent, only opportunity is to be made available.

HAPPY AND PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR 2016.

HOPE

My friend told:          
 I was suffering from a very vicious disease that had no remedy with others.        
    
Some said this OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) others said the change in your body is natural and nothing can avoid it.       
  
But, I felt this was not right.     

 I hated world, I held the world and worldly people and my dear ones responsible for all this. ''
    
When the body is weak and fearful thoughts emerge in the mind, through mouth and mind, one holds others and circumstances responsible. 

As key is to lock the house, so is mouth to lock the mind. Mouth open unpleasantly destroys relationships. In my view,  attitude is religion, soft skills are relationship builders, character is God. Lock the mouth and your bad reactions to the world are hidden.

Yes one more remedy, do not open the mouth and speak everything what is non-pleasant to others and speak loudly what is pleasant and builds relationships.

Healthy relationships are life. Wounds caused by sword can be healed but wounds caused by biting unpleasant words cannot be healed.       Toxic relations make the life toxic too.

But I never stopped believing in the creator.      
 
So, perhaps, through his grace, an elderly person known to me advised: Do this and you will feel good.        

It was a just a ray of hope in the dark.

For about 7-1/2 years, my life was totally derailed.

Depression, cardiac arrest and hopelessness was suffered by me .                   All felt that I will not bounce back in life.    

 But I did and am living well and more productively. 
         
  Fears I faced earlier have  flown away.      
 
 What does not kill strengthens  us.


So, now the advice of the elderly person    
   
(1)  Pay respects and bow to your Guardian God . Guardian Gods  are the spirits of your ancestors in heaven.  Go and pay respects. They will help you . Have their icons at your home and ask them to help you . Like living parents, they too protect you.   Guardian God bless you. Have an attitude of gratitude. Time heals every wound. Trust it. Believe it and wait for good days.  
      
2) Do positive self talk      e.g. I am healing, I am getting better  and better day by day, good days are coming, world is good, people are good.

3) Focus your mind on what you have rather than what you wish to have in future.

4) Believe in yourself and the world will believe in you . Know your strengths and focus on them. Shine them. The weaknesses will automatically be overcome. Do your SWOT analysis in writing.  Pay not any attention to others opinion about yourself. Only you know who you are and what you can do. But do every thing in writing. It will help you. Mental planning and work causes mental tension. Create a habit of writing and you will see that you are more intelligent and powerful than what others tell or you think.

5) As the key is to lock of the house, mouth is to your mind. Appreciate in public and depreciate in private or do not depreciate others at all. Hating and disliking causes unnecessary tension in mind. Avoid it. Program your mind yourself consciously. Closing your eyes, talk positive and forgive others.

6) Do not react to others and feel jealous of others' progress. Or this will break you down mentally and physically.  Healthy attitude about life keeps the life happy, healthy and prosperous            plus disease free. Mind is the engine of the train called body. Healthy mind creates healthy body. Avoid self-medication. It destroys immunity of the body. Immunity is the natural healing power of the body. Let the body repair itself through positive thinking and self-talk.

7) Be less suspicious. Changing attitude everything changes. World was before you and world will be here after you. You live lively. That's your responsibility.

8. 10% is the situation and 90% is our reaction. How? Boil water in a pan. Put some carrots, then eggs and then coffee. Carrots will become soft, eggs will become hard and coffee will boil with water. Same is about the situations in life. You can act, you can react or you can adapt yourself.
Choice lies with you.

 It has been found that 98% mentally thought fears and fearful situations never happen  in life .
If you want to check , write on a paper or notebook with date what you fear or suspect will happen and when will it happen.

And after that date check if this has happened.

If this does not happen, then understand that fear was just fantasy or imaginary and  not REAL.  Majority of the people in the world suffer from such kind of fears.    
  
Fear has two meanings.         FEAR= Fear everything and run .                    
                                                 FEAR = Face everything and rise         
                                    
  Bold, powerful, positive self talk and reading positive powerful self esteem boosting literature really brought me back to life. I thank that mentor.   
                                  
Mentors matter in life.                                   Negative people whom I call blood suckers and believers that control of your life is in the hand of some external power and man can do nothing are really devastating and destroy happiness from life.      They appear totally ignorant and make their own faith opium. Instead of acting their part to solve the problem, they leave it to their faith blindly.
      
Believe in yourself and the world will believe in you . SELF BELIEF with faith in Almighty is the crux of rising in life.     

 Forgive yourself and others - be it outsider or family member -  not because they deserve it  but you deserve mental peace.
      
  Never carry guilt . Mistakes have led to the biggest discoveries of the world.   Many don't act for fear of failure. Act and fail but learn and act next time.

This time you are more intelligent, more aware and more organized and will learn new things.
And ultimately SUCCESS will be yours.

But positive attitude is most important. It is your inner approach to handle anything in life.

Nothing is bad with this world. Only you need to change your attitude and world will become beautiful for you.

See and appreciate the beauty within yourself and the world will appear beautiful. My perception by you is your self reflection is a good saying.

THINK POSITIVE, BE HAPPY AND LIVE HAPPILY. Straight lines (smiles) have more value than curved ones.

Yes 30 days change in diet pays a lot. 30 days 30 glasses of fruit juice/lime juice plus a few say 4-5 nuts daily detoxify the body and you feel more healthy, more vibrant and more good from inside and your self-productivity increases. 1 glass of fruit juice or lime juice a day keeps the medicine and many deceases  away.

"SHE'S WITH YOU IN A DIFFERENT WAY"

It's often sad when love grows up.
But a dog can't stay a pup.
Change is inevitably true.
Growth shall surely ensue.
Your little girl went away.
But look closer
she's with you in a different way.

To everything comes an end.
Every ending is another beginning, my friend.
That's the way life evolves.
In short, parts of it slowly dissolves.
Your little girl went away.
But look closer
she's with you in a different way.

You can't hold on for too long.
Love is free, it's roots strong.
The baby bird shall leave the nest
and be free to pursue its own quest.
Your little girl went away.
But look closer
she's with you in a different way.

You gave her wings to fly.
That is the gift of saying goodbye.
Those same wings will make her come back to you
in ways you never knew!!
Your little girl went away.
But look closer
she's with you in a different way.

The spirits riding high;
death shall not deny.
Your love is in her wholly absorbed.
And through this, eternally you are restored.
You didn't go away.
Look Closer
you're with her in a different way.


"SOUL SURVIVING SAVIOR"

Someone else's actions
have no bearing on my own.
I am me, an entity,
and shall take it so stolidly
that which is spewed or thrown.
I need not look to others
to seek their satisfation,
nor may others stir
my emotion, and thus
produce a negative reaction.

I am solely responsible
for my own behavior
in any given situation.
I can only help myself,
I am my soul surving savior.

Half Won't Do

Don't you want something better?
Maybe I'm not a go getter.
Half won't do.
What's wrong with you?
You got only one life.
Why fill it with strife?
Half won't do.
What's wrong with you?
Don't you deserve it?
Go get it!~
Half won't do.
What's wrong with you?

Hope

People don't always

need advice.

Sometimes, all they really need

is hand to hold

an ear to listen

a heart to understand them.

Hope

A point from 

where our efforts start to fail, 

hope starts working.

Dreams

Dreams:

Dreams give rise to hope.

Hope inspires efforts.

Efforts results in success.

So, dreams are the root of success.

Let all your dreams come true.

A kid asked Swami Vivekananda

 sab kuch khone se zyada bura kya hota hai?

“Swami replied” 

wo umeed khona jiske 

bharose par tumk khoya hua sab  kuch vapas paa sakte ho.

Faith

A little girl went to her bedroom and pulled a glass jelly jar from its hiding place in

the closet.

She poured the change out on the floor and counted it carefully. Three times, even.. The total had to be exactly perfect.. No chance here for mistakes.

Carefully placing the coins back in the jar and twisting on the cap, she
slipped out the back door and made her way 6 blocks toRexall's Drug Store with
the big red Indian Chief sign above the door.

She waited patiently for the pharmacist to give her some attention, but he was too busy at this moment.
Tess twisted her feet to make a scuffing noise. Nothing. She cleared her throat with the most disgusting sound she could muster.. No good. Finally she took a quarter from her jar and banged it on the glass counter. That did it!

'And what do you want?' the pharmacist asked in an annoyed tone of voice.  I'm talking to my brother from Chicago whom I haven't seen in ages,' he said without waiting for a reply to his question.

'Well, I want to talk to you about my brother,' Tess answered back in the same annoyed tone. 'He's really, really sick....and I want to buy a miracle.'

'I beg your pardon?' said the pharmacist.

'His name is Andrew and he has something bad growing inside his head and my Daddy says only a miracle can save him
now. So how much does a miracle cost?'

'We don't sell miracles here, little girl. I'm sorry but I can't help you,' the pharmacist said, softening a little.

'Listen, I have the money to pay for it. If it isn't enough, I will get the rest. Just tell me how much it cost s.'

The pharmacist's brother was a well dressed man. He stooped down and asked the little girl, 'What kind of a
miracle does your brother need?'

' I don't know,' Tess replied with her eyes welling up. I just know he's really sick and Mommysays he needs an
operation. But my Daddy can't pay for it, so I want to use my money..'

'How much do you have?' asked the man from Chicago .

'One dollar and eleven cents,' Tess answered barely audible.

'And it's all the money I have, but I can get some more if I need to.'

'Well, what a coincidence,' smiled the man. 'A dollar and eleven cents---the exact price of a miracle for little brothers..'

He took her money in one hand and with the other hand he grasped her mitten and said 'Take me to where you
live. I want to see your brother and meet your parents. Let's see if I have the miracle you need.'

That well-dressed man was Dr. Carlton Armstrong, a surgeon, specializing in neuro-surgery. The operation was completed free of
charge and it wasn't long until Andrew was home again and doing well.

Mom and Dad were happily talking about the chain of events that had led them to this place.

'That surgery,' her Mom whispered. 'was a real miracle. I wonder how much it would have cost?'

Tess smiled. She knew exactly how much a miracle cost....one dollar and eleven cents...plus the faith of a little child.

In our lives, we never know how many miracles we will need.

A miracle is not the suspension of natural law, but the operation of a higher law.
I know you'll keep the ball moving!

Here it goes. Throw it back to someone who means something to you!

A ball is a circle, no beginning, no end. It keeps us together like our Circle of Friends. But the treasure inside
for you to see is the treasure of friendship you've granted to me.

Today I pass the friendship ball to you.

Pass it on to someone who is a friend to you.

MY OATH TO YOU...

When you are sad.....I will dry your tears.

When you are scared.....I will comfort your fears.

When you are worried......I will give you hope.

When you are confused.....I will help you cope.

And when you are lost...and can't see the light, 

I shall be your beacon...shining ever so bright.

This is my oath.....I pledge till the end.

Why you may ask?....Because you're my friend.

Signed: GOD

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.

FORTUNE

Fortune turns like a mill wheel and he,

who was yesterday at the top lies today at the bottom.

Hope for going up.

DESPAIR

He,

who has never hoped

can never despair.

HOPE

Who has never hoped can never despair.

Hope sustains life.

HAVE HEALTH, WEALTH AND HAPPINESS

Dear Friend,

He, who has health, has hope. And he, who has hope, has everything. Every human being is the author of his own health or disease. It is health that is real wealth and not pieces of gold and silver. Health is a state of complete physical, mental and emotional well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. So, if a person is not healthy, then he or she will find it very difficult to enjoy life. A lot many people spoil their health for gaining wealth, and then have to spend their wealth to regain their health.

Good health is the consequence of good energy levels. Energy has three pre-dominant levels a) Physical b) Mental and c) Emotional. Physical energy can be gained by eating a balanced diet and exercising regularly. A balanced nutritious dies must contain carbohyderate, protien, fat, vitamins, mineral salts and fibre. It must contain these things in correct proportions. Next to the chart comes regular exercise. Proper exercise benefits every part of the body including the mind. Walking, deep-breathing and meditation are three very productive exercises for your well-being.

Mental energy comes from three significat sources a) Thinking b) Reasoning and c) Solving of Problems. You must develop honest and good thoughts. A good thinker is an asset to the society. And learn to take complete control of your thoughts and mental processes. To gain mental strength and vitality, cultivate the quality of reasoning well and with conviction. As long as there is life, there will be problems. The art lies in your approach to problems. Do not make hotchpotch of all the issues. Solve problems one by one at a time. Similarly make plansin such a way that you can execute them on a daily basis. Remember, to prioritise your time and do the most important things first.

The third type is emotional energy coming from enthusiasm, motivation and resilience. Emotional energy is the master of all energies. Emotions can be a useful and powerful tool to handle different situations in life. This energy depends on how much zeal, drive and toughness you have. Enthusiasm comes from optimism. Optimism is a magnet. It attracts people and prosperity to you. Positive thoughts are powerful constructive thoughts. They give energy to both mind and body. If we have positive thoughts it is sure that we will succeed. They make us more joyful and happy. Using them on all occasions will make us live a better life than ever and help us to build a better social, cultural and work relationship. All is Well is not just catch-phrase popularised by the movie 3 Idiots but a generator of positivism. These three magical words will not heal our sores or soothe our sorrows, but the essence within them will provide us the courage to do so.

The next component, motivation, results from our passion and commitment. Passion is an attitude and can be developed. Vhoose the career that is perfect for you, one that inspires you and leads you to perform better, work harder, live more happily. Such a career will make you passionate about your work. If you are passionate, you will inevitably be committed to your task at hand.
Motivation is a combination of will power, goals, ability to continue attaining the highest level of success.
Last but not least, you need to develop resilience. Resilience is the flexibility in response to changing situational demands, and the ability to bounce back from negative emotional experiences. Resilient individuals experience positive emotions even in the midst of stressful events, which explains their ability to rebound successfully despite diversity.
To wish you to be well is a part of becoming well. A man too busy to take care of his health is like a mechanic too busy to take care of his tools. Health is first muse, it gives us the required motivation and energy to work. In health, there is freedom. Health is the first of all liberties. It is the greatest possession a person can accumulate.
Helping you to gain healh, wealth and happiness.

WONDER OF FAITH.

By Sehaj**
Once there was a girl name Rose. She tried hard in everything. But achieved nothing. She worked hard till day and night to study, think about her future and career. Although, she was hard-working but she was deaf and a mute girl.

Once, some one told her(by the sign communication) that if she drinks water and cleans her ears with the fountains of great Church of Greece, she would be totally fine.

But that was a lie. No matter everyone tried to stop her but her ideas were strong and lively. The doctors told that she could never be fine as she was deaf and mute by birth.

She didn’t believe in the doctors and went to Greece.

She was so scared that when she drank the water and cleaned her ears with it, she was surprised. What a magic! What a miracle, she said. I am totally fine and I am so happy that now I can speak and hear and need no more to use my hands everytime to communicate. When she went to the doctors, they were shocked. Now they knew what she believed, she really-really worked hard to achieve it. When she went back to her country, she thanked her Lord Jesus and the boy who told her to do this.

When he came to know that by doing what he said ( a lie) she became fine. He felt sorry for her and told her the truth. She couldn’t believe her ears. Now she understood why the doctors didn’t believe her.

** Sehaj is aged 10 years and is studying in 5th class. She wrote the story on 31st January, 2008. Her feelings are appreciated. Paper landed in my hand and hence is ready for the world to read and appreciate.
