HAPPY FRIENDSHIP DAY TO ALL MY DEAR FRIENDS.......                     jayasri......

If you have no faith there is no point in asking any questions because how can there be any faith in the answer you receive?But if you have complete faith ther are no questions.    If you have faith in God or in yourself or in your family and friends,then questions can not arise.When you know some one is taking care of you,what is the need for question?when someone is taking care of your desires,why go to an astrologer?

Wanting to correct a mistake brings doership and doership is the foundation for mistakes.those who try to correct mistakes get caught up in more mistakes,but those who recognize them are freed.When you acnowledge a mistake,you try to justify it without taking responsibility for it.And sometimes you accept that you made a mistake but you feel guilty about it.Mistakes are dropped when you are troubled by your conscience-viveka- or when you experience grief.
There may be flaws in any action,any situation or any person.Treat a flaw as you would treat a flower.Just as a flower has to wither away with time,so does flaw.

Summer vacations have started.we came to Hyderabad after a long gap.we were so happy to land in new airport.all my friends felt so happy to see me.the city is as usual beautiful and with so many new malls,flyovers,it looks more beautiful.I went to my friend's house and on the way i have to pass thru a BPO.I noticed that so many workers of that call centre in the scorching sunlight standing out side and smoking.In one hand there is a cup of tea and another hand a cigarrette.And the faces of all the girls and boys look so tired and exhausted.I don't know whether to feel pity for them for losing their charm and glow on their faces at the age of 20s or whether they enjoy working in BPOs.they work throughout the night and when we are going in the morning for morning walk all the girls and guys with tired faces will be returning home.
MCH people have cut huge banian trees for road widening,and this young people are cutting their branches of joy for the sake of their jobs.
Dear young Indians  don't lose your health.you are the strong pillars of our Nation.Enjoy your work don't come under work pressure. Be happy.

Blessings come to you in many forms
Make your home God"s home and there will be light,love and abundance.
Make your body God,s abode and there will be peace and bliss.
Feel your mind is a toy of God and you will watch and enjoy all it"s games.
See this world as a play and as a display of God himself and you will repose in the non-dual  Self.
If you are generous,blessing comes to you as abundance.
If you are hard working,blessing comes to you as happyness.
If you are lazy,blessing comes to you as hard work.
If you are pleasure loving,blessing comes to you as dispassion.
If you are dispassionate,blessing comes to you as knowledge of Self.

HOW MANY OF U REALLY LOVE UR MOTHER?EVERYBODY LOVES THEIR MOTHER...But some times grownup children of  Mothers behave like Demons.they forget how many sacrifices she made for them.Recently i have read in news paper about how two sons of an old lady kicked and killed her because they thought that she was possessed with evil spirit.what is evil spirit?how can her own sons kill her? another incident a 35 year old man in drunken state physically abused his mother....this also came in news paper...what must be the condition a of that poor mother ?
another daughter gave shelter to her widowed mother in her house and looted everything from the mother including her monthly pension....
there are so many incidents like this.but Hats of to a son who like sravana kumar took his 90 year old father and 80 year old mother on his shoulders to teerth yatra.i really bow my head with respect to that son.this news clipping has been shown in NDTV news channel.
now a days children are settling down in far away countries forgetting about their parents dedication and hardwork behind their success don't even bother to take care of parents in their old age.
in good olden days when we were kids our dad used to get annual leave LTA to visit his  home town.that way we used to go to our grand parents house and we used to have fun meeting all our cousins and daily it was a festive atmosphere in our grand parents house.we used to wait for summer holidays to meet our relatives and friend in the village.
but now a days  parents don't have time to take their kids to grand parent's house and for vacation people will plan to go to places where they can enjoy with their family only, spending lot of money.people have become selfish.why dont u go and spend with ur parents atleast for ten days in an year?is that possible?if yes please take leave stop ur kids from going to summer camps and visit ur MOTHER AND FATHER.they will be very happy to see u.
This month 11th people all over the world celebrate MOTHER'S DAY.people send greeting cards thru internet,gifts with somebody else.but all ur mother wants is ur presence.Atleast let the Mother enjoy 10 days in a year calling it as Mother's Days....
I felt like sharing my feelings with all my ilander friends.if at all I hurt somebody's feelings please forgive me.There is no intention to hurt anybody.What i felt like sharing with my true friends i am expressing thats all.thak u..
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL THE MOTHERS....

Know that humiliation does not weeken you-it strenghtens you.When you have a sence of belongingness,you cannot feel humiliated.The more egoistic you are,the more humiliated you feel.When you are childlike and have a greater sence of  kinship,you do not feel humiliated.Similarly when you are commited to truth and not to ur ego,you do not feel humiliated.If you are afraid of humiliation,you can make progress in neither in your material life nor your spiritual life.When you stand above humiliation,you get closer to the Self-to God.When you are steeped in love,with exitence,with the Devine,nothing whatsoever  can humiliate you.
So the way out of humiliation is to get humiliated,be childlike,be crazy,get steeped in love with Divine,and be totally committed to truth,to knowledge.

"YOGA is a light which,once lit, will never dim.The better your practice,the brighter the flame."The primary aim of yoga is to restore the mind to simplicity and peace, to free it from confusion and distress.This sence of calm comes from the practice of yogic asanas and pranayama.Unlike other form of exercise which strain bones and muscles,yoga gently rejuvenates the body.
By restoring the boby.yoga frees the mind  from the negetive feelings caused by the fast pase of modern life.The practice of yoga fills up the reservoirs of hope and optimism within you.It helps you to overcome all obstacles on the path to perfect health and a spiritual contentment.It is a rebirth.

Doubt cannot come where there is a sense of closeness.Doubt needs distance to appear.You never doubt something that is dear to you, close to you.The moment you doubt something,it is no longer dear to you;a distance has come.You may doubt yourself,but do not doubt that which is yours.Self doubt is a lack of closeness to oneself.Belonging,closeness and intimacy are all antidotes for doubt.....
