Message for the Day…”Think of God, and the gratitude you owe to Him for the human life He has gifted you and the various material, moral and intellectual talents He has endowed you with before you commence any task”.
Source: http://media.radiosai.org/
Your life should not be a wasteful round of eating, drinking and sleeping; you have the Atma (soul) as your reality and so learn to become aware of that unfailing source of bliss. By properly using your intelligence, you can tap that spring and be supremely blissful. Happiness can be won only by proceeding towards God, not by following the urges of the senses. Of the twenty four hours that are available to you each day, let Me advise you to devote a small fraction to meditation or prayers or reading scriptures or listening to discourses on the divine sport (leelas) of the Lord. Think of God, and the gratitude you owe to Him for the human life He has gifted you and the various material, moral and intellectual talents He has endowed you with before you commence any task. You will certainly experience great benefit, and you will have peace, joy and success in your endeavours through Divine Grace.
Message for the Day…”It is sheer hypocrisy to kneel before God and then force others to kneel before you. God is love, God is peace and God is strength.”

A heart saturated with love of God can never entertain thoughts of violence. It is sheer hypocrisy to kneel before God and then force others to kneel before you. God is love, God is peace and God is strength. How can a person be in contact with God and yet be proud and acrimonious? Agitated and angry? Weak and vacillating? His claim to be in contact with God is only a laughable foible; it cannot be true. A tree is judged by its fruit. Leaders must develop universal love, not limited to political boundaries which change from decade to decade, or religious labels affixed and erased to suit temporary needs. The prayer that rose from millions in this country from all its temples, holy seafronts, shrines and altars for centuries is: Sarve janah sukhino bhavanthu – Let all the beings of the world be happy and prosperous, and Samastha lokaah sukhino bhavanthu – May all the worlds have peace and prosperity.

Message for the Day…”Learn to live with others sharing your joys and sorrows; be forbearing, not overbearing. When you live together in amity, the village will be happy and safe; and when the villages are well-knit and strong, the nation too will be strong and impregnable.”

Find out the difficulties and troubles burdening others and help them to the extent you can to tide over them; and also to lead their lives such that they may not recur. Learn to live with others sharing your joys and sorrows; be forbearing, not overbearing. When you live together in amity, the village will be happy and safe; and when the villages are well-knit and strong, the nation too will be strong and impregnable. Jealousy, anger, hatred and greed will disintegrate a nation and make it fall into disorder and distress. Drive away the divisive forces that keep one away from another, and prevent hearty cooperation and mutual help. Inculcate discipline in the field of Sadhana also and insist on people performing their duty to themselves and to their destiny. Devotion is like the head, duty is the trunk and discipline is the feet. Let devotion be linked with duty and led by discipline; then, success is certain. |
வாரம் ஒரு கவிதை…” ஒரு புள்ளியில் தொடங்கிய பயணம் “
ஒரு புள்ளியில் தொடங்கிய பயணம் …
———————————
புள்ளியில் தொடங்குது ஒரு மனித வாழ்வு
அந்த சிறு புள்ளி பெரும் புள்ளி ஆகுமா ..
இல்லை அதன் குடும்பத்துக்கும் இந்த உலகுக்கும்
ஒரு கரும்புள்ளியா? …அது ஒரு கேள்விக்குறியே !
புள்ளியில் தொடங்கும் வாழ்க்கை பயணம்
அழகு புள்ளி கோலமாய் மிளிர்வது அந்த
பிள்ளையின் கையில்… கோலம்
அலங்கோலம் ஆவதும் அந்த பிள்ளையின் செயலில்!
புள்ளியில் துவங்கிய வாழ்க்கை பயணம்
ஒரு கேள்விக்குறியாய் இருக்கலாம் …ஆனால்
கேலிக்குரியதாய் இருக்கலாமா ?
வாழ்வுக்கு முற்றுப்புள்ளி வரும் நேரம்
யாருக்கு தெரியும் ? பெரும்புள்ளிக்கும் தெரியாது
கரும்புள்ளிக்கும் தெரியாது ! முற்றுப்புள்ளிக்குப்
பின் என்ன நடக்கும் ? …
எந்த “டாட் காம் ” இணைய தளத்திலாவது
இந்த கேள்விக்கு விடை கிடைக்குமா !
Natarajan…My Tamil kavithai as published in http://www.dinamani.com dated 31st july 2017
Laugh it off ….!!!
Two guys are walking through the woods and come across this big deep hole.
“Wow…that looks deep.” “Sure does… toss a few pebbles in there and see how deep it is.”
They pick up a few pebbles and throw them in and wait… no noise.
“Jeeez. That is REALLY deep… here.. throw one of these great big rocks down there. Those should make a noise.”
They pick up a couple of football-sized rocks and toss them into the hole and wait… and wait. Nothing.
They look at each other in amazement. One gets a determined look on his face and says, “Hey…over here in the weeds, there’s a railroad tie. Help me carry it over here. When we toss THAT sucker in, it’s GOTTA make some noise.”
The two drag the heavy tie over to the hole and heave it in. Not a sound comes from the hole.
Suddenly, out of the nearby woods, a goat appears, running like the wind. It rushes toward the two men, then right past them, running as fast as it’s legs will carry it. Suddenly it leaps in the air and into the hole.
The two men are astonished with what they’ve just seen…
Then, out of the woods comes a farmer who spots the men and ambles over.
“Hey… you two guys seen my goat out here?”
“You bet we did! Craziest thing I ever seen! It came running like crazy and just jumped into this hole!”
“Nah”, says the farmer, “That couldn’t have been MY goat. My goat was chained to a railroad tie.”

Message for the Day…”Prayers to God must be for spiritual progress. Therefore, cultivate virtues without delay and be free from evil habits, thoughts, words and deeds. Grow in love. This is the way to Ananda (bliss).”
Source :::http://media.radiosai.org/
The study of texts might remove some wrong notions and induce some right resolutions. But it cannot confer the vision of Reality. Meditation is key to the Atmic treasure which is your real wealth. Your ego always obstructs, even when you meditate. When Sister Nivedita asked for advice from Swami Vivekananda on how to gain one-pointedness during meditation, he said, “Do not allow Margaret Noble to come between you and God!” Margaret Noble was herself. Niveditameans ‘offering’. So Swami Vivekananda advised, “Offer yourself fully to God.” This total offering cannot emerge from scholarship. The scholar is polluted by ego; he delights in tabulating pros and cons, raises doubts, disturbs faith and mixes secular and worldly matters with spiritual. Many worship God for worldly gains. Prayers to God must be for spiritual progress. Therefore, cultivate virtues without delay and be free from evil habits, thoughts, words and deeds. Grow in love. This is the way to Ananda (bliss).
This is not a mystical tree …
