Recognize the Divine within yourself. Open the doors of your heart. Develop love more and more. Understand the truth. Experience God. There lies the bliss. Make every effort to understand the immanent Divinity. The Divinity within you is covered by ego and anger. Therefore, real knowledge dawns when attachment is destroyed (Moham hithva punar vidya). Where does this attachment come from? Excessive desires lead to attachment. You may attain temporary peace by undertaking repetition of the name (Japa), meditation (dhyana), andyoga. To attain permanent peace, you must develop love within. Love can turn earth into sky and sky into earth. This sacred love is within you. But, you direct it in the wrong direction and thereby it gets perverted. Develop the sacred Love within you to realise your innate Divinity.

Message For the Day…” Do Not Get Carried Away by Pain or Pleasure …”
Penance does not mean retiring to the forest and living on fruits and tubers. In fact such a life can be called a life of dullness (thamas), not penance (thapas). True penance lies in controlling one’s emotions, thoughts, words and deeds arising out of Sathwic,Rajasic and Thamasic qualities. You should contemplate on God at all times and achieve harmony of thought, word and deed. A noble person is one whose thoughts, words and deeds are in complete harmony (Manasyekam Vachasyekam Karmanyekam Mahatmanam). Do not be carried away by pain or pleasure. The Gita teaches that you should be even-minded in happiness or sorrow, gain or loss, victory or defeat. You should discharge your duty with utmost sincerity and serve society without any expectation of reward. Such even-mindedness and desireless state is true penance.
Amazing ” Amazon ” !!!
NEEDLE in a Haystick ???…. Dont worry we know where it is !!!!…. AMAZON ….
As the world’s largest online retailer, Amazon needs somewhere to put all of those products. The solution? Giant warehouses. Eighty to be exact. Strategically located near key shipping hubs around the world. The warehouses themselves are massive, with some over 1.2 million square feet in size (111,484 sq m). And at the heart of this global operation are people (over 65,000 of them), and a logistics system known as chaotic storage.
Chaotic storage is like organized confusion. It’s an organic shelving system without permanent areas or sections. That means there is no area just for books, or a place just for televisions (like you might expect in a retail store layout). The product’s characteristics and attributes are irrelevant. What’s important is the unique barcode associated with every product that enters the warehouse.
Every single shelf space inside an Amazon warehouse has a barcode. And every incoming product that requires storage is assigned a specific barcode that matches the shelf space in which it will be stored. This allows free space to be filled quickly and efficiently. At the heart of the operation is a sophisticated database that tracks and monitors every single product that enters/leaves the warehouse and keeps a tally on every single shelf space and whether it’s empty or contains a product.
There are several key advantages to the chaotic storage system. First is flexibility. With chaotic storage, freed-up space can be refilled immediately. Second is simplicity. New employees don’t need to learn where types of products are located. They simply need to find the storage shelf within the warehouse. You don’t need to know what the product is, just where it is. Lastly is optimization. Amazon must handle millions and millions of orders. That means that at any given moment there is a long list of products that need to be ‘picked’ from the shelves and prepared for shipment. Since there is a database that knows every product required for shipment and the location of each product inside the warehouse, an optimized route can be provided to employees responsible for fulfilment.
Since Amazon deals with such a wide variety of products there are a few exceptions to the rule. Really fast-moving articles do not adhere to the same storage system since they enter and leave the warehouse so quickly. Really bulky and heavy products still require separate storage areas and perishable goods are not ideal for obvious reasons.
In this storage system a wide variety of products can be found located next to each other. A necklace could be located beside a DVD and underneath a set of power tools. This arbitrary placement can even help with accuracy as it makes mix-ups less likely when picking orders for shipment. Overall it’s a fascinating system that at its core is powered by a complex database yet run by a simple philosophy. It’s Chaotic Storage. There’s no better way to put it 🙂

Message for the Day…” Master the Mind and Be a Mastermind …”
All spiritual practices (Sadhana) will go in vain if you do not know your true identity. Instead of asking others, “Who are you?” ask yourself, “Who am I?” We say, “This is my book, this is my tumbler.” Then, “Who am I? The feeling of ‘my’ is illusion (maya). All this ‘mine’ is matter; they are negative. You think you are the master of this material world. Master the mind and be a mastermind! Make an effort to know your true identity. To know this, you should first give up body attachment. When I say this is ‘my handkerchief’, I am separate from the handkerchief. Similarly, when I say this is ‘my body’, I am separate from the body. When I say, ‘my mind’ it means I am separate from my mind. Then who am I? Constant enquiry on these lines would lead you to self realisation.

Message For the Day…”Alongwith Annam [Food] You Need Anandam {Bliss}…”
Food is the primary requisite for life. One cannot live without food. Hence life has been described as Annamaya (composed of food). But one is not content to live on food alone. The mind is not satisfied if the stomach is full. Although food is essential for the body, the mind craves for Ananda (bliss). Life can find fulfilment only if Ananda is experienced. Hence, you cannot rest content with merely being alive. You have to be active and ever on the move. In the process one has to ask oneself the questions, ‘Why am I restless? Why am I active? What do I do to engage myself in actions? Why am I performing these actions? How am I doing them?’ It is when one enquires into these matters, can the true purpose and meaning of actions be realised. This enquiry has to be conducted in the proper way. Once you come to the conclusion that a certain action is right, you should then do it with earnestness

படித்ததில் பிடித்தது …பணம் மட்டும் சந்தோஷம் கொடுக்காது …
அரசு ஊழியர் ஒருவர் பெரியவாளை நமஸ்கரித்து விட்டுத் தன் கஷ்டங்களையெல்லம் சாங்கோபாங்கமாக விவரித்தார். “பணம் இல்லாதவன் பிணம் என்பது சரியான வார்த்தை! கடன் வாங்கி குடித்தனம் பண்ண வேண்டியிருக்கு. இன்னும் கொஞ்சம் பணம் இருந்தால் சந்தோஷமாக இருப்பேன்”. “உன்னோட சம்சாரம் – குழந்தைகள் எல்லோரும் உன்கிட்ட பிரியமா இருக்காளா?” கேட்டார் பெரியவா “எல்லோருக்கும் என்னிடம் ரொம்பப் பிரியம். எனக்குத் தலைவலின்னா கூட தவிச்சுப் போயிடுவா…” என்றார் இவர். “சரி.. உட்காரு” அவரும் சற்றுத் தள்ளி ஓர் இடத்தில் அமர்ந்து கொண்டார். பத்து நிமிஷத்துக்குள் ஒரு பெரிய மனிதர் மனைவியுடன் வந்தார். பெரிய தோரணை. பழக்கூடை, புஷ்பக்கூடை சகிதம் வந்து பெரியவாளை நமஸ்கரித்து சொன்னார்: ”நான் ஏழையா இருந்தால் செளக்கியாமா இருப்பேன். பங்களா, கார் – எதுவும் நிம்மதியைக் கொடுக்கல்லே. எனக்குச் சக்கரை வியாதி. எந்த ஒரு நல்ல பொருளையும் வாயில் போட முடியல்லே… இரண்டு பையன்ளும் குட்டிச் சுவராகப் போய்விட்டார்கள். உலகத்திலுள்ள அத்தனை கெட்ட பழக்கமும் இருக்கிறது. நிறைய கடன். வயதான காலத்தில் நிம்மதி இல்லாமல் இருக்கின்றோம்” என்றார். இதையேல்லாம் அர்சு ஊழியர் கேட்டுக் கொண்டிருந்தார். தன்னுடைய வாழ்க்கையே மேல் என்று அவருக்கு தோன்றிவிட்டது. பெரியவாளுக்கு நமஸ்காரம் செய்துவிட்டு நிம்மதியாக சென்றார். இதற்க்குத்தான் உம்மாச்சி தாத்தா அவரை உட்கார வைத்தாரோ ??? பெரியவா…. “பணம் சந்தோஷத்தை கொடுக்காது என்பதற்க்கு இது ஒரு உதாரணம்” என்று கூறினார்கள் பெரியவா.
