Message For the Day…”Mind Once Merged with God Should be Like Milk and Water “…

Meditation does not mean sitting cross-legged (in Padmasana) with eyes closed in contemplation of God. This is physical, worldly activity. No doubt, this is needed, but true meditation lies in unifying the mind with God. Just as milk and water cannot be separated, likewise, the mind, once merged with God, cannot be separated. Likewise, your love should become one with Divine love. Some people contemplate on God for a limited period in the morning and evening. This cannot be called meditation. You must contemplate on God at all times, at all places and under all circumstances. Perform all tasks with your mind firmly fixed on God. That is true meditation. Thinking of God for a limited period is only part-time devotion. Part-time devotion entitles you to only part-time grace. You should have full-time devotion in order to attain grace in full measure.

The mission set down on moon on December 14, 2013 at 9:12 p.m. Beijing time. China is the third country to land on the moon, after U.S. and former Soviet Union.

Chinese moon rover Yutu (“Jade Rabbit”)

Emily Lakdawalla at the Planetary Society posted some of the best images we’ve seen so from China’s Chang’e moon lander yesterday (January 10, 2014). Lakdawalla wrote:

Almost all of the images I’ve seen to date have been shared through a bizarre roundabout method of projecting them on a screen, then filming them with a video camera, then aired on television, and then screen-grabbed. These photos are different: they are clearly direct from the original digital data. They’re still not perfect — they have been downsampled, contrast-enhanced, watermarked, and JPEG-compressed — but they’re so, so much better than what I’ve seen before, rich with detail and nuanced in color.

A few of the images are below. To see them all, visit Emily Lakdawalla’s January 10 post.

By the way, Chinese media is reporting today (January 11) that the Chinese lunar rover Yutu has successfully reawakened after a potentially dangerous two-week hibernation to ride out the darkness of the lunar night. Click here to read more about Yutu’s hibernation and awakening. Thank you, Twitter user Daniel Fischer (@cosmos4u)

Bottom line: Best images so far from China’s moon mission, which set down in the moon’s Bay of Rainbows on December 14, 2013 at about 9:12 p.m. Beijing time. China’s moon landing made it only the third country in the world to land on the moon, after the U.S. and former Soviet Union. The lander delivered a robotic rover called Yutu (“Jade Rabbit”) to the moon’s surface. The plan is for the rover to spend some months exploring on the moon’s surface.

We all are on new year’s eve today as per our common global Calendar (Gregorian) 🙂 Wish you all a happy new year. We are just stepping into another day, same as yesterday but with a new number to a calendar we follow! We could learn something today that there are several calendars do exist and not all the calendar is stepping on to the year 2014! 

The Buddhist Calendar is in the year 2557, Kali Yuga Calendar says its 5114-5115, Korean Calendar its year 4346! Feeling Strange? Nothing is there to feel so. There are several calendars out there. (See the list below)

A calendar is a system of organizing days for social, religious, commercial or administrative purposes. This is done by giving names to periods of time, typically days, weeks, months, and years. A date is the designation of a single, specific day within such a system…

Kind Hearted Lion Saving a Baby calf !!!… Unbelievable !!!

 

 

While on safari in Africa, most park visitors would expect to see nature at its wildest. That’s what the creators of this video were thinking when they started filming a lion’s pursuit of a baby wildebeast. However, what could have been an epic documentatary on brutal nature turned out to be a surprisingly sweet video of a lion that is so kind! Enjoy this incredible footage proving that big cats can have big hearts too!

Christmas Lights – Brisbane

Lights during christmas is something that fascinates kids and adults alike. It was a bit surprising that i couldn’t find anything properly in the internet about the christmas lighting in and around brisbane.

After a bit of word of mouth and googling we found this place where an entire street is lit up, something tots would definitely cherish and enjoy. I am told that the parking can be really difficult, we went there yesterday 25 12 2013 and it was very quiet and the lights were still there.

Kaiser Drive, Windaroo, Qld. that’s where the lights are

If you haven’t been there, it is worth a visit for residents at QLD….
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year !!!
