” Do Good and Help Someone”…

NatarajanLeave a comment

 

Do Good- Do Your Share and Help Someone !!  Being Positive is always better than being Negative
Help your neighbor. Help your community. Help some kids. Find a need and lend a hand. Donate your time, money, and energy. Join a service club, feed the homeless, give a friend a ride, take someone to lunch or buy them flowers, mail someone a card, compliment a person who is doing a good job, call someone who is sad. Make this world a better place. Don’t wait for someone else to do it. Be a positive force in the world.
Let us all Think like an Angel-
Think How you can help someone in need, lift a burden, or light the way for someone? 
BE A BLISS  -MAKING SOMEONE HAPPY IS THE ONLY WAY TO BE HAPPY  
Quote of BABA:
Sit quietly with me and give up worrying.

வில்லேஜ் விஞ்ஞானி ஜெயசீலன் …

பிறந்ததுமே இறந்த போன தாய்; பிறந்தது முதலே இதய நோயால் அவதிப்பட்ட ஏதோ பெயரளவில் விவசாயத்தை கவனித்துக் கொள்ளும் ஒரு தந்தை; கரை சேர்க்க வேண்டிய பொறுப்பில் மூன்று அக்காக்கள்; இப்படிப்பட்ட சூழ்நிலையில் ஒரு சாதாரண அரசுப் பள்ளியில் தன் படிப்பை ஆரம்பித்து இன்று இங்கிலாந்து பாராளுமன்றத்தையே தன் ஆராய்ச்சிக் கட்டுரையால் அதிரவைத்திருக்கிறார் திருச்சி அருகே உள்ள தத்தமங்கலம் கிராமத்தைச் சேர்ந்த ஜெயசீலன்.
பன்னிரண்டாவது முடித்து திருச்சி பாரதிதாசன் ஸ்கூல் ஆஃப் இன்ஜினீயரிங்கில் பி.டெக். படிக்கச் சேர்ந்த போது பார்மசூட்டிக்கல் இன்ஜினீயரில் படிப்பை எடுத்தார்.
பொதுவாக நான்காம் ஆண்டில்தான் புராஜெக்ட் செய்வது வழக்கம். ஆனால் இவரது ஆர்வத்தைக் கண்ட பேராசிரியர் புரட்சிக்கொடி, முதலாம் ஆண்டில் இருந்தே இவருக்க புராஜெக்ட் செய்ய உதவினார். “கடல்பாசியிலிருந்து கேன்சர் எதிர்ப்பு மருந்துகள் தயாரித்தல்’ என்பதுதான் இவரது புராஜெக்ட். இவரது ஆராய்ச்சியின் முக்கியத்துவத்தை உணர்ந்து அரசே பதினாறு லட்ச ரூபாயை ஒதுக்கியுள்ளது.
பிடெக் முடித்ததும் லண்டனில் உள்ள லப்ரோ யுனிவர்சிட்டியில் மாஸ்டர்ஸ் டிகிரி படிக்கச் சேர்ந்தார் ஜெயசீலன். அங்கே பாதி ஃபீஸ் ஸ்காலர்ஷிப் மூலமாகவும் மீதிதான் பார்த்த பார்ட் டைம் வேலையின் மூலமாகவும் என தனது படிப்புத் தேவைகளை நிறைவு செய்து கொண்டார்.
“நான் படித்த பல்கலைக்கழக வளாகத்தில் பல்லாயிரக்கணக்கான மாணவர்கள் படித்தனர். அங்கே மாதத்துக்கு சுமார் 56டன் உணவு வீணானது. அதனைக் கொண்டு போய் ஊருக்கு வெளியே உள்ள இடங்களில் குழி தோண்டிப் புதைக்கணும். இதற்கு ஆகும் செலவும் பல்கலைக்கழக நிர்வாகத்தை அழுத்தியது.
படிப்பு தொடர்பான ப்ராஜெக்ட்டாக அல்லாமல் நானே முயற்சி எடுத்து அதனை பல்கலைக்கழக வளாகத்திலேயே ஒர இடத்தில் சேமித்து அதில் வேகமாக மக்கச் செய்யும் பாக்டீரியாக்களை சேர்த்து அதை மக்கச் செய்து அதிலிருந்து மீத்தேன் வாயு தயாரித்து பல்கலைக்கழகத்தில் பயன்படுத்தப்படும் பாய்லர்களைச் சூடாக்கவும் மின்சாரம் தயாரிக்கவும் பயன்படுத்த திட்ட ஒன்றை வகுத்தேன். இதற்க என் படிப்பு தொடர்பான ப்ராஜெக்டுகளுக்கும் எந்தத் தொடர்பும் இல்லை. அந்த ப்ராஜெக்டுக்கு அந்த வருடத்துக்கான பெஸ்ட் இனிஷியேடிவ் அவார்ட் கிடைத்தது.
சீனா, அமெரிக்கா, ஸ்பெயின், இலங்கை உள்ளிட்ட பல நாடுகளில் பல்வேறு பல்கலைக்கழகங்களில் பல அறிவியல் மேடைகளில் எனது முப்பது ஆய்வுக்கட்டுரைகள் அரங்கேறியிருக்கின்றன. இப்போது முனைவர் பட்ட ஆராய்ச்சிக்காக இல்கிலாந்தில் உள்ள நாட்டிங்காம் பல்கலைக்கழகத்தில் ஆய்வு செய்துவருகிறேன். விபத்துக்களில் சிக்கி உடல்பகுதிகள் குறிப்பாக எலும்புகள் சேதமடையும்போது அதற்கு மாற்றாக வைக்கப்படும் ப்ளேட்டுகள் தனிமனிதத் தேவைகளின் அடிப்படையில் தயாரிக்கப்படுவதில்லை. (ஸ்டாண்டர்ட் சைஸ்களில் உள்ள ப்ளேட்டுகள் மட்டுமே பயன்படுத்தப்படுகின்றன) அதனை ஆளுக்கேற்ற மாதிரி 3டி பிரிண்டிங் தொழில்நுட்பத்தில் தயாரிப்பதுடன் அது மனித உடலில் அலர்ஜி ஏற்படாவண்ணம் நானோ டெக்னாலஜியைப் பயன்படுத்தி அதன் மீது பூச்சுப் பூசுவது என்பதே எனது இப்போதைய ஆராய்ச்சி. இதே போல் இருதயத்தில் பொருத்தப்படும் ஸ்டண்ட்டிலும் மனித உடலுக்குப் பொருந்தச் செய்யும் வகையில் கோட்டிங் கொடுப்பது என்பம் எனது ஆராய்ச்சியில் உள்ள விஷயங்கள்தான். இதற்க இங்கிலாந்து அரசே நிதியுதவி செய்து வருகிறது’ என்று பேசிக் கொண்டே போகிறார் ஜெயசீலன்.
இவர் செய்து வரும் ஆராய்ச்சி குறித்து இங்கிலாந்து பாராளுமன்றத்தில் பேச அழைக்கப்பட்டதை பெருமையாக கருதுகிறார் இவர். அப்படி வாய்ப்புக் கிடைத்த முதல் இந்தியரும் இவர் என்பதும் தமிழ்நாட்டுக்குப் பெருமை சேர்க்கும் விஷயம்.
“எனது நண்பர்களுடன் சேர்ந்து “லேர்ன்’ (எல்.இ.ஏ.ஆர்.என்) என்ற ட்ரஸ்ட்டை தத்தமங்கலத்தில் நிறுவி அதன்மூலம் அரசுப் பள்ளிகளில் படிக்கும் ஏழை மாணவர்களுக்கு உதவுகிறோம். அவர்களின் அறிவியல் ஆர்வத்தைத் தூண்டவேண்டும் என்பதும் என் ஆசை’ என்கிறார் இந்த இளம் விஞ்ஞானி.

How to Install Love in Your Heart !!!…

NatarajanLeave a comment

There are a lot of metaphors for love, but I think this is one of the best metaphors for ‘installing’ love in our lives. A great little dialog between a customer support representative and a woman who wants to install… love.

Support Rep. : Hello ma’am, how can I help you today?

Client: Well, I’ve been thinking about it for a while, and I’ve finally decided to install LOVE. I was hoping you could help me through the process.

Support: Of course ma’am, no problem. Are you ready to continue?

Client: Well, I’m not a very technical person, but yes, I think I’m ready to install now. What’s the first step?

Support: First you must open HEART. Have you located your HEART?

Client: Yes I have, but there are several other programs running right now. Is it okay to install while they are running?

Support: What programs are running ma’am?

Client: Let’s see, I have PAST-HURT.EXE, LOW-ESTEEM.EXE, GRUDGE.EXE, and RESENTMENT.COM running right now.

Support: No problem. LOVE will gradually erase PAST-HURT.EXE from your current operating system. It may remain in your permanent memory, but it will no longer disrupt other programs. LOVE will eventually overwrite LOW-ESTEEM.EXE with a module of its own called HIGH-ESTEEM.EXE. However, you have to completely turn off GRUDGE.EXE and RESENTMENT.COM. Those programs prevent LOVE from being properly installed. Can you turn those off ma’am?

Client: I don’t know how to turn them off. Can you tell me how?

Support: My pleasure. Go to your Start menu and invoke FORGIVENESS.EXE. Do this as many times as necessary until GRUDGE.EXE and RESENTMENT.COM have been completely erased.

Client: Okay, done. LOVE has started installing itself automatically. Is that normal?

Support : Yes. You should receive a message that says it will reinstall for the life of your HEART. Do you see that message?

Client: Yes I do. Is it completely installed?

Support : Yes, but remember that you have only the base program. You need to begin connecting to other HEART’s in order to get the upgrades.

Client: Oops. I have an error message already. What should I do?

Support: What does the message say?

Client: It says ‘ERROR 412 – PROGRAM NOT RUN ON INTERNAL COMPONENTS.’ What does that mean?

Support: Don’t worry ma’am, that’s a common problem. It means that the LOVE program is set up to run on external HEARTS but has not yet been run on your HEART. It is one of those complicated programming things, but in non-technical terms it means you have to ‘LOVE’ your own machine before it can ‘LOVE’ others.

Client: So what should I do?

Support : Can you pull down the directory called ‘SELF-ACCEPTANCE’?

Client: Yes, I have it.

Support : Excellent. You’re getting good at this.

Client: Thank you.

Support: You’re welcome. Click on the following files and then copy them to the ‘MYHEART’ directory: FORGIVE-SELF.DOC, REALIZE-WORTH.TXT, and ACKNOWLEDGE-LIMITATIONS.DOC. The system will overwrite any conflicting files and begin patching any faulty programming. Also, you need to delete VERBOSE-SELF-CRITIC.EXE from all directories, and then empty your recycle bin afterwards to make sure it is completely gone and never comes back.

Client: Got it. Hey! My HEART is filling up with new files. SMILE.MPG is playing on my monitor right now and it shows that PEACE.EXE, and CONTENTMENT.COM are copying themselves all over my HEART. Is this normal?

Support: Sometimes. For others it takes a while, but eventually everything gets downloaded at the proper time. So, LOVE is installed and running. You should be able to handle it from here. One more thing before I go.

Client: Yes?

Support : LOVE is freeware. Be sure to give it and its various modules to everybody you meet. They will in turn share it with other people and they will return some similarly cool modules back to you.

Client: I will. Thanks for your help!

Message For the Day…Do not Deviate from Right Conduct for the Sake of Wealth..

NatarajanLeave a comment

Always remember that your education is not merely to amass wealth or to eke out a livelihood. Money cannot confer true happiness. Do not deviate from Right Conduct (Dharma) for the sake of wealth (Dhana). Dharma is our life; Truth is our breath; and Good Reputation is our wealth. You should not crave for worldly name and fame. Once you practise Dharma, you will naturally attain good reputation.Dharma is related to the heart. Practise of Dharma is termed as Ritam which will make you immortal. We have today forgotten the great scholars and those who demonstrated great ideals. We should remember people who have sacrificed their life for a noble cause and try to emulate them. It is the spirit of sacrifice that has protected and sustained this country and this Universe for many generations. Offer your lives for the protection of Dharmaand not for amassing wealth.

” God has You in HIS Plan…Do You Have GOD in Your Plan ” ?

NatarajanLeave a comment

 

Have faith in God’s plan

Once there was a sweeper in a well known temple and he was very sincere and devoted. Every time he saw thousands of devotees coming to take darshan of the Lord,he thought that the Lord is standing all the time and giving darshan and He must be feeling very tired.

So one day very innocently he asked the Lord whether he can take the place of the Lord for a day so that the Lord can have some relief and rest.The Deity of Temple replied, “I do not mind taking a break. I will transform you like Myself, but you must do one thing.you must just stand here like Me, smile at everyone and just give benedictions.
Do not interfere with anything and do not say anything.Remember you are the deity and you just have faith that I have a master plan for everything. The sweeper agreed to this. The next day the sweeper took the position of the deity and a rich man came and prayed to the Lord. He offered a nice donation and prayed that his business should be prosperous. While going, the rich man inadvertently left his wallet full of money right there. Now the sweeper in the form of deity could not call him and so he decided to control himself and keep quiet. Just then a poor man came and he put one coin in the Hundi and said that it was all he could afford and he prayed to the Lord that he should continue to be engaged in the Lord’s service. He also said that his family was in dire need of some basic needs but he left it to the good hands of the Lord to give some solution.
 When he opened his eyes, he saw the wallet left by the rich man.The poor man thanked the Lord for His kindness and took the wallet very innocently. The sweeper in the form of the Deity could not say anything and he had to just keep smiling.
 At that point a sailor walked in. He prayed for his safe journey as he was going on a long trip.Just then the rich man came with the police and said that somebody has stolen his wallet and seeing the sailor there, he asked the police to arrest him thinking that he might have taken it.
Now the sweeper in the form of Deity wanted to say that the sailor is not the thief but he could not say so and he became greatly frustrated. The sailor looked at the Lord and asked why he, an innocent person, is being punished.The rich man looked at the Lord and thanked Him for finding the thief. The sweeper in the deity form could no more tolerate and he thought that even if the real Lord had been here, he would have definitely interfered and hence he started speaking and said that the sailor is not the thief but it was the poor man who took away the wallet. The rich man was very thankful as also the sailor.
 In the night, the real Lord came and He asked the sweeper how the day was. The sweeper said, “I thought it would be easy, but now I know that Your days are not easy, but I did one good thing.” Then he explained the whole episode to the Lord. 
The Lord became very upset on hearing this whereas the sweeper thought the Lord would appreciate him for the good deed done. The Lord asked, “Why did you not just stick to the plan? You had no faith in Me. Do you think that I do not understand the hearts of all those who come here? All the donation which the rich man gave was all stolen money and it is only a fraction of what he really has and he wants Me to reciprocate unlimitedly. The single coin offered by the poor man was the last coin he was having and he gave it to Me out of faith.
 The sailor might not have done anything wrong, but if the sailor were to go in the ship that night he was about to die because of bad weather and instead if he is arrested he would be in the jail and he would have been saved form a greater calamity.
 The wallet should go to the poor man because he will use it in My service. I was going to reduce the rich man’s karma also by doing this and save the sailor also. But you canceled everything because you thought you know My plan and you made your own plans.”
 Moral: God has plans and justice for everyone….We just have to have patience!!!!!
This reminds me about another nice quote which we used to see in a church on the way to Melbourne Mahaprabhu mandir.

Message For The Day…” Devotion is Attachment to God “…

NatarajanLeave a comment

In every one of you, God is the moving spirit, the very Soul; how then can you be evil, when you are here fulfilling God’s purpose, according to His will, His plan and His law? God has endowed you with many faculties so that you may seek Him and reach Him. You are not therefore, a helpless and neglected individual undergoing a sentence of death. You are an embodiment of bliss, born to a rich heritage, which is all yours! Only you fail to ask. Have faith in your destiny and work steadily to attain it! Devotion is attachment to God – you need not leave hearth and home for it. If the seed is planted away from the parent tree, will it grow any different? No! Boil the seed and then it will not grow again. Similarly, boil your instincts and impulses, and scorch the sensory cravings that enslave you. Then you will get nearer to God, wherever you may be.

Message For the Day…Need for Self Realisation …

NatarajanLeave a comment

Mud existed before plates and pots were made out of it; pots and plates are mud, and mud will remain when plates and pots are no more. The plate and the pot must be aware of their being always mud; that in other words, is Self-Realisation. When that is achieved, wherever your eyes are cast, you will find yourself; and wherever your attention is directed, you will see your reflection. Begin to feel it now, from this very moment! Seek to identify yourself as part of the grand and glorious Entity, for all Grandeur and all Glory is His, ultimately!

Laughter The Best Medicine …”He came here to buy Anacin…” !!!

Natarajan1 Comment

The Manager says: “Do you have any sales experience?”

The Indian says: “Sir, I was a salesman back home in India.”

Well, the boss liked the Indian chappies so he gave him the job. “You
start tomorrow.. I’ll come down after we close and see how you did.”
His first day on the job was rough but he got through it.

After the store was locked up, the boss came down.
“How many sales did you make today?”

Indian boy says: “Sir, Just ONE sale.”

The boss says: “Just one? No! No! No! You see here our sales people
average 20 or 30 sales a day.” If you want to keep this job, you’d
better be doing better than just one sale. By the way, how much was
the sale for?”

Indian boy says: ” $101 237. 64″

Boss says: “$101 237. 64? What the hell did you sell?”

Indian boy says: “Sir, First I sold  him small fishhook.
Then I sold him medium fishhook.
Then I sold  him large fishhook.
Then I sold him new fishing rod and some fishing gear.

Then I ask him where he’s going fishing and he said down on the
coast, so I told him he’ll be needing a boat, so we went down to the
boating department and I sold him twin engine Chris Craft.
Then he said he didn’t think his Honda Civic would pull it, so I took
him down to our automotive department and sell him that 4X4 Blazer.
I then ask him where he’ll be staying, and since he had no
accommodation, I took him to camping department and sold him one of
those new igloo 6 sleeper camper tents.
Then the guy said, while we’re at it, I should throw in about $100
worth of groceries and two cases of beer.

The boss said: “You’re not serious? A guy came in here to buy a
fishhook and you sold him a boat, a 4X4 truck and a tent?”

Indian boy says: “No Sir, actually he came in to buy Anacin for his
headache, and I said: Well, fishing is the best way to relax your
mind.”
