If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.
If you are honest, people may cheat you. Be honest anyway.
If you find happiness, people may be jealous. Be happy anyway.
The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway.

Duty And Dediaction



If one does not perform duty to one whom the duty is due, one becomes a thief of the duty.

Avesta, Videvidad 4.1 
*
Your work is to discover your work and then with all your heart to give yourself to it. That's the mark of a true professional.

Gautama Buddha * Doing is very good, but that comes from thinking...fill the brain, therefore, with high thoughts, highest, ideals; place them day and night before you; and out of that will come great work.

Swami Vivekananda
*
Hard work is painful when life is devoid of purpose. But when you live for something greater than yourself and the gratification of your own ego, then hard work becomes a labour of love.

Steve Pavlina

Word of wisdom


Jesus of Nazareth

"The Kingdom of Heaven is inside you and it is outside you.
Split a piece of wood, and I am there.
Lift up the stone and there you will find me."

"Truly, truly, I say to you,
He who believes in me will also do the works that I do;
and Greater Works than These will he do."

"Ask, and it will be given you.
Seek, and you will find.
Knock, and it will be opened to you."

"LOVE ONE ANOTHER!"

-Jesus of Nazerath


Dalai Lama

"My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness."

"If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion."

"Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can't help them, at least don't hurt them."

"Whether one believes in a religion or not, and whether one believes in rebirth or not, there isn't anyone who doesn't appreciate kindness and compassion."

"This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness."

- Dalai Lama





Anandamayi Ma

"Who is it that loves and who that suffers?
He alone stages a play with Himself.
The individual suffers because he perceives duality.
Find the One everywhere and in everything
and there will be an end to pain and suffering."

"I find one vast garden spread out all over the universe.
All plants, all human beings, all higher mind bodies
are about in this garden in various ways,
each has his own uniqueness and beauty.
Their presence and variety give me great delight.
Every one of you adds with his special feature to the glory of the garden."

"God is without form, without quality as well as with form and quality.
Watch and see with what endless variety of beautiful forms
He plays the play of his maya with Himself alone.
The lila of the all pervading One goes on and on in this way in infinite diversity.
He is without beginning and without end.
He is the whole and also the part.
The whole and part together make up real Perfection."

"He alone knows to whom He will reveal Himself under which form.
By what path and in what manner He attracts any particular man to Himself
with great force is incomprehensible to the hu ma n intellect.
The Path differs indeed for different pilgrims."

"You should kindle fire by any means,
either with clarified butter or sandalwood or even straw.
Once alight, the fire burns on; all worries, darkness and gloom gradually disappear.
The fire will burn to ash all obstacles."

"Just as fire burns away all dross and rubbish,
so the three fold suffering purges man's heart from all impurity
and results in a growing single mindedness in his search after Truth.
When he becomes deeply conscious of his weakness and tormented by the thoughts
of his undesirable impulses and distressing characteristics,
when afflictions like poverty, bereavement or humiliation ma ke him feel his life is futile,
then and then only does he develop real faith and religious fervor,
and becomes anxious to surrender himself at the feet of the Supreme Being.
Suffering should therefore be welcomed.
Never does the soft moonlight appear more soothing than after the scorching heat of a summer day."

"Always bear this in mind:
Everything is in God's hands,
and you are His tool to be used by Him as He pleases.
Try to grasp the significance of 'all is His'
and you will immediately feel free from all burdens.
What will be the result of your surrender to Him?
None will seem alien, all will be your very own Self."

"To believe in Him under any particular form is not enough.
Accept Him in His numberless forms, shapes and modes of being, in everything that exists.
Aim at the whole and all your actions will be whole."

- Anandamayi Ma








Albert Einstein

"A human being is part of the whole, called by us the "Universe," a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts, and feelings, as something separated from the rest--a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty."

- Albert Einstein









Mahatma Gandhi

"You must be the change you want to see in the world...Every moment of your life is infinitely creative and the universe is endlessly bountiful. Just put forth a clear enough request and everything your heart desires must come to you."

- Mahatma Gandhi
