Inner Happiness

The blossom of love

Living beyond the reach of i and mind, and of pain and pleasure, full of mercy, contented, self-controlled, with all his heart and all his mind given to Me — with such a one I am in love. 

Bhagwad Gita, 12.13

* 

The blossom of love will make the air fragrant; the river of love will murmur along the valleys; and every bird, beast and child will sing the song of love. 

Atharva Veda

* 

A life without love is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead. The consciousness of loving and being loved brings a warmth and richness to life that nothing else can bring. 

Oscar Wilde 

*

Love is the ultimate truth that lies at the heart of creation. 

Rabindranath Tagore

The Battle Of Life

The one who is well armed for the battle of life - that is, possesses good qualities, becomes successful and prosperous - such a person experiences the real happiness.

Sama Veda *

Of all gains, good health is the greatest. Of all wealth, contentment is the greatest. Among kinsmen, the trusty is the greatest. Freedom is ultimate happiness.

Dhammapada 203-05 *

Life finds its purpose and fulfillment in the expansion of happiness.

Maharishi Mahesh Yogi *

I believe that the very purpose of life is to seek happiness.

The XIV Dalai Lama *

There is pleasure when a sore is scratched, but to be without sores is more pleasurable still. Just so, there are pleasures in worldly desires, but to be without desires is more pleasurable still.

Nagarjuna*

Nature at Its Best

Amazing nature in Dharmashala

I think of the garden after the rain

For truly, I say to you, if you have faith as tiny as a grain of mustard seed, you will move this mountain, "Move from here to there," and it will move; and nothing will be impossible to you.

Bible

Faith is the bird that feels the light and sings when the dawn is still dark.

Rabindranath Tagore

I think of the garden after the rain;

And hope to my heart comes singing,

At morn the cherry-blooms will be white,

And the Easter bells be ringing!

Edna D Proctor

The biggest misconception about hope is that it keeps you going in life. It is not hope but understanding which keeps you going. Therefore, have a deeper understanding of your needs - then you can live with the right amount of action.

Happy Lobor Day 2012

Work hard, but not just to please your masters when they are watching. Work with enthusiasm, as though you were working for God rather than for people.

Ephesians 6.6-7

*

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

Avesta

*

It is not your duty to complete the work, but neither are you free to desist from it Know that the grant of reward to the righteous will be in the time to come.

Avot 2.21

*

All labour that uplifts humanity has dignity and importance and should be undertaken with painstaking excellence.

Martin Luther King, Jr

*

Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life.

Confucius

*

I believe in the dignity of labour, whether with head or hand; that the world owes no man a living but that it owes every man an opportunity to make a living.

Motivating and Inspiring Good Morning Thoughts

The best thing parents can do

for their children is to love each other.

No-one ever ruined their eyesight

by looking on the bright side !

A Soft Nature Of A Person Doesn't Mean Weakness...

Remember.... Nothing Is Softer Than Water...

But Its Force Can Break The Strongest Of Rock..!!

Harsh words break no bones

but they do break hearts.

To get out of a difficulty,

one usually must go through it.

God didn't promise days without pain,

laughter without sorrow, sun without rain,

but He did promise strength for the day,

comfort for the tears, and light for the way.

The trouble with being too punctual is that

no one is there to appreciate it.

The fragrance of flowers spreads only in the direction of wind,

but the goodness of person spreads in all direction.

You can stand tall without standing on someone.

You can be a victor without having victims.

~ Harriett Woods

Just when i got all answers of life......

God changed my question.....

Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people

before meeting the right one,

so that when we finally meet the person,

we will know how to be grateful !

We take for granted the things

that we should be giving thanks for.

For every minute you are angry with someone,

you lose 60 seconds of happiness

that you can never get back.

Do what you can, for who you can,

with what you have, and where you are.

Amazing Quotes And Inspirations

For the soul there is neither birth nor death at any time.

He has not come into being, does not come into being, and will not come into being.

He is unborn, eternal, ever-existing and primeval.

He is not slain when the body is slain.

Bhagwad Gita 2.20 *

We should free ourselves from all debts before death so that our soul could rest in peace. Atharva Veda *

Bondage is of the mind; freedom too is of the mind. If you say 'I am a free soul. I am a son of God who can bind me' free you shall be.

Ramakrishna Paramahamsa *

Rules For Living

Dalai Lama’s 18 rules for living

At the start of the new millennium the Dalai Lama apparently issued eighteen rules for living. Since word travels slowly in the digital age these have only just reached me. Here they are.

1. Take into account that great love and great achievements involve great risk.
2. When you lose, don’t lose the lesson.
3. Follow the three Rs
   Respect for self
   Respect for others
   Responsibility for all your actions.
4. Remember that not getting what you want is sometimes a wonderful stroke of luck.
5. Learn the rules so you know how to break them properly.
6. Don’t let a little dispute injure a great friendship.
7. When you realize you’ve made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it.
8. Spend some time alone every day.
9. Open your arms to change, but don’t let go of your values.
10. Remember that silence is sometimes the best answer.
11. Live a good, honourable life. Then when you get older and think back, you’ll be able to enjoy it a second time.
12. A loving atmosphere in your home is the foundation for your life.
13. In disagreements with loved ones, deal only with the current situation. Don’t bring up the past.
14. Share your knowledge. It’s a way to achieve immortality.
15. Be gentle with the earth.
16. Once a year, go someplace you’ve never been before.

Enjoy Every Minute

My father used to play with my brother and me in the yard.
Mother would come out and say, You're tearing up the grass.
We're not raising grass, Dad would reply.We Are raising boys.

~Harmon Killebrew

Fathers matter. So does keeping the important things in perspective.
The lawn will always be there, but children grow up and move away, and being a parent to lively young children is fleeting it. Enjoy every minute!

Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.
