Have a great week ahead full of joy and success!!!!!!



Trees give fruits to assist others. Rivers flow to help others.
Cows produce milk to feed others. In the same way, our own human
body should also be employed for the assistance of others.

-Subhashita

He who is of calm and happy nature will hardly feel the pressure of
age, but to him who is of an opposite disposition youth and age are
equally a burden.

-Plato
Each flower is a soul opening out to nature.
- Gerard de Nerval

We have stopped for a moment to encounter each other. To meet, to
love, to share. It is a precious moment, but it is transient. It is
a little parentheses in eternity. If we share with caring,
lightheartedness, and love, we will create abundance and joy for
each other, and this moment will have been worthwhile.
- Deepak Chopra, M.D.

As fuel that is wet burns with that which is dry, so a sinless man
is punished equally with the sinful in consequence of constant
association with the latter

-Vidura Niti


Be daring, be different, be impractical, be anything that will
assert integrity of purpose and imaginative vision against the play-
it-safers, the creatures of the commonplace, the slaves of the
ordinary.

-Cecil Beaton

Wise men talk because they have something to say;fools, because they
have to say something.

-Plato



Courage is the discovery that you may not win, and trying when you
know you can lose."

-Tom Krause



No one knows what will happen to whom tomorrow. So a wise man should
do all of tomorrow's tasks today.

-Subhashita



The greatest good you can do for another is not just to share your
riches, but to reveal to him his own.

-Benjamin Disraeli



Striving for success without hard work is like trying to harvest
where you haven't planted"

That man is regarded as the first of his species, who wishes for the
prosperity of all and never sets his heart on the misery of others,
who is truthful in speech, humble in behaviour, and has all his
passions under control.

It is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.

- General Douglas MacArthur



A friend is tested in bad times, a warrior in the battle field. A
person's humility is a test of his up-bringing.  A person's
character is tested when he needs money and does not have it.

-Subhashitani



Don't knock the weather; nine-tenths of the people couldn't start a
conversation if it didn't change once in a while.

- Kin Hubbard



Man...is a tame or civilized animal; never the less,he requires
proper instruction and a fortunate nature,and then of all animals he
becomes the most divine and most civilized; but if he be
insufficiently or ill-educated he is the most savage of earthly
creatures.

-Plato



Never think there is anything impossible for the soul. It is the
greatest heresy to think so. If there is sin, this is the only sin ?
to say that you are weak, or others are weak.

-Swami Vivekananda



The kiss of the sun for pardon, the song of the birds for mirth, one
is nearer God's Heart in a garden than anywhere else on earth.

Have a great week ahead full of joy and success!!!!!!!!!

Success is not measured by what you accomplish, but by the
opposition you have encountered, and the courage with which you have
maintained the struggle against overwhelming odds.
- Swett Marden quotes

Don't wait until everything is just right. It will never be perfect.
There will always be challenges, obstacles and less than perfect
conditions. So what. Get started now. With each step you take, you
will grow stronger and stronger, more and more skilled, more and
more self-confident and more and more successful."
- Mark Victor Hansen quotes

Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life - think of it, dream
of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part
of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea
alone. This is the way to success, that is way great spiritual
giants are produced."
-Swami Vivekananda

There is no parallel to the peace of mind that people get when they
are content and happy. Just look at the other extreme, people
who are greedy and dissatisfied are running from pillar to post in
search of wealth.
-Subhashita

We measure the effectiveness of the true leader not in terms of the
leadership he exercises but in terms of the leadership he evokes;
not in terms of his power over others, but in terms of the power he
releases in others; not in terms of the goals he sets and the
direction he gives but in terms of the plans of action others work
out for themselves with his help; not in terms of decisions made,
events completed, and the inevitable success and growth that follow
from such released energy, but in terms of growth in competence,
sense of responsibility, and in personal satisfaction among many
participants. Under this kind of leadership it may not always be
clear at any given moment who is leading. Nor is this important.
What is important is that others are learning to lead well.
—ROBERT W. GALVIN

The stage is not merely the meeting place of all the arts, but is
also the return of art to life.

Any remainder of debt, fire and enemy grow rapidly again and again,
hence no remainder should be maintained.
-Subhashita

He, therefore, who desires peace should prepare for war.  He who
aspires to victory should spare no pains to form his soldiers.  And
he who hopes for success should fight on principle, not chance.
- Vegetius (De reiMilitari)

Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by
people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at
all.

We are what our thoughts have made us; so take care about what you
think. Words are secondary. Thoughts live; they travel far.

all relationships.

Don't limit yourself. Many people limit themselves to what they
think they can do. You can go as far as you mind lets you. What you
believe, you can achieve.

- Mary Kay Ash



Reactions to calamities should be considered well in advance.
It is no good to start digging a well when the house is on fire !

-Subhashita



War educates the senses, calls into action the will, perfects the
physical constitution, brings men into such swift and close
collision in critical moments that man measures man.

- Ralph Waldo Emerson



Service is the rent we pay for being. It is the very purpose of
life, and not something you do in your spare time.

-Marion Wright Edelman



To enhance the quality of the day... That is the highest of the arts.

- Henry David Thoreau



The goal of mankind is knowledge ... Now this knowledge is inherent
in man. No knowledge comes from outside: it is all inside. What we
say a man 'knows', should, in strict psychological language, be what
he 'discovers' or 'unveils'; what man 'learns' is really what he
discovers by taking the cover off his own soul, which is a mine of
infinite knowledge.

-Swami Vivekananda

There are two lasting bequests we can give our children: One is
roots. The other is wings.

-Hodding Carter, Jr



When you follow your bliss... doors will open where you would not
have thought there would be doors; and where there wouldn't be a
door for anyone else.

-Joseph Campbell



People don't care how much you know, until they know how much you
care.

-Unknown



Knowledge is proud that she knows so much; Wisdom is humble that she
knows no more.

- Cowper



We are what our thoughts have made us; so take care about what you
think. Words are secondary. Thoughts live; they travel far.

-Swami Vivekananda



Whether the philosophers praise him or criticize, whether wealth
enters the house or goes away as it wishes, whether death is today
itself or after an eon, great men never step a foot away from the
path of justice.

-Subhashita

Have a great week ahead full of joy and success!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Before taking any action, whether good or bad, wise men should
carefully ponder over its consequences. Or else, the result of  an
act done in haste keeps piercing the heart like an arrow even after
death.
-Subhashita

Our greatest battles are that with our own minds.
- Jameson Frank

As gold is tested in four ways by rubbing, cutting, heating and
beating - so a man should be tested by these four things:  his
renunciation, his conduct, his qualities and his actions.
-Chanakya niti


Grief drives men to serious reflection, sharpens the understanding
and softens the heart.
- John Adams


Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius,
magic and power in it. Begin it now.
- Goethe

So many people walk around with a meaningless life. They seem
half-asleep, even when they're busy doing things they think are
important. This is because they're chasing the wrong things. The way
you get meaning into your life is to devote yourself to  loving
others, devote yourself to your community around you, and devote
yourself to creating something that gives you purpose  and meaning.
- Morrie Schwartz

Have a great week ahead full of joy and success!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You should be ambitious and achieve them. You should never start
with a small aim. Your aim determine the nature of your
accomplishments. If you are not ambitious enough, you shall not get
enough to eat.
-Subhashita

Get a good idea and stay with it. Dog it, and work at it until it's
done
right. - Walt Disney

Wicked people decry a modest person as dull, a person observing
religious vows as showy, a holy person as a charlatan, a  brave one
as cruel, a hermit as foolish, a soft-spoken person as meek, a
bright one as vain, an orator as a glib-talker and a  patient person
as weak. Is there any quality of the virtuous that the wicked do not
condemn?
-Bhartrhari

Never give up your right to be wrong, because then you will lose the
ability to learn new things and to move forward with your life.
- Dr.David M. Burns

Listening is a high art of loving. Ask yourself, "When was the last
time I really listened to my child? My parent? My brother  or
sister?" When someone is ready to share, three magic words amplify
your connection, and they are: "Tell me more."
-Rev. Mary Manin Morrissey

Be a life long or short, its completeness depends on what it was
lived for.
- David Starr Jordan

Have a great week ahead full of joy and success!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That which we persist in doing becomes easier - not that the nature
of the task has changed, but our ability to do has increased.
- Emerson

The spiritual journey is individual, highly personal.
It can't be organized or regulated.
It isn't true that everyone should follow one path.
Listen to your own truth.
-Ramdas

Try not to become a man of success, but rather a man of value.
- Albert Einstein

The path of service is formidable.  It is difficult even for a yogi
to follow.  If a man in service remains quiet, then he is  called
dumb. If he is quick-witted, then he is described as loquacious.  If
he stays close by, then he is taken to be  audacious, and if he
maintains a distance, then is considered as shy.  If he is tolerant,
then he is regarded as timid, and  if he is unable to bear
indignities, then he is known as ill bred.
-Subhashita

There is no accomplishment in life better than a peace of mind and a
happy home.
- Blessing Onuoha

Get a good idea and stay with it. Dog it, and work at it until it's

Have a great week ahead full of joy and success!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Make no little plans; they have no magic to stir men's blood and
probably themselves will not be realized. Make big plans; aim high in
hope and work, remembering that a noble, logical diagram once recorded
will never die, but long after we are gone will be a living thing,
asserting itself with ever-growing insistence.
- Daniel H. Burnham

Every truth has two sides. It is well to look at both sides before we
commit ourselves to either side.
- Aesop

A man of culture does not speak unpleasantly though burnt by the
burning coals of displeasing talk. Does the fragrant aloe  wood
abandon its natural fragrance when being burnt?
-Subhashita


Accumulated wealth is saved by spending just as incoming fresh water
is saved by letting out stagnant water.
-Chanakya niti

Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present
and not giving it.
- William Arthur Ward

The manner in which one endures what must be endured is more
important than the thing that must be endured.

That man, without knowing his own strength and dissociated from both
virtue and profit, desires an object difficult of  acquisition,
without again adopting adequate means, is said to be destitute of
intelligence

We cannot fight against anything, unless we fight for something -- and
what we must fight for is the supremacy of reason, and a view of man
as a rational being.

If we do not learn to live together as friends, we will die apart as
fools.

If I accept you as you are, I will make you worse; however if I treat
you as though you are what you are capable of becoming, I help you
become that.

never associate with one of wicked and impure soul.

Wealth, a friend, a wife, and a kingdom may be regained; but this
body when lost may never be acquired again.

make me easy to live with. So strengthen me that the power  of my
example will far exceed the authority of my rank.

Healing does not mean going back to the way things were before, but
rather allowing what is now to move us closer to God
-Ramdas

Throughout the years of your life you will face many challenges,
remember that you can climb the highest mountain, drive through the
roughest storm, soar across the bluest sky, or even sail across the
roughest waters. It is only destined by your attitude where you will
end up in life. The most important thing is don't let yourself get
lost in the crowd.
- Angela Duvall

Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by
people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at
all.
- Dale Carnegie

He restrains his friend from committing sins, and induces him to do
good deeds.  He conceals the unseemly secrets of a  friend,
projecting only his good qualities.  He does not desert his friend in
difficulties, but gives timely assistance.   Saints describe these as
the characteristics of a true friend.
-Subhashita

Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind
word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest  act of
caring,all of which have the potential to turn a life around.

better aim at something high.

inside. It is as though something inside your body responds  and
says, yes, this is how I ought to feel.

Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly. I can never be
what I ought to be until you are what you ought to be. This is the
interrelated structure of reality.

With the ocean set ablaze
The smoke yet manifests not

wife, food given by Providence and wealth acquired by  honest effort;

Have a great week ahead full of joy and success!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Teamwork is neither "good" nor "desirable." It is a fact. Wherever
people work together or play together they do so as a team. Which team
to use for what purpose is a crucial, difficult and risky decision
that is even harder to unmake. Managements have yet to learn how to
make it.
- Peter F. Drucker

When people have nothing, all they want is a handful of grains. When
they become wealthy, they treat the world like a straw.  Material
objects by themselves are not great or worthless. It is the
fluctuating fortune of people that makes things appear  big or small.
-Bhartrhari

I am responsible for my own well-being, my own hapiness.  The choices
and decisions I make regarding my life directly  influences the
quality of my days.
-Kathleen Andrus

Fear is death, fear is sin, fear is hell, fear is unrighteousness,
fear is wrong life. All the negative thoughts and ideas  that are in
the world have proceeded from this evil spirit of fear.
-Swami Vivekananda

Truth is a deep kindness that teaches us to be content in our everyday
life and share with the people the same happiness.
- Kahlil Gibran

Joy increases as you give it, and diminishes as you try to keep it
for yourself. In giving it, you will accumulate a deposit  of joy
greater than you ever believed possible.

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.
- H.H. the Dalai Lama

Hunger, Thirst,  and desire are like man's three wives. Until he is
alive these three will never leave him or go else where.  In
comparison of the three, desire NEVER EVER leaves the man. Unlike
hunger and thirst which disappear for some time after
eating /drinking, desire is the thing which never disappeares from
man's mind!!
-Subhashita

You will find as you look back upon your life that the moments when
you have truly lived are the moments when you have done  things in
the  spirit of love.
-Henry Drummond

We are obligated to be more scrupulous in fulfilling the commandment
of charity than any other positive commandment because charity is the
sign of a righteous man.
- Maimonides, Mishneh Torah


It is literally true that you can succeed best and quickest by helping
others to succeed.
- Napoleon Hill

Better is a handful of quietness than both hands full, together with
toil and grasping for the wind.
- The Bible

To die for the revolution is a one-shot deal; to live for the
revolution means taking on the more difficult commitment of  changing
our day-to-day life patterns.

These three, besides, being destructive to one's own self, are the
gates of hell, viz., lust, anger, and covetousness.  Therefore, every

Have a great week ahead full of joy and success!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have learned from speaking to many cancer survivor groups that the
watch on your hand no longer says, 'Tick, tick, tick.'  It now
says,'Precious, precious, precious.' When you come to know how
precious is the present moment, you'll understand the mystery we call
life.
-Steve Sobel


How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young,
compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and
tolerant of the weak and strong. Because someday in your life you
will have been all of these.
- George Washington Carver

Cherish your visions and your dreams, as they are the children of
your soul; the blueprints of your ultimate achievements.
-Anonymous

The association with good people removes the inertia of one's mind,
nurtures truth in the speech, enhances prestige, expiates  the sins,
comforts the conscience, spreads the name and fame in all
directions.  Say! what good is there which the company of  devout
does not bring to a man.
-Subhashita


Those who are destitute of learning, penance, knowledge, good
disposition, virtue and benevolence are brutes wandering the  earth
in the form of men. They are burdensome to the earth.
-Chanakya niti

Fifty years from now it will not matter what kind of car you drove,
what kind of house you lived in, how much you had in your  bank
account or what your clothes looked like. But the world may be a
little better place because you were important in the  life of a
child.
-Unknown

Have a great week ahead full of joy and success!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No one's happiness but my own is in my power to achieve or to
destroy.
-Ayn Rand

Base men do not undertake any work apprehending obstacles.  Mediocres
make a start, but cease working when they encounter  hindrances.  The
men of excellence, however, after commencing a job do not give up
despite of recurrence of impediments.
-Subhashita

The biggest guru-mantra is: Never share your secrets with anybody. It
will destroy you.
-Chanakya

Let go of the idea that your problem is permanent. Few troubles last
forever. And those that cannot be solved can usually be managed.
-Unknown

When you become detached mentally from yourself and concentrate on
helping other people with their difficulties, you will be  able to
cope with your own more effectively. Somehow, the act of self-giving
is a personal power-releasing factor.
- Norman Vincent Peale


Once you set a Standard live by it and die by it. Never lower your
Standards for anyone!
-Arcenio Cruz

Your decisions determine your direction, and your direction
determines your destiny.
- Unknown

The father who does not teach his son his duties is equally guilty
with the son who neglects them.
- Confucius

Bracelets do not adorn a person. Nor do pearl necklaces shining like
the moon, or a cleansing bath; nor anointment of the  body, nor
flowers, nor decoration for the hair.  It is cultured speech alone
which embellishes a man.  All other ornaments  lose their glitter,
only the jewel of speech ever remains the jewel of jewels.
-Subhashita

A well chiseled gem, a wounded victor, an elephant languid after rut,
a slender river during the fall, the narrow crescent of  the waning
moon, a young maiden fatigued after love, and people whose wealth has
dwindled because of charity - all these  become more charming in
their slenderness.
-Bhartrhari

Once the game is over, the king and the pawn go back in the same box.
-Unknown

Cherish your visions and your dreams, as they are the children of
your soul; the blueprints of your ultimate achievements.
- Anonymous

Some of the shells that wash up on the beach were once very
beautiful, you don't know what kind of journey they had to take  to
get them in there fragile shape, same with people, be kind.
-Linda Gifford

The difficulties faced by good people are almost always temporary: a
ball bounces back even when it is thrown down.
-Bhartrhari

Good conduct is the highest mortality, it is the highest penance and
it is the highest knowledge.  What cannot be achieved  through good
conduct?

Keep a secret, it's your slave. Tell it, and it's your master.

If you think you are too small to be effective,
you have never been in bed with a mosquito.

the wicked.

In the long run the pessimist may be proved right, but the optimist
has a better time on the trip.
-Daniel L. Reardon

Self-esteem must be earned! When you dare to dream, dare to follow
that dream, dare to suffer through the pain, sacrifice,  self-doubts,
and friction from the world, you will genuinely impress yourself.
-Laura Schlessinger

There is no official coronation ceremony held to declare that lion is

basis of all success
