  1. Dear Guest Saddened hindu jee, it is really pitiful to listen to your painful experience in a Gurdwara along with your small 6 year old daughter. I have to remind all my sikh brothers and sisters, wherever they maybe, that all Gurdwaras are not ours but of Guru Jee, who are the embodiment of all love, mercy and kindness, towards all humanity without any prejudiices, that is their unparalel mahanta. We must keep in mind there are 2 driving forces in the creation, one that of the mind or negativity, and the other one, of the kirpa of Wahiguru. Nowadays, when we see our own youngsters and not so youngsters, going away from Sikhee, let us ask ourselves, is it not because of the negative impluses of their minds, due to whatever reasons that maybe? On the other side, we also know, none can enter a Gurdwara, the gateway of the Guru, without His kirpa, His hukum. So if this family of saddened Hindu, or any others as well, come into a Gurdwara, is it not by the hukum of Akal Purukh? If they or anybody enters with sharda, prem, by His hukum, it is because He wants them to listen some Sat Bachan from the Bani, which in some future may surely sprout the truth of Wahiguru in them, it is just a matter of time, as no Bachan of the Bani goes wasted. All the sangat in a Gurdwara without any distiction, are guests of Wahiguru, and we as sikhs have a duty towards them, in making their stay comfortable and most respectable as possible during that time being, but never ever with hatred or anger, it is a sign of disrespect towards Sachay Patshah Wahiguru, to illtreat or misbehave with His guests. Guest saddened jee, I can assure you, not all my brothers and sisters of our community are as bad as they may appear to be. We have ample proofs about it, whenever there are any disasters anywhere, our community are the first ones to go and succour those in distress. This is the main and real feature of humanity, implemented on us as selfless sewadars of Wahiguru Akal Purukh. A couple of weeks ago, there were heavy rainfalls in Mumbai, and it was our community who opened the doors of Gurdwaras to assist and help with food and water, those who were caught up in the high waters I am quite aware, no one can never ever change the world however the intentions are good, because human beings are most complicated and difficult creatures. They can be good as angles or bad as devils, because of the devlish fanatism and narrow mindedness, fueled by some fools, so to say. So as I told you, Sikhee is above all religions and fanatism. It is the polluted mind of those who misbehave, which impulses them to be so devlish and unhuman. Also I will tell you, if ever you come across others who talk badly of sikhs with hatred just like that, please contribute yourself by telling them also to remove that hatred from their minds, for blood can not wash blood, there has to be a full stop and a new begining of peace and harmony among all communities. We may fall down many a times, but nevertheless should give a try, because after all it is our good karam and bhakti which counts in the end. Guest jee, may God bless you. Sat Sree Akal.
  2. I very much agree with jkvlondon Pen Jee. Sree Guru Nanak Dev Maharaj, clears all our doubts regarding that primal universal eternal Truth, right from the very begining of SGGS, when He states : Ik Oankar Satnam. There is only one Lord Creator, not multiplicity in forms or shapes and sizes, as these gods are along with their spouses and children. And that One Lord is Sat = Truth as eternity in existence, and as Nam, as an Infinite Ocean of formless Consciousness. That´s it. Third Patshahee Sree Guru Amar Das Maharaj tells us in Raag Maajh : ਉਤਪਤਿ ਪਰਲਉ ਸਬਦੇ ਹੋਵੈ ॥ Outhapath Paralo Sabadhae Hovai || Creation and destruction happen through the Word of the Shabad, ਸਬਦੇ ਹੀ ਫਿਰਿ ਓਪਤਿ ਹੋਵੈ ॥ Sabadhae Hee Fir Oupath Hovai || Through the Shabad, creation happens again. So that eternal Truth, is Naam or Shabad, as per Gurbani. Moreover, Dhan Dhan Satguru Nanak Dev Maharaj, tells us in Japji Sahib : Sach Khand vaseh Nirankar. in the region of eternal Truth, resides (Nirankar) the formless Lord, which is as thus: aad Sach, jugaad Sach, hae bhee Sach, Nanak hosee bhee Sach. So we can cleary see through the Bani, it is Shabad or Naam, which is the eternal form of Wahiguru Akal Purukh, as eternal Truth or Satnam. The trinity gods, godesses, devtays, angels and other spirtual beings, are usuallly mistaken as ultimate Truth, by most of the world. These gods/entities, have a purpose, a specfic job, to keep on the mayavee creation, that is it, but never ever are Wahiguru. Our goal is Wahiguru Akal Purukh alone, none else. Sat Sree Akal.
  3. Yes we do sit on chairs and wear socks, but we do also remove them and sit on the floor, if we want so. Have you ever been into a Gurdwara? How do you find us there? is it not similar to the video in your post? Then? What is your problem? Out of respect and tradition, when someone is doing parchar or keertan, we do sit in front of them on the floor and remove our socks. Chaudray jee, if you respect yourself, just respect our traditions. It is obvious, you have not paid attention to a single word in your video posted, rather looking at the surroundings. It is like a student going to class in school, pays not attention to what the teacher says, but looks around the ceilings, the floor and the walls. This attitude, will surely make him remain a dumb donkey!
  4. About anger, and tips to manage it gradually If our anger is a tool and it is in our control, then anger is good. But if anger controls us then we are in trouble, and the cause is also gone. There is nothing wrong in using anger as a weapon, but if it is cutting our own peace of mind, then we should use wisdom to safeguard ourselves. Here is some perspective on how to skillfully free one´s mind from the clutches of anger, and experience a balanced state of mind. 1 Give room for imperfection The main cause of anger is that we want perfection. We get angry over imperfections, but the world does have levels of perfection. Let´s give a little space for imperfection. When we give some space for imperfection, then patience increases in us. At home we keep a garbage can, isn't it? You cannot say, 'I won’t keep a garbage can at home'. Then there would be garbage all over the place. Anger is that garbage all over the house. When you give space for imperfection, you will put all the garbage in a can and let it be. Then you will see how you can manage your anger. So exercise patience towards imperfections. It takes time for imperfection to become perfection. How can you give that time? When you give space for it. Then compassion arises and anger disappears.

Then you will see how you can manage your anger. So exercise patience towards imperfections. It takes time for imperfection to become perfection. How can you give that time? When you give space for it. Then compassion arises and anger disappears. 2 Balance between expressing and suppressing our anger We can’t express anger all the time, we will cause so much damage to ourself and others around us. And we can’t suppress it all the time either, sometimes we need to express it otherwise we may explode. So, we have have to strike that right balance between expressing and suppressing our anger. Wisdom is knowing when to express it and when to suppress it. 3 Don’t get angry with yourself for getting angry It will take quite some time for a person to get to that level where anger does not even touch us. It will keep coming in different shades and intensities. When anger comes up, don’t start blaming yourself. One thing that can be very detrimental is you blaming yourself. Keep moving ahead. If you get angry, never mind, just let it come and go. Instead of looking at the cause of anger, look at the effect it is producing in your body and keep relaxing your body. 4 Keep good company We can never get cured of this disease called anger, if we keep the company of goons and bullies or let us say, consciousless minded people. So, whatever we cannot do alone, we can do it with the support of good company. Company has many benefits and a few drawbacks too, as it can also take up a lot of our energy. The positive effect is that good company gives us that much needed support to move forward. Whenever our mind goes topsy-turvy, or if our emotions are going up and down, at such times the good company will carry us forward. It will help us move through the situations. 5 Accept people as they are One of the principles of conquering anger is: Accept people and situations as they are. Accepting and creating room for others itself makes our personality much wider. If we don’t have that expanded consciousness, then we become very rigid in our outlook. People who irritate you, in some way or the other can bring about the best in you. They can bring out the talents and skills in you. See, when everyone around you is wonderful you don’t need any skill to handle a situation. It will only happen when there are people whom you think are unreasonable. So, take it as an exercise as much as possible. The moment deep acceptance starts coming from within, we will suddenly find the other person also changes. It is strange, but true. When we change, they also change. 6 Practice meditation Meditation will definitely provide that much needed strength to overcome anger. Practice it, and go deeper into meditation. You will feel the serenity and the change in you after meditation. Meditation brings transformation. Remember, any meditation that one may do, never goes waste.
  5. This is from a court room in Florida. Two classmates who passed out from the same middle school (Nautilus Middle School) met in the court room after many years.. one was the judge and the other an accused.... Before pronouncing the judgement, the lady judge enquired...whether he was the same person who studied with her. This made the accused very emotional and he started to cry... While expressing her pain in seeing him in this condition... the judge also did not forget to introduce him as a good student and a footballer during his school days... to the audience present there.. She also wished him good luck and said she wanted to see him lead a good life ahead in future.. The greatness of the lady judge lies in the fact that she didn't hesitate to recognize an old classmate or introduce him to everyone there... In a world where money and power sometimes make a person forget even his near relatives.. this is a perfect example of humility and wisdom.. to be learnt by all of us and the upcoming generations.

  7. His mahima brings unlimited joy and undescribable bliss in us, fills our whole being with His divine love, just as in the keertan of this video. Sat Sree Akal.
  8. Guest Jee, I am a heavy sinner all by myself, to sing His glory and explain it to anybody or make somebody, is out of my reach. For it is all by His kirpa, that we come to understand the pure paviter Bani in its full meausre. The Bani is so pure, that our corrupted minds fail to grasp its message, and the depth in it. Usually most of us, just swim just on the surface, thus we get nothing, for the true gems and pearls are got by diving deep into the Bani, which means living our lives faithfully accordingly to the Bani. Now, the Bani has the answer to the question you asked me, which is, the following jewel from Sri Sukhmani Sahib: Prabh kay simran gyan dhyaan tat budh. Which means: His Simran, brings us Braham Gyan and Tat Gyan (highest level of Braham Gyan). We start to listen to GurBani and start to understand it from within. This motivates us to further adopt GurBani in our daily life. Our commitment and belief in Gurbani and Akal Purakh just keeps on enhancing. When we do the Jaap of the Gurmantar Wahiguru, our dirty minds gets rubbed and cleansed from all its impurities, then only we start seeing and appreciating the true worthiness and the real beauty of the Bani, till then we are are mere parrots, means, only good, at tongue. Bani is a living consciouss force of Supreme Truth, which we have to implant it in our minds and hearts, through bhakti, to get the full benefits from it, and not just at the mouth/tongue. God bless you. Sat Sree Akal. P.S: please get an account here, as suggested by the brothers above, it is free.
  9. Eat First Yesterday l went to a restaurant. l saw there was a WiFi service, so l asked for the password. The waitress told me eat first, so l placed my order. After eating l asked again for the password, and again, she told me eat first. Feeling frustrated, l ordered black coffee. After coffee, again l asked for the password. They told me eat first. Then angrily, l walked to the restaurant manager and asked for the password. He replied eat first !!! l was about to explode, when I finally saw a sign on the wall indicating "WiFi password...EAT FIRST". This shows that most of us are waiting for an answer from God after we have prayed, but we don't listen to what He is saying to us. Sometimes, the Lord is showing us an open door, but we keep asking for direction, instead of looking at the door He has opened. May His wisdom guide us, and His power open our spiritual eyes, to see the answers to our prayers. Also, may we learn to listen to Him. Sat Sree Akal.
  10. Just received this message/information, not sure how true it is, but sharing to be just on the safe side, in case it happens with us or any of our relatives or friends. Dear All, Be Careful At the Indian Airports This is a well organized conspiracy by Indian Immigration, Police, Customs and Air India staff with networking at all the Indian International Airports. Be watchful when ever you give your passport to Immigration/ Customs/Air India staff. The passport can be easily tampered and can create trouble to you. They have found easy way of making money from NRIs. This is the way it works: At the time of the passenger's departure, if the passenger is not looking at the officer while he is stamping the exit, the officer very cleverly tears away one of the page from the passport. When the passenger leaves the immigration counter, the case is reported on his computer terminal with full details. Now all over India they have got full details of the passenger with Red Flag flashing on the Passport number entered by the departure immigration officer. They have made their money by doing above. On arrival next time, he is interrogated. Subject to the passenger's period of stay abroad, his income and standing etc., the price to get rid of the problem is settled by the Police and Immigration people. If someone argues, his future is spoiled because there are always some innocent fellows who think the honesty is the basis of getting justice in India. Please advise every passenger to be careful at the airport. Whenever they hand over the passport to the counters of Air India, or immigration or the customs, they must be vigilant, should not remove eyes from the passport even if the officer in front tries to divert their attention. Also, please pass this information to all friends, media men and important politicians. Every month 20-30 cases are happening all over India to rob the NRIs the minute he lands. Similar case has happened with Aramco's Arifuddin. He was travelling with his family. They had six passports. They got the visa of America and decided to go via Hyderabad from Jeddah. They reached Hyderabad. Stayed about a month and left for the States. When they reached the States, the page of the American visa on his wife's passport was missing. At the time of departure from Hyderabad it was there, the whole family had to return to Hyderabad helplessly. On arrival at Bombay back, they were caught by the police and now it is over 2 months, they are running after the Police, Immigration officers and the Courts. On going in to details with him, he found out the following: One cannot imagine, neither can believe, that the Indian Immigration dept can play such a nasty game to harass the innocent passengers. All the passengers travelling to & fro India via Bombay and Hyderabad must be aware of this conspiracy. Every month 15 to 20 cases are taking place, at each mentioned airport, of holding the passengers in the crime of tearing away the passport pages. On interviewing some of them, none of them was aware of what had happened. They don't know why, when and who tore away the page from the middle of the passport. One can imagine the sufferings of such people at the hands of the immigration, police and the court procedures in India after that. The number of cases is increasing in the last 2-3 years. People who are arriving at the immigration, they are questioned and their passports are being held and they have to go in interrogations. Obviously, the conspiracy started about 2 to 3 years ago, now the results are coming. Some of the Air India counter staff too are involved in this conspiracy. KINDLY SEND THIS TO AS MANY AS YOUR FRIENDS ACROSS THE WORLD AND ALSO REQUEST THEM TO CHECK THE PASSPORT AT ALL THE CHECKING COUNTERS, AND BEFORE LEAVING THE AIRPORT.......
  11. Intentions and presentations No matter how good our intentions are, the World Judges only our Presentations while on the other side No matter how good our presentations are, God judges only our Intentions.
  12. The Fact of Melatonin Please make it a point to sleep early... That´s how God has made us sleep at night and work during the day. There is a natural cancer vaccine, which God has placed in each and everyone of us, in the form of a gland in our head called the Pineal gland. It is considered to be the biological clock of the human body and it is also connected to the sight nerve. It is small like the size of a pea. Everyday after sundown this gland starts producing a substance called Melatonin which runs in the bloodstream and protects the body from cancer. This gland works only in the dark so if the eye is exposed to light the gland does not work because it thinks night has not come yet. So if you stay up at night in the light, you are depriving your body from this daily vaccine. Our parents and grandparents who used to sleep early in the night and wake up early in the morning did not suffer from cancer or any of the disease we hear about today. God has placed this daily vaccine in our body to protect us so let's put it to use by sleeping early. The gland starts working from after dark until two hours before sunrise. Melatonin hormone is secreted by the Pineal gland, and as it trickles into the blood-stream, reduces the electrical activity between the brain and heart, reduces the heart rate, brings down anxiety levels, rebuilds the damaged tissues.
  13. I am sorry, I do not exactly understand what you want from me. Please be a bit more specific or clear. Thanks.
  14. Brother Jacfsing2, Thanks for your asking for clarification, anyhow in my opinon, I now see that maybe in my haste and though I had it in mind, I forgot to mention exactly that Sikhee by itself has no enimity towards not only hindus but any other religions. Sikhee stands by its very own strength, the power of our beloved Guru Sahiban, and not by belittleing other dharmas. For Sikhee is a path of love, of devotion, of truth, at a personal one to one level with Wahiguru Akal Purukh. If our face is towards the Sun, there is no darkness, no rivalary, no enemity, in summary no spiritual darkness, only His Light which permeates all beings in equal refulgence, irrespectively to what dharam they may belong. Is it not Wahiguru who has created each and everyone? Or is it Akal Purukh created us and Allah created muslims or Vishnu to hindus? Wahiguru Akal Purukh has Himself created all of them. Do we think anybody can go against His hukum? If others are born in other dharamas, what is their fault? Nobody is asked where, when, or in which dharam you want to be born. For not having choice, we do not even come with a particular name with us, so you see from a higher spiritual perspective how can anyone be blamed for their fate? One can choose to be a criminal or a pious person, or choose to be good than hurtful, for these things we can suggest somebody to stop being bad, but that also works relatively, because even our character is based on our past karam, against which nobody can go, and above all it is His kirpa on us paapee which can make us from a rusted piece of iron, into a diamond. After all who are we to change anybody else, when we ourselves are at full faults. Being born into Sikhee is a real blessing, which is the first step towards our spiritual uplift, but we need to be good human beings, otherwise no spiritual progress is ever possible, for He is an infinite immaculate Ocean of goodnesss, and if we pretend to merge in Him, we have to become spotless, thus arise above our personal differences and limitations, do His akhoot bhakti, only then can we unite ourselves with Him, becoming one with Him. Until then, we are very much entangled in me, mine, yours, theirs. There is a quotation from the Bani which I heard in a katha of Sant Maskeen Singh, where it says: dharam bhoomee ka jisko abhiman, so andhaa moorakh agyaan. So you see, as said in my post above, all conflicts, confrontations, wars, quarrels are work of the blind mind, very much in the deep well of haume, so it is the minds who lacks clarity of the Jot of Wahiguru, who sees variety which is koor, thus personal or colective differences of all types, and from there on, we put more chains of karam on us. And this is not Sikhee what teaches us, so Sikhee does not have any rivalary against any dharam. Sikhee is farther highest than anything and anyone. In the end it is the lack of clarity in peoples mind, which fills them with the poison of the 5 deadly chor, of which nobody can escape,unless one attaches oneself at His Lotus Feet, then one sees nothing but only His bhanaa at all levels, such is His apaar mahima. Brother Jacfsing2, I hope I have somehow answered your queries, if not, please do not hesitate to pour out your valuable insight on this matter. Sat Sree Akal.
  15. Guest saddened Hindu Jee, Sikhee is above all jaat, paat, genders or any race superiority. You see, all religious conflicts are created by the mind, and the poor fools, turn out into fanatics or fundamentalists, be them of any country or dharam; and it is very sad to say, that hardly any community is not infected with this disease of discrimination. Whether hindus, muslims, christians, or sikhs in name, those who create and enter into conflicts, racism, discriminations, is mainly because none of them have gone deeper into what their religions teach them to do, which is forget about everything and everybody else around you and get focused on the divinity within you through devotion; and this, it is evident that nobody does. In our Aartee, we listen some golden words of our Guru Sahiban : Sabh meh Jot, Jot hae soeee. This means, His Light permeates all beings. Now these words of Guru Jee, reveal the mental state of a highly evolved avastha being who has merged His consciousness in Him, thus, that being sees Him alone in everyone and every place. Our Guru Sahiban, only speak the Truth, about which they themselves have experienced within, and share with all the humanity without any limitations. The rest of us all mortals, we just keep ourselves limited within the four walls of haume, agyanta, koor and krodh, thus our spiritual blindness. No spirituality is gained by mere intelectualism, rather by putting into action the teachings of love and devotion to Him alone, in our case as Sikhs. I would advise you, to leave anybody who promotes hatred and discrimination, do not mind them, no matter if you stand alone in the whole world, because after all, each and everyone has to account for his/her karam, and there no friendship, no chat group, no leaders, no specific community, nor zaat paat is taken into consideration, but only one´s bhakti and love for the Supreme Truth, Wahiguru Akal Purukh. God bless you. Sat Sree Akal.
  16. Top 10 Health Benefits of Chia Seeds Chia seeds have been a staple in Mayan and Aztec diets for centuries. Today, they draw the interest of many people for their health benefits and uses in cooking. It turns out chia seeds are a rich source of nutrients and antioxidants. Omega-3 Fatty Acids Chia seeds are rich in polyunsaturated fats, especially omega-3 fatty acids. Chia seeds' lipid profile is composed of 60 percent omega-3s, making them one of the richest plant-based sources of these fatty acids -- specifically, of alpha-linolenic acid, or ALA. The omega-3s in chia seeds can help reduce inflammation, enhance cognitive performance and reduce high cholesterol. Fiber Fiber is associated with reducing inflammation, lowering cholesterol and regulating bowel function. Chia seeds are an excellent source of fiber, with a whopping 10 grams in only 2 tablespoons. That is one-third of the daily recommended intake of fiber per day. Antioxidants Chia seeds are rich in antioxidants that help protect the body from free radicals, aging and cancer. The high antioxidant profile also helps them have a long shelf life. They last almost two years without refrigeration. Minerals Two tablespoons of chia seeds contain 18 percent of the DRI for calcium, 35 percent for phosphorus, 24 percent for magnesium and about 50 percent for manganese. These nutrients help you prevent hypertension and maintain a healthy weight, and are important for energy metabolism and a part of DNA synthesis. Satiety Satiety is the feeling of being full and satisfied, which helps lower food cravings between meals. The combination of protein, fiber and the gelling action of chia seeds when mixed with liquids all contribute to their satiating effects. Gluten-Free Chia seeds contain no gluten or grains. Therefore, all of the nutritional benefits of chia seeds can be obtained on a gluten-free diet. Egg Replacer The outer layer of chia seeds swells when mixed with liquids to form a gel. This can used in place of eggs to lower cholesterol and increase the nutrient content of foods and baked goods. To make the egg replacement, mix 1 tablespoon of chia seeds with 3 tablespoons of water and let sit for 15 minutes. Can Be Digested Whole Unlike flaxseeds, which are also high in omega-3 fatty acids, fiber and minerals, chia seeds do not need to be ground in order to obtain their nutrient or egg- replacement benefits. Dyslipidemia A study published in the "British Journal of Nutrition" showed that chia seeds as a dietary fat source can lower triglycerides and cholesterol levels while increasing HDL or "good" cholesterol. The study also found that when substituting chia seeds for other fat sources, such as corn oil, the ALA was able to prevent high triglyceride levels and reduce central obesity. Blood Sugar Regulation Chia seeds can play an important role in regulating insulin levels. They can reduce insulin resistance and decrease abnormally high levels of insulin in For example, one ounce (28 grams) of chia seeds contain about: (1) 137 calories 12.3 grams carbohydrates 4.4 grams protein 8.6 grams fat 10.6 grams fiber 0.6 milligram manganese (30 percent DV) 265 milligrams phosphorus (27 percent DV) 177 milligrams calcium (18 percent DV) 1 milligram zinc (7 percent DV) 0.1 milligram copper (3 percent DV) 44.8 milligrams potassium (1 percent DV) Chia seeds also contain essential fatty acids alpha-linolenic and linoleic acid; mucin; strontium’ vitamins A, B, E and D; and minerals, including sulphur, iron, iodine, magnesium, manganese, niacin and thiamine; and they’re a rich source of antioxidants.
  17. The power of forgiveness Forgiving others is not for their sake, it is for our own sake, for our mental health. Know that, you have the power to do it and just do it. Open your mind to the vastness of this universe. Wake up and see that seven billion people are on this planet, everyday many are being hurt, everyday many are dying. Whatever big thing you are hanging on to about someone’s action towards you, know that it is your karma that made them act that way with you. If not that person, some other person would have given you the same experience. This is what you need to realize, this is what you need to see. When you get a nasty email, you don’t throw your computer or laptop because you’ve got a nasty email. Whatever email came, the laptop just reflects that. Similarly, people are like laptops. You don’t need to forgive them, you simply need to have a better understanding. If you ask them, sometimes, they also may not know why they behaved that way, why they did acts that hurt you. Look at life from a bigger perspective, behind every event there is knowledge, behind every person there is love, behind every object there is infinity, just know this, watch this, get this, that’s it.
  18. Attitude for Happiness "We swallow the bitter medicines quickly and keep sweet candies in our mouth for a longer time. But in life, we forget the good times quickly and keep bitter memories in our heart for ever. Think, forgive, forget, and move on in life.
  19. Life´s journey Enjoy the ride. There is no return ticket. George Carlin on aging! (Absolutely Brilliant) IF YOU DON'T READ THIS TO THE VERY END, YOU HAVE LOST A DAY IN YOUR LIFE. George Carlin's Views on Aging HOW TO STAY YOUNG 1. Throw out nonessential numbers. This includes age, weight and height. Let the doctors worry about them. That is why you pay them. 2. Keep only cheerful friends. The grouches pull you down. 3. Keep learning. Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening, whatever, even ham radio. Never let the brain idle. 'An idle mind is the devil's workshop.' And the devil’s family name is Alzheimer's. 4. Enjoy the simple things. 5. Laugh often, long and loud. Laugh until you gasp for breath. 6. The tears happen. Endure, grieve, and move on. The only person, who is with us our entire life, is ourselves Be ALIVE while you are alive. 7. Surround yourself with what you love , whether it's family, pets, keepsakes, music, plants, hobbies, whatever. Your home is your refuge. 8. Cherish your health: If it is good, preserve it. If it is unstable, improve it. If it is beyond what you can improve, get help. 9. Don't take guilt trips. Take a trip to the mall, even to the next county; to a foreign country, but NOT to where the guilt is. 10. Tell the people you love, that you love them, at every opportunity. AND, ALWAYS REMEMBER: "Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away" Please do share this with someone. We all need to live life to its fullest each day!! "Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally used up and worn out, shouting '...man, what a ride!'⁠⁠⁠⁠
  20. A teacher asked her students to use the word "beans" in a sentence. "My father grows beans," said one girl. "My mother cooks beans," said a boy. A third student spoke up, "We are all human beans."
  21. BE LIKE A TREE Stay grounded. Connect with your roots Turn over a new leaf Bend before you break Enjoy your unique natural beauty Keep growing. Mom's Sari Pallu Most of our kids and youngsters as well don't know what a pallu is, as mothers now rarely wear saree. The principle use of Ma's pallu was to provide the elegance to her drape. But along with that, it also served as a potholder for removing hot pans from the stove. It was wonderful for drying children's tears, and on occasion was even used and as a hand towel. For sleeping kids her lap was the mattress and her pallu the warm cover. When company came, those pallus were ideal hiding places for shy kids... And when going out as little kids, the pallu became an anchor, a guide to follow the Mom in the big bad world And when the weather was cold, Maa wrapped it around her arms. Those glorious sari pallus wiped many a perspiring brow, bent over the hot wood stove. From the garden, it carried all sorts of vegetables. After the peas had been shelled, it carried out the hulls. It will be a long time before someone invents something that will replace that 'old-time sari pallu' that served so many purposes. The pallu is nothing but magic woven. And know what this pallu carried..... don't think that If anyone ever caught anything from MOMS pallu - was nothing but love.
  22. THERE IS NO ENEMY OUTSIDE OUR SOUL THE REAL ENEMIES LIVE INSIDE US: ANGER, EGO, GREED AND HATE. ONE OF THE HARDEST LESSONS IN LIFE IS LETTING GO WHETHER IT IS GUILT, LOVE, LOSS OR BETRAYAL. CHANGE IS NEVER EASY WE FIGHT TO HOLD WE FIGHT TO LET GO HAPPINESS CAN NOT BE TRAVELED TO OWNED, EARNED, WORN OR CONSUMED HAPPINESS IS THE SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCE OF LIVING EVERY MINUTE WITH LOVE, GRACE, AND GRATITUDE.
