SCRAPS SENT TO FRIENDS

Whoever sees all beings in the soul and the soul in all beings...
What delusion or sorrow is there for one who sees unity?
It has filled all. It is radiant, incorporeal, invulnerable...
Wise, intelligent, encompassing, self-existent,
It organizes objects throughout eternity. ( Ishopanishad verses 6,7 &8 )
THX . God is not a person ; we have personified IT to make our poor understanding follow IT . IT is a power/energy /all-pervading element / super power present in all living -nonliving . IT is within u . IT is outside also . if u pray outside it guide u as u want ; and see within yourself ,IT is there and guides u in each n every action and tells RIGHT / WRONG . IT is not matter of your faith or belief . IT does nothing with u /for u /neither help nor check . IT ONLY LOOKS ON .......what r u doing and result comes to u as yr work / action ( Universal Rule )GOD by prayer or God within u can only motivate /direct /give u insight TO MAKE RIGHT CHOICE OF ACTION . good action > good result AND bad > bad . that's all . end up . ok .GOD is equally distributed in whole CREATION in all time ; all place with supreme wit and wisdom.

"Loud speech, profusion of words, and possessing skillfulness in expounding scriptures are merely for the enjoyment of the learned. They do not lead to liberation." "SELF is the nature of Pure Consciousness ; always the same to beings, one alone; the highest Brahman, which, like the sky, is all-pervading, imperishable, auspicious, uninterrupted, undivided and devoid of action ; does not belong to anything since free from attachment ; ever-shining, unborn, one alone, imperishable, stainless, all-pervading, and nondual-That forever released."The witness of the three states of consciousness [waking, dream and deep sleep] and of the nature of Existence-Consciousness-Bliss is the Self
Each thing tends to move towards its own nature. I always desire happiness which is my true nature. My nature is never a burden to me. Happiness is never a burden to me, whilst sorrow is.
There is sorrow infinitude. The Self is beyond time, space and objects. It is infinite and hence of the nature of absolute happiness.

CONVOCATION ADDRESS IN UPNISHAD

ॐ सह नाववतु . सह नौ भुनक्तु . सह वीर्यं करवावहै .
तेजस्वि नावधीतमस्तु मा विद्विषावहै . ॐ शान्तिः शान्तिः शान्तिः .

( English version ) 

Om ! May He protect us both together; may He nourish us both together;
May we work conjointly with great energy,
May our study be vigorous and effective;
May we not mutually dispute (or may we not hate any).
Om ! Let there be Peace in me !
Let there be Peace in my environment !
Let there be Peace in the forces that act on me !

THE BEST OF IMMANUEL KANT

• All our knowledge begins with the senses, proceeds then to the understanding, and ends with reason. There is nothing higher than reason."
• "All thought must, directly or indirectly, by way of certain characters, relate ultimately to intuitions, and therefore, with us, to sensibility, because in no other way can an object be given to us."
  
• "Always recognize that human individuals are ends, and do not use them as means to your end."
  
• "By a lie a man throws away and, as it were, annihilates his dignity as a man."
  
• "Do what is right, though the world may perish."
  
• "Experience without theory is blind, but theory without experience is mere intellectual play."
  
• "He who is cruel to animals becomes hard also in his dealings with men. We can judge the heart of a man by his treatment of animals."
  
• "If man makes himself a worm he must not complain when he is trodden on."
  
• "Immaturity is the incapacity to use one's intelligence without the guidance of another."
  
• "In law a man is guilty when he violates the rights of others. In ethics he is guilty if he only thinks of doing so."
  
• "It is beyond a doubt that all our knowledge that begins with experience."
  
• "May you live your life as if the maxim of your actions were to become universal law."
  
• "Nothing is divine but what is agreeable to reason."
  
• "Science is organized knowledge. Wisdom is organized life."
  
• "Seek not the favor of the multitude; it is seldom got by honest and lawful means. But seek the testimony of few; and number not voices, but weigh them."
  
• "Two things awe me most, the starry sky above me and the moral law within me."
  - Immanuel Kant
  

ACTION AND INACTION .

Action may not always bring happiness,success and achievements but there is none of these without action. it is only good action that is important and action is the result .dream then pass into reality by action that allows you to dream again and then action and thus you go to the TOP .if you can be of any service to the needful . useful to yourself and moral to society ; your actions are fruitful and peace to your mind and Soul . good ACTIONS make the life meaningful , beautiful , loving and WORTH-LIVING , as it is . LIFE is life ; small or big BUT beautiful . we are born once and die for ever. THE ONLY ONCE , makes it most beautiful .'' सुन्दर हैं विहग, सुमन सुन्दर ; मानव तुम सबसे सुन्दरतम '' so try to live to the BEST .
'' किम कर्मम किम अकरमम इति , कवयः अपि अत्र मोहिता ''- गीता में कृष्ण .
Even wise confuse between action and inaction . only those who are detached and have no envy ; free from their sense lures can decide between right and wrong action . these type of people , very rare, are called stable in their minds ( sthitiprjna ) who have realized the Truth about right action. actions according to the circumstances , your ability and resources that goes to the benefit of whole society are recommended . for this you will have to follow the teaching of Krishna and that is to do your duty with all your might , skill and sincerity . every one of us has got one field of action with abilities and to do it is perfection . '' They serve Him best, who bear His mild yoke '' - Milton in ' On His Blindness ' any action should be that includes - morals , benefit of all and truth . PERFECTION IN ACTION IS YOGA = '' योगः कर्मसु कौशलम '' - गीता में श्री कृष्ण . 
'' नीति प्रीति परमारथ स्वारथ . कोऊ न राम सन जान जथारथ - राम चरित मानस में तुलसी दास '' Moral- Laws , love and maintaining of relations , welfare of the people and society and sublimation of the individual-self , all these are best known to Lord Ram . it is said , ' Ram speaks but once , acts the same and proves to be the best . He sublimated Himself to the mark that even God of Gods obeyed Him . all Nature / Creation ; each and everyone made pace with Him .He elated Him so great that is regarded greatest among Gods and men of all time . it was because of His actions . if you want to know of His , these actions , read RAM CHARIT MANAS BY Tulasidas ji .

'' The good will is the only good without qualification. The good will is a will that acts for the sake of duty, as a "good-in-itself." If the purpose of life were just to achieve happiness, then we would all seek pleasure and gratification and hope that it would lead to happiness. The problem is that happiness is not totally within our power to achieve; The class of actions in accordance with duty must be distinguished from the class of actions performed for the sake of duty. Kant believes only actions performed for the sake of duty have moral worth. He seems to suggest that the greater one's disinclination to act for the sake of duty, the greater the moral worth of the action.
If one performs an action by inclination, then that action has no moral worth
Two things fill the mind with ever increasing wonder and awe. The more often and the more intensely the mind of thought is drawn to them: the starry heavens above me and the moral law within me. Morality is not properly the doctrine of how we may make ourselves happy, but how we may make ourselves worthy of happiness." Immanuel kant .

SCRAPS SENT TO FRIENDS .

** Thoughts , words , pictures , books , movies , talks , debates , discussions , friends , people and actions what and how small may be , GOOD OR BAD put on your mid an impression that goes very long way and edit your personality i.e. GOOD OR BAD . we think that , that was very small , ineffective and very minute but the effect of these do not die till we live and come-out whenever these get favourable time ,place and situation in form of body -illness , mental-ill-health and mal-adjustment that devour our personality , our life and history. a simple figure , word or event on paper or street is deleted in course of time but not that imprint in our mind's plate / slate , goes longer and longer and asks for payment not in double but many times we could expect . REGULAR , UNFAILING AWARENESS is the only key to keep you not regret for irreparable loss you might have caused to yourself unknowingly .
Thousand years back The great science of mind( called Psychology )was discovered by great RISHI PATANJALI N FORMULATED THIS SCIENCE AS YOGA- SUTRA . this says - GOOD MIND GOOD FIND . if you want to change the world around you ; you must change yourself ( THE ONLY WAY ) .some are - do not think to harm other and no one can harm you ; do not steal , you will remain rich ; do not envy and be happy ; love others and all will love you . AS YOU THINK SO IT ALL AROUND , BECOMES . be united with all , feel one with many and  that is Yoga . LEAVE NO SPACE between the two thought &; word :: word & action :: you & the   other :: you & the   work and so on and so forth . THE FEELING OF ONENESS IS YOGA . AS YOU THINK , SO IS THE  WORLD / OTHERS / THOUGHTS / PERSONS / THINGS TO YOU.

WHEN I consider how my light is spent
E're half my days, in this dark world and wide,
And that one Talent which is death to hide,
Lodg'd with me useless, though my Soul more bent
To serve therewith my Maker, and present
My true account, least He returning chide,
Does God exact day-labour, light denied
I fondly ask; But patience to prevent
That murmur, soon replies, God does not need
Either man's work or His own gifts, who best
Bear His mild yoke, they serve Him best, His State
Is Kingly. Thousands at His bidding , speed
And post over Land and Ocean without rest:
They also serve who only stand and wait. - Milton (On His Blindness)
