ME WITHIN THEE /SELF CONFIDENCE

Man is maker of his own fate . you need to believe in God but need more to believe in yourself . Omar Khaiyam is absolutely right and i quote , '' God is within you '' Vedanta says , '' TATWAMASI'' you are that God .Tulasi ji writes , '' you are the part of that whole , the power of God on Earth . those great men who shaped the history of the world had faith in themselves . God is there but you are here and to act and enjoy the fruits . the Divine Power is within yourself and has a particular mission to be fulfilled through you . you can do any thing . most of the great men whom i know in the world did not know their own fates when they were young and common . their actions made them great . i do not want ti give examples , you can see many . you fail , only when you do not bring out your best that you have within . bring it out to the best , the infinite , the NOT manifest , within you । faith in God and faith in yourself । act , and the best is there out।
things are difficult , more difficult , may most difficult but nothing is impossible for the man , the divine soul . we are divine , although not in full but in part but we rise and rise and get the strength from the infinite source , as much as the need is . you are never refused power and energy , only when you go on action . if you think you are weak , you are weak , say really you are under the KALP VRIKSH the tree that gives you what you desire coupled with action . but the reality is that you are strong and your own thinking makes you weak .
do not expect any help from any one . no one will come to help you if you are weak . if you are strong and need no help every one will come to you to offer help. say , ' no help please . thanks , i can do it . let me try . and see you have done the task . i say all this of my own experiences and of those , i saw in my life .
our Upnishadas tell us , ''SOAHAMASMI '' I AM THAT . '' TATWMASI '' , THAT THOU ART . the what to fear ? He is with you . if you are true , you are strong . i ask my students and friends , '' are you strong ? if the answer is , ''no'' you are not with truth. have the truth and strength comes to you and success follows . strength is life , weakness is death . life is to conquer death and it needs strength and again strength comes from truth .
Death is better than a vegetating ignorant and weak life . it is better to die on battlefield than to live a life of defeat . people say have faith in this and in that but i say have faith in yourself and in your action . let a thousand failures come , go on , success is waiting you . the more you fail , the nearer you become and win .
i conclude with three words , you are Divine , you need believe in yourself , you need action . belief in self is belief in God who made the law of action . good action > good result , bad action >bad result . open your eyes and stretch your hands and see , '' ME WITHIN THEE BLIND .''
