Perennial Principles of Life .....

Hello dreamers ...

God has always been kind to me.
With the latest addition to my family by way of arrival of my grand daughter 20 months back, there was a need to move to a bigger dream home which I wrote in my dream book.


And it all happened very fast. It took just 7 months to take physical shape and here I am sitting in my chair in my new home and feeling blessed to write this blog.


I firmly believe dreams are for real once we know the art of writing and converting them into reality which I shared  in one of my earlier blogs.
Let us remember God always says yes to whatever we say.


I also talked about purpose of life which is difficult to find out because it is something which is way beyond dreams. It's quite normal but I have found out mine.
My grand daughter is the purpose of my life which I could find out some time back.


God has blessed me with a lovely family.
My children are well placed in their lives and they are well equipped to take care of themselves.


And of course my most important dream before he calls me is to leave my legacy and ensure that my wife is well taken care of by herself without depending upon anyone when I am not there.


She is the most important person in my life who always stood by me, encouraged and helped me in changing as a human being. To me she is the perfect life companion, a friend, a mother and the most beautiful woman in true sense on this planet earth.


The bond gets stronger, I realize, as we start catching up with our age. We pass through a phase when we care more for each other than ourselves which is the beauty of the relationship of a wife and husband.


God is kind to me.


Today I would like to share about Perennial Principles of Life.


Lord Mahavira : The Prince of Peace gave us the most important lesson of non-violence in thought, word or deed. " In war one may defeat a million invincible enemies, but to conquer one's own self is the greatest victory. One who conquers the self conquers everything."


Guru Jambeshwar : Preached the worship pf God as one. And over 51 years traveled across the country imparting 29 commandments which gave his followers the name Bishnoi. The greatest legacy of Guru ji is reverence for Nature. In doing so, he reiterated India's ancient civilizational credo. His followers, also enjoined to have compassion for all living beings, give up all toxicants, swear by the tenets of ahimsa ( non violence) and satya (truth), and adhere to a vegetarian diet.


Lord Dattatreya : The path of Dattatreya embraces all spiritual paths and is the source of all other traditions. He who treads the path of Truth, regardless of what religion he belongs to, is treading the path of Dattatreya. As an incarnation of god, Datta came down to spread the universality of true religion. anyone can be his follower, regardless of cast, creed, status. No matter what sect or religion the true seeker follows, eventually he comes under the guidance of Lord Dattatreya, the Eternal Spiritual Guide of all mankind.


Lord Buddha : The law of cause and effect is known as Karma. Nothing ever happens to us unless we deserve it. We receive exactly what we earn, whether it is good or bad. We are the way we are now, due to things we have done in the past. Our thoughts and actions determine the kind of life we an have. Every moment we create new karma by what we say ,do, and think, If we understand this, we do not need to fear karma. It becomes our friend. It teaches us to create a bright future.


Guru Nanak : The great Bhakti saint and founder of Sikhism's teachings distilled into our everyday life would be simple, but profoundly impactful :
Sharing with others, helping those who are in need.
Earning/making a living honestly, without exploitation or fraud.
Meditating on God's name to control your senses.
These, and the unwavering belief in a single, omniscient Godhead are the talisman to live by in this world.


Excited to be alive today


Gratitude

Life is to enjoy ....

Good morning


The happiest people do not necessarily have the best things.
They simply appreciate the things they have.
There are certain niggles in our life that we need to understand, accept and  continue to face for the rest of our life.  It is just not possible to escape from it.
Once we realize that, anyhow, we have to face it for the rest of our life, we should not complain about it. It should not bother us all our life. And in order to be peaceful in life, we need to transform ourselves to accept these things and learn to deal with it and move on.
In all the major cities of the world, traffic will be normally heavy during peak hours though there are floating office timings at many places. People like us, the daily office goers and other commuters cannot escape from it as long as we continue to live in a city. So complaining about it for the rest of our life will not be of any help; it will only make us miserable.
 This is something we have decided to suffer as long as we commute in a city. We can choose to get along or move away from the city or choose not to commute. Complaining all the time about traffic congestion, waiting at the signals, cursing authorities, cursing ourselves will rob us of not only our mental peace but adversely affecting us on other fronts as well.
Take the case of students. All parents want their children to be at the top but we must not forget that there can be only one at the top. It is better to accept the children as they are; guide, support and encourage them to do their best at studies rather than comparing them with others.< A similar situation can very easily be seen in professional life where the competition is cut throat. The need of the hour is to accept what we are and keep on learning from our experiences for continual improvement.
So let's accept that God has sent all of us with unique individual personality into this world under his master plan
If a life insurance agent  hesitates to use the word "death', then he or she can never be successful in the professional life. We cannot be a salesman if we are afraid of rejections because it is an integral part of a salesman's life. Similarly, competition is part of any business. One cannot continue in business and be disturbed by competition whether it is healthy or unhealthy.
Every profession comes with certain niggles. It is an integrated package.We cannot allow it to disturb us on a daily basis. There is no denying the fact that competition exists. What we need to do is to understand it and apply our mind to decide what can be done. We need to deal with the niggles and not get get tensed about it.

If we have chosen to be a businessman, we need to play it like a game; play to win by using smart strategies.
We truly get liberated  when we realize that a little less with peace of mind is far greater than a little more with no peace of mind. Once we realize this, we will not get tensed at work and there will be no question of taking tension home from work.
Forget past
Learn from the experiences of the past
Enjoy the present
God is always with us
