  Courage

Courage, hope and cheer, let these three occupy you in your journey;

Courage that is born of inner conviction that knows no fear;

Courage that is born of knowledge is heir to the Divine power.

Fearlessness comes through the practice of unselfishness.

When selfish side of our life dies away the nobler, bigger, braver, God-side will manifest itself.

–   Swami Vivekananda.

IMAGE

Many people are in search of   FORMULA for creating a good image.

A good public image is not made up of a single act of great merit.

It is the sum total effect created by the individual’s thought,  action, habits, attitudes and personal philosophies.

 

A Smile costs nothing, but gives much.  It enriches those who give it.  It takes but a moment, but the memory of it sometimes lasts forever.  None is so rich or mighty that he can get along without it, and none is so poor but that he cannot be made richer by it.

A Smile creates happiness in the home, promotes good will in business and is the cornerstone of friendship.  It can perk up the weary, bring cheer to the discouraged, sunshine to the sad, and is nature’s best antidote for trouble.

Yet it cannot be brought, begged, borrowed or stolen, for it is something that is of no value to anyone until it is given away.

When people are too tired to give you a smile, give them one of yours.

No one needs a smile so much as he who has none to give.

 

EASY AND DIFFICULT

 

Easy is to get a place in someone’s address book or phone;

Difficult is to get a place in someone’s heart.

East is to judge the mistakes of others;

Difficult is to recognize our own mistakes.

East is to talk without thinking;

Difficult is to refrain the tongue.

East is to hurt some one who likes us;

Difficult is to heal the wound.

East is to keep friendship with words;

Difficult is to keep it with meanings.

East or Difficult Learn to Manage.

—- Thiruvalluvar.

THE POWER OF PRAYER

 

 

GOD HIMSELF …………………………………

Get up early in the morning and repeat some prayers. Pray in any manner as you like.  Be as simple as a child.  Open the chambers of your heart.  You will get everything.  Discard all types of bad thoughts.  Pray fervently now, start from this very moment.

Prayer can do miracles.  Pray from the bottom of your heart.  Cultivate a meek receptive attitude of mind.  Prayer with such an attitude of mind is, at once heard and responded to by GOD.  You must have a strong conviction in the omnipresence and omnipotence of God.

Prayer is the effort of man to commune with the Lord.  Prayer is a mighty spiritual force.  Prayer frees the devotee from any form of fear.  Prayer keeps the mind in tune with God.   He who prays regularly, has already started the spiritual journey towards the everlasting peace.

 

 

 

Success

The whole secret of real peace, true happiness and real success is faith in Self-confidence or GOD.

When we will come to have faith in the grace of God and begin to act in conformity with the Divine Will, all the Divine forces will start helping us and success will kneel-down before us and court us.

When faith in God develops in us, we will feel that God is shouldering the entire responsibility of our well-being, immediate as well as future, that He is guarding us against every chance of a fall.  Then a natural sense of fearlessness and carefreeness will dawn on us.

The Way of Wise:

Forget the past, for  it is gone from our domain.   Forget the future for it is beyond our reach. Control the present. Live supremely well now. It will whitewash the dark past, and compel the future to be bright.

This is the way of wise.
