• Repression of body and mind is useless

• Repression must be without internal

craving – in one word ‘Desirelessness’

• It must be without any regrets

• Ultimately repression must yield to

sublimation

Renunciation

Who Carves Our Destiny ?

Blame not, any one for your fall !

You are the cause of your success or failure !!

No one lifts you up, except your own SELF !!!

Don’t fall pray to vice and floor your SELF.

You are your best friend and worst enemy too !

If fallen, ricochet with equal vigour - like a ball

Who is the Real Ascetic ?

¢ Who works ever without an eye on the fruit,

¢ Who performs ever all ordained duty,

¢ Though he is in the thick and thin of life,

He is the real sanyasin and true yogi –

Not the recluse of Self-denial, away in forests.

® If we work ever without any second thought

® If we regard our duty as upper most

® If we are composed and never distracted

Already Taken Care Of

Such a single-pointed, unwavering and

concentrated effort, sure, ensures us to

attain and retain the fruits of actions.

Who is the Real Learned ?

The Ocean has no difference in feeling

for its different waves – similarly an

Ego-less man will cast an equal eye on

A scholar with humility

An outcast and immoral man

All animals alike

Certainly the number of titles that decorate

the end of our name is no yard stick

The Caveat

What ever the noble and great men do,

the common man takes it as an example

So, men of character have the onus on them to

1. Reflect human dignity in all actions

2. Create high bench-marks of virtue

3. Be the Gold-Standard for others to follow

Forsake the Treble

Kaama or intense desire

Krodha or rage and wrath

Lobha or clinging & craving

Ravana asura is best negative example

These are the three gate-ways for

Downfall ! So desist from doom !!

Perfect Devotion leads one to where ?

Unflinching Faith and unswerving devotion

The substantial hardware required is Bhakti

Identifying ourselves totally with the duty

and intense love for the Self within is Bhakti

Then, one actually knows who he is !

Perceives intimately what he is !!

Will be able to enter / experience his SELF !!!

What the intellect accepts, the heart doesn’t appreciate

What the heart craves for, the intellect laughs at !

Make the Head & Heart Congruent

a. Fix the mind on any form divine/ formless

b. Intellect must pierce through the stony idol

and contact the pulsating truth it represents

c. Don’t be agitated and shy at the gateway of

the Temple-of-Truth – enter it, doubtlessly

How to be the most successful ?

Totally absorb in perfectly doing any task

Do it with utmost love and enjoy doing

Work like a bull to achieve the task

Give high priority and complete it

Is this not the profound secret ? Let us try and

script our own success story, how small it may be.

How to grow

towards fulfillment in life ?

Be most dedicated to the task

Be a task master and chase the Goal

Work with utmost love and devotion

Keep free from all other attachments

With a sense of enmity towards none

Successful men don’t do different things;

they just do the things differently !
