Life is a Strategy

Life has its own way, its own strategy. Sometimes I wonder how it takes some turn I never tried or not even thought of. What I am today many sides of it I never imagined that will happen in my life.

Now I truly believe that one has the right to dream--think--plan his life but what will happen actually is in not in his hand.

So do not think of future and do your works today in total honesty and commitment  Future will come as it should be..planned and blessed by His will. He has His own strategy and He has planned something for you!
Do not long for anything...even for success...He knows what is best for you...and that only will happen to you.
But you should not stop your works...that is your duty...

"Karmanyebadhikaraste ma falesu kadachana" Lord Krishna told in Gita, yes that is the ultimate truth, I have experienced this in my life also. Perhaps you also may have noticed it.

Life is Tears

Life is tears for many and most of the time.

It is seen or not we weep many times. People weep when they loss near and dear ones. Some weep for money, some for establishment, and some weep for better opportunity. Some weep for failure in love. Some weep for failure in job or business. Some weep as they do not get a job, some weep as they can not bear pressure of the job. Some weep as they are cheated and some weep as they have cheated .Tears roll on cheek of any one, it does not discriminate poor and rich, adult or child, man or woman, illiterate or educated...it is same for all.

Yes I also do weep a lot and give tears a good chance to wash my eyes and face!

Scientists say weeping is good for eyes it washes eyes naturally.

Tear washes not only eyes but also the aggrieved mind and heart; it washes the heaviness of heart and you can smile again.

As it is seen most of the people roll tears for self, it is a self-pity also. It helps to clean mind, but too much of it too often it may make one weak also.

Great are those who weep for others pain. Only great ones may empathize others sorrow and roll tears for them..Swami Vivekananda was used to be in tears seeing the sufferings of poor and discriminated people. His tears inspired him to work with downtrodden people and establish a equal society.

Only rarest of rare people weep in LOVE of GOD the Super Consciousness. They can feel the sweetest of Love of Supreme this melts the heart and tears come rolling down. This is a feeling can not be transcribed in words. It is sweetest of sweet, it is holy. Sri Chaintanya Deva used to weep in Love of Lord Sri Krishna, holy tears rolled down his eyes as he sang name of Sri Krishna.

Life is a Self-Examination.

For me life is greatly a self-examination. I like to examine myself a lot; everyday almost all the moments I review my actions and thoughts. And try to change myself for better. I fail and try again. Yes sometimes I become much tired and need some rest. But again I recover and start my work. 

I want to be more soft, nice and understanding, kindhearted, loving, affectionate, equal to all, I want to be a better human being. So continuously I evaluate myself and try new ways for my betterment. 

I also suggest some people to evaluate themselves and improve, often they take it as a criticism.

But for me this is not a criticism but a loving touch to self. 

This is not to show others, not to compete; this is a tribute to my Creator, the all pervading Super consciousness, I want to be with Him at His feet just like a flower. Only pure beautiful fragrant flowers and Tulsi can reach to His feet, I wish I may be a better human so that I can rest at His feet. 

This is not the end neither a lazy inaction, but here is the beginning.

Life is Dedication.

I thought in 2010 to start a  network of good people, I thought the ways to stop corruption, and I marked with astonishment there many people who think in like way. Anna Hazare, Arvirn Kejriwal and many started fights against corruption. Even Baba Ramdev started a move. The whole 2011 and 2012 till now is totally focused on unfolding of Corruption and Anti-Corruption movement. Millions of people joined the movement. All want to change the corrupt system and bring justice. Now this is taken shape of a political word-war also. Political parties accusing each other; more corrupt the party more sharp they are in attacking other and blaming others. No result came actually till now, still a Churning is started that is the good news.
I am thinking in a different way.Side-by-side Change the people. Certainly Good people will create good system. Power-hungry, greedy people cause turmoil even in a good system. So why not initiate something to change people.

A movement to create Good people, good citizen.

I am developing some modules to integrate Value Education and Spirituality at Work Place and also for Students.I think dedication to Human value only can change people and develop good system even in today's world.  

Life is Committment

We are here because there is a commitment  My parents were committed to grow us, educate us. Teachers were committed to educate us. Friend were helpful and affectionate. Every thing is a commitment. If Commitment is absent, then there is havoc and injustice.

Now-a-days Politicians and officials are so corrupt, because they do not have commitment  Our Leaders like Gandhiji, Netaji Subhas Bose had Commitment towards country and people, so only they could free India from clutches of England. But now leaders do not have commitment towards Country and people, so there is corruption.

Who will train people on Commitment?

Professional at all level have become corrupt. from a AWW to Secretary, From MLA to Ministers  from petty traders to Big companies!

At home also there are social corruptions like Female fetecide, Dowry demand, Torture even killing of bride for dowry is going on.

I found that, in India, most of the parents press children for higher 'marks' and 'grade'! I feel so pain when I see even small children of 6-7 years also sitting in dark rooms during evening with tutors for coaching or running to coaching class!. They are deprived from playground  they work hard to satisfy ambitions of parents. Is it not a corrupt greedy practice, that is crumbling childhood with competition?

I am really sorry that people are losing commitment.

Still I believe, there must be many people who are committed and Honest, but they are not focused as they should be. They lose ground and stay back in this corrupt world.

I used to read in 'Sambad' Oriya daily a column titled as "Bhalo Khabar" (Good news), it was an initiative to bring out news about committed people.

In this new year 2011, I have decided to start a Network of Committed and Honest people and work together for cause of bringing in Commitment back in society.

This is a hard task, but possible.

Life is Transforming process

Whenever I face some incident which is not favourable for me, i.e. an unfavourable comment, an unfair neighbour, any unjust behaviour from any one, I feel very agitated and sad. It disturbes me internally and I often lose my coolness of mind. I start to argue within self to undrstand why it happens, why some one is such opposing me, what is my fault, ect. I often lose my sleep. I can not bear that some one misunderstand me or take me wrongly or misinterpret my words or actions, but I do not like to explain myself. I think let her/him understand me and be back. It is a struggle for me to be in myself and relate with that person normally. I suffer and suffer, unless I Transform the shock to smile.
It is said that Leader must have a strong shock-absorber! it is true. I am working in a leading position and in my Life I am, but my shock-absorber is not so good, it oten breaks. I think this is a default-setting!
I will be happy to listen and learn from you if you have a better shock-absorber!

Life is Friendship

One can feel the complete beauty of Life in befriending with others; I feel friends need ont be human being only. I have so many friends even if I am known as introvert, shy ...etc... and most of my friends are birds and Trees. Prasanta calls me a bird many times. I have three pair of sparrows nestling around our home. They always come, chrip..chrip and chrip...I have kept photos on widow panes and these are great shades for them to make nest. During Feb-March they make nest in back side the framed big photos. I watch them happily--they come and fly around home and our Res-office. They do not fear me, comes so near me on widow grills, when I sit near widows to read news papper. I have marked they have langusge. They chrip differently in different times. One pair has made nest in bathroom upon flash tank also. Every morning they sit and see their reflections on mirror and try to reach it with becks and make lot of hues. It is a good luck for me to open eyes in morning with the chripping of these friends. Recently one pair of sparrow has started to make nest in our office room, just between on the widow pane and the rod of the screens; very delicate place...I fear it may fall. But how to remove it now? I have made a video of this birds in work! Watch this--- have fun and joy!
