Conquer the mind and - you conquer the world..

[Guest guest]

If there is no wind, row. Make things happen rather than let things happen. One

can give nothing whatsoever without giving oneself, risking oneself. The most

important thing in life is not what you get but what you give.

Once a preacher called at the home of a very poor family. When he came out, he

found one son admiring his new car, so the preacher explained that he had

received it as a gift from his brother. Most lads would say, “I wish I had a

brother like that.”? But this one said, “Mister, I wish I could be a brother

like that.”?

If you are not enjoying this journey, for sure you won’t enjoy the destination.

It will become a moment to dread, not a moment you can actually look forward

to. It’s not what happens that determines our future, but what you do about

what happens that counts. Make the most of life. Earn all that you can, save

all that you can, and give all that you can. Although greed comes from the

desire to obtain something, it is not satisfied by obtaining. The true antidote

of greed is contentment. Take yourself less seriously. Conquer the mind and -

you conquer the world. Looking back strains your neck muscles. Similarly,

living in the past strains your life. Don’t dwell on the past, have faith in

yourself and you will have faith in others. Fulfil your destiny. Remember, no

one can make you unhappy without your consent.

The way you cope with life, is what makes the difference. Even peace of mind is

not the absence of conflict but the ability to cope with it. You have to reach

out to other people. That will teach you to forgive people and also forgive

yourself. Forgiveness means letting go of the past. Compassion is about

stepping outside yourself. A kind compassionate act is often it’s own reward.

Live your life without complaining, just like the tree. We cannot stop

suffering in the world. But we can stop it in our mind, provided you know your

mind, which is the source of negative thoughts. Only you can doctor your mind.

Your happiness is dependent on consistency. When you experience inconsistency

you experience disappointments, resentments and self-pity, guilt and grief.

Learn to be free, learn to be joyous. Learn to let go if someone passes away,

learn to forgive yourself and others. Once you are free, the fear of death will

trouble you no longer. May the

Merciful Sri Sai Baba always shower His grace on us and our families and remove

our problems and anxieties by giving us all - strength , goodluck, success and

happiness with peace of mind.Sai bhakt,Deepa Hdebu7366
