Guest guest Posted October 1, 2007 Report Share Posted October 1, 2007 "The Gita is the Universal Mother. She turns away nobody. Her door is wide open to any one who knocks. I find a solace in the Gita that I miss even in the Sermon on the Mount. When disappointment stares me and I see not one ray of light. I go back to the Gita, I find verse here and there & I immediately begin to smile in the midst of overwhelming tragedies- & have left no visible or indelible scar on me- I owe it all to the teachings of the Shrimad Bhagawad Gita.". PERALS OF WISDOM! TRUTH " Search for truth is search for God. Truth is God. God is because Truth is. God alone is truth and everything else is transitory and illusory. Though God may be Love, God is Truth above all.Truth is what the voice within tells you.Truth alone will endure, all the rest will sweep away before the tide of time. Truth should be so humble that even the dust could crush him. Truth without humility would be an arrogant caricature. If you would swim on the bosom of the ocean of Truth , you must reduce yourself to a zero.The quest of Truth involves tapas—self-suffering—sometimes even unto death.Truth is the first to be sought for, and Beauty and Goodness will then be added unto you. Truth is like a vast tree which yields more and more fruit the more you nurture it. " On Nonviolence( Ahimsa) " Ahimsa is the highest ideal. It is meant for the brave, never for the cowardly. Ahimsa is the eradication of the desire to injure or to kill. Ahimsa is not a matter of mere dietetics: it transcends it. Ahimsa is the highest duty. Even if we cannot practice it in full, we must try to understand its spirit and refrain as far as is humanly possible from violence.Ahimsa means infinite love, which again means infinite capacity for suffering. Mahatma Gandhiji This country or the world is fortunate and lucky to have a man of simple thinking with enlarged vision for the welfare of the humanity. But in the process of being materialistic, we have lost the Golden Teachings and forbearance of Mahatma Gandhi. We only, sorry, a few of us, endeavour to remember him only on the 2 nd Oct, to show to the world that we had such a great human and remain in a silence for a second in his honour at his monument at New Delhi. What a mockery of Civilization. Today, even some of us have guts to quote that there was no Rama, it was a myth. We are shameless creatures of the 21st century, unfit to call ourselves as Hindus. We are worst than animals. Time is not far off, when a few of us will even claim or question the womb of our own Mother, who nurtured and nursed us for nine months & gave us a birth! Oh! Baba! Let me not be alive to witness or hear such nonsense! Jai Bharat. Jai Mata. Long Live our Heritage and Culture. nimano fakir-Dubai-2ND Oct:07 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
