Guest guest Posted April 2, 2010 Report Share Posted April 2, 2010 Dear ones,another copy and paste which is worth more than 2cents4sure.......//Many years back, Ramakrishna asked Vivekananda what he would do if some ignorant people were harassing him. With his youthful exuberance, Swamiji (then just a young Narendra) said, "I will ignore them thinking that dogs bark at an elephant when the elephant walks". Ramakrishna told him that was not the right attitude. Ignoring is right, but there is no need to think in those terms!!! Fight impassionately when your judgment is that the fight is worth it. Ignore impassionately when your judgment is that the fight is not worth it. But, expressing emotions like ridicule and anger only wastes one's spiritual energy. We need to keep control over the mind and conserve spiritual energy.. My 2 cents.. Thanks, Narasimha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Jo sab karte hain Yog ki baatein hamesha nahin hote hain Yogi, aur joh dikhthe hain Bhog karte hue, sab samay nahin hote hain Bhogi....." Please forgive me, am really at loss to translate this in English and retain the original essence or flavour...
