Guest guest Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 Sage's advice ----------------- This is mine, that is yours, we say We get stuck more and more, day by day Where do they all go in earth as we lay? To look at it from a far, it is all cosmic play Neither you bring a thing, nor take one Gathering all into a bag, no one can run Carrying that heavy baggage, travel is not fun Knowing the truth, possessions wise people shun Keep life simple with just the things you need Concentrate always on doing a good deed From all the earthly bonds you should be freed For that, advice of the wise, one must always heed It may be hard, the sages' advice to follow The ego and pride, with out fail, one must swallow The path certainly is difficult to the ground hallow Ocean of life - its waters are not shallow Gold, silver, ornaments - fine to have in safe With them alone, one can not have a good life Patience and other virtues, when life is full of strife Keeps one apart and above all, with wisdom ripe No need for them to blow their own pipe Nor do they care for advertisement and hype Endowed with equal vision, they have no gripe Never in wrath, from earth, any thing they wipe With love and compassion for all, in their heart Day in, day out, happy, their work they start Fruits of deeds, they don't accumulate in cart For them living becomes a glorified form of art They lead their life with out a worry They cross the ocean in a divine ferry Hearts full of joy and being merry From no one ever, single favor they curry Always they put their trust in God Not afraid even for a lightening rod Thinking of the one in heavenly abode Go forward with courage on rocky road Being of special, noble breed With reverence my words they heed Never consumed by greed They have their own creed Entertaining no hatred Life for them becomes sacred Helping others in need Until their soul is freed Poor they try to feed On earth plant good seed Not having thoughts lewd All the time in calm mood Even when they are booed Never to any one rude Grateful lives they lead 12:00-1:14PM 8/17/09 The words given, as soon as I saw the words " The myth about exercise " on the cover of Time magazine Suprabha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
