Guest guest Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 ABC = Always Be Careful If you constantly cry out, “O God, most loving God’, He responds by saying, “My devotee, My dearest devotee.†God has no thought other than of His devotees. If the devotee always thinks of God, then God too will always be thinking of the devotee. No one can come between the two. You are young and have a long way to go. Society is like a train, and all elders are bound to get down soon, but you have yet to travel a long way. So, keep your ‘compartment’ clean and have a comfortable journey. Keep your goal in mind and be the recipients of divine grace. Chant the Name of Rama wholeheartedly. Install Him in your heart and sanctify your lives. Rama is present in every heart in the form of the Atma. That is why He is known as Atma Rama. Atma is changeless, and that is your true form. Develop the faith that you are Brahma (Aham Brahmasmi). You may exercise control over your food, but you need not set any boundaries on your love. It should be given total freedom. Love one and all. Love transcends the senses. “All are mine. The life principle that exists in me exists in everybody†With this feeling of unity, share your love with everybody. Love alone can confer peace, which everyone aspires for. Remember, that Bhagavad Gita, Bible, Holy Q’ran, Granth Sahib and other holy scriptures are not intended for “Paarayana†– mere recitation. They are meant for Aacharana practice. It is not a sign of Bhakti – devotion, if one memorises all the 700 verses of Gita or gives learned commentaries thereon. It is only a proof of ostentation. Today what the world needs are men of action – Aachara Maanavas, and not men of words in human form – Aakara Manaavas. We should remember that we should live not for the sake of Annam – food, but for the sake of Adarsham – ideal. Ideals are always supreme and everlasting. If one person becomes an ideal, he can influence the lives of many others for the better It is better tolive like a swan for one year to live like the crow for hundred years. What is the inner meaning of the first three letters, A, B, C in the English Language? It menas “Always Be Careful†The same dictum is given by the Upanishad by exhorting a man to “arise, awake and stop not till the Goal is reached†Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
