4 points to life

[Guest guest]

Dear Shiva,

 

This past weekend I attended a small puja for Sri Ganesh's birthday

at some friends house. The swami who performed the puja had a great

message that I wanted to share. He said there are 4 points to

living life; dharma, art, calm, and moksha.

 

1. Dharma - You must perform your duties. Take care of your

responsibilities.

 

2. Art - Life is not worth living without art. You get closest

to the creator by creating.

 

3. Calm - One can't enjoy life without calm. Sadhana brings calm.

 

 

4. Moksha - The first 3 points will lead to the forth and allow us

to move beyond birth and death.

 

He said arrange your life to accomplish the first 3 points and the

forth is a natural byproduct. It happens on its own.

Namaste ALL esp Ram,

Do three points to get the fourth. How wonderful. It was especially

joyful to read, "You get closest to the creator by creating." That

was lovely and something beautiful to live by. It was so very kind

of you to share these four points.

Dhanyavaada,

Karen
