Words of Wisdom

(Click on the picture for bigger view)
Self and others.

You never ask others to do, what you don’t want to do.

You must know whether something is acceptable before you ask others to take it up. If you are not ready to take it up will you ask the others to do it?
***

Right and the wrong

Decide what is right before you worry, about what is possible.

Many things are possible. Do we do them because they are possible or because it is good for us or others to do them? Do the right thing not the thing that looks easy.
***

Give and take.

Never expect to get more than what you give.

World will provide for your needs and not for the greed. What have you done to deserve what you expect? Give something and you will be eligible to ask only a part of it.
***

You and the life

Take 100% responsibility of your life. No complaints and no excuses.

You make the things happen to you. You are responsible for the situation you are in. Those who name others and complain are only forgetting this fact.

Tao te ching by Lao Tsu


Some say that my teaching is nonsense.


నా బోధనల్లో అర్థం లేదంటారు కొందరు

Others call it lofty but impractical.

మరి కొందరు గొప్పగా ఉంది కానీ పనికి రావంటారు.

But to those who have looked inside themselves, this nonsense makes perfect sense.

కానీ, తమలోకి తాము తొంగి చూడగలిగిన వారికి మాత్రం, ఈ అర్థంలేని సంగతుల అర్థాలు తెలుస్తాయి.

And to those who put it into practice, this loftiness has roots that go deep.

ఇక వాటిని ఆచరణలో పెట్టినవారికి, ఈ ఔన్నత్యం వేళ్లు మరింత లోతయినవి.

I have just three things to teach: simplicity, patience, compassion.

These three are your greatest treasures.

నేను చెప్పేవి మూడే పాఠాలు. సింప్లిసిటీ, ఓపిక, ప్రేమ. మూడున్నూ మీకు గొప్ప నిధులువుతాయి.

Simple in actions and in thoughts, you return to the source of being.

పనుల్లోనూ, ఆలోచనల్లోనూ సింప్లిసిటీ ఉంటే మీరు అస్తిత్వపు మూలాలకు చేరుకుంటారు.

Patient with both friends and enemies, you accord with the way things are.

మిత్రులూ, శత్రువులతోనూ ఓపికగా ఉంటే, విషయాలున్న పరిస్థితి మీకు అర్థమవుతుంది.

Compassionate toward yourself, you reconcile all beings in the world.

ఇక మీ మీద మీకే ప్రేమ ఉంటే, ప్రపంచంలోని అన్ని జీవుల మీదా మీకు ప్రేమ ఉంటుంది. సర్దుకు పోగలుగుతారు.

Words of Wisdom

(Click to see the image bigger)

Integrity

Even when money is gone and friends are gone, integrity stays.

People will remember you because of what you are and not what you have. A good man will be remembered because of his integrity. This is not something that comes because of the money you have or the people around you. The inherent character called integrity stays with you for ever.
****
Integrity speaks

Your ideal is what you wish you are,
Your reputation is what people say you are,
Integrity is what you are!

You will like a particular person and would like to live and act like him or her. It is the people who can tell what exactly you are. It is what you say and do irrespective of the fact whether anyone is watching you or not.
****
What is integrity?

The message of a man’s real character is what he would do, if he would never be found out.

You find a coin on the road. There is no one watching you. No one will know what you did with that coin. What will you do with it?
****
The World

The mind is the body’s physician.


The world around us springs out of our imagination. A fearful mind creates a fearful world. A happy and healthy mind in contrast, will create a world filled with peace, joy and love. No adversity can block a happy mind. Everything around it is seen as a teaching tool.

Words of Wisdom

Not that you don't know!
But, because I liked them!

Mere reading such words is of no use.
We must meditate on them, own them if we can.
Only then, the wisdom is of any use.

You may have a library at home.
But, what is it you have in yourself?

Study these few lines!

Present


Each day is a new beginning

We shall see today as new. Nothing from the past is here. It is only we who bring that past into the present day. We do it because we think it defines us. But is it necessary that we keep living the same old life always?

Knowledge

A fool with a tool is still a fool.

You know many things. You never make use of them. You are as good as one who does not know them. Try and make use of the things that you know.

Useful knowledge

What you learn is your teacher’s concern.
What you do with what you learn is your concern.
How useful is your knowledge is society’s concern.
Mere knowledge is nothing but vanity.

Learning has to culminate in some useful exploitation. Knowledge preserved in the brain is waste.

Self awareness

One, who has studied the entire world and not studied the self, has not studied anything.

Worldly wisdom is of no use without knowledge of one’s own strengths and weaknesses. You have to relate yourself with this world. People are different from one another. Unless you know yourself you can not relate to them properly.
