When the mind is filled with virtues, they will be revealed in our actions. Mind creates a thought, and one experiences feelings, resulting in formation of attitudes, which result in actions. Thus a virtuous thought results in virtuous action.

‎** Be Kind, Don’t Rewind **

- We look back and remember…
By rewinding and replaying our memories, 
not only are we reliving the past but we’re also triggering all the associated feelings.
By dwelling on bad memories or mistakes, we’re not only retaining the negativity but causing ourselves unnecessary pain.
And more importantly, we’re missing out on the “right now.”
Life doesn’t have a rewind button! And you can’t delete the past.
Stop letting the past control your life in the present.
Be kind to yourself. Don’t rewind.
But is there a time to: Be Kind, Rewind?
To rewind the happiness, to rewind constructively?
And for all those times when we should not be pressing the rewind button -
how to stop?
Don’t rewind. Unwind, press play and enjoy the “right now”.

The hunger for love is much more difficult to remove than the hunger for bread. There are many in the world who are dying for a piece of bread but there are many more dying for a little love…spread love and start it from your own family

Time cannot heal us. We choose how much time we take to heal ourselves.
Face the emotion and find the tool of knowledge to heal it, do not leave it to time.

A good way to change someone’s attitude is to change your own.
Because, the same sun that melts butter, also hardens clay!
Life is as we think, so think beautifully.

Life is just like a sea, we are moving without an end.
Nothing stays with us,
what remains is just the memories of some people who touched us as Waves.

Whenever you want to know how rich you are?
Never count your currency,
Just try to Drop a Tear and count how many hands reach out to WIPE that-
that is true richness.

Overcoming Possessiveness And Complexes In Close Relationships 

In meditation, I stabilize in the consciousness that I am an eternal soul, and that all human beings are souls, members of a huge spiritual family. Roles will change, but as souls, we only have an unlimited spiritual relation, we are brothers, but have no other permanent physical relation. Becoming aware of this spiritual wisdom protects me against limited feelings of ‘my’ mother, ‘my’ husband, ‘my’ sister and so on, where such feelings cause possessiveness and a desire to control, rather than pure spiritual love filled with equality. All problems are reduced in relationships, when the personality trait inside me that tries to control others, or is controlled by others, is removed. Both of these are negative behaviors, caused due to lack of inner security, not true responsibility or concern. By knowing myself as a soul, my self-respect returns and by seeing others in the same light, my respect for others returns. From this strong soul-conscious spectator point, there is an inner detachment (but not a lack of love) inside me and I’ll no longer feel a need to manipulate others or be manipulated by the other, but instead I will radiate pure feelings of genuine love, care and respect into my relationships. This causes the same energy to come back to me from my relationships.

Carrying Forward Of Special Talents 

Everything that an individual does i.e. a soul does using the medium of the physical body is registered in the soul as a sanskara. Sanskars, therefore, are the foundation of our present personalities and all our special talents and inclinations. There have been many famous personalities including artists, musicians, engineers, sportsmen, etc. who, before attaining phenomenal success in their respective fields, displayed amazing talents related to their respective field at a very young age. When and where could they have mastered these talents so well? It’s obvious that amazing masteries at a very young age are not inherited from our parents. These talents have been developed and brought into practice in previous births, as a result of which sanskaras of the talents are created inside the soul. These sanskaras are then carried into the next births, and are brought into actions in the new births.
