"the knowledge is just in bits, yet, the learning must be for lifetime.that's what is known as tit bits."

"I learnt from stones! The stones that are used in laying roads, buildings.to say, in constructions activities. "constructive stones!" And there are those known as gems!! Gem stones are precious, and worthy, and priceless too!! And their worth increases by polishing!!"

The passerby had a different opinion:

"Stones are dangerous, if they are in the wrong hands!! Gem stones are dangerous because of their worth and just because they are precious!! The other stones if not used in construction activities, just lie on the grounds of earth, unasked, but if they reach some violent hands, they can injure and take life!! Those who know the worth of stones, must know why they are worthy!! No one asks about the rocks they were once!! Now they are broken stones, some precious and some just lying on the tombs, unknown, dead!! And you say, you will not like my soul watch me lying under such stone and to enjoy above me the stars that would have shine only at nights!! Why do want gems, can you make any stone a gem? You will ask why?"

I rest in peace.

The reader asked the passerby

"your opinion is not understood!?"

The passerby could only smile and say

"am I worth more then a handful of sand? And you build around me a wall and a ceiling to protect me from heat but away from light, away from air, away from water?? What will remain of me just a few granules of carbon fossils!! That too will be washed away in the waters?"

One can understand the grief of the parents of the children! But then, seems the children surely are great! The parents of the dead children want a probe in to the mysterious death! Who is responsible?

The spiritual speaker, Asaram Bapu who has a great following in Gujarat and India, is now having a bad time! Seems his stars or his Destiny (Vidhi) in correction mode!!

Earlier in tamil nadu, it was Sankaracharya who was in news and was in prison!!

Vidhi / Destiny or Time is the best answer to anything! No one knows what is waiting for anyone in the next second!! No one must think that one is immortal or free from punishments or lessons!!

Judgement and Punishment or corrections take place at the appointed time and appropriate time in the right and correct manner, that's what is Judgement Day!!

Be spiritual or religious or pious, you have to face for what you did! Prayers are the only mode and method to avoid the pains!!

As I used to tell you, the same people who spoke in high regard for Asaram or Sankaracharya, have different opinion now! Why? Because, that's the mentality or psychology of humans! Today they praise or flatter you, say they respect or love you, but, but, but..tomorrow the same humans known as people throw stones at you and speak ill and bad words about you!!

That's why I keep saying, be what you are and don't trust anyone in life!! you never know when the other person would change his opinion or views about you!! after all its human brain and mind, always subject to conditions and changes!!

You must walk straight and in the right manner! If someone comes in your way, either you speed up or let the other person move! Or else you will clash! But if someone knowingly messes up with you, then never leave the other person in peace, whatever it may cost!! So this is a simple funda "you be good, but, if you are dragged and someone messes with you, give him the best sleepless nights and punishment, but, don't get physical!!"

That's what is the "rule of life" and "survival of the fittest"! Don't take anyone for granted!! You are not a mind reader to read what the other person thinks!! You cannot even trust yourself or you for your own decisions or judgements, so always be alert!! You face consequences of and for your own decisions!!

Remember, past life or future life, "is" for those who believe, but, right now, the present is your life! So live the life strong and fight for your Rights!!

A human is the best animal, who thinks, plots, suspects, is shy, or ashamed, punishes, kills, fights.so be a human as the other humans are! Mercy is not for all, forgiveness is not for all, but, for those who seek for!!

If you don't believe in God then believe in some super power, if not, then believe in you!!

P.S.

"Sai baba's idol opens left eye in Bangalore".great news! That's what I read today in TOI!! Do you believe such news?

This is my useless body of flesh and bones! I am ashamed of this birth!!

Her blog titled "Are Indian Men Ugly?"

hmmm...

"the fact that makes anyone ugly is the fact that makes anyone beautiful..."

....and then

"the eyes see the fact to be judgemental deciphering the inbound in lying inside ones own nature to depict the outer seen ugliness..."

...hmmm...

"that which is ugly is the beauty for the one who lives by calling oneself beauty..."

"beauty is a self conscious effort to boost one''s importance in one''s own eyes and a effort to live the life..."

I am not talking of india but a human in general.......

"a mother or father cleans the shit of child...the child grows up and bothers to see his/her own shit...think of the daily scavengers (Cleaning staff) who clean the road side...whose shit are they cleaning anyway?"

...thats the difference between beauty and ugly.......you know...its our mind that responds by its growth.......everything is ugly...everything is a beauty...its just not the eyes...but its the whole being that reacts to that which is beauty and ugly....its all in the brain........i used to write in my earlier blogs...beauty is inner which has to be dug out and surveyed...churned out...the ugly is same like beauty.......the churning of ocean brought out both amruth and visham.......the who churns only knows what is what......."sarva dharmaan parithajya maamekam saranam baja..."...but we are all the self same one...

His blog titled "Grace of the true Guru"

"O the heart of the hearts, i opened unto you!

thou the holiest of the places, shall keep though!

i thought!

in my deep lands of love!

yet, i hate now, i am not in you!!!

O the heart of the hearts, take my soul!

i shall not perish, when i am in you!

i will not be free nor would i be bound!

i will be safe inside you relishing the nectar of your love!

O the heart of the hearts,

O my divine biggest soul,

how did i come here,

into the world of so many souls,

make me bigger like you,

then shall i not drown!!

Take my hands,

O my God and Lord of Gods!

whom shall i call the Lord or God, other then you!

I call you my Guru!!

O the one who bestows good luck and good!

O my guru, my lord, my god,

i still repent for my births

and search for you!!".......

"jo bole vaachaa meri, wohi mera sathguru!"

She whispered in my mind!

My deaf ears!

She is so near!

She whispered in my ears!

A sweet "good bye"!

How could I say, her words were "bitter"?

She said, "we are not made for each other!"

How could I hear?

I said, loud, "Oh! My dear! I know you will never be mine,

But,

Just think over! We be friends forever?"

She said, "never ever!"

I requested, "My dear, please say, so long!"

And then.

She had, for me, a song.

"hai tumse.ho na ho.muje.itna yakeen hai.muje pyar tumse.nahi hai.muje pyar tumse nahi hai."

And then.

Now and then.

I miss her!

I miss her!

Miserable truth!

Miserly life!

What did I need?

What did I give her?

Nothing!

Nothing!

I know

How much I love her!

And then.

I know, she is happy!

My dear is so happy now!

She laughs at me!

My love will remember her!

And then.

I requested her, "If not love me, please try to remember.??"

Her silence told me her words!

Her eyes told me afterwards,

she had someone more "dearer!"

My heart beats and just beats,

yes,

for her!

My heart has no corners.

she is in the center!!

And then.

I sang for me.

"ek akela is seher mein.raath mein aur dhaupahar mein.aabodhaana doondthaa hai.aashiyaanaa.doondthaa hai.ek akela is seher mein."

And then.

I live. I live. I live.

I think, "She must be happy!"

Her words ring in my mind,

my ears!

I miss her!

And then.

I write this poem for her.because.I miss her!!!

She will miss me now!!

I will not say "forever!"

Because.she is so dear!!

I miss her!

You know why? I will tell you dear ones!!

"Money can break anything!" "Money will break any relations!" "Money is killer!" "Money is addictions!" After all, "Money is a Need!" "Money breeds money minded!" "Money gets along with Money only!" "there is no substitute for money!"

Money breaks homes!! Money cannot give life but it can take life!! Today's world is more crazy after money!! Anything is money now! Be it hospitals, educational institutions, jobs, marriages.name anything.there is a mention of the word "money!"

Talking about relations I get this thought! "No one can take the place of Mother!"

You know why? Women are seen and play the various roles in our lives! Women are as a mother, sister, wife, daughter and friend!! Other then mother, all the other relations leave us!!

A sister gets married and goes to her husband's house!

A daughter too gets married and goes to son-in-laws house!

A wife can always ask for a "divorce"!

A friend can break and say "be done with your friendship!"

A mother is always there either waiting for us or at least thinking about us!!

Even if one quotes the story of devaki and yashoda!! We know the mother is mother who takes the burden and pains of keeping us and let us grow in her womb! And even after pains she gives us birth and smiles for us!! Fathers are just some support due to their responsibility given as husband!!

I bow to my mother and father, they are really gems! I still depend on them!! I am never a burden, even if they expect from me to perform, I know, they always are concerned about me!!

Aaah! Money is power! How I just dream and fantasize! "someday some alien space craft will land and give me some magical ring or lamp! Or there will be some genie! Or my roof top will break and I will have rains of money!! (Gujarat is prone to earthquakes, and surely my apartment building which is old enough will crumble!! Ha ha ha ..." I fantasize!! Then too, minds, seem creepy!! My salary just flies off by the end of the second week!! Thanks to my dad, who does not complaint much!! (i still think how he grew up and took hardships to feed us with patience! he knows his responsibility!!) God bless my parents!!

Sorry folks to write such a sober blog!! Needed to flush my mind!!

I start my blog with this humble prayer to the God of Medicines, Dhanvanthari! You can recite this particular sloka/ mantra for your well being as well as for the well being of others!

"Om namo bhagwathe

dhanwantharaye

amrutha kalasha hasthaaya

sarva may vinaashaay

thrailoka naathaay

shri maha vishnuve swaahaa!"

You can add "mama sarva vaayadhi/ roga/ jara nivaarnaay/ vinaashaay" after "Sarva may vinaashay" to add more power to the above!

Note: I write this blog in the universal interests of humankind and this earth!

I heard this small story, from one of my seniors, who had a severe paralytic stroke due to high blood pressure! Being hospitalized and due to heavy medications could not eat much! I used to visit him and he used to be eager to share his philosophy and spiritual knowledge! And when one day he took food, he remembered this story, which I narrate here!

The son of a rishi acquires knowledge, and boasts of his knowledge! He keeps saying "atma brahmam! Prutvi brahmam!" the father wants to test his son! Father instructs his wife not to provide any food to their son! One day, two days pass! Father asks his son, "what is brahmam?" once again the son repeats the same what he learnt! Finally after some days, the hungry son, cannot bear the hunger! He requests for food! The father also gives food but puts this question! The son putting the first morsel in the mouth, shouts "Annam Brahmam! Annan Brahmam!" So food is brahmam! And yes "Sarvam Brahmam!" Brahmam is everything and everywhere! That's what our Indian hindu texts shout!! We still keep asking about what is atma, what is prana and now what is brahmam?

While writing this story I remembered this small conversation, which is narrate hereunder!

There was this traveler, who during some conversation, suddenly was telling a fellow traveler to stop eating meat and be vegetarian.

Vegetarian: Eating meat is bad! Very bad! That's why whomsoever comes to me, I advise him to stop eating meat and be a vegetarian!

I: You seem to be a vegetarian!

Vegetarian: Yes! I am! I like to be a vegetarian!

I: But, this world is big, there are both vegetarians and non-vegetarians! How can you stop people!

Vegetarian: At least some will listen! But some tell me, we have to eat meat, to stop the population of animals from increasing and maintaining the balance on this earth! If we don't eat meat, then the population of animals will increase! We shout and make noises even when we are a little bit bruised or cut, how would the animals feel?

I: Now! that's a good reason to be a non-vegetarian!

Vegetarian: Ok ok! But people even eat cows! Don't you think its wrong!

I: Well, in words, one jiva atma cannot take life of other jiva-atma! That way its wrong! Remember this earth takes care of itself always! there is never imbalance in and on this earth! you will see many things happening which will balance the environment, ecology and humans!! dont worry!!!

Vegetarian: Yeah! They ask me, how can you drink the milk of the cow, even the milk of cow must be termed a "non-vegetarian"!!

I: That's a nice question! I never thought that cow's milk falls in the category of non-vegetarian food!! Even some people drink milk of sheep/goat/ camel!!

Vegetarian: Are you a non-vegetarian or vegetarian?

I: I am a Vegetarian! But then, this world (earth) exists since ages! We don't know what our ancestors or fore-fathers ate a food! Its only with time we knew, that every living creation has life! Some stopped eating meat and some continued! A human must decide on his own as to be a vegetarian or non-vegetarian!

Note: any animal or human or bird has a life! think while you eat!!

I have heard that even eggs available are of two kinds "vegetarian eggs" and "non-vegetarian eggs"! Sometimes, doctors advise their patients to take some eggs as a immediate supplement of vitamin or for some deficiency! Even fish oil (cod lever oil) is suggested for some body deficiency! Ayurveda has the cow dung or cow's urine as a medicine! We still read or hear about the humans in deep jungles who are even human eaters!

I tell people, eat that you find to be hygienic and suitable to your likings! Every living creation has life! So the trees and plantations too have life! If one thinks too much into being a vegetarian or non-vegetarian, there will be only arguments and no conclusions! Think of the food you eat! Food is prana (life)! Anything you eat gives you the necessary life!

Those who have turned into terrorists and killers and murderers are the non-vegetarians! These killers and murderers don't have mercy but only some goal, their goal is to kill fellow humans either in the name of religion, state, country or anything!!

We are all humans and born to be humans! We got this earth to live but we end up killed or as a killer!! Do we know the purpose of our birth?
