Rise and pray every day: "Again today, dear God, I commit and trust my life and way to you. I'm available. Please use me to be as Jesus to every life I touch."
"Don't sweat the small stuff."
Remember these simple sentences: "I was wrong." "I am sorry." "Please forgive me." "Thank you." Say them whenever needed and say "I love you" often—whether needed or not.
Come apart and rest a while before you come apart—stress is a killer.
Remember, "Nothing changes if nothing changes."
Don't nurse grudges: "Failing to forgive is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die."
Carpe diem. Seize the day. "Opportunity comes to pass—not to pause."
Quit the blame-game—"it's choice, not chance, that determines destiny."
Control your thinking or your thinking will control you. "What the mind dwells on the body acts on."
Invest your life in a worthwhile cause by having a noble purpose for which to live—a purpose that is bigger than yourself for which to live—one that will help make your world a better place in which to live.
Be a positive realist. You will always see what you are looking for: "Two men look out the same prison bars. One sees mud, the other stars."
The greatest abilities are availability, dependability and responsibility.
"There is no pillow as soft as a clear conscience."
"Smooth seas never make skillful sailors."
When God is silent. "I believe in the sun even when it isn't shining. I believe in love even when I am alone. I believe in God even when he is silent."
Cry when needed. "Every unshed tear is a prism through which all of life's hurts are distorted."
Laugh a lot. It's still the best medicine.
Remember, "The bumps are what we climb on."
Fear not. At least 95 percent of the things we fear never happen. Trust God for the other five percent.
Have faith and put God first with your time, talents, and tithe.
"Trust in the LORD and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him and he will do this: He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn, the justice of your cause like the noonday sun".

SILENCE
After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music.
Silence is the true friend that never betrays.
In this vastness there is place for space and much more.
In this eternity there is place for time and the chimes of its measure.
In the depth of the deep there is space for the light to enter but not the door to escape.
In the roaming mind, there is space for the quietude by the tapas of fortitude.
In the emerald blue silence there is space for awareful existence of the fullness of ananda.
In the awareness there is melody of the music of the spheres pulsating with cosmic life---heard only in silence.
In consciousness, you and I are nowhere or everywhere vibrant in the soft whisper of the fathomless silence.
Silence is one of the hardest arguments to refute.
In the End, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.
I have often regretted my speech, never my silence.

SOME TRUTHS ABOUT LIFE
ADVICE IS WHAT WE ASK FOR WHEN WE ALREADY KNOW THE ANSWER BUT WISH WE DIDN’T.
IT DOESN’T MATTER WHO YOU LOVE,OR HOW YOU LOVE,BUT THAT YOU LOVE.
DON’T COMPLAIN ABOUT GROWING OLD—MANY,MANY PEOPLE DO NOT HAVE THAT PRIVILEGE.
LOVE IS A MATTER OF CHEMISTRY,BUT SEX IS A MATTER OF PHYSICS.
EVERY CHILD IS AN ARTIST.THE PROBLEM IS HOW TO REMAIN AN ARTIST ONCE HE GROWS UP.
A FOOL IN LOVE MAKES NO SENSE TO ME. I ONLY THINK YOU ARE A FOOL IF YOU DO NOT LOVE.
I’M TIRED OF ALL THIS NONSENSE ABOUT BEAUTY BEING ONLY SKIN DEEP. THAT’S DEEP ENOUGH. WHAT DO YOU WANT,ADORABLE KIDNEYS?
THE GREATEST TRAGEDY OF LIFE IS NOT THAT MEN PERISH,BUT THAT THEY CEASE TO LOVE.
SOME THINGS HAVE TO BE BELIEVED TO BE SEEN.
I WAS BORN IN BED WITH A LADY.
I FIND TV VERY EDUCATING.EVERY TIME SOMEBODY TURNS IT ON, I GO AND READ THE NEWSPAPER.

THOUGHTS FOR EVERYBODY
There are some things so serious you have to laugh at them.
The men who succeed best in public life are those who take the risk of standing by their own convictions.
Common sense is the collection of prejudices acquired by age eighteen.
The trouble with being punctual is that nobody’s there to appreciate it.
All my life, I always wanted to be somebody. Now I see that I should have been more specific.
While we are focusing on fear, worry, or hate, it is not possible for us to be experiencing happiness, enthusiasm or love.
Marriage is a great institution, but I’m not ready for an institution yet.
Nothing is at last sacred but the integrity of your own mind.

GOD MY LORD MY LORD
“Lord, reform Thy world, beginning with me.” This is a prayer of a Chinese Christian, which President Roosevelt quoted at a press conference in 1941.
Lord, my Lord, I know. I know that my nature’s transformation is the answer to the world’s transformation.
Lord, my Lord, I know. I know that my heart’s purity and my life’s humility comprise my soul’s magnanimity.
Lord, my Lord, I know. I know that my love of You is my journey. I know that my surrender to You is my Destination.
Lord, my Lord, I know. I know that in my desire-world I am the abyss of nothingness. I know that in my aspiration-world I am the sea of fullness.
Yesterday, my Lord, I came to You proudly and haughtily. Today, my Lord, I have come to You devotedly and unreservedly. Tomorrow, my Lord, I shall come to You soulfully and unconditionally. Lord, my Lord, when I speak to the world about You, it is not my personal opinion. It is the revelation of my sweet oneness relation with You.
Lord, my Lord, do make me see and feel that my heart’s perfection-cry has to be continued and transcended.
Lord, my Lord, do make me see and feel that my life’s satisfaction-smile has to be renewed daily and pursued.
Lord, my Lord "I bow to you with all humility and unconditionally and seek your blessings."

God, The Author of All Good
Man's eternal question is:"Who is God?"
GOD'S immediate answer is:"My child, who else is God, if not you?"
Man's eternal question is:"Who is God?"
GOD'S immediate answer is:"My child, who else is God, if not you?"
GITA SAAR
Why do you worry unnecessarily? What are you afraid of? Who can kill destroy you? A soul is never born, so it never dies.
Whatever happened in the past, happened for the best; whatever is happening, is happening for the best; whatever will happen in future, will happen for the best. Do not repent the past, do not worry for future, concentrate on your present.
What did you own, that makes you cry on losing? What did you bring, that you fear losing? What did you give birth to, that you fear its destruction? You didn't bring anything. Whatever one takes, one must return it to God. Everyone came empty handed and will therefore die, empty handed.
Whatever belongs to you today, belonged to someone else yesterday and it will belong to some one else tomorrow. Don't be illusioned by maya. Maya is the root cause of all pain and misery.
Change is the rule of nature. What one understands, as death is actually life itself. One moment you are the owner of crores and in the very next moment you become a pauper.
Your body doesn't belong to you and vice versa. Body is composed of five elements- Fire, Water, Air, Earth and Sky; one day it will perish in these elements.
Offer yourself to the Almighty Lord. This is the best support. One who knows this unconditional support gains freedom from fear, worry and despair.

THINK BIG
Communication is to a relationship what breathing is to living.
The best way to predict the future is to invent it.
Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one.
Knowing others is intelligence, knowing yourself is true wisdom.
Mastering others is strength; mastering yourself is true power.
In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the
silence of our friends.
It’s a funny thing about life; if you refuse to accept anything but the best,
You very often get it.
A ship in harbour is safe but that’s not what ships are built for.

GAYATRI MANTRA - ITS MEANING
AUM BHOOR BHUWAH SWAHA,
TAT SAVITUR VARENYAM
BHARGO DEVASAYA DHEEMAHI
DHIYO YO NAHA PRACHODAYAT.
Summary of the Mantra
Oh God! Thou art the Giver of Life, Remover of pain and sorrow, The Bestower of
Happiness,Oh! Creator of the Universe, May we receive thy supreme sin-destroying
Light, May Thou guide our intellect in the right direction.

Meaning of Gayatri Mantra
Rishis selected the words of various Mantras and arranged them so that they not only
Convey meaning but also create specific power through their utterance. Gayatri Mantra
Inspires wisdom. Its meaning is that “May the Almighty God illuminate our intellect to
Lead us along the righteous path”. All the problems of a person are solved if he/she is
Endowed with the gift of righteous wisdom. Once endowed with far sighted wisdom, a
Person is neither entangled in calamity nor does he/she tread the wrong path. A wise
Person finds solution to all outstanding problems. Only those persons who do not think
Correctly find difficulty and take wrong steps due to foolishness. Chanting of Gayatri
Mantra removes the deficiency. The teachings and powers incorporated in the Gayatri
Mantra fulfill this purpose. Righteous wisdom starts emerging soon after Jap(recitation)
Of this Mantra is performed.
AUM…BRAHMA OR THE LORD ALMIGHTY.
TAT…. THAT(AGAIN THE LORD ALMIGHTY..THE ONLY ONE AND ONE.)
SAT…. THE ONLY TRUTH..THE LORD ALMIGHTY.. THE ONLY ONE.
BRAHMA DOES NOT ONLY MEAN BRAHMA, WHEN WE SAY BRAHMA, VISHNU AND MAHESH. BRAHMA IS ACTUALLY ONE NAME FOR THE LORD OF UNIVERSE... THE LORD OF ALL BEINGS.
AUM TAT SAT …..OH! LORD OF THE UNIVERSE WE BOW TO THEE FOR ONLY YOU ARE THE TRUTH AND THE ONLY ONE.
