Doing good to others is virtue

(Dharma); injuring others is sin.

Strength and manliness are virtue;
weakness and cowardice are sin.
Independence is virtue; dependence
is sin. Loving others is virtue; hating
others is sin. Faith in God and in ones
own self is virtue; doubt is sin.
Nature wants us to re-act blow for
blow, cheating for cheating, lie for lie,
to hit back with all our might. It
requires a super divine power not to
hit back, to keep control, to keep
unattached.
Never mind failures, they are quite
natural, They are the beauty of life,
what would life be without them?
Three men cannot act in concert
together in India for five minutes.

Each one struggles for power and in

the long run, the whole organization
comes to grief.
When doubts haunt me, when
disappointments stare me in the face
and when I see not one ray of light on
the horizon I turn to Bhagavadgita
and find a verse to comfort me and I
immediately begin to smile in the
midst of over whelming sorrow. My life
has been full of external tragedies
and if they had not left any visible and
indelible effect on me I owe it to
teachings of Bhagavadgita.

We want that education by which
character is formed, strength if mind
is increased, the intellect is expanded,
and by which one can stand on one
own feet.
To me the very essence of education
is concentration of mind, not the
collecting of facts.
Bring light to the ignorant, and more
light to the educated for the vanities
of the education of our time are
tremendous.
The more the power of concentration,
the more knowledge is acquired,

because concentration is the one and

only one method of acquiring
knowledge.
The education which does not help
individuals to equip themselves for
the struggle of life, which does not
bring out strength of character, a
spirit of philanthropy and the
couragre of a lion is it worth the
name?
Fortune favours the brave and
energetic. Infinite energy, infinite
enthusiasm, infinite daring, infinite
patience : Then alone can great deeds
be accomplished.
The mind uncontrolled and unguided
will drag us down, down for ever-rend
us, kill us, and the mind controlled
and quided will save us, free us.

When a man is under the control of

senses he is of the world. When he
has controlled the senses the world is
of him.
Desires of the body bring only
momentary satisfaction and endless
misery.

DID YOU KNOW?

The word February is from the
Roman Calendar. In the Roman
Calendar the first month of the
year was March, which was named
after the Roman god of war, Mars.
Because this was the time, war could
be resumed. February was the last
month of the year and it was named
after Februariua, the ritual for
atonement.

Take one thing up and do it, and see

the end of it, and before you have
seen the end, do not give it up.
God blesses those families where
women are happy and well treated.
Character has to be established
through a thousand stumbles.
The ideal of womanhood in India is
motherhood; that marvelous,
unselfish, all suffering, ever forgiving
mother.
So long as there is fear it is not love.
Love never asks, never begs. Love
loves for the sake of love itself.
You may always say that the image is
God, the error you have to avoid is to
think God the image.

Learn everything that is good from

others, but bring it in, and in your own
way absorb it, do not become others.
Anything that makes you physically,
intellectually, and spiritually, reject it
as position.
This life is short, the vanities of the
world are transient but they alone live
who live for others, the rest are more
dead than alive.
Vedanta recognizes no sin. It
recognizes only error, says Vedanta, is
to say that you are weak, that you are
a sinner, and that you have no power
and you cannot do this and that.
When a man is under the control of
senses, he is of the world. When he
has controlled the senses the world is
of him.

Do good to all, like everyone, but do

not love anyone.

MONEY IS A GOOD SERVANT.

A VERY BAD MASTER

BUT

Man needs food, shelter and

clothing. Money is required to get
them. So, money is very important
for his survival. Man works very hard
to earn it. It is a great blessing if he
handles it carefully. If he misuses it,
he will be in trouble. The worship of
Mammon is the cause of all evils.
Love of wealth is responsible for
many wars also. Money, is like a
double edged weapon. Man can make

use of it for constructive or

destrictive purposes. It is very
harmful if it is allowed to over-ride
him. If a man becomes too much
money-minded he becomes very
dangerous. He behaves like a
savage. He losses his character,
name and fame to get money.
