An Awakening to the Youth

Dinacharya in Daily Life:

These  are the  Essentials of Dinacharya for the brave youth of India given by Sri Swami Sivananda for all round development of physical, mental and spiritual healths to reach our goal successfully......

Sri Swami Sivanananda, one of India's enlightened masters These twenty instructions contain the very essence of all Yoga Sadhana. Karma, Bhakti, Jnana, and Raja Yoga will all come to one who follows them whole-heartedly. They are the unfailing keys to quick and effective development and culture of the physical, mental, moral and spiritual self of man.

In todays most busy and machine life, time may not be available to follow all in a day but let us start with any 5 of 20 instructions given below....take any 5 and start early to get the strength and manhood which must be the motto of Indian youth.



1. BRAHMAMUHURTA

                                     

Get up at 4 a.m. daily. This is Brahmamuhurta which is extremely favorable for Sadhana. Do all your morning spiritual Sadhana during this period from 4 a.m. to 6:30 or 7 a.m. Such Sadhana gives quick and maximum progress.

2. ASANA


Sit on Padmasana (lotus pose), Siddhasana (adept's pose) or Sukhasana (any pose you like) for your Japa and meditation for half an hour, facing east or north. Increase the period gradually to three hours. Practice Sirshasana (headstand) and Sarvangasana (shoulderstand) for maintenance of health and Brahmacharya. Take light physical exercises as walking, etc., regularly. Do twenty rounds of easy, comfortable Pranayama (breathing exercises). Do not strain yourself while doing Pranayama.

3. JAPA

                                  

 You can repeat any Mantra (sacred syllable), such as pure Om or Om Namo Narayanaya, Sri Ram, Sita Ram, Sri Ram Jaya Ram Jaya Jaya Ram, Om Namah Sivaya, Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya, Om Saravanabhavaya Namah, Hari Om, or Gayatri (a sacred Vedic Mantra), according to your taste or inclination, from 108 times to 21,600 times daily. Devotees of Christ may repeat the name Jesus or Hail Mary, Mother of Jesus. Parsis, Sikhs and Muslims may select a name or Mantra from the Zend Avesta, Granth Sahib or Koran respectively.

4. DIETETIC DISCIPLINE


Take Sattvic food. Give up chillies, tamarind, garlic, onion, sour articles, oil, mustard, asafoetida. Observe moderation in diet (Mitahara). Do not overload the stomach. Give up those things which the mind likes best for a fortnight once or twice in a year. Eat simple food. Milk and fruits help concentration. Take food as medicine to keep the life going. Eating for enjoyment is a sin. Give up salt and sugar for a week or a fortnight. You must be able to live on rice, dhal and bread without any pickle. Do not ask for extra salt for dhal, and sugar for tea, coffee and milk. People taking a non-vegetaraian diet should try their best to gradually give up flesh-eating as completely as possible. They will be immensely benefited.



5. MEDITATION

                                       

 Have a separate meditation room under lock and key. If this is not possible then a corner of the room should be set apart with a small cloth screen or curtain drawn across. Keep the room spotlessly clean.

6. SVADHYAYA


STUDY SYSTEMATICALLY THE GITA, RAMAYANA, BHAGAVATAM, VISHNU    SAHASRANAMA, LALITA-SAHASRANAMA, ADITYAHRIDAYA, UPANISHADS, YOGA VASISHTA, BIBLE, IMITATION OF CHRIST, ZEND QURAN, THE TRIPITAKAS, THE GRANTH SAHIB AND OTHER RELIGIOUS BOOKS FROM HALF AN HOUR TO ONE HOUR DAILY, AND HAVE SUDDHA VICHARA (PURE THOUGHTS).


    
7. ELEVATE THE MIND


Learn by heart some prayer - Slokas (prayer verses), Stotras (hymns) and repeat them as soon as you sit in the Asana before starting Japa or meditation. This will elevate the mind quickly.

8. BRAHMACHARYA


Preserve the vital force (Veerya (seminal energy)) very, very carefully. Veerya is God in motion or manifestation (Vibhuti). Veerya is all power. Veerya is all money. Veerya is the essence of life, thought and intelligence. This instruction is not for bachelors only. Householders also must follow it as far as possible. They must be extremely moderate in their marital connections with their spouse. This is very important.


9. CHARITY

                                      

Do charity regularly, every month, or even daily according to your means. Never fail in this item. If necessary forego some personal wants but keep up this charity regularly.

10. HAVE SATSANG


Give up bad company, smoking, meat and alcoholic liquors entirely. Have constant Satsang (association with holy people). Do not develop any evil habits. Deliberately exert to develop positive virtuous qualities.

11. FAST


Fast on Ekadasi (11th day of the Hindu lunar fortnight) or live on milk and fruits only. Christians must fast on alternate Sundays, Muslims on alternate Fridays, and Parsis on a suitable day every fortnight.

12. JAPA MALA


Have a Japa Mala (rosary) around your neck or in your pocket or underneath your pillow at night. This will remind you of God. Twirl the beads during your leisure. You should repeat the Name at all times, whatever task you may be engaged in.

13.  OBSERVE MOUNA

                         

                                             

Observe Mouna (vow of silence) for a couple of hours daily. Do not make gestures and inarticulate noises during the period of silence.

14. DISCIPLINE OF SPEECH


Speak the truth at all cost. Speak a little. Speak sweetly. Always utter encouraging words. Never condemn, criticize or discourage. Do not raise your voice and shout at little children or subordinates.

15. BE CONTENT


Reduce your wants. If you have four shirts, reduce the number to three or two. Lead a happy, contented life. Avoid unnecessary worry. Be mentally detached. Have plain living and high thinking. Think of those who do not possess even one-tenth of what you have. Share with others.

16. PRACTICE LOVE

                            

                                    

Never hurt anybody. Ahimsa Paramo Dharmah (Non-injury is the highest virtue). Control anger by love, Kshama (forgiveness) and Daya (compassion). Serve the sick and the poor with love and affection. This is service of God.

17. BE SELF RELIANT


Do not depend upon servants. Self-reliance is the highest of all virtues.

18. HAVE SELF-ANALYSIS


Think of the mistakes you have committed during the course of the day, just before retiring to bed (self-analysis). Keep a daily spiritual diary and self-correction register as Benjamin Franklin did. Maintain a daily routine and resolve-form. Do not brood over past mistakes.

19. DO YOUR DUTY


Remember that death is awaiting you at every moment. Never fail to fulfil your duties. Have pure conduct (Sadachara).

20. REMEMBER GOD


Think of God as soon as you wake up and just before you go to sleep, and at all other times whether engaged in any work or not. Repeat His Name always. Surrender yourself completely to God (Saranagati).


This is the essence of all spiritual Sadhana. It will lead you to liberation. All these spiritual canons must be rigidly observed. You must not give any leniency to the mind.

Recall GITA, The great legacy of India....

India's most celebrated Lord Sri Krishna Janmastami ni puraskarichukuni Sri Krishna manakitchina timeless wisdom Bhagavad Gita ni once recall cheddham...Doctor patient ki disease cure avvalani elagaite prescription istado same alage Sri Krishna, manam life lo happy ga, inspiring ga and fearless ga undataniki and direct God ne reach avadaniki many kinds of instructions n directions itchadu GITA lo. Asalu God ae direct ga vatchi cheppina kuda vinkapote evariki loss.....? So let us recall the simplified version of Upanishads,i.e Gitopanishad.....!! 


The Bhagavad Gita (Song of God), also more simply known as Gita, is a 700-verse, 18 chapters Hindu scripture , occurs in the Bhishma Parva of the ancient Hindu epic, The Mahabharata. It's authorship is traditionally credited to Vyasa, the composer of the Mahabharata. There are total 18 yogas are given in Gita out of which 4 are main and those are Karma Yoga(Selfless Action), Bhakti(Devotion), Dhyana(Meditation) and Jnana Yogas(Self Transcending Knowledge)...The main theme of all yogas are to train body and mind to reach Him who resides beyond our body n mind, the God..!!


1st Gita ni understand cheskovalante we have to assume Sri Krishna as God of all and Arjuna as a Human. So whatever Krishna tells in Gita is not only for Arjuna its for entire Humanity without distinction of religion, country, cast or age. Gita is for everyone and Sri Krishna is everything.


Now let us understand something in brief.....1st of all Arjuna opposite Kaurava team lo unna relatives ni, cousins ni, Gurus ni etc andarni chusi bhadapadtadu, endukante champadam papam ani feel avtadu. So silent ga kurchuni Krishna to antadu, Oh..Krishna let us go back, I am unable to fight here coz while seeing all my Gurus nd Realatives nd etc here I lost my confidence....lyk manam exam lo telsina questions vatchina sare....drop pettestam kada....alaage same but here Arjuna...!! Inka Arjuna thana fear ni cover cheyadaniki ila antadu.."Oh..Krishna while knoweldge is important than action, Why should I fight in this battle...?"


Ika Gita start chestadu Sri Krishna..."Oh Arjuna...Ikkada jarightunnadi Dharmaniki and Adharmaiki madhya Yuddham, wrong side lo unnavallu ni sonthavallaina sare.. .!! nuvu valltho yuddha cheyalsindhe..!! Aina nuvvevaru ikkada champadaniki...? asalu evarni champtunnav nuvvu..just physical ga matrme kada..!!...Atma(soul) ni evaru champagalaru.?..aina nuvvikada em chestunnanv..? nuvvem cheyyagalav..? nuvvemi cheyatledu...I am doing everything thourgh your body...you are just artist here..anthe....ee matram daanike bhayapadtava..? inta timid warrior va nuvvu? Oh Arjuna.. comeon Stand up!! Be Bold.. Be Strong....do the work but dont get attached to it...do the best and leave the rest to me.."


O Arjuna..!! results gurunchi neekenduku..? u came here empty handed nd u'll leave empty handed, never to fear, never to worry, do your own Dharma...ni mansu ni napai fix chesi untchu inka neeku bhayam ledu Arjuna...!!!!!!!!
Ila Sri Krishna Arjuna fear ni smash chestadu but Arjuna ki full confidence raadu. Ika ee univrse creation venakunna secrets anni cheppestadu Sri Krishna..
"Sri Krishna Vishwaruupam chupistadu...adi chusinappudu Arjuna ki ekkada chusina God ae kanpistadu...all the 8 sides became Sri Krishna,up and down also became Sri krishna, sky became Krishna, earth became Krishna, Sun became Krishna and everything became Krishna...only Krishna.Inka appudu artham cheskuntadu..."O Krishna..you are the creator of this universe and u became this universe" ani ...So no Arjuna nothing ani, only Krishna is evryhwere ani artam avtadi mana Arjuna ki....


Malli Krishna continue chestadu...
"O Arjuna..u hav fear coz u dont know abt urself but I dont hav any fear coz I know abt all my past births and ur previous births too..."
"Hey Arjuna...I am your past, present and I am alone your future...surrender unto me ..this is the ultimate perfection of life. "


Ila inspiration oka range lo untadi. Asalu Gita lo main theme...Strength. Arjuna as a man(Jeeva) questions vestuntdu and Krishna as a God(Brahman) answers itchi doubts anni clarify chestadu...Ila Arjuna's fear ni total ga smash chestadu. But Krishna cheppina motham secrets anni telsukovalante we have to read Bhagavad Gita..not just as some book which we place in Puja rooms but as a song of God.


Gita ni local and native language lo chadivi, artham cheskunte aa kickee veru. So let us start from now onwards reading Gita, which tells about the infinite strength which is hidden internally in every human being. Mainly Gita is for those young energetic powerful strong and great thinkers. Youth alone can understand better than others....!!!!!!!


...Wishing you all a very inpsirational Sri Krishnashtami....Jai Sri Krishna.

The story of faith....Gajendra Moksham...

Once there lived an elephant named Gajendra....was the king of great Kingdom of huge herd elephants and had many queen elaphants with whom he used to play nd enjoy....

So obviously he was proud abt his status. Correct ga oka summer day roju it was bathing in river nd suddenly crocodile came nd caught it's leg nd pulled it to the bottom of the lake...dorikindi ra chance anukundi..:) :)

Gajendra tried to get rid of it, tried n tried but no chance of leaving....crocoidile ki leka leka oka chance dorikindi, inka how it'll leave....Gajendra ki kinda mida pagilipothundi...evadu help cheyadaniki daggariki ravatlaa..!! status, elephants, queens, kingdom, luxary... veetilo edi help cheyale.......Inka he felt last bt nt least hope is God...andarki God unnadani struck ayedi ee time lane....

Inka he started praying..."O Narayana..some ppl say you are present nd some ppl say you are nt present..but if you are ther...e then come and protect me... O god please protect I am unable to bear this damn bloody crocodile...:) " O Narayana....kondaru nuvvu unav antaru...kondaru nuv lev antau...but unte ravayya vatchi nannu ee mosali nuchi kaapadu...!!" 

Cut cheste Vaikuntam....akkada Lakshmi asking Narayana....."Oh my Lord...you always listen to devotee's prayer nd u protect them unconditionlly..but nw ur nt paying least attention to ur devotee's prayer...!!!!" Now Narayana replies.."You see this fellow doubting my presence...ohh.....O Narayan nuv unte raa anta..!!!.......chusava...anumanam...ika naa mide veediki doubt unte how can I save HIM............."

Ikkada Crocodile bhibhatsanga peekestundi...Gajendra unable to bear the pain...blood is gng..!! nd he undrstud Y God is nt responding...Now Statd praying...O Narayana nuv unnavo levo annadi kadu matter.......

O God nuv unnav.....nuv matrame nannu save cheyagalav..nuv thappa yevaru leru....hooo God protect me..otherwise I may die...Inka anumanam vadilesi prayer cheydam start chesadu....

The next moment Narayana took his vehicle nd inka okka moment kuda think cheyakunda...prepare ayyado ledo chuskokunda......Shanka Chakralu unnayo levo kuda chuskokunda........Vaikuntham lo nunchi yegiri spot lo unna Gajendra ni protect chesestadu...." 

This is the story of "Gajendra Moksham".....

Moral: Anni unnapudu matram yegesi mana dhaggare untaru.. Problems unapudu evadu mana dhaggara undadu....

Nammithe 100% nammali.....doubt lekunda anukunnadi jaruguthadi....nammite aa God ni 100% nammite...200% edanna jargalsindhe...!!

Thaking you for reading my post...!!!

Specially thanking you for reading my post patiently.

“An Eternal Quest”

Finding Solutions……… through Spirituality:

 Fore Word:

My humble Pranams to all…

I want to begin my talk by taking a quote of Eleanor Roosevelt...

“Great minds discuss ideas.

Average minds discuss events.

Small minds discuss people.”

From the above quote I request you…to become great...Let us leave others to go in their own way…

But let us become great to disuses great ideas always,

Inka how many days little things discuss chestu undipodaam..?

Inka enni rojulu ila negligible tiny atoms gaane undipodaam..?

Alas..! For our country’s sake let us become great…

Asalu manam intha narrow minded ga undataniki reason enti…? It’s none other than our great educational system. We entirely hypnotized by it. From our childhood onwards we made to think low, we made to be ordinary. This whole process made us always to act like lilliputs.

My friends let us become great, greater than before what we are. We must be advanced to dehypnotize ourselves with the new treatment that consists of strength and courage.

Now let us get into our present concept…

Chala mandi parents antuntaru Bhagavadgeeta or spirituality related books young age lo kadu old age lo chadavamani…..aa age lo inka cheyydaniki emi migaladu kada…andukannamata…aina young age nunchi antha valueless life gadipesi brashtu patti poyi  alage old age loki enter ayyi Bhagavad Gita chadivithe aa book ae brashtu patti pathundi, alanti vallu chadivithe Bhagavad Gita value bhi padipothadi.

Oka plant ni water posi, fertilizers vesi alaage fencing tho surround chesi care ga penchutam, endukante it has no capacity to take water and cannot protect itself from outside attacks. But ade plant, tree ayyaka ivanni avasarama…? It will get the capacity to protect, to live and has its own roots to take out all the needs from the inner layers of earth.

So young age lone we must be instilled by all kind of strengths like metal physical and spiritual…

In this very young age anything that makes us weak physically, intellectually and spiritually we must reject it as poison. We may fail in rejecting sometimes but slowly and steadily if we practice success will be ours.

Spirituality main ga strength gurunche always stress chestundi. Ee spiritual strength anedi monks , devotees inka forests lo unnavallake kadu manaku kuda mana goals achieve cheyadaniki avasarame. Spirituality lekunda nuv oka doctor vi aite with spirituality u can be a better doctor.

Mana chuttune enno confusions ennenno attraction unnnay asalu veetilo padi mana goal ento marchipothunnam. Manam veetannintilo untu kuda ela veetitho detach ayyi mana goal ki reach avvali anede kada real concept…!

Friends ikkada nenem raasina adi just basic level matrame. Just try to grasp them as the words from ur best friend. Endukante best friend chepte mistakes unna matter matrame artham chekodaniki try chestam kada.

                                                             

Nenedo pedda thopu nani ee post veyyaledu but na mind lo unna thought clouds ni words laga covert chesanu. Therefore what your reading now are the clouds that were roamed for so many times in my mind….anthe..!!

I divided this entire topic into several sub topics. So let us

Now I express my opinions on the following topics briefly….

1. Mental Fitness :

Emunna lekunna idi matram compulsory ga undalsinde. Ee vishayamlo manam mana ancient Rishi’s ki dandam pettalsinde. Antha old time lo kuda entha evolution…mind blowing. Valla lives ni renounce chesi telsukui mari manaku entho wisdom ni andicharu.

Main ga mana India lo excercies anni mental health , internal purity and breathing pattern ni base cheskuni untay. But western so called Gymnastics are just for show purpose matrame, may be limit ga cheste they might be useful. Aina higher goals unnavallaki avanni li8, just yoga is enough.

Now let us know the different types in excercises..

1.   Raja Yoga

2.   Hatta Yoga

3.   Gymnasium

Raja yoga deals with inner layers of mind and pure mental health. Hatta yoga deals with internal and external health and Gym is purely external based one.

Swami Vivekananda says in Raja Yoga…..”The fellows who acquired health through Hatta yoga lives up to 150 years without a single illness but these fellows are merely healthy animals, no use to our country at all.”

So friends we must first concentrate highly on meditation and next practice some asana’s of Hatta yoga and do some exercises of gym.

                       

Couple the hatta yoga and excercises to get all-round physical health but don’t addict to this. This is a small way to reach the high way which leads to our ultimate destination. We must concentrate on meditation to conquer our thought world and to manifest inner perfection.

These exercises are for making ourselves strong and bold enough to face the battle of life and to channelize all our mental energies ultimately to achieve our goal.

Okkosari emanipistundante..ehey ee meditation, yoga evadu chestadu, nakelagu raadu so li8 ani anpistadi but manaku rakapoyina manam cheyaka poyina ee prapanchanikochina loss em ledu, maname  losers. Inkosari ee goal idanta bullshit anpistundi…ala anpiste vadiley…evariki loss…neeke…!!

Aina ivanni vatti matalu….ivanni gatti thoughts tho replace cheyyalsinde…our Kandukoori Viresha Lingam says

“Vatti matalu katti pettoy…..Gatti mel thalpettavoy”

Useless ni reject cheyyadamantene manaku Everest ekkina daanikante ekkuva kastam…but it is possible by replacing our thoughts. My friend it is your thought process which makes you to become a saint or a sinner.

Andariki SONY(Japan) technology nunchi entha fine products vasthayo  telsu kada, andulo emplyees ela work chestaro telsa,… manager to employees daily first morning 1 hour meditation chesi aa tharvata  wok start chestaru. So we can understand how much evolution is going on. Asalu world lo meditation anede oka Finest thing, migata vanni by products… anthe…!!

àLet us look at following example.

Once upon a time, a disciple asked his master “master how to get powerful concentration…?” then master replied, “my child…when you walk…you walk, when you eat...you eat and when you play…you play….this is the secret of concentration”

My suggestion is, manam elagu early morning nidra nuchi bayatiki ralemu. In fact early morning from 4 am to 6.30 am our mind concentration will be topnotch means 100%. Em chesina quick results vastayi. Ika idi elaagu kudaradu. Next evening time lo kuda mind calm and quite avthundi. So every day at dawn time lo bayatiki velli listen to the sounds of silence. If you can do this your creativity will come out of itself.

Inka meditation lo, yoga lo, breathing and relaxation techniques lo kaani emanna doubts unte or asalu breathing correct pattern ela practice cheyyalo telsukovalante…. Mana RK math lo Swami Bodhamayananda ji ni and Yoga master ni adigi telsukovachu.

Be early to clarify yourselves….

Because “ Clarity is Power”

2. Unconditional Love :

Love gurunchi manaku telsindi chala takkuva...kaani konchem telsukuni ade love ankuntam.Inka cinematic love gurunchi cheppakkarledu....asalu adi love ani endukantaro aa story writers ke teliyali. Inka love at first sight ani..love rendu hrudayalaku sambandhinchindani, love guddidani, mugadani, etc etc...sava godtharu cinemallo…..

Love ante anthena anpinchedi chinnapudu. Kaani nijanga love ante...it’s infinite but not limited to one or two fellow’s ani ippudippude arthamavthundi.

For suppose oka boy oka girl ni chusi so called love lo paddadanukundam. Aa girl kosam emaina cheyadaniki, ante impress cheyyalani aameku teliyakundane natchina vento anni telsukuni vati gurunche disuss chestu, atu thiskelthu itu thiskelthu, parents mata vinakunda ratcha ratcha chestadu. Asalu kondaru ammayilu, intha foolish ga endukuntaro artham kaadu. Vadu chese yedhava tricks anni telsu but li8 thiskuntaru. Cut cheste deep love, we can call this deep love as lust. Inka chala jaruguthay. Ippudu inka pelli annamata. Both sides Parents asalu agree avvaru. Inka ekkadiko velli so called true friends help tho marriage cheskoni so called happy life gadapalani anukuntaru.

Now if we think in a different way, 20 -25 years ga thanani conditions and reasons lekunda love chesi penchi chadivinchi anni chesina varini vadilesi, valla matalu vinakunda vachina vadu…remaining 30-40 years life ammayi matalu ela vintadu. Aa ammayi matram thakkuva, 20 years ae pani cheyyakuda anni parents ke vadilesi happy ga unnna thanu ipudu veedi kosam pani chestunda..?. Inka next emjaraguthundo cheppadaniki enno examples TV9 valla dhaggaruntayi......

Inkoka way lo think cheddam. Oka andamina boy andamaina girl ni love chesi , andarni oppinchi iddaru pelli cheskunnaranukundam. Next day aa girl/boy ki accident ayyi oka leg/eye damage ayyi thisesaru anukundam ,ipudu aa girl/boy madhya anthe love untunda?...endukante physical appearance chusi love cheskunnaru kada............

Inkoka way lo think cheste valla parents,sisters and brothers pai love emaindi. Physical appearence problem aa leka pothe inka so called coming 40 years life ni own ga decide cheskovalanna thondaraaa..? Parents ni, brothers ni, sisters ni, friends ni, neighbours ni and teachers ni chusi nappudu express raaleni  “true love” oka ammayini chusinapude kaluguthundante adi love aa leka lust aa…?

What I want to say is true love is unconditional. No reason to love. Love depends on neither beauty, nor money nor fame; it’s just a feel that comes without a reason. And true love must touch each and every heart of universe without distinction of age, religion, place and etc. But now a day’s physical enjoyments kosam start chese process ni love antunnaru.

Aina evvaru chusina, please love me ani begger laga ammayila venta padatam ento artham kadu. Papam valla daggara emundi ivvadaniki. Ants ni sugar kosam vembadinchadementi?... vaatike dhikku ledu.

Here I want to mention a proverb, it goes like this....

"If I want to be a hunter, I'll hunt the rhinoceros; if I want to be a robber, I'll rob the king's treasury. What is the use of robbing beggars or hunting ants? So if you want to love, love God."

Now let us think love beg cheste vastunda..? leka pothe unconditional

ga vastunda?

We know already about true love, but physical enjoyments kihabbituate ayyam kada, anduke ee wrong interpretation chesthunnam….The people who follow spirituality  say that we are all the childs of same God and our source is same. So our love must not bounded by physical appearance. If love lo edanna expect cheste, like physical enjoyments ni, that is just lust.

Here we can understand the difference between the young people who knows spirituality and those who doesn't know. Because spirituality teaches universal love. Ee world lo ae okkarini kuda miss cheyyakunda andarni unconditional ga love cheyya galigithe, true love ento inka niku konchem telisinattu.

I think everyone knows how LORD Buddha loved even creatures as his own self and how Mother Teresa loved the people who suffering from leprosy as the childs of GOD.

Ultimately in the words of Swami Vivekananda......

We may represent love as a triangle, each of the angles of which corresponds to one of its inseparable characteristics. There can be no triangle without all its three angles; and there can be no true love without its three following characteristics.

The first angle of our triangle of love is that love knows no bargaining. Wherever there is any seeking for something in return, there can be no real love; it becomes a mere matter of shop keeping. The second angle of love represents fearlessness. So long as there is fear, it is not love. Love banishes all fear. A mother with her baby will face a tiger to save her child. The third or the apex is that love loves for the sake of love itself. Even the idea of object vanishes. Love is the only form in which love is loved. This is the highest abstraction and the same as the Absolute.

So friends let us unfold the true and unconditional Love present in us, first we send the signals; the tuned minds will receive after…!!!!!

3. Marriage:

This is one of the chief ancient Indian traditions which is collapsing now a day’s mainly by the weak youth of uncontrolled minds. Asalu istam unna lekunna cheskuntaru, tarvata alochistaru divorce gurunchi……

What I want to say is those who have a high goal to achieve will not think about it. Ippudunna youth lo chala mandi job’s lo settle aipoyi inka achieve cheyyadaniki em undadu, so life ni enjoy cheyyalanna reason tho marriage cheskuntunnaru. But everyone knows what is happening after these so-called marriages.

But nikoka high goal unte, aa goal lone nee happiness antha chuskunte, aa goal ni reach avvadanike ni life ni motham dedicate cheyyadanikaina ready aithe….Oh my friend…skip this marriage, it is not for the people like you.

Surely I can say that…. the people who have high goals to achieve before their marriage shall dedicate their life for the sake of their married life and the people who has the desire to reach the goal even after their marriage will surely success in not reaching them.

If we have something to achieve then let us go for it straightly, no cross routes please…. because our way is already difficult and why making it again complex…?

A girl who married to some guy….must accept his likes and dislikes and she must accept his whole family. Marriage is a package….buy one get five type……ante you have to accept all as same, u can’t say “I can’t do”…….

More over without freedom what can you achieve….?

We have born free… we must live free and we must die free…

Being free means not being away from the work. It’s just making ourselves to attach to our soul i.e. power of divinity and detaching with worldly pleasures.

And you may question, “ Naa goal doctor avvadame…so after becoming doctor I can marry kada ani……”

So tell frankly now…your goal is becoming a doctor or serving people through that profession…?

Make it clear and go in that way which will surely takes you to reach your goal.

So the boys/girls who have nothing to achieve can make their future to go in this way, i.e. married life. But you have to dedicate every moment of life in this way with you family…no compromise….Inka ee way lo velthe matram you have to compromise…anthe..!, inka vere vishalayu motham you have to throw out from your brain. You can see outside how many families are collapsing with misunderstanding. That’s why  make it clear..!!!

But how can you reach your ideal by attaching yourselves to bondages...we must make our way clear…Nenu okkate cheppagalanu niku enjoyments alanitivi kavalante niku natchina way lone vellotchu but goal reach avvadame ni way aithe……….go straightly……..

We must take Srinivasa Ramanujan and Mother Teresa as our ideals. Read them and you will know how they sacrificed their lives to achieve their goals and how they brought perfection to their achievements. Ideals are always there for us but if we want to reach those ideals then we must stick our lives to them.

4. Curiosity:

Manaku child like curiosity undali, but our curiosity must not become

childish. Tiny matters venta run chestam, asalu avi avasrame undadu manaki.

Alberty Einstein ni evaro adigaranta ayana genius ki karanamentani…Einstein ila reply itchadu…I am very curious so that I became Genius.

Swami Vivekananda wandering monk ga India motham thiruguthunnappude Sankrit language  nerchukunnadu inka Quran,bible ila world history maximum chadivesadu even encyclopedias kuda.

So mana goal ni reach avvadaniki and manam strong and healthy avvadaniki evevi avasaramo  avanni compulsory ga nerchukovalsindhe no matter how difficult they may be.  In case if the good is in hell we must go to hell and learn it.

“If you don’t have any goal... Life will take you to its own way, If you have something to achieve... You will take your life in your own way….”

In case verevi evanna nerchukovalanipiste ….avi mana journey ni disturb cheyyavu ani conform cheskunnake we must forward…but we have to remember always……….In case if  it belongs to heaven which makes us apart from our journey….let us unlearn it.

But remember curiosity lose aite... geniusity may move away from us. Khaliga unte matram let us learn something useful. But spiritual quest matram undalsinde…It has no end and as Indians we must have the curiosity to seek spirituality. Seeking spirituality in the sense seeking freedom…!

5. Devotion:

I think last week lo anukunta, sec’bad bonalu festival celebrations ni TV9 lo chusanu, ohhhhh adanta oka kind of devotion….abbo entha manchi devotionoooooo……adi devotion oo leka pothe weakness oo artham kaadu…! Entaina alanti kind of devotions ke kada breaking news vestaru…..!!

                     

Manalo bhi devotion untundi, kaani anni times lo raadu, eppuidaina Tirupathi ko or Kashi ko vellinappudu poduchukosthundi. Malli inti kochaka eppatilage yedhavannara yeadhavallage untam. Adi bhi mana thappu kaadu, society lo alane undi, we are just following anthe. Manaku chinnaptnunche em nerpicharante….inti dhagara puja cheste adi lower…..temple kelthe good, inka chala far way like Shiridi, Rameshwaram...etc ilanti vati kelthe adi high devotion ani.

Ee LKG standard vishayakanni manam unlearn cheyyalsinde. Where is the real devotion and how it can be done? Compulsory ga each and everyone chinnappatinunche telsukovalsina vishyam idi. But unfortunately mana great education system lo ilantivi emi undavu, intlo kuda evaru chepparu.

Nijanga devotion ante enti…tenkaya kottesi, edo ala pranams chesesi happy ga thinesi velthe aipothunda?......or ekkadikaina long trip lo oka 5 to 10 pilgrimages kellesi fast fast ga mokkesi, temples chusesi, edo cheppukodaniki evo konni photographs konesi vacheste aipothunda….aina akada manam 1 min kuda Bhakthi gurunchi discuss cheyyam, ilanti devotion cheste asalu bhakti antara telsina varevaraina?..asalu ivanni ignorant people chesevi kaada…malli educated people kuda ivve cheyyadam ante antha kanna foolish inkemaina untunda..?

First let us think what we can offer to God. Prapancham lo tenkaya , incense sticks, karpuram etc etc thappa God ki arpinchadaniki inkem undava….?....mana manasu kanna goppa thing edanna unda arpinchadaniki…?

Let us offer our mind itself to God as devotion. Ok good,but how it is possible?..morning levadam tho pate manaku oka manasu untundani telusthundi kada…so nidra nunchi levadanne God ki offer cheddam…next brushuing, eating, journey, work and so called things anni God ke offer cheste ela untundi. Manam elagu God ki offer chestunnam kabatti every moment lo entho pure ga untam. Let us offer our every single moment to God. I think ila cheste God grace so-called Pujaris kanna manapaine ekkuvaga untundi.

àEppudo 1 week ki okasari temple kelthe, 2 or 3 months ki okasari pilgrimages ki velthe God grace vasthundanukunte, mari every single moment ni God ki offer cheste entha grace vasthundi, it’ll be infinite….. ade kada manaku kavali.

Inka kondaru temples ki velli…nenu aa exam lo pass avvali, nenu IAS kottali, nenu doctor avvali ani, ala bless cheste oo 1000 coconuts offer chestamani, leka pothe Chilkuru Temple ki vachi 108 rounds thiruguthamani mokkukuntaru. Manaku edi ivvalo ayanaku teliyada……God ni ive ivvalani fix cheste manaku edi kavalo adi vasthunda?....Aina nuv offer chese bodi 1000 cocunuts ke nuvvadigindalla icheyadaniki ayanemanna nee chetilo bomma anukuntunnava?…. nuv 108 rounds thirigithe God anni istadante ni pakkana 1016 thirigevadu ready avathdu, mari vaadi parishtiti enti?

So friends let us pray for the sake of Prayer. Unconditional ga pray cheyydaniki try cheddam, mana work manam bolder ga cheddam, rest antha ayanake vadileddam.

àNenu chala mandini valla goals entani adigthe, people ki serve cheyyadame ultimate goal ani chala mandi reply itcharu. Knowingly or unknowingly it is a high degree of devotion to the God.

Let us discuss what actually it is…Serving people is ok but behind this what is there actually....emuntundante manam andarni God forms laga treat chesi manam chese profession dwara serve cheste… adi karma yoga avthundi. Karma yoga is a way which takes us nearer to the God. So manam as a a doctor , as a Bank manager or ae work chestu vunna aa work ni god worship ga chestu results, name, fame evi expect cheyyakunda vatchina danitho satisfy ayyi ade God Prasadam anukuni ala ala chestu chestu manalo unnna divinity ni manifest cheyadame Karma Yoga…..Ila prathi okkarini God forms laage chusi.. aevariki serve chestunna adi God ki serve chesinatte anukuni cheyyadame kada real Bhakthi..!!

So if we do this perfectly and sincerely surely it will take us nearer to the God makes us to touch the absolute…

Neither name nor fame nor money brings the devotion. It is true love makes us to realize the God.

àLord Buddha and Mother Teresa ni ideals ga thiskuni every being ni God anukuni serve chesamanukondi….nijanga mana kante ekkuvaga God ki aevaru natchutaru…?...inka inta kante ekkuavaga aayana mana nuchi em expect chestadu…?..ide kada true devotion ante…!!

6. Education:

Saraswati Devi Painting by Raja Ravi Varma

"Sarasvathi Namastubhyam, Varade Kaamaroopini
Vidyaarambham Karishyaami, Siddhir Bhavatu Mey Sada"

Meaning: Saraswati is the provider of boons and the one, who grants all our desires. As I begin my studies, I bow to the Goddess to help me in making it fruitful and make me successful in all my efforts.

Aksharabhyasam nunche kada mana education start ayyedi, akkada first manam raase word “OM”, tarvata migata vanni start avthayi. But mana schools lo eppudo OM ki check pettesaru. Mana education system mahima valla nakkuda OM ante ento monnati daka teliyaledu. Now I am getting the real effect in the mind through chanting ‘OM’ in the morning times.

Swami Vivekananda says OM is itself sound of God, the first sound in this universe is AUM (OM).

But today’s educational system gurunchi entha takkuva cheppukunte antha better emo..! Alas…! Teachers ke education dhikkuledu inka students sangati ela cheppali….Intlo parents books anni kontaru, maximum money spend chestaru…anthe inka vadilestaru, train aina terrorist ni kuda antha verify chesi satisfy aitene bayataku pampistemo…but ee parents school or college lo join chesesiu…inka vadilinchikuntaru, malli valla moham straight ga eppudu chustarante….veediki final results vachinapudu, lekapothe inkemaina yedhava pani chesinapudu…anthe..!! This is the training that has been giving to the students to make good citizens….donkey egg’em kadu…! Ilanti education lo chadavaka poina panikostaremo gani, chadivite matram sure ga paniki rakunda pothunnaru. So many examples are there.

At least minimum moral values kuda nerpinchatledu, inka ee system lo chadive variki respect ela ivvalo teliyadu, ela control lo undalo teliyadu, teachers tho and parents tho ela behave cheyyalo teliyadu…inka etc etc the list goes on……But okkati matram sure ga telustundi, adenandi……ade love….idi tappa inkem teliyaltedu. Ee word education system lo ki ae range lo impose aindante….baboy..! ide main theme aipoyindi. Asalu love ni wrong interpretation chesesi, girls/boys love lo padtame valla thakshana karthavyam aipoyindi. Oh God…..ide kada real degradation ante..!!

Inka western impact manapai ela padindante, asalu mana ancient Gurukula system oka joke anukune range lo padindi. Ee system ni impose chesindi britishers aite, penchi peddha chesindi matram manavalle. Asalu manalni enthaga degrade chesindante reality ki unreality ki difference kuda telsukolenantaga…total ga muchensidi. Enjoyments matrame life goal ane range ki marchesindi manalni…

Nakaite oka vishayam thalchukuntene body motham mandi pothundi. Asalu mana aksharabyasam OM thone start avthundi kada, but manam grow ayye kodhi ala ala marchipotham. Mana country lo mana schools lo inta powerful mantra, the sound of God...OM ni kaneesam chant kuda cheyincharu, mana eternal sound ni saitam marchipoyela chese text books ni, minimum values kuda nerpichaleni ee subjects ni, motham pack chesesi Hussain Sagar lo vesesina tappuledu.

Short ga cheppalante education system ni strong ga cheyyakunda…corruption ni, politics ni, suicides ni, unemployment ni, women pai jarige crimes ni etc etc ni control cheyyalanukunte, it’s just our foolishness.

For example…Crude oil ni ocean nunchi bayataku teestaru kada…crude oil nuche petrol as a product ga vastundi, diesel, kerosene, gas and etc all are byproducts. Okavela diesel or gas or kerosene baga raledanukondi, vatini entha purify chesina em labham…? Problem is in Crude oil…deenni pure cheste byproducts kuda pure gane vastayi.

Same ilaage our education system is like crude oil i.e. roots of our nation. Its product must be good Citizen and byproducts must be good development, evolution in technology, good health to the people and good outputs maximum everywhere. But corruption, politics, suicides and unemployment, ivanni jaruguthunnnapudu how to control the situation…? How many awareness programs will you conduct to control this problems…It is sure it’ll never be controlled by doing that. Then what is the remedy?..Go back to the roots….i.e. education system. Fault ikkada petteskoni evarevarno criticize cheste what is the use….?

We must repair the base. Without a firm base we are going on building floors. Where this problem leads to…leads to destruction of the society.

If it goes on in this way, surely society will fall in severe destruction. But if society has to survive…then this educational system must be moralized and strengthened to topnotch.    

I want to share one of my worst experiences here. Ee year lo maa college annual day roju chala enjoy chesaru ma friends as final year students. Ela ante…Pricipal speech istunnapudu banda scoldings thittadam….Vice principal speech itchinappudaite inka aa place anta ratcha ratcha cheyadam etc. Bad thing entante I also there in that batch. Girls dance performences istunte inka  veella condition ela undo…inka nenu cheppalenu, you can imagine the situation. Ma fiends lo kothamani already hot drinks tho full aipoyi unnaru. Inka alanti situation lo as final year student who have studied in engg college as back benchers…ela untaro you can understand the scene. Evvaru cheppina agatle asalu. Emanna ante ma reply ento telsa..? ‘ippudu kakapote inkepudu enjoy chestam sir…’

Damn…! Lecturers ni principal ni even management ni kuda thitteste thappa enjoy ledanta…From these kind of students what sort of national deveopment one can expect…?..Inka examples cheppukuntu pote time ae saripodu. I think each student who studies in today’s colleges have his own experiences about the so-called worst enjoyments ….!

I think you can understand manam ae range lo degrade aipoyamo..? one word lo cheppalante….We hypnotized…. anthe.

Inka cheppukuntu pothe paniki malina examples chalane unnnay but inka enni rojulu debates pettukuntu, dicuss chestu undi podam…?...Nenu ee vishayanni chala mandi friends ki cheppanu…but valla reply was not as I expected, endukate they are feeling that they has no right to do great things, infact villem anukuntunnarante..”aaa… naku ee education system ni anetantha scene ekkadundi..” ani..

papam poor people, under estimating themselves as lilliputs…!

But mana coutry lo ekkadaina educational system lo revolution vaste daaniki nenu kuda oka reason avthanu. Manam elagu loss aipoyam, aite ayyam... but let us give fresh water to our succeeders i.e. to our next generation people.

7. Situations Around:

Last week anukunta maa town lo traffic jam ayyindi …reason entane youth annamata…actual ga aa roju bandh pettesaru…asalu ee youth ki aevadu enduku emchestunnado assalu artham kaadu, asalu nijalu pattinchukoru, sheep fold laga andaru bayalderatharu. Ilanti youth valla emanna development jaruguthunda…?...ok ee matter vadileddam.

Vere angle lo alochiddam. Ekkado evado money or something corruption chestadu. Inka TV lo breaking news padatame chalu..adedo pedda goppa vishayamannattu paniki malina debates pettukuntaru. Asalu ilanti debates valla emanna jariginda…inka mundu emanna jaruguthunda?

Asalu manam high way lo travel chestunnamanukondi, pakkaku chala vere ways kuda untay. Manaku mana way telsu…inka vere vati gurunchi alochistama?

So ela mana goal manam reach avvali anede mana mind lo undali kada….. avunu boss society lo chala jaruguthayi, ni influence emanna work out aite velli bold ga evil ni face chey…pothe pothaam, manam poyyinantha matrana ee world ki vache nastam emi ledu. But intlo kurunchi society lo jarige anni matters gurunchi alochinchi mind ni kharab cheskovadam valla emanna change vathunda…?...O my friend society lo ilanti problems manam puttaka mundu unnay, ippudu vuntay, ika future lo kuda untay…nuv ee society loki vachav kabatti emanna change cheyyagaligithe cheyii anthe kani oorike matladatam valla upayogam ledu.

Inka kondaru great people untaru, valla discussions anni God paine untay. Okadantadu God ilage unatadani, inkokadu vadiki ishtamochina edo oka name cheppi He is only God antadu. Asalu vellaki em telsani matldatharo artham kaadu.

Holy Mother Sarada Devi Says….”Give up this dry discussion, this hodge-podge of philosophy. Who has been able to know God by reasoning? Even sages like Suka and Vyasa are at best like big ants trying to carry away a few grains of sugar from a large heap.”

So oorike matladukovadam valla God ni emanna artham cheskogalama?

Inkoka friend antadu ee world lo okkate religion undalani, inkoka brother antadu okkate country undalani….My friend, asalu ee universe entha…?....andulo mana country entha….mana country lo mana state entha….mana state lo manam unna place entha….aa place lo unna nuvventha…. neeeeee  understanding capacity entha……?....so manam ae matters discuss chesete mana goal ki help avthay ani alochiste chala better kada.

Andaru work ni enduku pressure tho chestaro artham kadu, enjoy chestu cheyyalera, Charli chaplin cinema chustunattu ga, Close friend tho matladuthunnattu ga, Birla mandir chuttu pradakshinalu chestunattu ga, Indira park lo roam chesinattu ga………. Cheste anthe “you will become the master of your work”….

Kondariki vallu chese work assalu natchadu….alantivallu cheyagaligindi okkate..

Nuv chese work niku istham ledu…then “change it”..kudarleu…leave it…inka kudaraka pothe…”accept it”…select only one among three… anthe..anthakante ekkuva evaru em cheyyaleru.

Kondarantaru naku God pai nammakam ledani….nammakam lekapothe vadiley…evaranna force chestunnara ninnu…niku nammakam undakapothe God ki emanna nashtama….nuvve kada loser..!!

è Emadhyana criticize cheyyadam oka passion aipoyindi.Andarni crticise chestam, ok…. Asalu manam emanna manchi chestunnama ee society ki..?...oka friend Gandhi lo evo konni flaws chusi ika criticize cheyyadam start chestadu. Oka manishi manakante great ante manam assalu thattukolem kada inka athanlo mistakes vethakadaniki bayalderatham. Aina oka manishi great ainantha matrana ayana andariki natchala..?.....alochinchali..!

Asalu manam mana heart paina cheyyesukoni “yes I am correct and I am doing Right” ani cheppagaligentha conviction unda ?….Oka terrorist chepathadu…yes I am terrorist ani….heart pai cheyyoskoni mari chepthadu “Yes I am here to kill everyone” ani….but manam antha conviction ga “yes I am a humanist and I am here to serve the people” ani cheppagalama…..?

Andariki untundi…time dorikite ee  terrorists------dash dash gallani champeyyalani…..but adi elaagu kudaradu, appudem cheyagalam..? okkati matram cheyyagalam, mana chuttupakkana unna youth evaraina terrorists ga marakunda cheyyagalam…

So friends mana pakkana jarige bad things emanna mana influence lo unte bold ga change cheyyadaniki try cheddam, rest God ki vadileddam. But anavasaranga mind ni disturb cheskunte deniki paniki rakunda pothaam.

In this situation I want to remind a quote of Swami Vivekananda….

“Live in this world…but don’t let this world to live in you”….

And Sri Ramakrishna says…

“Boat water pai undali kaani water boat lo unda kudadhu”

I can say only one thing….Follow the high way….traffic won’t interrupt you but if you chose local ways you shall be halted always in reaching your destination….

8. Basic Truths:

I discuss this aspect with a small part of poem as taking as a beginning that was written by the 16^th century poet Surdas, who was one of India’s saints and composers…

“One piece of iron in the image of the temple

And another, the knife in the hand of the butcher

But when they touch the philosopher’s stone

Both alike turn to gold!

One drop of water is in the sacred Jamuna,

And another is found in the ditch of the road

But when they both fall into the Ganges,

Both alike become Holy.”

What we can understand from the above poem is…. a man who may be a sinner or sincere…when after he knows truth…He merges into the God.

Manaku truths ee age lo assalu arthamavvavu, but 60 age ki vellaka melliga artham avthuntayi. Asalu enti ee jeevitham ani, poni nuvvu telsukunnave anuko, daanivalla 1 paisa use kuda undadu. Aa time lo nee matalu evvaru vinaru…inka nuv eppudu pothava ani chuse valle ekkuva.

So enduku aa time varaku wait cheyyadam .Let us know in this very young age, ipude telsukunte we can become some more better than earlier kada…!!

àWhat is the boldest truth in this world…?

Adi Shankara Charya says like this..

“O fool..! you are not this body, you’re not even this mind….your are not that five sense organs…..your are not even that vital air, prana…….but you are the pure-conscious-bliss. You’re a part of Brahman and above all… you are with that one Brahman(the almighty).”

So how to understand this…He again says...

“Knowing that I am different from the body, I need not neglect the body. It is a vehicle that I use to transact with the world. It is the temple which houses the Pure Self within.”

Goal of Human life is Realization of God, it is not only for monks or someone who goes to Himalayas….but everyone can realize him through  his work. This is the Ultimate truth one can find in this world.

Manakelagu intha bold truth understand ayyetantha bolder mind ledu, so get into the basic truths.

Manam enno kinds of news chustam kada TV9 lo…akkada tsunami vatchindani, inko place lo floods vatchayani, inko place lo cyclone vatchindani….inko place lo terrorists attack chesarani……….etc etc enno kind of news daily vintune untam…kani manam eppudaina alochinchama, asalu ivanni ela jaruguthunnayi ani and who is the reason for all these ani………

Asalu ivanni evari command valla jaruguthunnayi….maybe it is good or bad but who is the source of all these things ?

Some higher power must act on this universe and it must be the reason for all things…and we the Indians already proved that…..Yes He is God ani……….

If He is the higher of all beings then what can happen without His involvement…?

We believe that He is God, the creator of this Universe…….then what can happen without the intension of God. Can an ant move a nano meter of space without his order?

Ramana Maharshi says…

“He is our past….He is our present and He will be our future…”

Antha Bhagavad mayam. Now think where you are and where I am…..We do, we speak and we think but behind our actions, words and thoughts, who is there…He is there and he is the God...

Manamemo mana limited mind tho God ila untadu, ala untadu…na God ae goppa ani antuntam kada…..asalu God ni manam em artham cheskogalam?

Sri Ramakrishna Says…"Men often think they have understood Brahman fully. Once an ant went to a hill of sugar. One grain filled its stomach. Taking another grain in its mouth it started homeward. On its way it thought, 'Next time I shall carry home the whole hill.'

So idi mana level of thinking…now you have got some idea about Him...

àEe world lo every second evevo jaruguthayi. Manamemo people are doing all these things anukuntam…kaani who is playing actually?

Swami Vivekananda in his final days says…

“There come moments in our life, when we feel our play is fin­ished, and we want to rush to the Mother. Then all our toil here will be of no value; men, women, and children—wealth, name, and fame, joys and glo­ries of life—punishments and successes—will be no more, and the whole life will seem like a show. We shall see only the infi­nite rhythm going on, end­less and pur­pose­less, going we do not know where. Only this much shall we say; our play is done.”

àTruth is…. it is all God’s play…..What we can understand from is…we din’t born, so we never die, it is our body that has so many births and deaths. Edanna high purpose kosam mana temporary body ni aa matram sacrifice cheskolemaaa?

What is our duty. Our duty is not to believe fatalism here please. We are the creators of our own destiny. Past lo emanna jaragani, future lo em jaragali that we can decide by our own thinking at now itself…anthe..!!

àEvvaru chusina naku happiness kavali, money vadhu antaru eppudo okappdu. But do you know that the happiness that comes from external is temporary..!….aina okariki happiness kavalante inkokaru thyagam cheyyalsinde..So ee worldly things nunchi manaku emanna happiness vaste adi compulosary ga vere valladhe……if one has got happiness in the sence somebody has lost it….external happiness is like waves in the ocean, it continues with up and down levels…if happiness goes to up level….sadness comes to low level…..inthe…ilage transfer avthune untundi.

But where is the real happiness comes from?  Real happiness is that which  comes from our internal soul. That is our own and it’s our own nature..adi entha bayataku vaste antha increase avthuntundi. That is the real happiness which comes from realization. This eternal bliss comes without disturbing any one’s happiness in this universe.

àAdemanna avani manam sincere ga work cheyyadaniki practice cheddam. Mana work chusi God stun aipovali. We should not worry about results. Because He is the reason for everything. If we succeed, that is his wish and if we fail, even that is also his wish. But remember… believing God must not become our weakness….It must be our strength, because believing God itself is like believing in our own strength.

àMy friends…let us become the instruments of God. Swami Vivekananda was like that. Lord Buddha, Mother Teresa, Srinivasa Ramanujan, Ramana Maharshi and the great people all are like the instruments of God. My friend oka instrument leka poinantha matrana nothing loss. In the place of that another instrument will come. But let us be the instruments of God. Let our work pleases God. Let our work be the work of God.

9.Our Duty:

Ee aspect lo I am very small to talk but I’ll try to figure out my opinions.

Sometimes mana parents ae manaku chala oppose chestaru, like our goal vishayamlo…

Valla bhayam entane…inni rojulu chillara gani laga unde, ipudu veedenti edo chesestadani bayalu deruthunnadu, ani bhayapadotchu.

Leka pothe mana paina nammakam unna sare manam valla nuchi dooranga velli potamemo nanna bhayam undotcho, leka pothe mis understanding problem undotchu, relatives, neighbors’, friends ila reason emaina avani, problem emanna avani……..It is our duty to clear it and go forward but not to compromise…..Compromise ayyava History reader  avthav, avvakunda muduki vellava History maker avthav.

Ultimate ga Parents ni badha pettadakunda mana explaination tho vallani oppinchadame mana duty. Vallaku manapai enno hopes untay even though explain them , convince them with love and devotion, ….parents ni convince cheste inka manalni evaru stop cheyagalaru kada.

It is our duty to make them happy at any cost, even mana presence thone happy situation create avvali, may be after 20 years tharvataina sare ,vallu mana nuchi em expect chestaro adi ivvalsinde like love, respect etc, nuv India,US or Australia etc, ekkadunna sare, nuv child ga unappudu entha affection chupinchavo same repeat cheyyalsinde….otherwise whatever you may achieve its nothing for them….for your parents… you are ultimate but not your achievements...

Ee vishayam lo aevari decision vallade, because many people may have many situations to come across, so it’s your duty to solve it…Intha kanna ee vishayam lo I am very little to talk.

10. Enquiry:

Student: Why few people only like Swami Vivekananda and Ramana Maharshi were very keen in knowing about God?  Vallake enduku alanti desire kalingindi, nakenduku God ni chudalanna eagerness ledu?

Master: Oh my child, this is not only your problem, it’s the problem of devotees and people and it is the problem of even priests, they pray to God but not interested in seeing Him.

Now coming to the point, just 3 hours cinema goppaga anipistene, autographs kosam directors and actors venta padi ivvaka pote chala disturb avthav kada, inka fan associations ani, avani ivani ededo chesestav kada valla gurunchi…..evo konni matches lo centuries chesinanta matrana players ni okkasaraina kalavalani pitchekki pothundi kada .!.....

Nuv just human creativity ke intha excite aipothe…..mari creativity ke creativity aina, greatness ke greatess aina. Asalu ee universe ni create chesina, niku naku and whole world ke source aina, oka pedda mystery aina God ni telsukovalani anpinchadamlo vintha emundi..! God ni telsukunnaka inka telsukodaniki em miguluthundi..!

Last Word:

à Lastly I can say only one thing…

Nuv meditation cheyyadam start chey -- cinemas, gadgets and physical so-called enjoyments anni daani mundu dust laga kanpistay.

Nuv smiling face maintain chey...ni mere presence thone misery lo unnavallu kuda valla worries marchipoyela chey-- niku face washes,  face creams avasaram ledu.

Nuv sweet words matladu-- inka niku perfume avasaram ledu. Ni words ae fragnace ga maripothundi.

Nuv inspiring work chey-- neekinka money gurunchi alochinchalsina avasaram ledu. Nilanti valla kosame kada adeppudu wait chestuntundi.

Inka nijanga….. what is the Truth that beyond this world….telsukovalante Go back to our ancient scriptures, which we have been keeping in our Puja Rooms from so many years onwards.

If in this world a bundle of books are present which can only say about strength—then those must be Bhagavad Gita and Upanishads. It is our duty to read them daily to become perfect in our life.

Paina cheppina vishayalanni….na mind lo clouds laga thiruguthuthunnay daily….so I presentd here….I am means-- one fellow from 120 crores of our population, …. So idanta li8… just take them as opinions from your best friend.

Lastly I want to present here a quote of Swami Vivekananda

“All the vanities in the world are transient including our lives, but they alone live who live for others and the rest are more dead than alive.”

Thank you very much to you and to your patience for reading my post.

Be smile always, make yourself happy and make your parents happy. With your mere presence make the entire environment happy. With your sweet words let the people with you forget all the misery, with your happy face let all the faces around you forget all the pressures.

This is the short way to Ultimate.
