Japp at Home/Temple/Sitting alone
When we are repeating the name of God we must be conscious that we are repeating the name of one who is within us, who is one there being and existence we must keep this central fact in our mind when taking this name. Then the practice will gradually make us aware of his existence within us.
At the beginning we are not aware of this, but we intellectually accept the idea that God dwells within us and we take his name. The Association with him is there mentally and it grows into an experience when we actually feel his presence by constantly hammering into the mind that God whom we aspire two see is within us and that the name we repeat is his name.
The object of repeating the name is to purify the mind and thereby at the awareness of him within us.
As long as one is fit and able to earn and support one’s family, all the Kith & Kin and dependents attached are affectionate to him. As soon as one becomes old and infirous no one cares to enquire of his well-being even in one’s own home. Earning man at home needs expects more care from his family but regret to this subject . I observed this lacking in some why this human’s don’t understand? Sometimes still alive and unanswered !

We were born to succeed no to fail..
Everyone of our thoughts has a certain power on our body...
Unless you change how you are, you will always have what you've got...
fear comes when we violate our conscience..
Competence cannot cause passion but passion can always develop competence..
Be passionate in whatever you do today

OM NAMO NARAYANA
We are the greatest thing on this earth.....struggling conquering in this life's battlefield....absolutely!
This is a fact of life that no one can avoid. In the end though, once you have attained success you will thank the thorns along the way for they have built your character and equipped you for success. Stay strong!

Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strengths. When you go through hardships and decide not to surrender, that is strength...the greatest things in life cannot be acquired easily needs the commitment...some sacrifice and stregth to withstand...
Prayer is deep gratitude within....
Krishna is totally nothing but celebration of life as he wishes for all of us on this heavenly earth... RADHA IS THE REVERSE OF DHARA... GOING AGAINST THE ROUTINE-THE TREND. JOURNEY TOWARDS THE SOURCE.KRISHNA GIVES THE PATH TO THE SOURCE-THE ORIGIN. THAT'S RADHA.

Press on. Obstacles are seldom of same size tomorrow as of today...
"Never be depressed seeing the obstacles on your path. You have the lamp of faith with you. Light it."

Miracles begin to happen when we give as much energy to our dreams as we do to our fears....
“Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm.”
moksha ramaraksha
V all agree that GOD is in everyone and everything. Love is our real nature... we must realize this. YES, Hell is a vile, abusive, disgusting concept. God buys love & loyalty with the threat of torture? A Gandhi, Teresa, Mandela would never... thought of torturing their enemies, whereas a Saddam, Hitler, Stalin ..... This is the company that God keeps?
Karma & Rebirth is the better way, the non-violent way. We are not punished, nor are we simply forgiven because we begged enough.
We are held accountable for our actions, We are reborn, given another chance to make amends.ramaraksha Moksha is EARNED, not given, and that is the essential difference between Moksha & Heaven.
One can beg for Gods mercy, grovel like a dog, and then be allowed to taste the pleasures of a flesh-pot heaven, but one cant beg for Moksha, because Enlightenment is acquired thru knowledge. Even if the Teacher takes pity on a student who turned in a bad paper, and passes him, it doesnt mean the student had suddenly acquired the knowledge. Reach for the Higher goal, reach for Moksharamaraksha

failure
When you fail 'try, try and try again.' Success take dedication and practice.
If you fail, fail and fail again, try something else. We can't succeed at everything.
tough indeed ,but required at times isn't it?
Failure a natural phenomenon. It carries a treasure of invaluable experience. Success and failure are two facets of the same coin.
SOME NEEDS A SIMPLE SWIFT KICK..
The real mistake is to stop trying. Experience is the name we give to our mistakes. Failure is a teacher if we have the right attitude. Failure is a detour, not a dead end. There isn’t one person on this planet that doesn’t experience misfortune—we all do.
Failure is a part of the learning process...teach us how to take turns and reach success

SELF IMPROVEMENT
There is a common misconception that failure is a bad thing. Many people who fail at something are often called losers, but if those people learn from their losses, they are actually winners.
Failure teaches people that they are just like everybody else, and that success is gained from hard work and determination. When people fail at something important in their lives and decide to try again, they tend to regain their confidence and persist with great resilience.
The road to success is never an easy one. There are several obstacles, and you are bound to fall sooner or later. . But success lies in being able to get up every time you fall. That’s a critical life skill. And it’s the habit of all successful people.
Many of the best lesson people learn in life come from the mistakes they have made and the knowledge they gained from their mistakes. In life, there are no mistakes only lessons . Examples of failure being the best teacher are often seen in business matters ,in sports and even in relationships
People often go into relationships knowing very little about one another. This sometimes leads to disappointment and sometimes they unintentionally hurt each other's feelings. This situation could have been avoided had they taken more time to get to know each other.
Many people spend a lot of time in relationships that do not lead anywhere When the relationship ends, the people involved are often bitter and feel that they have wasted their time, but they have actually learned one of life's greatest lessons.
In fact, failure is a mechanism created to force people into figuring out where they went wrong and then striving to succeed the next time they are faced with such a dilemma.
No one can win every time, and if people can learn to accept their mistakes and move on, they will also realize how strong they truly are.
When success is reached through suffering, the resulting honor is far greater than that of just being handed an award.
Learning the hard way is probably the best way to learn in any situation.
Here is a story to illustrate this .
SEL
THE mother GIRAFFE MAKES HER CHILD SUFFER
The mother giraffe gives birth standing up, so the first thing that happens to a new-born giraffe is a fall of about two meters.
Still dazed, the baby tries to stand up on its four legs, but its mother behaves very strangely: she gives the baby giraffe a gentle kick which sends it sprawling. It tries to get up and is again knocked down.
This process is repeated several times, until the new-born giraffe is too exhausted to stand. At that point, the mother kicks it again, forcing it to get to its feet. After that, she does not push the baby giraffe over again.
The explanation is simple: in order to survive predators, the first lesson a giraffe must learn is to get to its feet quickly.
The mother’s apparent cruelty finds support in an Arabic proverb: “Sometimes, in order to teach something good, you have to be a little rough.”
Learning to win in life is quite like learning to ride a bicycle.As you start to ride, you might fall and get bruised.It doesn’t matter. You need to get back up and continue to ride. Fall one more time? Get back up again. That’s all it takes. Learn to get back up every time you fall.
Next time you find a friend or a parent kicking you, don’t get upset with them. Like the mother giraffe, they may only be trying to teach you one of life’s most important lessons
SWAMI
Swami : When there is an ocean of pleasure within the heart then small rivers of sensual perception that come into our life, do not really elate us or disturb us. The opposite also holds true, naturally...

NEVER FAIL TO MAKE AN ATTEMPT.
A friend was passing the elephants, she suddenly stopped, confused by the fact that these huge creatures were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg. No chains, no cages. It was obvious that the elephants could, at anytime, break away from the ropes they were tied to but for some reason, they did not. My friend saw a trainer nearby and asked why these beautiful, magnificent animals just stood there and made no attempt to get away.
“Well,” he said, “when they are very young and much smaller we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it’s enough to hold them. As they grow up, they are conditioned to believe they cannot break away. They believe the rope can still hold them, so they never try to break free.” My friend was amazed. These animals could at any time break free from their bonds but because they believed they couldn’t, they were stuck right where they were.
Just like these elephants, many of us were brought up with a false self-limiting belief of some sort – ‘I’m not good enough’ or ‘why try if I am not going to make it’, or ‘success, riches & freedom are for the chosen ones’, ‘entrepreneurship is not for me’, ‘I’m only destined to do a job I hate & pay the bills’ and many more versions of this same belief that underestimates the capability, talent, and potential within us.

ATTITUDE
The attitude with which we perform an action is very
significant. Lord Krishna advises Arjuna in the Bhagavad
Gita to perform actions for the sake of yajna, sacrifice, free
from attachment. When we perform our actions
Krishna has made a promise in the Gita that when we
remember Him and dedicate all our work to Him, whatever
we need, will be supplied, and whatever has to be protected,
will be protected. If one acts only for money or to gain
popularity, then it becomes a profession, not a yajna.
GOOD TO GOOD EVIL TO EVIL
" Though it might be absolutely true that tit for tat is a fair play;
But let's be swift in helping and in revenging let's try to delay."
AS WE HAVE TO PAY BACK WITH THE GRATIFICATION TO THOSE WHO HAVE DONE GOOD UPON US, THE PRESCRIPTION OF THE ‘VEDAS’ HAS SERMONZED THAT, ‘ RETURN GOOD TO GOOD AND RETURN EVIL TO EVIL.’
BETWEEN THESE TWO, ONE THING CAN STILL COME, AND THAT IS COMPROMISING , IF WE CAN SETTLE THE MATTER BY COMPROMISING ,THE RESULT WOULD BE MUCH BETTER.
AS SRI MOHAN DAAS KRAMCHAND GANGHI, HAS PREACHED THAT, “ IF WE SAY ‘ AN EYE FOR AN EYE ‘ THEREFORE, THE WHOLE WORLD WOULD BE BLIND.” WHAT DOES IT MEAN ?
IT VERY CLEARLY MEANS, ‘ IF SOMEONE SLAPS YOU ON THE RIGHT CHEEK, PLACE YOUR LEFT CHEEK BEFORE HIM.’ ACCORDING TO GANDHI’S TECHINIQUE , IF THE SLAPPER IS QUITE CIVILIZED, HE WOULD KNEEL DOWN AND ASK FORGIVENESS.
BUT IF THE RESULT COMES OPPOSITE, AND THE SLAPPER THINKING THAT THE VICTIM ENJOYED HIS SLAP, AND IF HE SLAPS MORE SEVERELY THAN BEFORE, THEREFORE , WHAT WOULD BE THE CONSEQUENCE ?
NOW ! IT IS THE TIME TO TURN THE PAGE OF SRIMAD BHAGAVAD GETA. WHAT HAS LORD KRISHNA HAS PREACHED IN CHAPTER 2, VERSE 33. IT GOES LIKE THIS….” ATHA CET TVAM IMAM DHARMYAM SANGRAMAM NA KARISYASI TATAH SVA- DHARMAM KIRTIM CA HITVAA PAAPAM AVAAPSYASI. “ { If however , you do not perform your religious duty of fighting, then you will certainly incur sins for neglecting your duties and thus lose your reputation as a fighter. }
If your journey ends without a result, you must surrender yourself before him, under the shower of HIS umbrella , everyone would be led to the righteous destination, and when you reach the end of your wit, let you be led by HIM as well.
If our most correct duty is to fight for the truth, therefore, we must render our service to save our :- religion, law and order, country etc. not a second should be wasted, even if we have to die for saving the good things, let’s be the ‘MARTYR’ than living by overwhelming the evil deeds and go to hell.
NOW ! LET’S SEE WHAT OUR SRI ‘ CHANDAKYA – NITI – DARPAND WILL SAY ABOUT THIS !
HE SAYS IN HIS PRINCIPLES, IN CHAPTER 17 VERSE 2….. “ KRITE PRATIKRITIM KURYAADHIMSANE PRATI PRATIHINSANAM, TATRA DOSHO NA PATATI DUSHTE DUSTAM SAMAA CARAYT. “ { If we are done good by others , we too , we must return goodness on them. If we are hurt by others , the same kind of reaction must be answered, there is no sin in rendering the service as others have done upon us, because , the answer for goodness should be good, vice-versa the answer of evilness should be evil .}
ONE WISE SAID……….. “ DO UNTO OTHERS , AS YOU WOULD LIKE OTHERS DO UNTO YOU ! “
ANOTHER WISE SAID..” DON’T DO UNTO OTHERS, AS YOU WOULD LIKE OTHERS DO UNTO YOU, BECAUSE THE TASTE MIGHN’T BE THE SAME.”
EXAMPLES: (1). DEMOLISH THE RELIGIOUS SCRIPTURE OF OTHER NATIONS, BECAUSE THEY HAVE DEMOLISHED OURS.
(2). DON’T DEMOLISH THE SCRIPTURE OF OTHER NATIONS, BECAUSE THE TASTE MIGHTN’T BE THE SAME.
WE HINDUS ARE ALWAYS IN THE POSITION OF COMPROMISING,WE ALWAYS GIVE THE SIDE TO THE ONE WHO IS TRUE IN CONSTRUCTION AND ZERO TOLERANCE TO THE ONE WHO IS DESTRUCTIVE. AND ONE LOSS OF RELIGIOUS SCRIPTURE IS INTOLERABLE, IF WE TOO RETURN THE SAME ACTION TO OTHERS, THERE WON’T BE ANY DIFFERTIATION BETWEEN GOOD AND EVIL, NEVERTHELESS, WE WOULD BE IN THE LOSS OF TWO RELIGIOUS SCRIPTURES.
LET’S RETURN GOOD FOR EVIL, BECAUSE ‘TRUTH’ ALWAYS PREVAILS. WE MAY BE ABLE TO LIVE WITHOUT RELATIVES, BUT WITHOUT THE TORCH OF THE RELIGEOUS SCRIPTURES, LIFE WUOLD BE NOT ONLY TOO DARK BUT IT WOULD BE TOO HARD TO SUSTAIN AND EXIST . ( LIVE AND LET LIVE.)

SWAMI SIVANANDA SAYS
A man took too much of ghee during a feast. He became ill. His digestive functions had become paralysed. He went to a doctor. The doctor said to him: "Please bring me one tola of ghee; I will prepare the medicine and give you."
The sick man was wonder-struck; "O doctor, I am suffering only from the effects of too much of ghee-drinking. Why do you wish to add to the trouble?"
"My dear man, please bring the ghee. I will show you what to do with it. The same ghee is your medicine now."
The sick man brought the ghee. The doctor added a few other ingredients to it and administered it in the proper dose. The man was cured. His appetite returned to him.
Similarly, by Karma is man bound to this wheel of birth and death. Egoistic action done with desire for fruits brings about rebirth with all its attendant miseries. The man approaches a saint for a cure. The saint prescribes service, work or Karma again! Can work itself snap the bonds of work? Yes. If the ingredients of selflessness and egolessness are added to it; and if it is done, not for the purpose of securing rewards here or hereafter, but for the purpose of curing one of the dire disease of birth and death. Then it becomes Nishkama Seva that will release man from this cage of Samsara.

TOLERANCE
Tolerance
It is an accepted psychological axiom that only those who have hatred for themselves in their hearts project the hatred on the world. Such hatred is self-hatred, and comes out of an inability to accept one's own qualities. In the widest understanding of the word, tolerance implies that everything has a place in the universal hierarchy, and it is the understanding of this basic truth of creation that tolerance reveals. Tolerance thus reveals the correct perspective in the universal scheme of things

AYYAPPA MUDRA
MEANING OF CHIN -MUDRA THAT AYYAPPA SHOWS IN HIS HAND.
In a self realized person all the thoughts are under his control. He recognizes his divinity as inscribed in the Sabarimala temple "ThatTvam Asi", which means "You are that supreme Consciousness".
This is the meaning of chin-mudra that ayyappa shows. Little finger represents body, ring finger represents mind (that is why in wedding ring is worn in ring finger or mind finger because the event is the joining of two individuals are mind level) . The middle finger is the senses and the fore finger is the “I” or ego thought. The thumb is the consciousness finger or intellect finger without which the other fingers are useless. The forefinger is always found associated with the other three fingers and when it transcends them it merges with the thumb to form a circle which indicates that this consciousness has no beginning and end. This is the thatva of chin mudra that Ayyappa shows and tells his devotees to achieve in life

FREE SIX DOCTORS
Ever heard of SIX FREE DOCTORS, whose advice is most crucial to a healthy life style? but we do not pay any heed to it ? as there are no visiting fees! Therefore their value is unimportant!
These are :
1. SUNLIGHT:
The sun says, spend a little time with me while reading, exercising, listening to music, meditating, even chatting up with friends - do it with me! Just you and me, cause I am your BEST friend.
Physically and metaphorically Sunlight is beneficial to all. Giving light, its best, to everyone, regardless of caste or creed.
2. WATER:
6-8 glasses of water in a day, replenishes all the liquids of the body. And H2o is oxygen to every cell in the body. Our body thrives on fresh water. It is the greatest detoxifying agent ever produced. And it is FREE!
3. AIR:
Your Prana Shakti - Life breath! Just being aware of your breathing for a little while , invigorates every cell in the body.
PRANAYAM ( deep breathing ) - is a must, to exhale all carbon and take in all oxygen, in a clean and open environment. It is a luxury today to breathe fresh air. Do not neglect this. Holding a breath and then releasing it, clears all the diseases in the body.
4. DIET:
After consuming 3 of the 5 natures elements (Ether, Water, Air, Earth & Fire) get to the natures produce. Vegetables & fruits. The Lord has provided plenty of choice. No need to be a Vegan, but the amount of cleansing the vegetables and fruit does to the system is amazing! The enzymes thus produced protect every cell in the body. Proteins are present in lentils and yogurt too. Too much meat takes away 70% of the energy to digest it. So be moderate. We are basically herbivores and not carnivorous - by nature.
5. EXERCISE:
How can anything be consumed without the corresponding arrangement to digest the same? The body must move. Walking can be a good form of exercise! But stretching the body is very essential. Starting from bed , when waking up and then being physically vibrant through the day. Household work is NOT an exercise, it’s a chore! Exercise in a proper state of mind and not under stress or duress. Relaxation is the reason for exercising a healthy state of mind. Exercise alone and not rushing!
6. REST:
Last but not the least the 6th doctor is REST!
None of the above is possible without enough sleep, relaxation and rest from meetings a deadline! Rest is the most important factor which gives impetus to all other 5! So do not neglect it. Resting with beautiful, positive and creative thoughts is of course always recommended. Not under sleeping pills or pain killers.
If you have negative thoughts, keep slogging, so you do not have the time to nurture them. When resting have all the positive thoughts, nourishing thoughts, the foremost being Thanksgiving to the Lord, followed by love and compassion towards all the relationships you encounter - choicelessness in love. You are love incarnate. You cannot help but love. No likes or dislikes in love. "SAMTHA BHAV" Equilibrium! Equanimity! Equipoise!
Try it , we are all trying it. See the results and then thank all the 6 Free doctors!
