• Repression of body and mind is useless
• Repression must be without internal
craving – in one word ‘Desirelessness’
• It must be without any regrets
• Ultimately repression must yield to
sublimation

Who Carves Our Destiny ?
Blame not, any one for your fall !
You are the cause of your success or failure !!
No one lifts you up, except your own SELF !!!
Don’t fall pray to vice and floor your SELF.
You are your best friend and worst enemy too !
If fallen, ricochet with equal vigour - like a ball

Who is the Real Ascetic ?
¢ Who works ever without an eye on the fruit,
¢ Who performs ever all ordained duty,
¢ Though he is in the thick and thin of life,
He is the real sanyasin and true yogi –
Not the recluse of Self-denial, away in forests.

® If we work ever without any second thought
® If we regard our duty as upper most
® If we are composed and never distracted
Already Taken Care Of
Such a single-pointed, unwavering and
concentrated effort, sure, ensures us to
attain and retain the fruits of actions.

Who is the Real Learned ?
The Ocean has no difference in feeling
for its different waves – similarly an
Ego-less man will cast an equal eye on
A scholar with humility
An outcast and immoral man
All animals alike
Certainly the number of titles that decorate
the end of our name is no yard stick

The Caveat
What ever the noble and great men do,
the common man takes it as an example
So, men of character have the onus on them to
1. Reflect human dignity in all actions
2. Create high bench-marks of virtue
3. Be the Gold-Standard for others to follow

Forsake the Treble
Kaama or intense desire
Krodha or rage and wrath
Lobha or clinging & craving
Ravana asura is best negative example
These are the three gate-ways for
Downfall ! So desist from doom !!

Perfect Devotion leads one to where ?
Unflinching Faith and unswerving devotion
The substantial hardware required is Bhakti
Identifying ourselves totally with the duty
and intense love for the Self within is Bhakti
Then, one actually knows who he is !
Perceives intimately what he is !!
Will be able to enter / experience his SELF !!!

What the intellect accepts, the heart doesn’t appreciate
What the heart craves for, the intellect laughs at !
Make the Head & Heart Congruent
a. Fix the mind on any form divine/ formless
b. Intellect must pierce through the stony idol
and contact the pulsating truth it represents
c. Don’t be agitated and shy at the gateway of
the Temple-of-Truth – enter it, doubtlessly

How to be the most successful ?
Totally absorb in perfectly doing any task
Do it with utmost love and enjoy doing
Work like a bull to achieve the task
Give high priority and complete it
Is this not the profound secret ? Let us try and
script our own success story, how small it may be.

How to grow
towards fulfillment in life ?
Be most dedicated to the task
Be a task master and chase the Goal
Work with utmost love and devotion
Keep free from all other attachments
With a sense of enmity towards none
Successful men don’t do different things;
they just do the things differently !

Ω Don’t brood & grieve over the inevitable !
Let us all strive to live up to our potential !
