Peeking in to God's Mind
Everything we see that He created
Is peeking into God's mind.
Just Look at the things here on earth,
and in the universe too which we can find,
we are seeing the final results of His thoughts,
of everything He did and does today.
Let's give Him thanks for He created us too,
all you have to do is pray.
God's mind is a most magnificent thing,
Just look around and you'll see,
All the things that He thought of
and created, all miracles to be.
Every thing we see that He created..
is peeking into God's mind,
He is our Lord God Almighty,
He loves us all we find.

Suffering
"Suffering is the price of being alive.
It requires more courage to suffer than to die.
Wisdom comes only through suffering.
To become spectator of one`s own life...
It requires more courage to suffer than to die.
Wisdom comes only through suffering.
To become spectator of one`s own life...
is to escape the suffering of life."
Escape
"To escape your prison........
Study the walls built around you.
Feel the heavy door keeping you inside.
Lay down on its floor holding your weight.
Look through the bars preventing a wider view.
Unless you know your limitations,
escape is impossible."
Ocean Of Life

We often ask ourselves: what is the purpose of life?Is it to be born again and again.The answer is NO.
Today's newspaper becomes waste paper of tomorrow.Once we have finished the newspaper,we do not like to read it again and again.
Similarly,we have been given this birth and have gone through varied experiences of pleasure and pain.We should, therefore, pray now:
"O Lord, You have given me this life, and I have gone through all the experiences of pleasure and pain.I do not want to have another birth.Please take me across the tumultuous ocean and grant me liberation."
"O Lord, You have given me this life, and I have gone through all the experiences of pleasure and pain.I do not want to have another birth.Please take me across the tumultuous ocean and grant me liberation."

Life is like a tree
them, us, you and me,
open your mind
and you will see,
we are all connected.
We were born on the same day.....
separated by branches,
we have migrated away,
separated by branches,
we have migrated away,
nature and the environment,
our bodies from the earth.
If it wasn't for water
we would still be dirt.
Our origin is a mystery,
we come from a magical seed,
we are of different colors,
but we are all the same breed...
Life is like a tree
as delicate as can be,
harm one of the branches
you harm the entire tree.
Life is like a tree
them, us, you and me
open up your mind
and you will see.

Every Thing Is Fine
To a truly contented and enlightened soul everything in the world, which means the way the world is right now, is just fine. To the unenlightened and discontented soul, this will look otherwise.
Now imagine if a group of actors go to the theatre, for their evening performance, and on entering the stage, start shifting the backdrop, altering the scenery and moving the props around.
Rather they should totally concentrate on the role they need to play to the best of their ability. And so it is with the world.The backdrop to our life is the way things are at this moment in time. The props are exactly where they are meant to be at this moment in time. Many people spend their whole lives trying to change the backdrop and move the props around, little realising the futility of the exercise.
Yes, they may succeed in altering an angle here or there. But all at the cost of the focus and the energy needed to put on their best performance.Little did they realise that if they had fully focussed on their performance and achieved their own highest standards of excellence, not only would those around them be immensely enriched, but the backdrop and the props of their life would have changed automatically.
Excellence is a much more powerful influence in the world than discontent. So everything is fine out there. No one said it's perfect. But it is exactly the way it should be ...at this moment. So if we want to influence change for the better, then the most effective way to begin is with contentment with the way things are.
The way things are, are the way things are meant to be...

Each person comes into this world with a specific destiny - he or she has something to fulfill.
Some message that has to be delivered, some work that has to be completed.
You are not here accidentally - you are here meaningfully. There is a purpose behind you.
The WHOLE intends to do something through you........OSHO
The Teacher We Need
"Life always gives us exactly the teacher we need at every moment.
This includes :
every mosquito,
every misfortune,
every red light,
every traffic jam,
every obnoxious supervisor (or employee),
every illness,
every loss,
every moment of joy or depression,
every addiction, every piece of garbage......
Every moment is the Guru."
When the mind is at peace
"When the mind is at peace,
the world too is at peace.
Nothing real, nothing absent.
Not holding on to reality,
not getting stuck in the void,
you are neither holy nor wise,
just an ordinary fellow who has completed his work."
P'ang Yun (Layman P'ang

Nothing
At a court banquet, everyone was sitting according to their rank, waiting for the king to appear. A simply dressed man came in and took a seat above everyone else.
The prime minister demanded that he identify himself.
Are you the adviser of a great king?
"No, I rank above a royal adviser."
Are you a prime minsiter?
"No, I outrank a prime minister."
Are you a king in disguise?
"No, I am above that rank as well."
Then you must be God, the prime minister said sarcastically.
"No, I am above that."
There is nothing above God! shouted the prime minister.
The stranger replied calmly,
"Now you know me. That nothing is me."

Simply By Existing
"Sometimes we feel that we've got to climb a mountain or raise a monument to leave our mark on the world. What we fail to recognize is that often we make a difference simply by existing, by handling what life gives us.
Maybe the way we deal with our challenges and our rewards inspires someone else to achieve worthwhile things in their own life..."

Compasion
"Compassion is a natural state of being, a state in which God resides eternally.
It is a divine attribute which is able to melt the heart away. It is very intense. When a heart melts out of abundance of love....... compassion flows out and it knows no boundaries.
It is akin to universal benevolence which knows only one thing and that is how to give out. And this conforms perfectly to the divine nature.
God has only been giving out, all the time, never expecting anything in return. He is an infinite reservoir of benevolence and compassion."
