Unless you are able to respect house helps, until you are able to treat waiters with respect, until you truly respect your gardener, until you intentionally choose to honestly respect those whom you think are less intelligent than you, or less educated, or are less lucky than you… you will forever hover from peace to peace, looking for a perpetual peace that you will never find.

What joy is to know everything not,
To revel in the mysteries life has brought,
For in the vastness of the unknown lies,
A world of wonders that never dies.
With each new day, a chance to explore,
To wander through realms unseen before,
Unshackled by the weight of absolute knowing,
A journey of learning, forever ongoing.
In the depths of ignorance, we find bliss,
A humble recognition, a lover’s first kiss,
For knowledge alone cannot quench our thirst,
It’s the quest for wisdom that truly comes first.
The whispers of truth, like elusive fireflies,
Dance in the shadows, where curiosity lies,
Embracing the questions that can’t be answered,
We find solace in the mysteries that have gathered.
For what is life without a sense of surprise,
Without the enchantment found in uncharted skies?
It’s the thrill of the chase, the pursuit of the unknown,
That kindles the embers where joy is sown.
So let us celebrate the realms unseen,
And cherish the spaces where knowledge convenes,
For in the humble admission of what we don’t know,
Lies the boundless potential for wonder to grow.
What joy is to know everything not,
To bask in the beauty that ignorance brought,
For in our yearning, in our humble quest,
We find the essence of knowledge’s true zest.

Success = Progress + Morality + Spirituality + Humanity
~ Pujya Gyanvatsal Swami
A common man wants everything without doing anything;
He wants to live without touch with reality and be in touch with reality;
He tries to be free by using all his time making money;
He wishes for some miracle but never thought of being a miracle;
He sees something to complain about and nothing to be grateful for;
He uses his mouth only for himself, to eat;
He never stands up for anything or anyone;
He agrees with those he likes and disagrees with those he doesn’t like;
He accuses others of not helping him to be responsible;
He disapproves of what he approves to maintain a conversation;
Just because you can afford it, doesn’t qualify you to have it…

Where the gun is pointing is more important than who is holding the gun;
If a child threatens you, don’t ignore the threat…as the saying goes, the most dangerous people are those with nothing to loose or everything to loose

What You Tolerate, You Allow;

There is a power inside, A power that wants out, An out that doesn't exist, That doesn't exist yet, Yet it must be, Because why would it feel so real, So real if it didn't exist, Just give me a chance A moment to realize the out, Maybe to imagine it into being, To believe it exists, To create it, To know it, To go there, There where my energy is, Where I am complete, There where I am whole; Where I am who I am; Where I am me; Where I can be me; I can do me; I can live me I can live true There where I will live true, Authentic and genuine to myself To my being; To my nature To my original purpose As I am Just let me free Please let me free; Set me free, Set me free, time; Set me free, soul; Be free, Be free, me Be free;
When you know the angels, you don’t need God.
