Happiness

Happiness lies in moments, rooted deep within us, along the constant journey of dharma

(cherished mission & not ambition). happiness therefore is not to be misunderstood with pleasure, likewise mission with ambition.

real happiness is source to the higher level of realisations, that comes, not out of expectation but selfless action & knowledge. & above all love...

Dreams (contd..)

While on shores, thought of the other end is the most important to us. we start on a boat with passion & plan to beat the sea. Challenge of the tides raises the emotions of both despair & valour.

Winner through the long sail may be the one who "loves the sailing" over the sea, more than idea to cross it or mere the idea of the shore at other end. Remember, we are in sea and not in pond, during the sail, many a dreams may be lost, but our mission or our dharma is to sail, a karmyogi (master of the tides) will sail without bothering consequences.

Now doing itself is not important, if we dont know swimming, we may drown. the sailor who can even dive into see, will have a survivavibilty.

knowledge and action therefore bear fruit, still this may not be sufficicient to bring happiness. so where does the happiness lies?.....

Dreams

We are dreamers. Its such a gift to have dreams. Dreams are the boat that sail over mighty waves in lives. Men of fortitude rode over them to find new lands.But there are times, when we get so engulfed in them, we forget life.

We have turned the things the other way around, the way we live. Its the life that keeps dreaming possible, like it's not the boats that make the ocean, but ocean that keeps boat afloat....

thoughts ........here and there

when i say life, i make it in a sense that it continues irrespective of our physical being. what is annihilated is our body, so the view can be contested by people who take life in its physical sense.

soul is a object, and when i say life( the best word that comes close to the sense ), i intend it to be a process. so our physical existence is futile but we extend beyond it.....in eternal life...

the great cause for us is now to realize our dharma. The duty we are endowed, that possibly existed in us across ages.

there is constant urge in us... to better ourselves, to do good, and more good, to make our existence ...meaningful. and therefore we analyse and act, our acts are reflected unto us, and the process continues , as we again analyse , and then act...

the process is realisation....self realisation.

the best in us, the highest achieved at the highest level of self realisation is parmatma.

life is a series of experiences. there is no real losses or victories nor that can be carried forward, what is carried forwarded is expectation. an event may be lost or won or an experience can be good or bad, life is above this, above wins and losses,....life is eternal.
