money".

Linking karma with physical acts is the lowest level of intelligence. This
encompasses all the acts right from fasting to rigorous toiling. A wise being links
karma with intent. Pure intent is in itself a good karma. But a supremely intelligent
being views "karma" in the light of its result. Whatever is the final outcome of
your action, is indeed your "true intent".
The root of all our miseries is not being mentally prepared for a situation. I cannot
understand, why don't you accept that what happens to others, can always

Among many moral stories told to children by their parents, the stories of obedient

for the sake of their old age?
"Time" is such a flow that it puts even an exemplary person like "Krishna" to
the deep sleep of death. But the life that he lived and the Bhagavad Gita that
he recited, immortalizes him forever. Even you have to die, then why not do
something that immortalizes you forever.
Do you know the difference between 'doing' and 'happening'? Whatever that

whatever that simply ''happens'' by you is actually the time when you are really
alive.

Because we suppress our anger against the strong and powerful, we keep
venting our anger on the weak, irrespective of the reason.
A king is the one, who is the master of himself. You are just a slave of your
religion, caste, creed, society, thinking, desires and worries.
A 'powerful person' is free to express his anger, whereas a 'weaker person' is
compelled to suppress it. Thus in the process, the powerful goes on to become
happier, and the weaker, perverted forever.
