In life, there is nothing that you can simply gain. Here, for every gain, you always
have to lose something. Hence, the people who are apprehensive of losing in
every small matter...can never gain something big.

The ultimate height of human intelligence is understanding the ''science of mind''.
Intelligence at a secondary level is the understanding of principles of "time and
space" and its impact. Surprisingly, even people who know neither of these, still
consider themselves to be intelligent.
The philosophy of "Karma" and "Destiny" are two parallel lines...which have
never met, nor can they ever meet.
Just as extra energy is required to push the space shuttle out of earth's gravitation,
likewise, we also need energy above a certain limit to free the mind from the
influence of brain.
No teaching, no society nor any of the so-called religion explains to us the
importance of qualities like simplicity, innocence, selflessness or compassion.
Whereas the truth is, all the best creations, inventions and arts have stemmed
from the "consciousness" of people with these qualities.
'Joy' emanates only from those actions which bear fruits instantly. 'Act' today and
'result' tomorrow, such karmas can only impart pains and pleasures.
'Do your karma without worrying about the fruits of your action.' This is the most
wonderful shloka recited by the most intelligent man of this world "Krishna",
in the most unique granth the "Bhagavad Gita". The irony is, all our worships,
rituals, fasting, vastu, astrology are the acts performed with the expectations of
desired results.
After helping someone, if you expect a gesture of gratitude from him, then there
is no point in helping. If you feel good when he expresses his gratitude, then too
helping is useless. In that case, you must understand that your help was merely
a means to satiate your ego.
The person who understands the dynamics of changing circumstances, lives
his life satisfied in the present. Of course, he keeps an eye on how things are
shaping... As a result, the moment he sees anything ready on a platter, he
immediately grabs it with both hands.
Since human consciousness has traversed its journey from an amoeba to a
human being on the Principle of Evolution, if you note carefully, each one of us
will find many animal instincts within ourselves. To get rid of these instincts is the
first and foremost duty of every human being.
