"There is nothing like a vice or a virtue" and it has been said many a times in the

For peace, bliss and prosperity in life, what we need is energy, not knowledge. The

Many a times despite feeling hungry we observe fast and at times inspite of

What is the difference between us and Buddha, Krishna and Christ? Firstly,
eliminating the negativities of mind, they energized themselves and then they
deployed the same energy for the upliftment of the whole world. And look at us,
we are so inept that we can't even amass 'energy for our own betterment'.
We tend to suppress our anger against each other which ultimately leads to big
quarrels some day. If two people have been naturally expressing their differences

are the creations of human brain.
