When there are no more desires, and no more needs, and nothing attracts you, then you are free. Chuang Tzu
You Are Free
YOU ARE FREE
NEVER ASK GOD; WHY?
“217th” Stories
***One day death went to visit a man and said: “Today will be your last day of living.”
“But I am not ready.” The man replied.
The death said: “Sorry to say that your name was at the top of my today’s list.”
The man calmly rejoined: “Oh, ok. No problem. Let’s have a coffee together, before my death.”
“No harm in that.” The Death responded.
The man secretly put some sleeping pills in Death’s coffee and handed her the cup.
The Death finished the coffee and went to deep sleep.
The man took the Death’s list and erased his name from the top part of the inventory and put it at the bottom.
The death woke up and said: “You were very kind to me today. To pay my appreciation to you I will start my duty from the bottom of the list.”

BUDDHA PURNIMA
Started his earthy journey in the year 563 B.C. to King Sudhodhana & Queen Maya
His birth name was Sidharatha
Born in Lumbini in the Kingdom of Kapilavastu in Nepal
Wherein he had his upbringing
With love and affection profusely overflowing
From childhood itself, he was surcharged with emotions.
He used to feel much pain
When he saw people in utter pain
Hence the King kept him at his aloof in residence
Profuse with a lot of opulence
And all the comforts which a person needs for existence.
Prince Sidhartha was married to princess Yasodhara
So that his son remains busy in the palace life itself
Just cut off from the outside existence
Filled with pain and sufferings
As his father wanted him to be the king and rule his kingdom after him
But the seers predicted that Sidharatha would be spiritual oriented.
A Buddha – is the…

Continue reading “WORLD PASSWORD DAY”THE POWER OF NAMASTE 🙏
During my first few days at the University of Washington, I remember meeting so many new people. I vividly recall meeting a group of international students from different corners of the globe at a get-to-know-each-other board games event. At first, we were all hesitant and unsure about how to interact with one another given our diverse backgrounds. However, as we played a whimsical round of Scrabble and chit-chatted for a bit, at the end of the day we all wanted to blend in to feel appreciated and loved. So, what does this tell us about human nature?
Getting a little bit in touch with my roots, here’s the most beautiful thing I see in Hinduism: Namaste! This one gracious word reminds us that:
“We are the same. And we are whole.”
As a little girl, I remember watching people join their hands close together with a gentle bow and…

I WILL LOVE YOU UNCONDITIONALLY
Go and stand in front of a mirror right now and tell yourself that you will love yourself unconditionally no matter what.
This is my decision to unconditionally love myself. I adore both the woman I have become and the girl I used to be. In the end, there is actually nothing wrong with me. To some extent, all the negativity, bullying, lost friendships, hatred, and judgement had nothing to do with me, but nobody was to blame. I can now see that. I felt like I was missing something, and the experience broke me. I wasn’t strong enough to stand up for myself, whether it was because of how I witnessed my mother’s upbringing or a lack of confidence. I was unaware that being who I am is OK. The majority of the time now, I see a brighter version of myself. The way I am is amazing. After all, I am lovely.
I am aware that I am no longer required to defend myself to anybody who will pretend to listen. I am aware that I don’t need to inform others of my anxiety and despair in the hopes that they would be understanding. No, I don’t have to tell you why I act the way I do. I don’t have to be too pleasant or kind to you. I owe you nothing. However, I do have a responsibility to provide for myself on a daily basis with a secure and loving home within my flesh. Even when others don’t give it to me especially when they don’t I do owe myself love, gratitude, and respect. I’ve learned how to comfort myself, so I don’t need somebody to save me or make me feel better. I am happy to be here. Of course, it’s wonderful to be surrounded by good people who accept me. It’s simple to miss people that do notice you and love you for it when you don’t love yourself or know who you are at your heart.
Remember, the most comfortable option isn’t usually the best option for you. Sometimes you have to get out of your comfort zone. Sometimes you have to take a chance on yourself, even if it’s terrifying and uncomfortable. Yes, you could lose something lovely by taking the riskier option, but you could also get something fantastic.

I Will Love You Unconditionally

Once, I thought I was lost in the dark.
Stumbling through the thick air of nothingness;
I would fall, again and again.
Never able to find the light, I was trapped.
My thoughts became monsters, hunting me down.
It took some time for me to realize
I wasn’t lost in the darkness, as I had imagined for so long.
I was the dark, simply lost within myself.
That was the moment that I not only turned on the light, I became the light.

HAPPY LABOUR DAYTODAY
In Bhagwad Gita, it has been rightly said:Perform your prescribed duty, for action is better than inaction. A man cannot even maintain his physical body without work.
OUR LABOUR CLASS PLAYS THE MOST SIGNIFICANT ROLL FOR OUR SOCIETY
RESOLTION OF 1889
A resolution was passed in 1889 by the Marxist International Socialist Congress in which it was decided that the workers should not be made to work for more than eight hours a day. Thereafter, it became an annual feature to celebrate 1stMay as the Labour Day.
In essence, in order that the labour class works conscientiously and to their full potential, it is most significant that their rights are protected to a maximum extent through:
HAPPLY LABOUR DAY
A day most memorable
While we pay glowing tributes to class so respectable
A class which stands apart
For definite contribution to the society at large

ACCEPTABLE
Prints on a finger,
are each made unique.
Eye on the trigger,
avoid critique.Live life and let live,
follow inner voice.
Resent or forgive,
each path is a choice.People roam this earth,
in search of purpose,
ignore inner worth,
to scratch the surface.Live life and let live,
try to never judge,
we get what we give,
perceptions can smudge.Release and accept,
dive deeply within.
Try not to expect,
to savor the wins.Live life and let live,
respect distinct ways.
Strain hate with a sieve,
love conquers each day.[…]
Acceptable
