It does not Matter.............

It does not matter

If some one is even an Enemy or Friend

One can have a relationship

If that one is a Person.

It does matter

If some one has aspirations, frustrations

failures and even success

One can have a relationship

If that one is Humane.

Otherwise One is left to wander

among the dead and compromised

breathing through painful days

In a lonesome dwelling.

                        --- Richard at Boston Commons.

Poverty......

poverty  most often is a mindset of

the individual and collective as a society

Not a natural calamity.

A reflection for the day......

Overcoming poverty is not a task of charity

It is an act of justice.

Like Slavery and Apartheid poverty is not natural

It is man-made and it can be overcome and

eradicated by the actions of human beings.

Sometimes it falls on a generation to be great.

YOU can be that great generation.

Let your greatness blossom.

― Nelson Mandela

One way of Life............

The one that truly fears 

A public court is the one 

That has conspiracy at heart and

Patience like a fox is not virtue

When one lays a bait 

Hoping for a kill

Neither a person 

Anymore human

When begins to live off others

Nor a life virtuous...... 

If lived other than for survival

Emancipation and enlightenment.

Quote of the day.........

People are often unreasonable and 

self-centered.

 Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind, 

people may accuse you of ulterior motives.

 Be kind anyway.

If you are honest, people may cheat you.

 Be honest anyway.

If you find happiness, people may be jealous.

 Be happy anyway.

The good you do today

may be forgotten tomorrow.

 Do good anyway.

Give the world the best you have and 

it may never be enough.

 Give your best anyway.

For you see, in the end, 

it is between you and God.

 It was never between you and 

them anyway.

― Mother Teresa

Freedom and Liberty........

Freedom is the emancipation from

The arbitrary Rule of 

Other Men.

-- Mortimer Adler.( 1902-2001)

      *      *       *       *      *

Liberty is not Collective, 

It is personal

All Liberty is...... 

Individual Liberty.

--- Calvin Coolidge.

30th US President.

Morality...........

Morality is not a private domain

That someone can claim for oneself

Instead It is the effervescence of consciousness

That adorns the virtuous among the humans.

In TIME....

From the poorest of the poor and 

A tight fisted miser

From an erudite scholar and a pious priest

From the conniving old and an innocent child

From a housewife and prostitute

From a best banker and clever thief

From a victorious soldier and  successful ruler

Even from the wisest among the wise

TIME finally steals everything.

To be Home / Less

All species in this universe are 

Equipped to survive 

On their own.......

Yet........ we help each other 

To connect and share

So that we can be...... 

One family.

The way of Honor......

If you ever were to have 

An enmity with a poor man /Men

Feed them well...... 

Make them strong and 

Treat them as equal

Then invite him /them 

To a duel.

     *        *         *        *        *

Choose equals both in war and friendship.

---- An Indian saying.

Truth and Farce.....Dharmo Rakshati Rakshitah ...........

In using farce to debunk the truth and

When we invest in making farce 

A reality.......

Truth begins to fallow .....

To expose the farce

In order to restore us to

True reality.

         *       *       *       *      *

Dharmo Rakshati Rakshitah..

Dharma protects those 

Who protect Dharma.

----Manusmṛti, Ch. 8, verse 15.

           *       *      *      *      *

Dharma is generally defined 

as righteousness or duty.

Dharma is the principle of 

righteousness.

It is the principle of holiness. 

It is also the principle of Unity.

If you protect it, it will protect you.

It is your sole companion after death.

It is the sole refuge of humanity.

             *      *      *     *      *

That which elevates one is 

Dharma.

            *      *      *     *     *

 Dharma is that which leads one to 

the path of perfection and glory.

            *       *         *        *        *

Self-realization is

The highest Dharma.

Helping.............

Help those who seek truth and 

Also those who hide truth

Equally with out prejudice.

For the seeker of truth is 

With out motive or cause....and

Help those who hide truth

Until there is no more left to hide

After that it is for god and 

Good of humanity 

That decides every ones fate.

Reflections...

It gets hard to differentiate

when one becomes 

One's own parody.

-- Joshua Eaton on twitter.

    *       *        *       *

Laissez faire, telle devrait être la 

devise de toute puissance publique, 

depuis que le monde est civilisé ... 

Détestable principe que celui de ne 

vouloir grandir que 

par l'abaissement de nos voisins! 

Il n'y a que la méchanceté et la malignité 

du coeur de satisfaites 

dans ce principe, et l’intérêt y est opposé. 

Laissez faire, morbleu! Laissez faire!!

          *        *      *       *       *

Leave it be, that should be the motto of 

all public powers, 

as the world is civilized ... 

That we cannot grow except by lowering 

our neighbors is a detestable notion! 

Only malice and malignity of heart is satisfied 

with such a principle and our (national) 

interest is opposed to it. 

Leave it be, for heaven's sake! Leave it be!
   

To Act.......

When working with Good people

One should make sure They know what one is up to

While working with Bad people

One Should make sure to take Liberties to do good.

Place of Prayer......

When a place of prayer is used

for purposes other than what it is

Its relevance is lost and

It no more stands on the sacred ground.

Protectionism.......

Protectionism and aggression are born out of

insecurities known and unknown.

Prejudice..........

Prejudice is an affliction of Human intelligence

that leads one to be blind in ones wisdom as opposed to

an insight leading to a proper understanding.

A racist ,castist mind..........

A racist,castist mind is the One

that is endowed with such ignorance and prejudice

which makes it lead a more disgraceful life

than the one it discriminates up on. 

To know.....

Ther is no more unknown in what is all ready known

and only in the unknown lies the possible future.

 *    *    *     *

A bhramin by cast is a distanced entity from the Bhraman.

By and large every person is a castist and recist

For it is by virtue of reason one gets to see

The fasle nature of such identities

for such indeties in the first place are always

the making of the unreasonable.

Athbutha...... ( Purva Memansa)

What God has prepared for those Who love him/her......

No eye has seen

No ear has heard

No mind has conceived........

   ---- Isaiah 64 : 4
