Secret

 Sri Sadgurubhyoh Namah

Are you a being, who acts? 


Or


Are you a doer who has a being? 


Think about it, you will find an answer to the problem of life

We dont know anything for certain

 Sri Sadgurubhyoh Namah

1. Theory of relativity - Einstein

2. Heisenberg uncertainty principle

3. Godels incompleteness theoram

All nobel laureates. 

They got nobel prize for saying that 'we dont know for certain anything' 


Their theoram proves what the vedanta has been saying since 5000 years atleast that 'all is maya, illusion, doesn't exist'

Life is tough

 Sri Sadgurubhyoh Namah

Life is tough

One should grind their teeth and hold on tight

It is like that for all. There is no exception. 

We think that life is good for others, but only me who is suffering. 

But human life is one long suffering. 


'Life is a suffering - first noble truth by Buddha'

Little bit of Practice is right

 Sri Sadgurubhyoh Namah

All People know all the the things that religion and spirituality teaches. 

Problem is they dont follow them. 

For example, one should be compassionate. 

It is one thing to read about it. 

It is another feeling when you practice it with fellow beings. 


Like that for all the spiritual truths, when one puts them to practice, their inner meaning becomes clear.

Resolve to be peaceful

 Sri Sadgurubhyoh Namah

Nobody can control the external events or happenings in the world. We can only control how do we react emotionally to those happenings. 

If we, through our will power stop reaction to all external happenings, atleast we will be peaceful inside. 

For that to happen, we should say to ourselves, through enormous will, from this moment I dont give a damn to any happenings. No matter how disastrous or attractive the happenings are. I refuse to be involved in the world. This is a decision we have to take and stick to the decision, if we want to be peace ful.

What you want to do ?

 Sri Sadgurubhyoh Namah

If you ask ' what you want to do? ' 


To body : it will say : I want food, water, air, comfort

To mind: endless desires

To ego: it will say 'I want to be greatest of all'

To intellect:buddhi:it will say 'do the right things, be of help to some people'


If a person leads a life as buddhi jeevi, and somehow make ego, mind, body to follow right path, such a person is an enlightened being.

Disciplined

 Sri Sadgurubhyoh Namah

You dont do right things because of you are disciplined. 

You are called disciplined because of you act on your commitments and do right things no matter what.
