  • Disturbances are needed

    All human beings will agree on one point without any exception. The point is, there should be no disturbances in the life.Many people are often in support of disturbances stating that they help you to excel in life. But, they also accept that after these initial days of struggle and education are over, there should…

  • Nothing good, nothing bad

    A few days ago, got a chance to read a wonderful book written by the master Osho. The book had in it one very wonderful statement- “In life, there are no good decisions and bad decisions. There are only wise decisions and fool decisions.” I was shocked by this out of earth understanding. Yes, in…

    This can be rather a bit shocking post title to read for all of the readers here. I have been always know as a life celebrating person. Today too, I am not at all life negative. I am not at all worried or under tension. It is generally observed that those who prove to be…

  • Dohe of Kabir #5

    जाती नं पुछो साधू की पुछ लिजिये ग्यान मोल करो तलवार का पडा राहन दो म्यान…. (Do not ask a holy man his cast, look at his knowledge. One should always inquire about the sword and not its cover.) One of the basic problem of human beings is, that they need respect. Any person on this earth…

  • The world inside

    Today, I feel a bit silent, calm. If something you trust gets proved, it does not give you relief, but certainly gives a calmness. If you require proof for something, then you do not trust it. Then you just verify it and agree with it. If is trust, it will need no proof. If you…

  • Dohe of Kabir #4

    साई इतना दिजीये, जा में कुटुम समाये मै भी भूखा न रहू, साधू न भूखा जाय. Gautam Buddha always used to tell people to follow a middle way. Pyrhagoras has also always spoken about golden means. Kabir too, is a golden mean. Kabir did all of his worldly duties. Kabir used to work for his…
