    [JUSTIFY]What is true Yoga? It is control of vagaries of the mind and senses. We should treat alike pleasure & pain, praise & censure. That is Yoga.

    Religion means, "One that binds with origin". The purpose of all religions is to teach how to integrate with the Universal Absolute

    Guru is one who provides Eternal knowledge with patience and perseverance, teaches how to put into practice and expects nothing in return

    Childhood makes us learn, marriage makes us listen, parenthood makes us govern & old age makes us maintain

    Unconditional love with no expectation is best for a perfect marriage. It is an obligation to a partner who shares our happiness & suffering

    God does not expect to worship Him but he expects us to love our fellow beings, truthful, righteous, peaceful and non-violent

    It is impossible to draw from this world without giving something back in return. We have a right to make a living but an obligation to give

    World is created by our mind. Therefore, if we see problems out in the world, it is because how our mind perceives the world

    Our mental faculty should make three important decisions: What information to receive, how to react to such information and how to respond

    Every day given to us is a gift from the Universal Absolute. We need to use it for understanding why we came into existence and achieve it

    If we do not know what our life expectancy is, how do we plan our actions for our entire life including retirement? That is what is called faith

    Equanimity in life can be achieved by consistently practicing elimination of desires and attachments. They are the cause for our sufferings

    It is much more challenging to keep up fulfilling our desires than to face a competition from a fellow being

    Passion drives our dreams. Our success is directly proportional to how much we can visualize internally and execute externally

    Thoughts are more powerful than nuclear power. If used correctly can provide high energy and if used wrongly can destroy lives

    We get possessed by our possessions, thinking it is ours. Once we start thinking we are the trustees of what we have, the mind is relaxed

    We create our world outside of us as we grow in this world & as we reduce our desires and sacrifice, we merge with the Creator of this world

    When our vision is outside, we think to draw from this world what we need whereas when our vision is inside, we think to give to the world

    Love gives and forgives and selfishness gets and forgets. Selflessness in life is real & permanent & creates unity with Universal Absolute

    Learning to adapt to changes is important in life as it provides growth and consistency to our life. Without change, we become obsolete [/JUSTIFY]

    Good thought provoking post. True if we follow the advices given by our Guru we can lead a better life and reach our goals

    Whatever we learn in our childhood helps us infuture because it is the foundation time, marriage also helps us to learn to adjust . If we strive hard in young age then in old age we can live peacefully without expecting anything from anyone

    Unconditional love with no expectation is best for a perfect marriage. It is an obligation to a partner who shares our happiness & sufferin
    very true

    God does not expect to worship Him but he expects us to love our fellow beings, truthful, righteous, peaceful and non-violent

    This is what my son was also saying

    True the life we live is a gift from God we should know how to use it perfectly and lead our life accordingly. Make use of today because do not know what tomorrow holds for us.

    Thanks for sharing all the good points we should remember in life. This will be very helpful for youngsters because there is so much to learn from the experienced people for them

    Thanks for giving a yummy food for thought

    love
    viji
