Beautiful quote

Life is just too big. it does not stop if something goes wrong in it at some point of time. At the same time it is too short to fullfill all your dreams, if you have vision and potential to achieve.

Achyutam Keshavam

Achyutam Keshavam Krishna Damodaram, Rama naraynam Janakivallabham, (praising the Lord Krishna, with different names of Vishnu) Kaun kehta hai Bhagvan aate nahi Bhakta Meera ke jaise bulate nahi, (Who says God does not come? You don’t call Him with the devotion of Meera) Kaun kehta hai Bhagvan khaate nahi, Ber Shabri ke jaise khilate nahi, … Achyutam … (Who says God does not eat? You don’t feed him like how Shabari fed him) Kaun kehta hai Bhagvan Sote nahi, Maa Yashoda ke jaise sulate nahin, (Who says God does not sleep? You don’t make him sleep like how Mother Yashoda did) Kaun kehta hai Bhagvan naachte nahi, Tum Gopi ke jaise nachaate nahin, Achyutam… (Who says God does not dance? You don’t make him dance like how Gopis did) Naam Japate chalo kaam karte chalo Har samay Krishna ka dhyaan karte chalo Yaad aayegi unko kabhi na kabhi Krishan darshan to denge kabhi na kabhi …..Achyutam … (Keep praising the Lord, continue working ... Remember Him all the time. Krishna will appear one day or the other)

In Hindi - 

अच्चुतम केशवं कृष्ण दामोदरं,
राम नारायणं जानकी बल्लभम ।

कौन कहता हे भगवान आते नहीं,
तुम मीरा के जैसे बुलाते नहीं ।

कौन कहता है भगवान खाते नहीं,
बेर शबरी के जैसे खिलाते नहीं ।

कौन कहता है भगवान सोते नहीं,
माँ यशोदा के जैसे सुलाते नहीं ।

कौन कहता है भगवान नाचते नहीं,
गोपियों की तरह तुम नचाते नहीं ।

नाम जपते चलो काम करते चलो,
हर समय कृष्ण का ध्यान करते चलो ।

याद आएगी उनको कभी ना कभी,
कृष्ण दर्शन तो देंगे कभी ना कभी ।

Someone might need you

A nurse took the tired, anxious serviceman to the bedside.

"Your son is here," she said to the old man.

She had to repeat the words several times before the patient's eyes
opened.

Heavily sedated because of the pain of his heart attack, he dimly saw the
young uniformed Marine standing outside the oxygen tent. He reached out his
hand. The Marine wrapped his toughened fingers around the old man's limp
ones, squeezing a message of love and encouragement.

The nurse brought a chair so that the Marine could sit beside the bed.All
through the night, the young Marine sat there in the poorly lighted ward,
holding the old man's hand and offering him words of love and strength.
Occasionally, the nurse suggested that the Marine move away
and rest awhile.

He refused. Whenever the nurse came into the ward, the Marine was oblivious
of her and of the night noises of the hospital - the clanking of
the oxygen tank, the laughter of the night staff members exchanging
greetings, the cries and moans of the other patients.

Now and then she heard him say a few gentle words. The dying man said
nothing, only held tightly to his son all through the night.

Along towards dawn, the old man died. The Marine released the now lifeless
hand he had been holding and went to tell the nurse. While she did what she
had to do, he waited.

Finally, she returned. She started to offer words of sympathy, but the
Marine interrupted her.

"Who was that man?" he asked.

The nurse was startled, "He was your father," she answered.


"No, he wasn't," the Marine replied. "I never saw him before in my life."

"Then why didn't you say something when I took you to him?"

"I knew right away there had been a mistake, but I also knew he needed his
son, and his son just wasn't here. When I realized that he was too sick to
tell whether or not I was his son, knowing how much he needed me, I
stayed."

The next time someone needs you ... just be there. Stay.

STAY YOUNG

HOW TO STAY YOUNG

1. Throw out nonessential numbers. This includes age, weight and height. Let the doctors worry about them. That is why you pay "them."

2. Keep only cheerful friends. The grouches pull you down.

3. Keep learning. Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening, whatever. Never let the brain idle. "An idle mind is the devil's workshop." And the devil's name is Alzheimer's.

4. Enjoy the simple things.

5. Laugh often, long and loud. Laugh until you gasp for breath.

6. The tears happen. Endure, grieve, and move on. The only person, who is with us our entire life, is ourselves. Be ALIVE while you are alive.

7. Surround you with what and whom you love, whether it's family, pets, keepsakes, music, plants, and hobbies, whatever.

8. Cherish your health: If it is good, preserve it. If it is

Unstable, improve it. If it is beyond what you can improve, get help.

9. Don't take guilt trips. Take a trip to the mall, even to the next

County; to a foreign country but NEVER to where the guilt is.

10. Tell the people you love that you love them, at EVERY

Opportunity.



AND ALWAYS REMEMBER:

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that takes our breath away.

Its long when I visited this place. Actually I was busy visiting other places.

I have been to Vaishanav Devi last month. It was really a good trip. We walked around 13 km in the hills and that too in the night. Temperature was 12 to 13 degree but we were swatting.
In early morning, we had devi Darshan nicely. We were so tired to come down so we had taken horses, but I was so scared to ride and it was a real knock for my spinal. I and Saurabh got down from horses in between on the way down to katra and walked down. We had very good time with each other.

Hold my hands

Little girl and her father were crossing a bridge. The father was kind of scared so he asked his little daughter, "Sweetheart, please hold my hand so that you don't fall into the river."
The little girl said, "No, Dad, You hold my hand." "What's the difference?"
Asked the puzzled father. "There's a big difference," replied the little girl. "If I hold your hand and something happens to me, chances are that I may let your hand go.
But if you hold my hand, I know for sure that no matter what
happens, you will never let my hand go."

In any relationship, the essence of trust is not in its bind, but in ! its bond. So hold the hand of the person whom you love rather than expecting them to hold urs...

Here is something I did after so long.


जिदंगी छोटी सही, बहुत है जीने के लिये,
तेरा संग मिल जाये तो काफी है, उम॒ भर के लिये

Celebration means......
Hundred bucks of petrol.
A rusty old bike.
And an open road.

Celebration means......
Maggi noodles.
A hostel room.
4.25 a.m.

Celebration means......
3 old friends.
3 separate cities.
3 coffee mugs.
1 internet messenger.

Celebration means......
Rain on a hot tin roof.
Pakoras deep-frying.
Neighbours dropping in.
A party.

Celebration means......
You and mom.
A summer night.
A bottle of coconut oil.
A head massage.

You can spend Hundreds on birthdays, Thousands on festivals, Lakhs on weddings, but to celebrate all you have to do is spend your Time with your loved ones.

Keep in touch with your loved ones ........

Never CRY

NEVER CRY FOR ANY RELATION IN LIFE
BECAUSE FOR THE ONE WHOM YOU CRY
DOES NOT DESERVE YOUR TEARS
AND THE ONE WHO DESERVES
WILL NEVER LET YOU CRY.................

TREAT EVERYONE WITH POLITENESS
EVEN THOSE WHO ARE RUDE TO YOU,
NOT BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT NICE
BUT BECAUSE YOU ARE NICE.......................

NEVER SEARCH YOUR HAPPINESS IN OTHERS
WHICH WILL MAKE YOU FEEL ALONE,
RATHER SEARCH IT IN YOURSELF YOU
WILL FEEL HAPPY EVEN IF YOU ARE LEFT ALONE......................

ALWAYS HAVE A POSITIVE ATTITUDE IN LIFE.
THERE IS SOMETHING POSITIVE IN EVERY PERSON.
EVEN A STOPPED WATCH IS RIGHT TWICE A DAY .........................

HAPPINESS ALWAYS LOOKS SMALL
WHEN WE HOLD IT IN OUR HANDS.
BUT WHEN WE LEARN TO SHARE IT,
WE REALIZE HOW BIG AND PRECIOUS IT IS!................

Where is Ramanujam ?

Long ago, a clever mathematician used to cheat people. Once he borrowed $ 4000/- from a rich man. After a few days, he borrowed $ 2000/- from the same man.

Many days passed, the mathematician did not return the money to the rich man. The rich man went to the mathematician and asked to return the money. But to his great surprise, the mathematician replied that he had already paid the debt. "See here, friend" said the mathematician" the sum of 4000 and 2000 is equal to zero, so I do not have any balance to pay".

The rich man took the matter to the court. When the judge came to know this, he was astonished. He asked the mathematician to prove that sum of 4000 and 2000 is zero, but not 6000. The Clever mathematician agreed.
He said " let a = 4000 , b = 2000 and c = 6000"
a + b =c
Multiply both sides by a + b
=> (a + b) (a + b) = c (a + b)
=> a*a + ab + ba + b*b = ca + cb
=> a*a + ab - ca = cb - b*b - ba
=> a( a + b -c) = -b(b + a - c)
so a = -b
=> a + b =0
Hence by putting the values of "a" and "b" as 4000 and 2000 respectively, their sum is zero, so the mathematician saw no need to pay any money to the rich man.

The above calculation has no doubt surprised you as it did the judge.
