Echo of life

A man and his son were walking in the forest.

Suddenly the boy trips and feeling a sharp pain he screams “Ahhhhhhhhh”.

Surprised he hears a voice coming from the mountain, “Ahhhhhhhhh”…!

Filled with curiosity, he screams: “Who are you?”, but the only answer he receives is “who are you?”

This makes him angry, so he screams: “You are a coward!”, and the voice answers “You are a coward!”

He looks at his father, asking, “Dad, what is going on?”

“Son, “ the man replies, “pay attention!” then he screams, “I admire you!”.

The voice answers “I admire you”.

The father shouts, “You are wonderful!”, and the voice answers: “You are wonderful!”

Then the father explains, “People call this ‘ECHO’, but truly it is ‘LIFE’!

Life always gives you back what you give out!

Life is a mirror of your actions.

If you want more love, give more love!

If you want understanding, give understanding and respect.

If you want people to be patient and respectful to you, give patience and respect!

This rule of nature applies to every aspect of our lives.”

Life always gives you back what you give out.

Your life is not a coincidence, but a mirror of your own doings.

A love story

Once upon a time there was an island where all the feelings lived, Happiness, Sadness,
Knowledge and all the others, including Love.

One day it was announced to all of the feelings that the island was going to sink to
the bottom of the ocean.

So, all the feelings prepared their boats to leave.

Love was the only one that stayed.

She wanted to preserve the island paradise until the very last possible moment.

When the island was almost totally under water, Love decided it was time to leave.

She began looking for someone to ask for help.

Just then Richness was passing by in a grand boat.

Love asked, “Richness, can I come with you on your boat?”

Richness answered, “I am sorry, but there is a lot of silver and gold on my boat
and there would be no room for you anywhere”

The Love decided to ask Vanity, who was passing in a beautiful vessel, for help.

Love cried out “Vanity, help me please!”,

“I can’t help you, “ Vanity said, “You are all wet and will damage my beautiful boat.”

Next Love saw Sadness passing by.

Love said, “Sadness please let me go with you.”

Sadness answered, “Love, I’m sorry, but, I just need to be alone now.”

Then, Love saw Happiness and cried out, “Happiness, please take me with you.”

But Happiness was so overjoyed that he didn’t hear Love calling him.

Love began to cry, then, she heard a voice say, “Come love I will take you with me”.

It was an elder.

Love felt so blessed and overjoyed that she forgot to ask the elder his name.

When they arrived on land the elder went on his way.

Love realized how much she owed the elder and when she met Knowledge she asked who it was that had helped her.

“It was Time”, Knowledge answered. “But why did Time help me when no one else would?”,
Love asked.

Knowledge smiled and with deep wisdom and sincerity, answered, “Because only Time is capable of understanding how great Love is.”

Ghar ( in Hindi )

Wonderful poem penned by Ashok Chakradar

Darwaazo se na deewaro se..
Ghar bantha hai gharwalo se..
Achha koi makaan banayega..
paisa bhi khoob lagayega..
par agar rahne ko nahi aayega..
ghar uska bhar jayega..
makadiyo ke jhhaalo se.....

Ghar mein jabh koi na hota hai..
Dadhi hai aur na potha hai..
galath naina hota hai..
bheetar hi bheetar rota hai..
Ghar hasta hai Bhaal Gopalo se..
Na Darwaazo se na Deewaro se..


Aur rahe bhi magar ladayi ho..
Bhai ka dushman bhai ho..
Nandi se tanni Bhaujayi ho..
Paise na ho tho ram duhayi ho...
Ghar Akela rahega sawalo se..
Na Darwaazo se na deewaro se..


Agar prem ke eento ka ujala ho..
har eent mein bhaichaara ho..
kandhho ka , zukaam ka ,sahara ho..
bin kidkiyo mein ujiyara ho..
Ghar na giree bhuchalo se..

Darwaazo se na deewaro se..
Ghar bantha hai gharwalo se..

SPIRITUAL INSPIRATION : GOD AND I BY JASPAL BHATTI

I believe in the existence of God and I am God-fearing.
The universe has originated due to some super power.
In the wide ocean we are like a small drop.

My faith in God has never been shaken.
And I am grateful to him for the fame and success that I have today.
I have never asked Him for anything, nor have I ever taken a mannat .
Religion is an individual and private matter.


If a few people sit down and discuss religion I feel that they will soon argue, but if they discuss humour they will laugh and enjoy themselves.
Humour and laughter bind people. Humour dissolves arguments and builds a rapport.
It dispels gloom. Laughter brings us closer to God.
It transcends limitations and takes us deeper into reality.


Love and laughter brings people closer to the Almighty I am thankful to Him
for the sense of humour he has blessed me with.
I believe that work is worship and for me humour is like a religion.

I think it's important to look at life and at society with humour,
because then we can cope with things in a better way.


I always look at the lighter side of the problem.
My childhood has been a religious one.

Till the age of 10, I lived with my grandparents, who instilled in me religious values.
As a kid I spent a lot of time in the Gurudwara with them and at home reading religious books.


My grandmother who is now 90 plus has largely influenced me.
I am not superstitious, but everyone suggested that I break a coconut for the mahurat of my serial Flop Show because it is considered auspicious - but I made a black cat run before the camera.
People consider black cats a bad omen. I don't think so. And the Flop Show was a hit!

One has to work if one wants to achieve something in life; one has to make the best of opportunities that come in life rather than sit and wait for things to happen.

I believe in the teachings of Bhagvad Gita - Do your duty, leave the rest to Him.
Whatever work one does, one must do it with delight and not as if it is a burden.

I never wear any precious stones nor have changed the spelling of my name yet! I pray to God to give me inner strength and faith to go on in life, so I don't have to look elsewhere for strength.

In life, ups and downs are natural.

But I never lose faith in myself. I am grateful to God for all that he has blessed me with.

I never complain to Him nor have been angry with Him.

I feel that religion has been commercialised today, religious practitioners feel threatened by other religions.

The so-called religious heads should give up their fanaticism.

Religion is a personal matter.

People should learn to respect all religions and ultimately aim to be good human beings.

Prem ( in Hindi )

This is a poem penned by our music teacher during our school days . I hope you like it...

Dil jalane se kya hoga..
Gham sunane se kya hoga..
Jab talaq zindagi hai..
Pyar ke nagme sunaye ja..


Bhaant Pao tho suk bhaanto..
sirf aanso bahana kya..
sabi ke aapne aapne gham..
kisiko gham sunana kya..

Bhikero kushiya hi kushiya..
Tabh tumhari hogi duniya..
aanke ye ponchkar ..
muskaan ke moti lootaye ja..

ki nahi tanha nahi ho tum..
akele chaalkar tho dekho..
kabhi kudh se karo batein..
kabhi kudh se milkar dekho..
yoo akelepan ka matham..
yoo hee jeekar tho dekho tum..
na ho sathi koyi tho..
Dosti kudh se nibaye ja..

Tho yeh sahi yeh galat hoga..
yoo agar ho tho yoo hoga..
raah mein aaisa bhi hoga..
chah mein waaisa bhi hoga..
tho inn fasano se kya hoga..
inn bahano se kya hoga..
khuda tak agar pahoonchna hai..
kisi se lho lagaye ja.. (lho means prem)


Ki dosto zindagi milthi nahi hai zindagi bhar ko.. ( koi amar hoke tho nahi aaya hai is duniya mein ... )
tho rootna kya zamaane se, kosna kya muqadar ko..
aaj andhyara hai tho kya,kal ujala bhi aayega..
agar naraaz hai sooraj, koi shamma jalaye ja..


Dil Jalane se kya hoga..
Gham sunane se kya hoga ....

I was thinking in the lines of "Kalyani Black Label"

See my lateral thinking! :)

... response by vijai atavane ... BITBUGGERS Group

Answer

Aree kisi ne bhi uttar nahi diya...what a shame ??

Split the name KALYANI : KAL + AANI

In Tamil KAL means STONE , AANI means NAIL

The Senior manager was a Tamilian , he was not able to guess how a stone be inside a nail .

Thats why he started laughing...So the next time u happen to meet a person by the same name...

u will do 2 things

- burst out laughing
- or remember HAQ

I advice u to do the latter...

Cheers

Power of holding hands

I was sitting on a beach one summer day , watching two children ,
a boy and a girl,playing in the sand.

They were hard at work building an elaborate sandcastle by the water's edge,
with gates and towers and moats and internal passages.

Just when they had nearly finishedtheir project, a big wave came along and
knocked it down, reducing it to a heap of wet sand.

I expected the children to burst into tears, devastated by what had happened
to all their hardwork. But they surprised me.

Instead, they ran up the shore away from the water, laughing
and holding hands, and sat down to build another castle.

I realised that they had taught me an important lesson.

All the things in our lives , all the complicated structures we spent
so much time and energycreating , are built on sand.
Only our relationships to other people endure.

Sooner or later , the wave will come along and knock down
what we have worked so hard to build up.

When that happens , only the person who has somebody's hand to hold will be able to laugh….

Quotes by Swami Vivekananda

Choose the highest ideal and live your life upto that. Look at the "ocean" and not at the wave.

That which tends to increase the divinity in you is virtue, and that which tends to increase brutality in you is vice.

He who sees Shiva in the poor, in the weak, and in the diseased, really worships Shiva.

Purity in thought, speech, and act is absolutely necessary for anyone to be religious. Purity is strength. Spiritual truth is purity.

The ideal of the man is to see God in everything. The real evil is idleness which is the principal cause of our poverty.

Everyone should know that there is no salvation except through the conquering of desires.

Death being so certain, it is better to die for a good cause.

Religion is the manifestation of the Divinity already in man.

Your country requires heroes, be heroes!

To me the very essence of education is concentration of the mind, not the collecting of facts.
Each soul is potentially divine.

Religion is the idea which is raising the brute unto man, and man unto God.

All power is within you; you can do anything and everything. Believe in that.

Work, work, work - let this be your motto.

Now the only way out is to listen to the words of the Lord in the Gita.

Be a hero. Always say, "I have no fear".

Struggle hard to get money, but don't get attached to it.

Feel that you are great and you become great.

To devote your life to the good of all and to the happiness of all is religion.
Whatever you do for your own sake is not religion.

At my will mountains will crumble up. Have that sort of energy, that sort of will; work hard, and you will reach the goal.

It is those foolish people who identify themselves with their bodies that piteously cry, 'Weak, weak, we are weak'.

Keep the motto before you: "Elevation of the masses without injuring their religion".

Man never progresses from error to truth, but from truth to truth, from lesser truth to higher truth.

Avoid all weakness, for weakness is sin, weakness is death.

Never talk about the faults of others, no matter how bad they may be. Nothing is ever gained by that.

I shall inspire men everywhere until the world shall know that it is one with God.
Let us go forward and do yet greater things.

The more selfish a man, the more immoral he is.

Give to the weak, for there all the gift is needed.

Knowledge exists, man only discovers it.

Give up all desire for enjoyment in earth or heaven.

Be courageous. Do not try to lead your brethren, but serve them.

Be the witness and do not react, only thus can you be happy.

None can help you, help yourself; work out your own salvation.

Be not afraid of anything. You will do marvellous work.

Try to love anybody and everybody.

You have to go from the inside out.

None can teach you, non can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher but your own soul.

Know it for certain that you are in everything.

Go on bravely. Do not expect success in a day or a year.

Let all your nerves vibrate through the backbone of your religion.

Do not talk much, but feel the spirit within you.

If you want to be spiritual, you must renounce.

Your way is the best for you, but that is no sign that it is the best for others.

Renounce the lower so that you may get the higher.

Where can we go to find God if we cannot see Him in our own hearts and in every living being?

Your work is to serve the poor and miserable, without distinction of caste or colour.

Help another because you are in him and he is in you.

The poor, the illiterate, the ignorant, the afflicted,...let these be your God. Know that service to these alone is the highest religion.

If I am in the dark, let me light a lamp.

The earth's bravest and best will have to sacrifice themselves for the good of many, for the welfare of all.

Every duty is holy, and devotion to duty is the highest form of worship of God.

We only get what we deserve. It is a lie when we say, the world is bad and we are good. It can never be so.

You will understand the mighty strength of Krishna better with a little of strong blood in you.

It is struggle against nature and not conformity to nature that makes man what he is.

Each work has to pass through these stages - ridicule, opposition and then acceptance.

First there should be strict integrity...Secondly, entire devotion to the cause

The will is not free - it is a phenomenon bound by cause and effect - but there is something behind the will which is free.

You fail only when you do not strive sufficiently to manifest infinite power.

Whatever you do, devote your whole Mind, Heart, and Soul to it.

Whatever you think, that you will be. If you think yourselves weak, weak you will be; if you think yourselves strong, strong you will be.

Never mind failures; they are quite natural, they are the beauty of life - these failures.

He works best who works without any motive, neither for money, nor for fame, nor for anything else.

The new religion says that he is an atheist who does not believe in himself.

Neither seek nor avoid, take what comes.

You should work like a master and not as a slave; work incessantly, but do not do a slave's work
Believe that the soul is immortal, infinite and all powerful.

Even if the order be wrong, first obey and then contradict it.

Be a hero. Always say, "I have no fear".

Our first duty is not to hate ourselves; because to advance we must have faith in ourselves first and then in God.
