ANYWAY
People are unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered,
Love Them Anyway
If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives,
Do Good Anyway
If you are successful, you win false friends and true enemies,
Succeed Anyway
Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable,
Be Honest and Frank Anyway
What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight,
Build Anyway
People really need help but may attact you if you help them,
Help People Anyway
Give the world the best you have and you'll get kicked in the teeth,
Give the World the Best You've Got Anyway
(from Mother Teresa, a Simple Path )
We are all one. Saints, rishis, seers and savants have existed in all religious traditions and cultures from time immemorial.

Peace can only be realised...
Peace and bliss are not to be found in great palaces, false awards, , puffed status, gigantic materialistic stuff. Peace can only be realised ------this is the reason Sidharth son of a king left his great palace and went in search of peace ---in search of himself.---- and became Lord Buddha------OM SHANTIH SHANTIH--------------Dr. Ram Sharma

Swami Ramalingam... Vallalar... famous Indian saint of 19th century...
Swami Ramalingam, popularly known as Vallalar, was one of the most notable saints on the Indian sub-continent during the 19th century. He was born on October 5, 1823, in Marudur near Chidambaram into a Hindu Saivite family, the fifth child and last son of his father Ramayya Pillai and mother Chinnammayyar.

Vallalar left the world on January 30, 1874 at age 51
the Vast Grace Light...
The Vast Grace Light has developed a Gracious, auspicious, unique and unparallel Space in me where I can manifest my golden triple body.”

Life of eternal bliss is union with God...
Swami Ramalingam (Vallalar) says, "Life of eternal bliss is union with God. Those who have achieved this will have transmuted this impure carnal body into a pure golden body and again have the pure body transformed into super sensible, spiritual body"

in the presence of a great master, the closed bud of your heart opens up..
A flower doesn't need instructions on how to bloom. No music teacher taught the... nightingale to sing. It is spontaneous. There is no force involved, it happens naturally. Similarly, in the presence of a great Master, the closed bud of your heart opens up. You become as receptive and innocent as a child, a humble and obedient child of the Master.” ~Amma

it is love that pays.. not money...
Money does not pay, nor name;
fame does not pay, nor learning.
It is love that pays; it is character
that cleaves its way through
adamantine walls of difficulties.

Prayer of St Francis of Assisi..
May Our Good Lord and Beloved, bring true peace to the hearts of all his beloved children
Prayer of Saint Francis of Assisi
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury,pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
and where there is sadness, joy.
Oh... Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive;
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen

Welcome to Great Saints of All Religions...
Welcome to Great Saints of All Religions.... throughout human history, great saints of all religions have appeared all over the globe... recognized perhaps as holy men and women, great sages, seers, Rishis, tribal medicine men and women, and people of profound wisdom and spiritual magnetism recognized by those around them. We are highlighting some of the most well known, and yet, we know that many saints never become famous working behind the scenes in their locations as humble servants of all.

when grace is lost from life, come with a burst of song...
"When the heart is hard and parched up, come upon me with a shower of mercy.
When grace is lost from life, come with a burst of song.
When tumultuous work raises its din on all sides shutting me out from beyond, come to me, my lord of silence, with thy peace and rest.
When my beggarly heart sits crouched, shut up in a corner, break open the door, my king, and come with the ceremony of a king.
When desire blinds the mind with delusion and dust, O thou holy one, thou wakeful, come with thy light and thy thunder."
— Rabindranath Tagore

Guru Nanak...
Whoever, styling himself as a teacher lives on the charity of others, never bow before him. He who earns his livelihood by the sweat of Hasbro and shares it with others. O Nanak only he can know the way.----GURU NANAK
Happy Good Friday Greetings...
HAPPY GOOD FRIDAY GREETINGS-------------
"There is only one God and He is God to all; therefore it is important that everyone is seen as equal before God. I’ve always said we should help a Hindu become a better Hindu, a Muslim become a better Muslim, a Catholic become a better Catholic. We believe our work should be our example to people. We have among us 475 souls - 30 families are Catholics and the rest are all Hindus, Muslims, Sikhs—all different religions. But they all come to our prayers."

Mother Teresa of Calcutta...
People are often unreasonable and self-centered. Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.
If you are honest, people may cheat you. Be honest anyway.
If you find happiness, people may be jealous. Be happy anyway.
The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough. Give your best anyway.
For you see, in the end, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway."
~Mother Teresa

Swami Ramkrishna Paramahansa... birthday today...
Today we are celebrating the birthday of Swami Ramkrishna Paramhans great yogi and guru of Swami Vivekanand----March 6
The light Divine is obscured in most people .It is like a lamp in a cask of iron, no gleam of light can shine through.Gradually , by purity and unselfishness we can make the obscuring medium less and less dense , until at last it becomes as transparent as glass.Shri Ramakrishna was like the iron cask transformed into a glass cask through which can be seen the inner light as it is .We are all on the way to become the cask of glass and even higher and higher reflections.As long as there is a ` cask` at all, we must think through material means. No impatient one can ever succeed.---------------SWAMI VIVEKANANDA---- MY TRIBUTE AT THE BIRTHDAY OF SWAMI RAMKRISHNA PARAMHANS— ON MARCH 6-----JAI GURU DEV

Brink of Eternity....
Brink Of Eternity
by Tagore
In desperate hope I go and search for her
in all the corners of my room;
I find her not.
My house is small
and what once has gone from it can never be regained.
But infinite is thy mansion, my lord,
and seeking her I have to come to thy door.
I stand under the golden canopy of thine evening sky
and I lift my eager eyes to thy face.
I have come to the brink of eternity from which nothing can vanish
---no hope, no happiness, no vision of a face seen through tears.
Oh, dip my emptied life into that ocean,
plunge it into the deepest fullness.
Let me for once feel that lost sweet touch
in the allness of the universe
by Tagore

Great Seers and We....
Great Seers
BY DR. RAM SHARMA, MEERUT, INDIA
Great seers and we
Like bubbles
One, two and more
In this world of waters in kettle
Boiling
Ebullition and stream
Transportation from this materialistic world
Into the spiritual world
Our body a vessel to cross the ocean
To reach the shores of the eternal truth
Great Seers
Help us to feel our Atman [ true self]

Lord Jesus.. the Great One of Galilee...
This is the land of Christians , and any other influence than that is almost zero.Nor do I care a bit for the enmity of any---ists in the world. I am here amongst the children of the Son of Mary , and the Lord Jesus will help me.They like the broad views of Hinduism and my love for the prophet of Nazareth.I tell them that I preach nothing against the Great One of Galilee. I only ask the Christians to take in the Great Ones of India along with the Lord Jesus, and they appreciate it.----SWAMI VIVEKANAND [ MASSACHUSETTS, 20 AUGUST 1893]

Swami Vivekananda..
This first contact with the reality of life convinced me that unselfish sympathy was a rarity in the world --there was no place in it for the weak , the poor , and the destitute.I noticed that those who only a few days ago would have been proud to have helped me in any way , now turned their faces against me , though they had enough and to spare.--------------SWAMI VIVEKANAND
