"Holding a grudge against someone is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die.Forgiveness is a virtue. "

Being With The Self

One thing which i observed off late is that the feelings of human mind keep swinging.At times the mind has negative feelings such as worries,fear,hatred,anger etc. At times the same mind is enveloped in LOVE,Kindness and compassion.

I feel that when we are in touch with our inner being,our inner self,we are with God and in tune with subtlety and we are love.

When we take drift from ourselves we undergo all the negative feelings.
What ever be the happenings in the external environment,when we are with our real being,we are love and we can give only love.

The human mind always likes to oscillate like a pendulm,i think it is our duty to keep the oscillation minimal even if we cannot make it standstill.

Khalil Gibran on marriage

You were born together, and together you shall be forevermore.

You shall be together when white wings of death scatter your days.

Aye, you shall be together even in the silent memory of God.

But let there be spaces in your togetherness,

And let the winds of the heavens dance between you.

Love one another but make not a bond of love:

Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.

Fill each other's cup but drink not from one cup.

Give one another of your bread but eat not from the same loaf.

Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each one of you be alone,

Even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same music.

Give your hearts, but not into each other's keeping.

For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts.

And stand together, yet not too near together:

For the pillars of the temple stand apart,

And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other's shadow .
