A rare Conversation between Krishna and Today's Arjun

Arjun : I can’t find free time. Life has become hectic.

Krishna : Activity gets you busy. But productivity gets you free.

Arjun : Why has life become complicated now?

Krishna : Stop analyzing life... It makes it complicated. Just live it.

Arjun : Why are we then constantly unhappy?

Krishna : Worrying has become your habit. That’s why you are not happy.

Arjun : Why do good people always suffer?

Krishna : Diamond cannot be polished without friction. Gold cannot be purified without fire. Good people go through trials, but don’t suffer. With that experience their life becomes better, not bitter.

Arjun : You mean to say such experience is useful?

Krishna : Yes. In every term, Experience is a hard teacher. She gives the test first and the lessons later.

Arjun : Because of so many problems, we don’t know where we are heading…

Krishna : If you look outside you will not know where you are heading. Look inside. Eyes provide sight. Heart provides the way.

Arjun : Does failure hurt more than moving in the right direction?

Krishna : Success is a measure as decided by others. Satisfaction is a measure as decided by you.

Arjun : In tough times, how do you stay motivated?

Krishna : Always look at how far you have come rather than how far you have to go. Always count your blessing, not what you are missing.

Arjun : What surprises you about people?

Krishna : When they suffer they ask, "why me?" When they prosper, they never ask "Why me?"

Arjun : How can I get the best out of life?

Krishna : Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without fear.

Arjun : One last question. Sometimes I feel my prayers are not answered.

Krishna : There are no unanswered prayers. Keep the faith and drop the fear. Life is a mystery to solve, not a problem to resolve. Trust me. Life is wonderful if you know how to live.

Last Words of Steve Jobs

I reached the pinnacle of success in the business world.

In others’ eyes, my life is an epitome of success.

However, aside from work, I have little joy. In the end, wealth is only a fact of life that I am accustomed to.

At this moment, lying on the sick bed and recalling my whole life, I realize that all the recognition and wealth that I took so much pride in, have paled and become meaningless in the face of impending death.

In the darkness, I look at the green lights from the life supporting machines and hear the humming mechanical sounds, I can feel the breath of God of death drawing closer…

Now I know, when we have accumulated sufficient wealth to last our lifetime, we should pursue other matters that are unrelated to wealth…

Should be something that is more important:

Perhaps relationships, perhaps art, perhaps a dream from younger days ...

Non-stop pursuing of wealth will only turn a person into a twisted being, just like me.

God gave us the senses to let us feel the love in everyone’s heart, not the illusions brought about by wealth.

The wealth I have won in my life I cannot bring with me.

What I can bring is only the memories precipitated by love.

That’s the true riches which will follow you, accompany you, giving you strength and light to go on.

Love can travel a thousand miles. Life has no limit. Go where you want to go. Reach the height you want to reach. It is all in your heart and in your hands.

What is the most expensive bed in the world? - "Sick bed" …

You can employ someone to drive the car for you, make money for you but you cannot have someone to bear the sickness for you.

Material things lost can be found. But there is one thing that can never be found when it is lost – "Life".

When a person goes into the operating room, he will realize that there is one book that he has yet to finish reading – "Book of Healthy Life".

Whichever stage in life we are at right now, with time, we will face the day when the curtain comes down.

Treasure Love for your family, love for your spouse, love for your friends...

Treat yourself well. Cherish others.

सफल जीवन क्या होता है

एक बेटे ने पिता से पूछा – पापा ये ‘सफल जीवन’ क्या होता है ?

पिता, बेटे को पतंग उड़ाने ले गए।

बेटा पिता को ध्यान से पतंग उड़ाते देख रहा था…

थोड़ी देर बाद बेटा बोला, पापा.. ये धागे की वजह से पतंग और ऊपर नहीं जा पा रही है, क्या हम इसे तोड़ दें !! ये और ऊपर चली जाएगी…

पिता ने धागा तोड़ दिया ..

पतंग थोड़ा सा और ऊपर गई और उसके बाद लहरा कर नीचे आइ और दूर अनजान जगह पर जा कर गिर गई…

तब पिता ने बेटे को जीवन का दर्शन समझाया .,,,,

बेटा..
‘जिंदगी में हम जिस ऊंचाई पर हैं..
हमें अक्सर लगता की कुछ चीजें, जिनसे हम बंधे हैं वे हमें और ऊपर जाने से रोक रही हैं

जैसे :घर, परिवार, अनुशासन, माता-पिता आदि और हम उनसे आजाद होना चाहते हैं… वास्तव में यही वो धागे होते हैं जो हमें उस ऊंचाई पर बना के रखते हैं.. इन धागों के बिना हम एक बार तो ऊपर जायेंगे परन्तु बाद में हमारा वो ही हश्र होगा जो बिन धागे की पतंग का हुआ…’

“अतः जीवन में यदि तुम ऊंचाइयों पर बने रहना चाहते हो तो, कभी भी इन धागों से रिश्ता मत तोड़ना..”
” धागे और पतंग जैसे जुड़ाव के सफल संतुलन से मिली हुई ऊंचाई को ही ‘सफल जीवन’ कहते हैं

How to live life to the fullest? By Sandeep Maheshwari (in Hindi)

When our mind is strong, we can withstand even a thousand challenges without being affected by any of them. And such stability of mind cannot be achieved overnight. It is an endless pursuit. And while doing so, the most important thing to understand and remember is that…

"No matter how BIG your problem is, You are bigger than your problems."

MIRACLES by Sandeep Maheshwari (in Hindi)

Anything that our mind can’t understand seems like a miracle to us. Many a times, we attribute such things to a supernatural being (God), a miracle worker, a saint or a religious leader. And when we start believing blindly in such beings that we think can perform miracles, we stop relying on our own strengths.

Three Beautiful Thoughts

• None can destroy iron, but its own rust can! Similarly, none can destroy a person, but his own mindset can. 
• Ups and downs in life are very important to keep us going, because a straight line even in an E.C.G. means we are not alive. 
• F-E-A-R has two meanings : 

1. Forget Everything and Run. 
2. Face Everything and Rise.
