Supreme Austerity


Life is always unpredictable. We live life for all those who do not wait for a while to start your last rites. Knowing this fact, we should live life. 
But many people take it negatively and hence say if nobody is yours then why we should live in society. But understand that to be social is a need of life. Being a human beings, we are dependable on society emotionally as well as physically.
To maintain the balance of this situation, supreme austerity is the best solution. 
Especially in today’s corona pandemic situation, it is very much needed to control your wishes and passions. From ancient times, in India, supreme austerity is practiced and followed very successfully by the majority of people. But with modernization, the graph of followers of this technique has been drastically reduced. 
Even though corona has again reestablished the necessity of this technique to control your wishes for food to increase immunity, to stay away from your own people, even if you wish to meet them, and to close down your business even if you are making huge losses. 
Imagine if somebody would have asked to do all these things for your own good before the corona pandemic who would have appreciated this. Nobody. 
But believe me, the fulfillment of wishes generates other many wishes. And this cycle continues.
So imagine if you control your first wish, initially, you may face trouble or inconvenience but afterward, when you see other people’s sufferings and dependability, you will understand that you are on the right track of life and much more happy.

The purity of thought

  Everything in the world in its purest form becomes its best form. The water when achieves its purest form becomes the sweetest in the taste. When air is in its purest form it becomes the freshest air. The same thing happens with our minds as well. If you remove all your possessiveness from the mind, the mind works most beautifully. If your thoughts are pure, you become the best person.  Bhagwan Mahaveer, Lord Ram left everything and become God. Lord Jesus left this world on the cross and it became the symbol of Christians.  Lord Gautam Buddha also left his extra luxurious life as a king and became a saint. When your soul starts its purification, material possessiveness goes away from the soul.  There was a rich person living in a palace. He was a miser, would not spend a single penny extra, or would not help anybody. Once there was a flood in the town. His palace got immersed in water. He was on the top of the palace.  A man with a boat came and as...

Sacrifice

Human life is incomplete without sacrifice. But if we have no other option than to sacrifice something is not actually a sacrifice. It is called helplessness. It has an altogether different system. Also, sacrifice is always to give something and not taking out the life of anybody or anything. When we have lots of options by which we can possess more than what we have or there is no need to donate something to somebody but still if we sacrifice or donate for someone’s betterment is actually a sacrifice.  As human beings, we live in society. So it is our duty to donate what society needed. This donation can be small or big but it should be as per society’s requirement.   Donation by pure heart gives the best result in terms of real happiness and inner peace.  Suppose you are walking on the road with a vegan sandwich in hand. And you see a very poor small orphan boy, very hungry crying for food, ask you the sandwich. You already had food. But you have taken ...

A Man of Principles

 I was employed by one company. The company had 50 employees. It is a partnership firm. They used to get job work from well-known OEM firms. Customers used to provide the raw materials, and we would process the parts. Then the customers would take back the finished products. In their logistic arrangements, the customer had a system for sending raw material as well as picking up processed material. So our job was to work efficiently because our efficiency was a direct profit to the owner. We used to have a very strict environment in the workplace. There would be a deafening silence when the owner arrived at the company. Nobody dared to say anything in front of him. Everyone used to be afraid of him. People who were new to the company initially despised him. But he had four old employees in whom he had great faith. They used to hold him in high regard. From them, I got to know that the owner is like a coconut. Though outside, he is an  extremely tough person,   he is a...
