‘Gita taught, man should act by letting the Universal act through him.’

– Ramana Maharishi

Thought of the Week – 17th February 2020

If I were called upon to state in a few words the essence of everything I was trying to say both as a novelist and as a preacher, it would be something like this: Listen to your life. See it for the fathomless mystery that it is. In the boredom and pain of it, no less than in the excitement and gladness: touch, taste, smell your way to the holy and hidden heart of it, because in the last analysis, all moments are key moments, and life itself is grace.
—FREDERICK BUECHNER

Thought of the Week – 27th January 2020 (2)

Any individual society or nation (or Organisation) that functions on
Rights rather than Duties
will deteriorate and perish.
Taking deteriorates and serving nourishes.

 

– Bhagavad Gita – A. Parthasarathy
