Remember that you are always loved. you are always protected and you are never alone. You also are a being of light, of wisdom, of love. You can never be forgotten. You can never be overlooked or ignored. You are not your body; you are not your brain, not even your mind. You are Spirit. Spirit has no limits, not the limits of the physical body nor the reaches of the intellect or the mind.

There are no mistakes. The events we bring upon ourselves, no matter how unpleasant, are necessary in order to learn what we need to learn; whatever steps we take, they are necessary to reach the places we have chosen to go.

A disciple asked, "What is that one should know beyond which there is nothing else to be known?" His Master asked him to bring the seed of a pipal tree and then break it. When the disciple said that he found only small particles, he was asked to break the small particles also, till at last the disciple said that he could find nothing. Then the Master said, "Though you say you could see nothing, understand that it is from nothing that the great pipal tree is formed. Though you see yourself as a mere individual, you have great power within; of self-knowledge, similar to the power inherent in the seed, to become a great tree. Realize this and your potential to rise up to the level of Brahmin."

Problems can be traced to one single cause. It is one's eagerness to know everything about the world except for himself. Unless he knows about himself, he cannot know anything about others. Unless one knows the subject first, one cannot know the object. Rather than engaging oneself exclusively to gain knowledge of the world of science and technology, one needs to strive for complete self-knowledge that deals not only with one's material but also non-material aspects. Only that knowledge of the self is complete and self-sufficient by knowing that all the unknowable can be known.

You know that your desires are inseparably connected with everything else. Your very desire is not your own; it's an evolutionary impulse coming through you. A desire makes you evolve eventually, so why would you doubt it? The impulse is part of the greater pattern, which is to grow and evolve into greater abundance and creativity," - Deepak Chopra.

A doctor entered the hospital in hurry after being called in for an urgent surgery. He answered the call asap, changed his clothes and went directly to the surgery block. He found the boy's father pacing in the hall waiting for the doctor. On seeing him, the dad yelled: "Why did you take all this time to come? Don't you know that my son's life is in danger? Don't you have any sense of responsibility?"

The doctor smiled and said, "I am sorry, I wasn't in the hospital and I came as fast as I could after receiving the call. And now, I wish you'd calm down."

"Calm down?! What if your son was in this room right now, would you calm down? If your own son dies now what will you do?" said the father angrily.

The doctor smiled again and replied: "I will say what Job said in the Holy Book "From dust, we came and to dust we return, blessed be the name of God". Doctors cannot prolong lives. Go and intercede for your son, we will do our best by God's grace."

"Giving advice when we're not concerned is so easy" Murmured the father.

The surgery took some hours after which the doctor went out happy, "Thank god! your son is saved!" And without waiting for the father's reply he carried on his way running. "If you have any questions, please ask the nurse."

"Why is he so arrogant? He couldn't wait some minutes so that I could ask about my son's state", commented on the father when seeing the nurse minutes after the doctor left.

The nurse answered, with tears coming down her face, "His son died yesterday in a road accident, he was in the burial when we called him for your son's surgery. Now that he saved your son's life, he left running to finish his son's burial."

Please try and never judge anyone.

“Are you looking for me? I am in the next seat. My shoulder is against you. You will not find me in the stupas, not in Indian shrine rooms, nor in synagogues, nor in cathedrals, not in masses, nor kirtans, not in legs winding around your own neck, nor in eating nothing but vegetables. When you really look for me, you will see me instantly-you will find me in the tiniest house of time. Student, tell me, what is God? He is the breath inside the breath." - Kabir.
