How To Acquire Good Samskaras

Try to acquire some good spiri tual Samskaras in this birth at least, if you are not able to devote all your time in spiritual pursuit. Do some kind of meditation for a short time at least daily, say for half an hour in the morning and evening. Have a meditation room. Make some kind of Japa of any Mantra. Study the Gita regularly. Have Satsanga. Visit Rishikesh, Nasik, Varanasi, Haridwar, Prayag once a year for a week’s stay. Have the Darshana of Mahatmas. By doing… http://bit.ly/csv1wV

If a boy is not trained well in life and not given education at the proper age, his mother in his enemy and his father is the sworn destroyer. For an uneducated man suffers in this world and especially where it counts, cannot shine …he will be like an ugly crane in the midst of swans

Others‘ teachings and writings will mean nothing if you do not know your own inner path
What is spirituality? Right now you have a body and a mind, both physical in nature. But there is a third dimension to you. Those who are exploring this dimension are said to be on the spiritual path. If your experiences in life transcend the limitations of the physical, then you think spiritual.
To cross beyond, one has to be willing. People are taking time to be willing because they are caught in the proces… http://bit.ly/au8uHk

my son’s favorite bedtime stories, One Grain of Rice, an Indian mathematical folktale
by Demi. Rice is about a raja who believes he is a fair ruler, even though he keeps
almost all of the people’s rice for himself. When famine comes, the villagers have
nothing to eat but the raja orders feasts for himself. One day a local girl named Rani
comes upon an elephant carrying rice for the raja, but the rice bag is leaking. Rani
catches the falling rice in her skirt, but rather than keep it for herself,… http://bit.ly/cz3nCn

Effective listening is more than simply avoiding the bad habit of interrupting others while they are speaking or finishing their sentences. It’s being content to listen to the entire thought of someone rather than waiting impatiently for your chance to respond.

In some ways, the way we fail to listen is symbolic of the way we live. We often treat communication as if it were a race. It’s almost like our goal is to have no time gaps between the conclusion of the sentences of the person we are spe… http://bit.ly/d8ML0j

He has not the idea of Bhokta, Bhoga and Bhogya (enjoyer, enjoyment and enjoyable).
The eating of a mango will not produce any Samskara in him. He will not think again at a certain
time, “I ate a delicious mango at Mr. Raman’s bungalow last year”. He has not the Kama
Sankalpa. He is free from the Bhav, “Aham Bhokta” or “I am enjoyer”. He is aware of the
hunger. He is aware that hunger is the Dharma of the Pranamaya Kosha and that something or
the other should be thrust inside the stomach to appe… http://bit.ly/bGBWSp
