The best lessons are learned from the people around us



"The best lessons in life are not learned from the books rather learned from studying fellow human being around us". We have learnt the discipline by watching the watch man who dresses and stands in the early morning even if it is raining or cold weather. Many times we have learned punctuality from the office boy who reaches the office every day before everybody comes and clean the office. Honesty and loyalty learned from the fellow works below us. We get inspired by seeing the results achieved by our junior executives. The person next to me on the thread mill motivates to run for five more minutes. All of us are livelier at home because of our kids and children. I am consciously practicing the integrity in my life just because of my son. I have learned silence and calmness from the talkative and person always argue for anything. I have learned patience from the impatience person around me.

The best lessons are learned from the people around us, not from the academic education, not form the books, not from the internet. The books may carry the knowledge, but not wisdom, not the experience.  The greatest lesson in life is to know that even fools are right sometimes. This reminds a quote “ The stopped watch also right for twice a day”.

Today's maturity is different form yesterday's

Arivu  ಅರಿವು … The Maturity at which we deal today is different from the maturity with which we dealt same on yesterday. I was discussing with a good friend of mine for his decision of postponing his marriage even after late 30’s.  He questioned me, what makes difference if it is too late marriage? Suddenly did not have answer to justify. But I believe, the intimacy at innocence age has different experience and feeling than the intimacy after over maturity. Every day pass by, we add an experience. Every time we meet a person we add an experience and get matured. It is foolish to say, I am meeting today with the same maturity had yesterday. Every experience showered gives a maturity in your life. I always say in my beginning of the speech, the person walked inside this room is not the same person when you go back. It adds a new experience in his life and adds a new wisdom on to the person. And it is true the person  gets next level of maturity when...

Guru is question of necessity

Guru Brmha, Guru Vishnu, Guru Devo Maheshwaraha… Guru is always considered as a God. Since Guru play a role of bringing a light in the life of a person. In all the scriptures the Guru is described as good as God. But Guru never says, “ I am   God”. But disciple (seeker) duty is to offer respect to the Guru just as he offers respect to God.   If all the lights in the room immediately shutoff, we would not be able to tell where we are or where others are sitting. Everything would become confused. Similarly, in materialistic life the darkness.  Therefore it needs light from sun, moon or electric light for illumination. The Guru responsibility is to bring his seekers from darkness to light. In materialistic life darkness means ignorance. A criminal may say, “I did not know the law,” But he will not be excused if he commits a crime. Ignorance has no excuse. Similarly, a child, not knowing that fire will burn, will touch the fire. The fire does not think, “this is a chil...
