Embrace all Equally

A little boy wanted to meet God. He knew it was a long trip to
where God lived, so he packed his suitcase with a bag of potato chips
and a six-pack of root beer and started his journey.


When he had gone about three blocks, he met an old woman.
She was sitting in the park, just staring at some pigeons.
The boy sat down next to her and opened his suitcase.
He was about to take a drink from his root beer when he noticed that
the old lady looked hungry, so he offered her some chips.
She gratefully accepted it and smiled at him.


Her smile was so pretty that the boy wanted to see it again,
so he offered her a root beer. Again, she smiled at him.
The boy was delighted! They sat

There all afternoon eating and smiling, but they never said a word.




As twilight approached, the boy realized how tired he was and
he got up to leave; but before he had gone more than a few steps,
he turned around, ran back to the old woman, and gave her a hug.
She gave him her biggest smile ever.


When the boy opened the door to his own house a short time later,
his mother was surprised by the look of joy on his face.
She asked him, "What did you do today that made you so happy?"
He replied, " I had lunch with God." But before his mother could
respond, he added, "You know what? She's got the most beautiful
smile I've ever seen!"

નરસિંહ મહેતા – જળકમળ છાડી જાને (my childhood favourite) - with English Translation

જળકમળ છાડી જાને બાળા, સ્વામી અમારો જાગશે
જાગશે તને મારશે મને બાળ હત્યા લાગશે…

કહે રે બાળક તું મારગ ભુલ્યો, કે તારા વેરીએ વળાવીઓ
નિશ્ચલ તારો કાળ ખુટ્યો, અહીંયા તે શીદ આવીઓ…

નથી નાગણ હું મારગ ભુલ્યો, નથી મારા વેરીએ વળાવીઓ,
મથુરા નગરીમાં જુગટુ રમતા નાગનું શીશ હું હારીઓ…

રંગે રૂડો રૂપે પુરો દિસંત કોડિલો કોડામણો,
તારી માતાએ કેટલા જનમ્યાં તેમાં તું અળખામણો…

મારી માતાએ બે જનમ્યાં તેમાં હું નટવર નાનેલો
જગાડ તારા નાગને મારૂં નામ કૃષ્ણ કાનુડો…

લાખ સવાનો મારો હાર આપું, આપું તુજને દોરીઓ,
એટલું મારા નાગથી છાનું આપું તુજને ચોરીઓ…

શું કરું નાગણ હાર તારો, શું કરું તારો દોરીઓ,
શાને કાજે નાગણ તારે કરવી ઘરમાં ચોરીઓ…

ચરણ ચાંપી મૂછ મરડી, નાગણે નાગ જગાડિયો,
ઉઠોને બળવંત કોઇ, બારણે બાળક આવીયો…

બેઉ બળિયા બાથે વળગ્યાં, કૃષ્ણે કાળીનાગ નાથિયો,
સહસ્ત્ર ફેણ ફુંફવે, જેમ ગગન ગાજે હાથિયો…

નાગણ સૌ વિલાપ કરે જે, નાગને બહું દુઃખ આપશે,
મથુરાનગરીમાં લઇ જશે, પછી નાગનું શીશ કાપશે…

બેઉ કર જોડી વિનવે સ્વામી ! મુકો અમારા કંથને,
અમે અપરાધી કાંઇ ન સમજ્યાં, ન ઓળખ્યાં ભગવંતને…

થાળ ભરીને નાગણી સર્વે મોતીડે, શ્રીકૃષ્ણ વધાવિયો,
નરસૈંયાના નાથ પાસેથી, નાગણે નાગ છોડાવીયો…

-નરસિંહ મહેતા (Narsinh Mehta)

English Translation (Conversation between Lord Krishna and Kaliya Naag`s wife)


Kaliya naag`s Wife :

Leave this river full of lotuses,
child You might wake up our master fast asleep.
He will definitely not spare you if he wakes
Moreover, the sin of murdering a mere child will be on our heads!

Leave this river.."

Tell me, boy, have you lost your way, or has some foe led you astray?
You seem to have run out of your time, dear child, Or else, why would
you ever think of coming here?

Leave this river.. "


Krishna`s Answer : No I haven't lost my way and no foe can lead me astray, O consorts of Cobra, back there in
Mathura I just happened to lose your man's head in a friendly bet!"


Kaliya naag`s Wife : Leave this river.. "You are so cute, so pretty, so irresistible!
Tell us how many children your mother has So that you are unwanted?


Leave this river.. "


Krishna`s Answer : I am Natwar, the younger of two brothers Go and
wake up that snake of yours I am Krishna- the dark one!"


Kaliya naag`s Wife :

Leave this river.. "
Come, come, we will give you garland worth lakhs,
We will give you necklace made of pure gold, Without letting our master know!"


Leave this river.. "

Krishna`s Answer : What am I to do with that garland of yours?
Pray what is the use of that necklace to Me? And why should you
pilfer in your own house, O serpents?'


Kaliya naag`s Wife :
Leave this river.. "
Distraught they shook up the sleeping master by feet, They wrenched him by his
whiskers in great distress

"o Wake up master", they said
"there is child at our door"

The two powerful ones were locked in mortal combat, In no time Krishna mastered the colossai cobra,
His thousands hood hissing furiously
LIke the thundering lunar constellation in monsoon

"He will torture our Cobra" the wives lamenetd
"he will take him to Mathura and behead him
O forgive our husband" they pleaded
"We ignorant sinners could not recognize you
We could not fathom you, O lord"


They offered pearls in devotion and somehow managed to rescue
their seized husband from Narsaiyaa`s lord.

Krishna then forgives and ask them to leave Yamuna

Nothing is Interesting if you are not intersted

Once somebody told me that I am crazy about doing so and so thing in so and so way.
I also got convinced about that idea and felt like it could be the best thing to do.

Years later when i thought of doing that thing one another person told me that
it would be the worst thing to do one could think of

Then I realised that they both have differnt perspective of the same thing
because one is intersted and one is not.

Nobody in this world is bad
Nothing in this world is bad

Its just how you look at it
If you are intersted then you like and if you are not you will make excuses.

Also for your personal crucial decision never ever take anyone`s advice.
Everyone will give their word as per their experience and circumstances.
And there is no specific formula to be happy and successful.
Hear everyone but do only what you fell you can do.
So go with your own call only.

Life will definitely call you if you are true.

Marriage is like Lottery Ticket

Yeah its true guys
Whatever picture you dreamt of it is not actually available to you.

Instead you have to fit yourself in the frame presented to you
If you adjust and co-operate then everything will fell into right place automatically.

Dont panic and try it.
May be wou will win a Jack Pot in it.

There is no market for your emotions,so never advertise your feelings, just display your attitude.

I know it sounds weird but after seeing the world around me I can say this quote is true.

I agree that Love makes world go around but emotions which led to attachment hurts as
nothing lasts forever.

So enjoy the time you are in with person you are going around and then cherish memories.
Dont try to bind anyone and yourself too for anyone..

Virgo - MY ZODIAC SIGN

Virgo! About Your Sign...

Virgo is the only zodiacal sign represented by a female. It is sometimes thought of as a potentially creative girl, delicately lovely; sometimes as a somewhat older woman, intelligent but rather pedantic and spinsterish. The latter impression is sometimes confirmed by the Virgoan preciseness, refinement, fastidious love of cleanliness, hygiene and good order, conventionality and aristocratic attitude of reserve. They are usually observant, shrewd, critically inclined, judicious, patient, practical supporters of the status quo, and tend toward conservatism in all departments of life. On the surface they are emotionally cold, and sometimes this goes deeper, for their habit of suppressing their natural kindness may in the end cause it to atrophy, with the result that they shrink from committing themselves to friendship, make few relationships, and those they do make they are careful to keep superficial.

But the outward lack of feeling may, in some individuals born under this sign, conceal too much emotion, to which they are afraid of giving way because they do not trust others, nor do they have confidence in themselves and their judgments. This is because they are conscious of certain shortcomings in themselves of worldliness, of practicality, of sophistication and of outgoingness. So they bring the art of self concealment to a high pitch, hiding their apprehensiveness about themselves and their often considerable sympathy with other people under a mantle of matter-of-factness and undemonstrative, quiet reserve. They are still waters that run deep. Yet in their unassuming, outwardly cheerful and agreeable fashion, they can be sensible, discreet, well spoken, wise and witty, with a good understanding of other people's problems which they can tackle with a practicality not always evident in their own personal relationships.

Both sexes have considerable charm and dignity, which make some male Virgoans appear effeminate when they are not. In marriage they can be genuinely affectionate, making good spouses and parents, but their love making is a perfection of technique rather than the expression of desire, and they must be careful not to mate with a partner whose sex drive requires a passion they cannot match.

They are intellectually enquiring, methodical and logical, studious and teachable. They combine mental ingenuity with the ability to produce a clear analysis of the most complicated problems. They have an excellent eye for detail but they may be so meticulous that they neglect larger issues. Also, although they are realists, they may slow down projects by being too exact.
They are practical with their hands, good technicians and have genuine inventive talents, Thoroughness, hard work and conscientiousness are their hallmarks, and they are such perfectionists that, if things go wrong, they are easily discouraged. Because of their ability to see every angle of a many-sided question, they are unhappy with abstract theorizing. Appreciating the many different points of view as they do, they find philosophical concepts difficult, and they vacillate and have no confidence in any conclusions at which they arrive.

With these qualities, they are better as subordinates than leaders. Responsibility irks them and they often lack the breadth of strategic vision that a leader needs Virgoans are essentially tacticians, admirable in the attainment of limited objectives. Their self distrust is something they project on to other people and tends to make them exacting employers, though in the demands they make on those under them they temper this attitude with justice. They have potential abilities in the arts, sciences and languages. Language especially they use correctly, clearly, consciously and formally, as grammarians and etymologists rather than for literary interests, yet they are likely to have a good memory for apt quotations. Although they are well suited for careers in machine drawing, surveying and similar occupations, they are better fitted for a job in a library or office than a workshop.

Their minds are such that they need the stimulus of practical problems to be solved rather than the mere routine or working to set specifications that need no thought. They are careful with money and their interest in statistics makes them excellent bookkeepers and accountants. They also make good editors, physicists and analytical chemists. They may also find success as welfare workers, ministering to those less fortunate than themselves. They can be doctors, nurses, psychologists, teachers, confidential secretaries, technologists, inspectors, musicians, critics, public speakers and writers especially of reference works such as dictionaries and encyclopedias. Both sexes have a deep interest in history, a feature recognized by astrological authorities for at least two hundred years. If they go in for a business career their shrewdness and analytical ingenuity could tempt them into dishonesty, though they usually have enough moral sense to resist temptation. Female Virgoans may find a career in fashion, for they have a flair for dress, in which they can be trend setters. In any profession they choose the natives of this sign readily assimilate new ideas, but always with caution, conserving what they consider worth keeping from the past. They love country life but are unlikely to make good farmers, unless they can contrive to carry out their work without outraging their sense of hygiene and cleanliness.

Their faults, as is usual with all zodiacal types, are the extremes of their virtues. Fastidious reticence and modesty become old-maidishness and persnicketiness; balanced criticism becomes carping and nagging; and concern for detail becomes overspecialization. Virgoans are liable to indecision in wider issues and this can become chronic, turning molehills of minor difficulties into Himalayas of crisis. Their prudence can become guile and their carefulness, turned in on themselves, can produce worriers and hypochondriacs.
Possible Health Concerns...

Virgo is said to govern the hands, abdomen, intestines, spleen and central nervous system. Illnesses to which its natives are prone include catarrh, cold, coughs, pleurisies, pneumonia and nervous instabilities. Their natures make them inclined to worry and this makes them vulnerable to stomach and bowel troubles, including colic and ulcers. Male Virgoans may have trouble with their sexual organs. Both sexes are strongly interested in drugs and esoteric cuisine and as their delicate stomachs require them to be careful about their diet, it is essential that they treat their fascination with exotic food with extreme care.

PROBLEMS THAT MAY ARISE FOR YOU, AND THEIR SOLUTIONS

As with all sun signs, we all have unique traits to our personalities. When these traits are suppressed, or unrealized, problems will arise. However, with astrology we can examine the problem and assess the proper solution based on the sun sign characteristics. As a Virgo you may see things below that really strike home. Try the solution, you most likely will be amazed at the results. If you find yourself on the receiving end of the negatives below, it is because you are failing to express the positive.

Problem: Finding yourself frequently alone and unable to keep friends for more than a few weeks.
Solution: Try not to be argumentative over much and the constant criticism that Virgos give to their companions are not endearing qualities to have. Try to live and let live, they will love you for it.

Problem: People tend to avoid making close contact with you.
Solution: Being too preoccupied with health and making it a continual topic of conversation. Try to keep your tips and suggestions about health and health products to yourself unless asked for them.

Problem: Dissatisfied with the way your life is turning out; no excitement or change to speak of.
Solution: You may be restricting yourself by reducing your life to a set of theories and pigeon-holes. Try to express the positive by first asking yourself, Who or what are you serving; are you devoted or are you enslaved. Answer those questions and then start a new path that includes your true worth.

Problem: You may feel that your life and your climb to success is a steep hill that you may never be able to scale.
Solution: Try expressing the positive traits of your finely tuned analytical reasoning, employing the light touch with employees and coworkers, while expressing genuine concern for all; You will find those mountains turning into hills that you run right over.

Site Diversion

After spending 10 long days of learning html coding since
i made my site on 8th of Feb.
Finally i decided that the easiest thing i can do is to divert my site
to my blog site which is this right now.
So if you open >>> http://www.journeywithmyself.com/
you will see my blog page only. I did this because I don`t like that
"Site is Under Construction Section"

I tried dreamweaver too with the help of my cousin Vebby but all in vain.
Kat told me to first make complete website and then launch it.

Meanwhile Rat diverted it to get rid of this issue temporarily.
Now I can conentrate on blogging.

Ooo God.. In the complex world of coding.. I gonaa almost forget my wrtting ability.

Thank you Kanha for saving me..

How to Treat Others – 5 Important Lessons

1. First Important Lesson – “Know The Cleaning Lady”

During my second month of college, our professor gave us a pop quiz. I was a conscientious student and had breezed through the questions, until I read the last one: “What is the first name of the woman who cleans the school?”

Surely this was some kind of joke. I had seen the cleaning woman several times. She was tall, dark-haired and in her 50s, but how would I know her name? I handed in my paper, leaving the last question blank. Just before class ended, one student asked if the last question would count toward our quiz grade.

“Absolutely,” said the professor. “In your careers, you will meet many people. All are significant. They deserve your attention and care, even if all you do is smile and say “hello.”

I’ve never forgotten that lesson. I also learned her name was Dorothy.


2. Second Important Lesson – “Pickup In The Rain”

One night, at 11:30 p.m., an older African American woman was standing on the side of an Alabama highway trying to endure a lashing rainstorm. Her car had broken down and she desperately needed a ride. Soaking wet, she decided to flag down the next car.

A young white man stopped to help her, generally unheard of in those conflict-filled 1960s. The man took her to safety, helped her get assistance and put her into a taxicab.

She seemed to be in a big hurry, but wrote down his address and thanked him. Seven days went by and a knock came on the man’s door. To his surprise, a giant console color TV was delivered to his home.

A special note was attached. It read: “Thank you so much for assisting me on the highway the other night. The rain drenched not only my clothes, but also my spirits. Then you came along. Because of you, I was able to make it to my dying husband’s bedside just before he passed away. God bless you for helping me and unselfishly serving others.”

Sincerely, Mrs. Nat King Cole.

3. Third Important Lesson – “Remember Those Who Serve”

In the days when an ice cream sundae cost much less, a 10 year-old boy entered a hotel coffee shop and sat at a table. A waitress put a glass of water in front of him. “How much is an ice cream sundae?” he asked. “50¢,” replied the waitress.

The little boy pulled his hand out of his pocket and studied the coins in it.

“Well, how much is a plain dish of ice cream?” he inquired. By now more people were waiting for a table and the waitress was growing impatient. “35¢!” she brusquely replied.

The little boy again counted his coins. “I’ll have the plain ice cream,” he said. The waitress brought the ice cream, put the bill on the table and walked away. The boy finished the ice cream, paid the cashier and left.

When the waitress came back, she began to cry as she wiped down the table. There, placed neatly beside the empty dish, were two nickels and five pennies. You see, he couldn’t have the sundae, because he had to have enough left to leave her a tip.


4. Fourth Important Lesson – “The Obstacles In Our Path”

In ancient times, a King had a boulder placed on a roadway. Then he hid himself and watched to see if anyone would remove the huge rock. Some of the king’s wealthiest merchants and courtiers came by and simply walked around it. Many loudly blamed the King for not keeping the roads clear, but none did anything about getting the stone out of the way.

Then a peasant came along carrying a load of vegetables. Upon approaching the boulder, the peasant laid down his burden and tried to move the stone to the side of the road. After much pushing and straining, he finally succeeded. After the peasant picked up his load of vegetables, he noticed a purse lying in the road where the boulder had been. The purse contained many gold coins and a note from the King indicating that the gold was for the person who removed the boulder from the roadway. The peasant learned what many of us never understand – “Every obstacle presents an opportunity to improve our condition.”

5. Fifth Important Lesson – “Giving When It Counts”

Many years ago, when I worked as a volunteer at a hospital, I got to know a little girl named Liz who was suffering from a rare and serious disease. Her only chance of recovery appeared to be a blood transfusion from her 5-year-old brother, who had miraculously survived the same disease and had developed the antibodies needed to combat the illness. The doctor explained the situation to her little brother, and asked the little boy if he would be willing to give his blood to his sister. I saw him hesitate for only a moment before taking a deep breath and saying, “Yes, I’ll do it if it will save her.”

As the transfusion progressed, he lay in bed next to his sister and smiled, as we all did, seeing the color returning to her cheeks. Then his face grew pale and his smile faded. He looked up at the doctor and asked with a trembling voice, “Will I start to die right away?”.

Being young, the little boy had misunderstood the doctor; he thought he was going to have to give his sister all of his blood in order to save her.
