No Past, No Future; Live Today, Feel NOW



Past is non-existential, so is future.


Past is no more, future is not yet,


only the present is.


It is always now_ only the now exists

Freedom



People have different understandings,

Different ways of looking at things,

Different interpretations.

And they have to be allowed this
freedom.






Freedom is the goal of life.

Without freedom, life has no meaning at all.

By freedom is not meant any political, social or economic freedom.

By freedom is meant



freedom from time, freedom from mind, freedom from desire”.

Born to be Happy...



I hope you are Happy. But, there are many people who aren't. Why?


Happiness is a personal matter, depending greatly on our attitudes and how we look at the events and people in our lives, and how we seek happiness.



Great majority of people throughout the world seek happiness through Wealth, Fame, and Power. While these points help bring comfort and convenience in our lives, but they fail to increase our happiness. We need to change our attitudes in life and to secure happiness through other means. Just how do we change our attitudes, and just how do we find these " other" means?






Now... Do you want to know how happy you are???

So, visit the following page and answer the questions. A mail containing the result will be sent to you...

Wish you all to be the happiest!

My Immortal



I'm so tired of being here

Suppressed by all my childish fears

And if you have to leave

I wish that you would just leave

Cause your presence still lingers here

And it won't leave me alone


These wounds won't seem to heal

This pain is just too real

There's just too much that time cannot erase


When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears

When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears

And I've held your hand through all of these years

But you still have all of me


You used to captivate me by your resonating light

Now I'm bound by the life you left behind

Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams

Your voice it chased away oh all the sanity in me


These wounds won't seem to heal

This pain is just too real

There's just too much that time cannot erase


I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone

But though you're still with me

I've been alone all along

Joy in Pain


Joy is something spiritual;

It does not come from your body.

One can be joyous even when the body is ill,

One can rejoice even while dying. Joy is something inner.

Pain and pleasure are both body-oriented;

joy is being-oriented.
From "The Little Book of Osho"

The gift of sadness



Life is a very mysterious phenomenon,

Where laughter is a part and where tears also are a part.

Once in a while to be sad, really sad, is not bad.

Sadness has its own beauty.

You have just to learn to enjoy the beauty of sadness,

Its silence,

Its depth.

The understudy


"The show must go on", said the director when the star dropped dead moments before act one.

The star, not the understudy,would play the corpse tonight.

The understudy changed quickly. His performance was inspired. The star was flawless in his final role.

The understudy, fingering the syringe in his pocket, bowed t thunderous applause.

The Land of Discovery



Man is a little strange;


He goes on exploring the Himalyas,


he goes on exploring the pacific,


he goes on reaching for the moon and Mars;


there is just one thing he never tries_

exploring his inner being

Refreshing the soul!


Be strong enough to face the world each day.

Be weak enough to know you cannot do everything.



Be generous to those who need your help.

Be frugal of what you need yourself.



Be wise enough to know that you do not know everything.

Be wise enough to believe in your capabilities.



Be willing to share your joys.

Be willing to share the sorrows of others.



Be a leader when you see a path others have missed.

Be a follower when you are uncertain.



Be the first to congratulate an opponent who succeeds.

Be the last who criticize a colleague who fails.



Be sure where your next step will fall so that you will not stumble.

Be sure of your final destination in case you are going the wrong way.



Be loving to those who love you.

Be loving to those who do not love you.



And above all, BE YOURSELF!
(From VIVA, volume 2, August 2005)

On the verge of being born

Once upon a time there was a child ready to be born.
So one day he asked God,
"They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow, but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless?"
God replied,
"Among the many angels, I chose one for you. She will be waiting for you and will take care of you."
But the child wasn't sure he really wanted to go.
"But tell me, here in heaven, I don't do anything else but sing and smile, that's enough for me to be happy."
God smiled.
"Your angel will sing for you, and will also smile for you every day. And you will feel your angel's love and be happy."
"And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me," the child continued, "if I don't know the language that men talk?"
God patted him on the head and said:" your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak."
The child was sad.
"And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?"
But God had an answer for that question, too.
"Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray."
The baby then turned to God and asked,
"I've heard that on earth there are bad men, who will protect me?"
"Your angel will defend you even if it means risking its life!"
"But I will always be sad because I will not see you any more," the child continued warily.
God smiled on the young one.
"Your angel will always talk to you about me and will teach you the way for you to come back to me, even though I will always be next to you."
At the moment there was much peace in heaven, but voices from earth could already be heard. Child knew he had to start on his journey very soon.
He asked God one more question, softly,
"Oh God, if I am about to leave now, please tell me my angel's name."
God touched the child on the shoulder just before he departed and answered, "Your angel's name is of no importance. You will simply call her MOMMY."

An interview with God



Are you satisfied with your life?

Do you think that you are lucky?

Are you tasting the happiness in your life?

The following article , which I had saved it in my document and don't know where it has come from, is a very nice conversation between a human being and GOD, about this matter!

I'm sorry for the missed citation!

Any way,Wish you enjoy it...



I dreamed I had an interview with God
"So you would like to interview me?" God asked.
"If you had the time" I said.
God smiled." my time is eternity, what questions do you have in mind for me?"
"What surprises you most about humankind...?"
God answered…:
"That they get bored with childhood. They rush to grow up and then like to be children again.
That they lose their health to make money and then lose their money to restore their health.
That by thinking anxiously about the future, they forget the present, such that they live in neither the present nor the future.
That they live as if they will never die, and die as if they had never lived."
God's hand took mine and we were silent for a while and then I asked…
"As a parent, what are some life's lessons you want your children to learn?"
God replied with a smile
"To learn they can not make anyone love them. What they can do is let themselves be loved.
To learn that it is not good to compare themselves to others.
To learn that a rich person is not one who has the most, but is one who needs the least.
To learn that it only takes a few seconds to open profound wounds in persons we love, and it takes many years to heal them.
To learn to forgive by practicing forgiveness.
To lean that there are persons we love them dearly, but simply do not know how to express or show them our honest feelings.
To learn that two people can look at the same thing and see it quiet different.
To learn that it is not always enough that they are forgiven by others but that they must forgive themselves." And to learn that I am here, ALWAYS.
