From The Book How to live without Fear & Worry

 

 

People need loving the most when they deserve the least.
Worry is a misuse of the imagination.
God will mend even a broken heart if we give Him all the pieces.
Don't be an ' if' thinker, be a'' how' thinker.
You may give out, but never give up.
Develop a swelled heart, not a swelled head.
Joy adds and multiplies as you divide it with others.
Be somebody cause God doesn't take time to make a nobody,
The more you "pass on" to other, the more you keep for yourself.
Success is not a destination; it's the direction in which you are traveling.
If you don't start, it's certain we can't arrive.
"God love you - whether you like it or not!"
The most destitute person in the world is the one without a Smile.
No one is useless in this world who lightens the burden of it to anyone else.
Success is easy once you believe.
You get the best out of other when you give the best of yourself.
You can only see in others what is inside of you.
Love will die though neglect just as will a flower, tree or bush.
Go as far as you can see and when you get there, you will always be able to see further.
The love of money is the root of all evil.
Others can stop you temporarily you are the only one who can do it permanently.
You can go where you want to go, do what you want to do, have what you want to have, and be what you want to be.
If you want to reach your goal, you must see the reaching in your own mind before you actually arrive at your goal.
If you learn from a defeat, you haven't really lost.
There are seldom, if ever any hopeless situations.
How you get up in the morning will play a big part in how you go up in life.
Your rewards in life are due more to your behavior than to your birth.
If you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day, but if you teach him how to fish, you feed him for life.
Success occurs when opportunity meets preparation.
Happiness is not pleasure, it is victory.
Freedom, like health, is often appreciated only after we no longer have it.
For what is a man profited if he/she shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul.

From The Book How to live without Fear & Worry

·        Pleasure is not happiness

Sorry is he whose burden in heavy
and happy is he who has cast it down;
when once he has cast off his burden,
he will seek to be burdened no more

·        No man can across the ocean in a sailing boat by defying the wing ; instead, he must adjust his sails to the winds.

·        The man who is not at peace with himself cannot be at peace with others.

·        Nothing outside us can possibly affect us as much as what is taking place in our minds.

·        We should think that there is nothing for us to lose when others make progress.

·        During moments of success, we must recall our past failures so that we may understand better the feelings of others who have performed less well.

·        We should view things from a broader perspective by putting ourselves in the other person’s shoes.

·        If one has a fault-finding frame of mind, one will see that even a rose has it thorns.

·        If you have made a mistake, admit it and apologise for your wrong action.

·        Love has the power of influencing and changing negative thoughts into positive one.

·        The world is too dangerous to live in, not because of people who do evil but because of people who sit and let it happen.

 

Knowledge is needed for success in the world,
Meditation is needed to realise Nibbanic bliss;
Morality is necessary for both.

Your children are not your children.
They are the sons and daughters of life’s longing for itself.
They come through you but not from you.
And though they are with you yet they not belong not to you.

 

You may give them your love
But not your thoughts,
For they have their own thoughts.
You may strive to be like them,
But seek not to make them like you.

Man body will turn to dust, but his influence and services remain.

The secret of happy, successful living lies in doing what needs to be done now.

For yesterday is but a dream,
But tomorrow only a vision,
But today, well-lived, make severy yesterday
A dream of happiness,
And every tomorrow
A vision of hope and joy.
Look well then to this day

There are no star which we could trust,
There is no guiding light,
And we know that we must
Be good, be just, be right.

Do not hark back to things that have passed,
And cherish the future not yet come.
But who with vision clear cab see,
The present which is here and now,
Such a wise one should aspire to win,
What never can be lost nor shaken.

 

A life partner can die or leave them, while some children could bring more sorrow than happiness to their parents. It is not in man’s nature to appreciate anything that comes to him easily Happiness is a perfume you cannot pour on others without getting a few drops on yourself. We should not be like fish which does not know the value of water until it is taken out of it. Without virtue life is in danger, but without love life is dead. Man creates his own destiny by his own thoughts, words and deeds, and he gets back from life sooner or later what he himself has given to life. Great people always regard their body of flesh and blood as useful just for the world’s good and welfare. To a great man, his principles are far more important than his money or life. Some measure their lives by days and years, others by hearts throbs, passion and tears.
