KRISHNA-LEELA
BY DR. RAM SHARMA, MEERUT, INDIA
O! Krishna , where are you ?
You have eaten our butter and curd
Al the women gathered and asked
Searching, scolding, complaining
But Yasoda patiently heard
All of a sudden the anger in her filled
Caught Krishna by her two hands and scolded
Krishna refused and denied
O! mother, I havn`t eaten butter and curd
----THE MOTHER OF LORD KRISHNA WAS DEVAKI BUT HE WAS BROUGHT UP BY YASODA

LIFE`S ODYSSEY
BY DR. RAM SHARMA, MEERUT, INDIA
I am progressing
On life`s odyssey

KRISHNA- KRISHNA
BY DR. RAM SHARMA, MEERUT, INDIA
Little Krishna walks here and there
Roar of cries and laughter everywhere
Shine of bliss of peacock feather
Krishna`s little teeth create wonder

Shower her love , nectar of kisses
My little Krishna – my Kanhaiyya
God is the creativity ,
To enter into the world of God is,
To learn the ways of creativity.-------Osho

Distributed spell of happiness
Among rags of sadness
Yama- 1st step of Raj Yoga:- Practice of Truthfulness, Non Stealing, Non-Injury, Chaity, and non receiving of gifts. The idea behind last practice is that the mind of person who receives gifts is acted on by the mind of the giver. Receiving gifts destroy the independence by putting him under obligation to the giver. Understand the 1st step and be ready for the next.
Niyama - 2nd Step - Consists of practice of Cleanliness of body and Purity of mind, Contentment, Ausirity without going to extremes or weakening the body and mind. Study of Spiritual Wisdom, and devotion to GOD. (It does not mean that one should be contented with a lot of people who are in unfortunate circumstances). Understand the 2nd step and be ready for next ... ♥
ONE TRUTH
BY DR. RAM SHARMA , MEERUT , INDIA
One truth
To make familiar of unfamiliar
One work
To move the cycle of change
One effort
To steal the brightness of a pearl
One illusion
To show friendship by faces
One question
To unmask the faces
One truth
To drink the poison of naked life
HEIGHTS
Mind has returned
to its usual self
after crossing pathways
it travelled and lost itself,
like paperboat,
like a kite in the sky,
after achieving unassailable heights
About Pipal tree has been said in Bhagvad Gita 26 th chapter

Beauty of Lord Shiva
By Dr. Ram Sharma, Meerut, India
Ash-smeared body
Draped with a lion skin
The moon on his forehead
The Ganges as his crown
Garland of skulls round his neck
Beeds of rudrakshas on his chest
Snakes round his neck
Spirituality in eyes
Meditating for the welfare of the world
ASVADHATOYA PRAVAHATIM NADHYA SAMUNDRMASADHYA BHAVATYAPEYA, GUNA GUNGYESHU GUNAH BHAVANTI , TE NIRGUNAH PRAPYA BHAVANTI DOSHA MEANS ---Rivers always flow with soft sweet water but when these mingle with the sea the water of these rivers become salty and of no use for drinking.Those who understans qualities , they only respect qualities for all others these qualities become defects.---SUBHASIT
Great Seers and We
BY DR. RAM SHARMA, MEERUT, INDIA
Great seers and we
Like bubbles
One, two and more
In this world of waters in kettle
Boiling
Ebullition and stream
Transportation from this materialistic world
Into the spiritual world
Our body a vessel to cross the ocean
To reach the shores of the eternal truth
Great Seers
Help us to feel our Atman [ true self]
Meditation
BY DR. RAM SHARMA, MEERUT, INDIA
To make mind
As calm as a lake
Stretched before you
Bubbles and waves
Floating away
By closing eyes
Separate yourself from mind
To go beyond the senses
OM, OM , AUUVVM
PRANAYAM
BY DR. RAM SHARMA, MEERUT, INDIA
Close your eyes
Picture it vividly in your imagination
Take the breath inside
Store the breath
Release it slowly
Draw it in the abdomen
Forcibly expel all the air
From the lungs
With the chanting of OM
NATRAJ
BY DR. RAM SHARMA, MEERUT, INDIA
O! Lord Shiva
Thou are first Yogi

Bless us with your
Thoughts of welfare
Radhe –Rani
BY DR. RAM SHARMA, MEERUT, INDIA
O! Radhe Rani
Again come on earth
Teach us the lesson of love
Spread the fragrance like jasmine

Thou, incense and fragrance
Thou the sweet feeling
Thou the stream
Everywhere we go
We feel the love
We feel the bliss
In every atom of the universe
What is ` I`
BY DR. RAM SHARMA, MEERUT, INDIA
Close your eyes
Ask from yourself what is ` I`
You will get your picture
That is not true ` I`
Through ` I ` you will see the universe
You are infinite ` I`
Realize your true self
You are infinite being
` I` is not matter but spirit
You are not body but soul
LORD BUDDHA
BY DR. RAM SHARMA, MEERUT, U.P.
Born as a prince
Surrounded in luxury
Couldn`t tolerate the misery of the world
Left his princess and new born son
Went in search of truth
At last attained the enlightenment
And attained enlightenment
Become BUDDHA
We are celeberating MAHASHIVRATRI tomorrow.This festival is celebrated on Chaturdashi date of Phagun in Krishnapaksha.
Shivlinga Tayod Tayodbhut samprabh , Tat Chaturdhaya Nishivyapini Grahya Shivratre tithi Means---There is no other fast full of welfare like this Fast of Mahashivratri.This fast destroys all our evils , makes us fearless and provides us enlightenment.=[Eshan Sanhita]
`` knowledge and the giver of the greatest beatitude , who is pure , perfect , one without a second , eternal , beyond pleasure and pain, beyond all thought and all qualification , transcendental-``---SWAMI VIVEKANAND I bow to the Guru who is the embodiment of the Bliss Divine, the personification of the highest
`` The man who canot write his own name can be perfectly religious, and the man with all his libraries of the world in his head may fail to be.Learning is not a condition of spiritual growth , scholarship is not a condition .The touch of Guru , the transmittal of spiritual energy , will quicken your heart .Then will begin the growth.That is the real baptism by fire. -``---SWAMI VIVEKANAND
``Children forget everything in their play.The young are mad after the enjoyment of the senses , they do not care anything else .The old are brooding over their past misdeeds.``-- ADI Shankarachaya
GOAL
BY DR. RAM SHARMA, MEERUT, INDIA
You, incarnations of God
You, incarnations of almighty
Omnipresent, Divine
Knowledge uncovered
Knowledge is God Himself
Discovering of the innate Divinity
Is the Goal
``The very rich man never walks, always goes in the carriage, but in the course of years , he wakes up one day paralysed all over. Then he begins to feel that the way he had lived was not good after all ----No man can walk for me.Everytime one did, it was to my injury.If everything is done for a man by another , he will lose the use of his limbs.Anything we do ourselves , that is the only thing we do.Anything that is done for us by another never can be ours.If you have learnt anything .I was only the spark that brought it out , made it flash.``--- SWAMI VIVEKANAND
सत्य ही कहा है....
"एषां न विद्या न तपो न दानं..ज्ञानं न शीलं न गुणों न धर्मः..?ते मर्त्यलोके भुविभारभुता....मनुष्यरुपेना मृगाश्चरन्ति..!!"
...अर्थात..ऐसे मनुष्य जिनके पास न विग्या है..न ताप है..न दान है .. न ज्ञान है..न गुन है ..और न धर्म है..वह इस मृत्युलोक में धरती पर भार-स्वरूप है..जो मानव-छोले में होकर भी पशुओ के सात रहते और उनके झुण्ड को चराते

In ancient Greece there was absolutely no difference in the state of man and woman. The idea of perfect quality existed.No Hindu can be a priest untill he is married , the idea being that a single man is only half a man , and imperfect .The idea of perfect womanhood is perfect independence.------- .``--- SWAMI VIVEKANAND
Like so many rivers flowing from different mountains , all coming and mingling their waters in the sea , all the different religions , taking their births from different standpoints of fact , come unto thee- -----------SWAMI VIVEKANAND
THOU
BY DR. RAM SHARMA, MEERUT, U.P
Thou the body
Thou the soul
Thou art thy greatest friend
Thou art thy greatest enemy
Thou has element of goodness in you
Thou has element of badness in you
Thou are the master
Thou are the servant
Make yourself a flute
With emotions, sensations
And sing the song of Life
SHIVLINGNNNTAYODBHUTAH NKOTISURYASAMPRABH , TATKALVYAPINI GRAHYA SHIVRATRIVRATE TITHI MEANS--Shiv is itself ALINGA so by Himself Linga is created .So the shape of whole universe is Shivlinga .This Shivalinga is worshipped from ancient ages .-------OM NAMAH SHIVAY
BUBBLE
BY DR. RAM SHARMA, MEERUT, INDIA
i am just a bubble
only a bubble
not more than a bubble
no existence
no name

i am just a bubble
only a bubble
not more than a bubble
no existence
no name

this body
Have to roll in dust
Like a bubble
Anger and intolerance are the twin enemies of correct understanding.-------Mahatma Gandhi
I was convinced that I was not born like ordinary people to earn money and maintain a family , much less strive for sense-pleasures.I began secretaly to prepare myself to renounce the world like my grandfather.--------------SWAMI VIVEKANAND
`My friend, I thought you were a sage, but you talk like other men of the world`. The mind has been given to the lord.Do you mean to say that I should take it back and put it upon the body which is but a mere cage of the soul ----- SWAMI RAMKRISHNAPARAMHANS
Neither through wealth nor through progency , but through renunciation alone , is immortality to be reached ` say the Vedas `` Sell all that thou has and give to the poor and follow me` says the Christ .So all great saints and prophets have expressed it , and have carried it out in their lives.---------------------------------SWAMI VIVEKANAND
I have not the slightest qualm to beg from door to door for this noble cause, for the sake of my Lord and his children.-----To my mind , if all these sincere , educated , youthful Sannyasins of good birth fail to live up to the ideals of SriRamakrishna owing to want of an abode and help , then alas for our country.--------------- SWAMI VIVEKANAND
We are all travelling in this mirage of the world day after day , month after month , year after year , not knowing that it is a mirage .One day it will break up , but it will come back again , the body has to remain under the power of past Karma , and so the mirage will come back.--------------------- SWAMI VIVEKANAND
It is selfishness that we must seek to eliminate .I find that whenever I have made a mistake in my life, it has always been because self entered into the calculation. Where self has not been involved , my judgement has gone straight to the mark.------ SWAMI VIVEKANAND
Young men claiming to be the fathers of tomorrow should be the salt of the nation .If the salt loses its flavor wherewith shall it be salted -----MAHATMA GANDHI
BOAT OF MY LIFE

In this world take always the position of the giver.Give everything and look for no return. Give love, give help, give service , give any little thing you can, but keep out barter.Make no conditions , and none will be imposed .Let us give out of our own bounty, just as God gives to us.The Lord is only Giver, all the men in the world are only shopkeepers.Get His cheque , and it must be honoured everywhere.------------SWAMI VIVEKANAND
PART AND PARCEL
BY DR. RAM SHARMA, MEERUT, INDIA
Set a bigger goal for you
Have a larger heart
Look at the ocean
Not at the wave
Don`t differentiate between ant and angel
Between greater or less
We are all part and parcel
Of ALMIGHTY
This universe is our body
INFINITE
BY DR. RAM SHARMA, MEERUT, INDIA
All bodies are thine bodies
But still thou has no body
All hands are thine hands
But still thou has no hands
All eyes are thine eyes
But still thou has no eyes
All creations your own creations
All are thine own manifestations
O! Lord thou are infinite
ABSOLUTE
BY DR. RAM SHARMA, MEERUT, INDIA
Love is beyond time and space
Love is beyond body
Love is beyond egoism
Love is beyond barriers
Love is absolute
Suppose one of you mothers, a weak woman, see a tiger in the street snatching your child . I know where you will be , you will face the tiger .Another time a dog appears in the street , and you will fly.But you jump at the mouth of the tiger and snatch your child away .Love knows no fear .It conquers all evil.The fear of God is the beginning of religion , but the love of God is the end of religion .All fear has died out.-----------SWAMI VIVEKANAND
Love can never be the means , it must be the perfect end.What is the end and aim of love ? To love God , that is all. Why should one love God ? [ There is } no why, because it is not the means.When one can love, that is salvation , that is perfection , that is heaven .What more ? What else can be the end ? What can you have higher than love ?---------------------SWAMI VIVEKANAND
LOVE
BY DR. RAM SHARMA , MEERUT, INDIA
Love created by separation
Separation between soul and man
Between soul and God
Between lover and beloved
We are all one
We have one entity
Alas! We are separated
To love Our maker
Love is
Eternal, endless sacrifice
We want
One kiss of Thou
We want love of Thine
All science has its particular methods, so has the science of religion .It has more methods also, because it has more material to work upon. The human mind is not homogenous like the external world. According to the different nature , there must be different methods .As some special sense predominates in a person—one person will see most , another will hear most—so there is a predominant mental sense , and through this gate must each reach his own mind .Yet through all minds runs a unity , and there is a science which may be applied to all----------------------------Swami Vivekanand
WORSHIP
BY DR. RAM SHARMA , MEERUT, INDIA
Worship for him
Who hates you
Worship for him
Who is doing evil for you
Worship for him
Who alone stands for you
Worship for him
Who never leaves you
Worship for him
Who saves you
Worship for him
Who worships you
Christianity teaches us to love our neighbours as we should wish them to love us, Hinduism asks us to love them as ourselves , in fact to see ourselves in them.--------------------------Swami Vivekanand
There is no possibility of ever having pleasure without pain, good without evil, for living itself is just the lost equilibrium.What we want is freedom , not life , nor pleasure nor good .Creation is infinite , without beginning and without end – the ever moving ripple in an infinite lake-----------SWAMI VIVEKANAND
Give all to the Lord and go on and think not of it .The whole soul pours in a continuous current to God , there is no time to seek money , or name , or fame , no time to think of anything but God , then will come into our hearts that infinite , wonderful bliss of Love .All desires are but beads of glass .Love of God increases every moment and is ever new , to be known only by feeling it.---------------------Swami Vivekanand
After every happiness comes misery , they may be far apart or near.The more advanced the soul, the more quickly does one follow the other.What we want is neither happiness nor misery, both are chains –one iron , one gold, behind both is the Atman, who knows neither happiness nor misery.----------------------Swami Vivekanand
Our best work is done , our greatest influence is exerted , when we are without thought of self. All great geniuses know this. Let us open ourselves to the one Divine actor , and let Him act, and do nothing ourselves.--------------Swami Vivekananda
The purer the mind , the easier it is to control.Purity of the mind must be insisted upon if you would control it. Do not think covetously about mental powers. Let them go .One who seeks the powers of the mind succumbs to them .Almost all who desire powers become ensnared by them.------------------SWAMI VIVEKANAND
I AM THINE
BY DR. RAM SHARMA , MEERUT, INDIA
I have drank
The cup of love
Of thine
I have become mad
In the love of thine
I am part of thou
I have forgotten all
I have plunged in thou
Because
I am Thine
I am Thine
O! LORD I WANT THEE
BY DR. RAM SHARMA, MEERUT, INDIA
I want
neither nectar
Nor poison
I want
neither money
Nor power
I want
Neither name
Nor fame
I want
Satisfaction
I want
Peace and calm inside
I want
Refuge in Thou
O ! Lord , I want thee
Not one can be happy until all are happy .When you hurt anyone you hurt yourself, for you and your brother are one .He is indeed a Yogi who sees himself in the whole universe and the whole universe in himself .-------Swami Vivekanand
How quickly we weary of earthly pleasures! Desire for material things is endless , man is never satisfied completely , and pursues one goal after another.The ` Something else` he seeks is the Lord , who alone can grant lasting joy.-----------------PARAMAHANSA YOGANANDA
God is Love , His plan for creation can be rooted only in love .--------- PARAMAHANSA YOGANANDA
We are celeberating World Woman Day ----March 8
Yatra Nariyeshte Pujyante -- Ramante Tatra Devta----Means Where women are respected Gods dwell
The ordinary Sannyasin gives up the world, goes out , and thinks of God.The real Sannyasin lives in the world, but is not of it.Those who deny themselves , live in the forest , and chew the cud of unsatisfied desires are not true renouncers .Live in the midst of the battle of life.Anyone can keep calm in a cave or when asleep.Stand in the whirl and madness of action and reach the centre .If you have found the Centre , you cannot be moved.-------------------Swami Vivekananda

Infinite power is back
We are immortal knowledge
Beyond the senses
O! Light of the world

No man should be judged by his defects. The great virtues a man has are his especially , his errors are the common weaknesses of humanity and should never be counted in estimating his character.---------------Swami Vivekananda
Yoga is the science of restraining the mind from breaking into modifications.Mind is a mixture of sensation and feelings , or action and reaction , so it can not be permanent.The mind has a fine body and through this it works on the gross body .Vedanta says that behind the mind is the real self.-----------------Swami Vivekananda
The whole secret of existence is to have no fear.Never fear what will become of you , depend on no one.Only the moment you reject all help are you free. The full sponge can absorb no more----Swami Vivekananda
``Thine am I for ever, henceforth whatever I do, it is Thou doing it.No more is there any me or mine.Having no money to give, no brains to learn , no time to practice Yoga, to Thee , O sweet One , I give myself to Thee my body and mind.``---------------------Swami Vivekananda
I AM THE ATMAN
BY DR. RAM SHARMA, MEERUT, INDIA
I am free
From any bondages
There are no illusions
I am the immortal knowledge
I am the Infinite
I am the Atman
I am the essence of bliss
Meditation is the arrow , the whole soul going out to God is the bow, which speeds the arrow to its mark , the Atman .As finite , we can never express the Infinite , but we are the Infinite .Knowing this we argue with no more.----------------Swami Vivekananda
Well, you consider a man as educated if only he can pass some examinations and deliver good lectures. The education which does not help the common mass of people to equip themselves for the struggle for life, which does not bring out strength of character, a spirit of philanthropy, and the courage of lion- is it worth the name?
Real education is that which enables one to stand on one's own legs. The education that you are receiving now in schools and colleges is only making you a race of dyspeptics, you are working like machines merely, and living a jelly-fish existence."

you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.
If you are honest, people may cheat you. Be honest anyway.
If you find happiness, people may be jealous. Be happy anyway.
The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough. Give your best anyway.
For you see, in the end, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway."
~Mother Teresa

The topic of his American experiences came up.Swamiji said `` In that country the women are more learned than men. They are all well versed in science and philosophy, and that is why they would appreciate and honour me so much. The men are grinding all day at their work and have very little leisure, whereas the women, by studying and teaching in the schools and colleages , have become highly learned.Whichever side you turn your eyes in America , you see the power and influence of women.-----Swami Vivekananda------Women Empowerment-------an example---
OM DHO SHANTIRANTRIKSHA SHANTI PRITHVI SHANTIRAPAH SHANTIROSHDHYA SHANTI BANASPATYA SHANTI VISHVE DEVA ------There should be peace everywhere in sky, on earth in water in all botanical plants and everywhere on earth.
WHAT IS OUR AIM OF LIFE ?
BY DR. RAM SHARMA , MEERUT, INDIA
One question is haunting me again and again
What is the aim of our life ?
Is it just to earn money ?
Everyone is running in this blind race
Race of earning money
All our sensibilities have disappeared
There remains no difference between man and animal
What is the aim of our life ?
We don`t know
Peace emanates from the soul, and is the sacred inner environment in which true happiness unfolds.------------------Paramahansa Yogananda

Never believe that you live by the power of food and not by the power of God! He who has created every form of nourishment , He who has bestowed appetite , will ultimately see that His devotee is maintained.Do not imagine that rice sustains you nor that money or men support you.------------------- ---Paramhansa Yogananda
Ordinary love is selfish , darkly rooted in desires and satisfaction. Divine love is without condition , without boundary .The flux of the human heart is gone forever at the transfixing touch of pure love.------------- Paramhansa Yogananda

You read in the Sermon on the Mount `` Ask , and it shall be given you, and ye shall find , knock , and it shall be opened unto you`` . The difficulty is, who seeks, who wants ? We all say we know God .One man writes a book to disapprove God , another to prove Him.One man thinks it is his duty to prove Him all his life , another to disapprove Him, and he goes about to teach man there is no God .What is the use of writing a book either to prove or disapprove God ?What does it matter to most people whether there is a God or not ? The majority of men work like a machine with no thought of God and feeling no need of Him``----------------------------Swami Vivekananda
One star arises , another bigger one comes , and then a still bigger one, and at last the sun comes , and all the lesser lights vanish.The sun is God .The stars are smaller loves. When that sun burst upon him , a man becomes mad , what Emerson calls `` a God-intoxicated man`` .Man becomes transfigured into God , everything is merged in that one ocean of love .------------------------Swami Vivekananda
Two classes of men do not worship God as man – the human brute who has no religion , and the Paramhansa [ Highest Yogi] who has gone beyond humanity , who has thrown off his mind and body and gone beyond the limits of nature.-----------------Swami Vivekananda
Therefore in the teacher of spirituality , purity is the one thing indispensible , we must see first what he is , and then what he says .Not so with intellectual teachers , there we care more for what he says than what he is.------------------------Swami Vivekananda
God has given you mental dynamite sufficient to destroy all your difficulties .Remember that it is the most effective force you can use to be victorious in life, to break free of limiting weaknesses and habits into all accomplishing expansion of your consciousness.---------------Paramahansa Yogananda
We should try to spread love among human beings just like sandal tree spreads fragrance even if it is cut into pieces it never looses its character.LLOVE ALL--- SERVE ALL------R.S
The greatest gift I have to bestow on those I love , Thy devotees , is awakening Thy love in their hearts , for Thy love`s sake.--------------------------- Paramahansa Yogananda
Is there a force that we can call upon to give health , happiness , and spiritual enlightenment ?The saints and sages of India teach that there is such a power.----------------- Paramahansa Yogananda
RELIGION
BY DR. RAM SHARMA , MEERUT, INDIA
Realization
Of humanly qualities
Of pains of others
Living for others
It is something
That we feel inside

To help mankind
Your spirit should not be moved, no evil
word should escape your lips; you should
remain benevolent, with your heart full of
love and void of secret of malice; and you
should enfold even these malefactors with
loving thoughts, with thoughts generous, deep
and limitless, purged of all anger and hate.
- Buddha

A fool indeed is he who, living on the banks of the Ganga , seeks to dig a\ little well for water.A fool indeed is the man who, living near a mine of diamonds , spends his life in searching for beads of glass.God is that mine of diamonds. We are fools indeed to give up God for legends of ghosts or flying hobgoblins.------------Swami Vivekananda

It is a morbid desire with us to multiply our wants.We have become so unhinged and unnatural that nothing natural will satisfy us. We are always grasping after morbid things , must have unnatural excitement ---unnatural food , drink , surroundings and life .As to fear , what are our lives but bundles of fear ?The deer has only one class of fear, such as that from tigers , wolves etc .Man has the whole universe to fear.----Swami Vivekanand
