My Random thoughts

Dear Readers,

I have been thinking of writing posts on positive thoughts which could bring peace of mind and life balance to all. In this humble venture, I set out to write some notes on various life lesson topics with references from scriptures, Gurbani and my own experience.  I wish and pray for your Peace, Prosperity and Good health.

Best Wishes

‘Masks’

“We all wear Masks,
Sometimes to hide one’s True-Self from others,
Sometimes to cover our weaknesses,
At times to Identify with someone, one cannot be.
Many a times to gain confidence and self esteem.
Yes , we do wear Masks all the time!!
Sometimes, I get sick of wearing a Mask,
O Lord, give me courage to shed my mask,
And strength to be my Original-Self. ”

 ‘Power of the Lord’

A beautiful excerpt from Guru Granth Sahib explaining Power of the Lord.
A nice thought to start one’s day.
” If I were to study thousands of learned books,
And understand all their import;
If I were to write with an ocean of ink
And with the speed of the wind;
I would still be unable, O God,
To estimate Your value,
Or say how great is Your name!
(Page 15. Guru Granth Sahib)

‘Competition’

Be good, be kind and be forgiving to others. Do not compare and compete
with others rather compete with yourself, improve your own performance.
Every man is unique endowed with special and specific qualities. Thank
Lord for what you have. Follow theses and you would get internal peace and bliss.

‘A Poem sung by Hans Raj Hans depicting Art of Living’

ज़िंदगी दी है तो, जीने का हुनर भी देना,
पअव बक्शे हैं तो, तैफिके सफर भी देना,
ज़ुबान तूने ही बक्शी है, मैं तो गूँगा था,
अब जो मैं बोलूंगा, तो बातों में असर भी देना!
मेरे अन्धे ख्वाबों को, उसूलों का तराजू देदे,
मेरे मोला, मुझे जस्बात पे काबू देदे!
मुझे समुंदर भी बेहक मिलें, मैं ना लूँ,
और मेहनत का हर कतरा ही समुंदर है, जो तू देदे!

Thank you readers, shall be back soon.
