A man was walking past a young girl, when a jagged edge of his briefcase accidentally tore her mini skirt.

He is dead
She is in jail
What went wrong
Where did they fail?

They were both middle class
In a way they were the same
Bright and intelligent
Just looking for money and fame.

They just chose the wrong set
Of people around them
So totally unaware that
It could lead to mayhem

The glitz misled them
The ‘friends’ were all fake
Dope and substance abuse
All for ‘keeping up’ sake

The big guys are out there
Having parties and fun
Who cares if families are broken
They are safe, they do not have to run

So maybe we should tell our kids
To dream and dream high
But check their own parachutes
Before they take off for the sky.

If you don’t want to look at the pain that’s fine; then look at the mind. You must start looking at the mind the moment that the pain begins, not when it’s already very strong, because then it’ll be too difficult to be able to watch the mind.

Watch the mind, the way it reacts, the way it feels, the way it speaks to you. Then you’ll find that the pain disappears. (This also works with likes and dislikes).

To be able to look in the mind you have to be more skillful, because it is not as easy as looking at the pain, which is very obvious.

If you look in the mind and you still see the pain, change and look at the discomfort of the situation.

There are many different levels of discomfort that you can look at, there. Just choose one. With pain the most important thing is to relax, clear the mind, do not allow agitation to reach high levels.

If you choose to watch the painful sensation, then just relax into it.
Don’t use the word ‘pain’ for noting it. It will only make things worse. Don’t think ‘this is pain’, you don’t even think at all.

You are just with it relaxing into it.

You might have realized by now that ‘pain’ or any other
sensation is not ‘Yours’, does not in any way belong to you. It is only sensation, just sensation going its own way. You don’t think about ‘You’. If you practice this way you will find it is not that difficult either.

On a lighter note....

_*The Arrogance of Authority*_

_A drugs squad officer stopped at a farm near Bradford, and talked with an old farmer._

_He told the farmer, "I need to inspect your farm for illegally grown drugs."_

_The farmer said, "Okay, but don't go in that field over there...", as he pointed out the location._

_The drugs squad officer verbally exploded saying, "Mister, I have the authority of the Government with me."_

_Reaching into his rear trouser pocket, he removed his badge and proudly displayed it to the farmer._

_"See this badge?! This badge means I am allowed to go wherever I wish. On any land!! No questions asked or answers given!! Have I made myself clear. Do you understand?"_

_The old farmer nodded politely, apologized, and went about his chores._

_A short time later, the old farmer heard loud screams, looked up, and saw the drugs squad officer running for his life, being chased by the farmer's big ferocious looking bull..._

_With every step the bull was gaining ground on the officer, and it seemed likely that he'd sure enough get gored before he reached safety. The officer was clearly terrified._

_The old farmer threw down his tools, ran to the fence and shouted at the top of his lungs..._

_(I just love this part.)_

Cape Town's uneducated surgeon Mr. Hamilton, who was awarded the honorary degree of Master of Medicine who could neither read nor write let's see how this is possible.
Cape Town Medical University has a leading position in the medical world.
The world's first bypass operation took place at the same university.

Master of Medicine awarded the honorary degree of who has never seen the face of school in his life.
Who could read an English word and could not write .....

But one morning in 2003, world-renowned surgeon Professor David Dent announced in the university auditorium: "Today we are awarding an honorary degree in medicine to the man who produced the most surgeons in the world." Who is an extraordinary teacher, and an amazing surgeon, and who studied medical science and surprised the human mind.

With this announcement, the professor took the name "Hamilton" and the entire auditorium stood and greeted the cross.

It was the biggest reception in the history of this university.

Hamilton was born in Sanitani, a remote village in Cape Town. His parents were shepherds, he wore goat skin, and he walked in the mountains barefoot all day, as a child, his father fell ill, so he left the sheep and goats and moved to Cape Town. Construction was underway at the University of Cape Town in those days.
He joined the university as a labourer. He would send home as much money as he could get after a hard day's work and he used to sleep in the open ground by chewing gram himself.
He worked as a laborer for many years. The construction process ended

He got the job of mowing the tennis court, ........
He arrives at the tennis court every day and starts mowing the lawn. ......

He did this for three years ...
Then came a strange turn in his life
And
He reached a point in medical science where no one else has ever been.

It was a mild, warm morning. "Professor Robert Joyce, researching giraffes, wanted to see:

"When a giraffe bends its neck to drink water, why doesn't it have a seizure?"

They laid a giraffe on the operating table, knocked him unconscious, but as soon as the operation started, the giraffe shook its head. So they needed a strong man to keep the giraffe's neck tight during the operation.

The professor came out of the theatre, 'Hamilton' was mowing the lawn in front, the professor saw that he was a healthy young man of strong stature. They beckoned him and ordered him to grab the giraffe's neck. "Hamilton" grabbed his neck.

The operation lasted eight hours. During this time, the doctor continued to take tea and coffee breaks, however "Hamilton" he stood holding the giraffe's neck. When the operation was over, he quietly went out and started mowing the lawn.

The next day the professor called him again, he came and grabbed the giraffe's neck and stood up, after which it became his routine. , He worked double for many months,
And he demanded some additional compensation for this duty and nor did he complain.

Professor Robert Joyce was impressed by his perseverance and sincerity and "Hamilton" is promoted from a mowing the tennis court to "lab assistant." He now came to the university, went to the operating theatre and helped the surgeons. This process continued for years.

In 1958 came another turning point in his life. This year Dr. Bernard came to the university and started heart transplant operations.

"Hamilton" became his assistant, during these operations, he went from assistant to additional surgeon.

Now the doctors operate and after the operation, he was given the task of stitching. He used to do excellent stitches. His fingers were clean and fast. He stitched fifty people in one day. While working in the operating theatre, he began to understand the human body more than surgeons . So the senior doctors gave him the responsibility of teaching the junior doctors.

He now began teaching surgery techniques to junior doctors. He gradually became the most important figure in the university. He was unfamiliar with the terms of medical science. But he was the best surgeon in the world.

The third turning point in his life came in 1970, when research on the liver began this year and he identified one such liver artery during surgery. ..... which made liver transplantation easier.

His remarks astonished the great minds of medical science.

Today, when a person has a liver operation in some corner of the world and the patient opens his eyes and sees the light the reward for this successful operation goes directly to "Hamilton".

"Hamilton" achieved this position with sincerity and perseverance. He was associated with the University of Cape Town for 50 years, in those 50 years he never took a vacation.
He would leave home at three o'clock at night, walk 14 miles to the university, and he would enter the theatre at exactly six o'clock. People used to fix their watches with his time.

He received an honour that no one in medical science has ever received.

He was the first illiterate teacher of medical history.
He was the first illiterate surgeon to train 30,000 surgeons in his lifetime.
He died in 2005 and was buried at the university and
It was then made compulsory for surgeons to pass out from the university after obtaining that degree go to his grave, take a picture and then get into practical life .... ”

*"You know how he got this position."*

*"Only one yes."*

The day he was called to the operating theatre to grab the giraffe's neck if he had refused that day, if he had said that day, I am a Grounds Maintenance Worker, my job is not to hold the giraffe's neck

It was a yes and an extra eight hours of hard work that opened the door to success for him and he became a surgeon.

"Most of us have been looking for a job all our lives. While we must find work. "

Every job in the world has one criteria and job is available only to those who meet the criteria while if you wanted to do work, you could start any work in the world in a few minutes and no power in the world would be able to stop you.

"Hamilton" had found the secret, he gave important to work rather than job. Thus it changed the history of medical science.

Imagine if he applied for a surgeon's job could he have become a surgeon? Never, but he put the hoe down and hold the giraffe's neck and became surgeon.

There are unemployed people fail because they just look for a job, not for a work.

Will share a small story that Wise man shared:

"As we think, so we become" said Lord Buddha. "Sow a thought and….reap a destiny" .

A king was touring his kingdom on his elephant. Suddenly he stopped in front of a shop in the market and said to his minister, "I don't know why, but I want to hang the owner of this shop." The minister was shocked. But before he could ask the king why, the king had moved on. The next day, the minister went to that shop dressed as one of the locals to see the shopkeeper. He casually asked him how his business was faring. The shopkeeper, a sandalwood merchant, reported sadly that he had hardly any customer. People would come to his shop, smell the sandalwood and then go away. They would even praise the quality of the sandalwood but rarely buy anything. His only hope was that the king would die soon. Then there would be a huge demand for sandalwood for performing his last rites. As he was the only sandalwood merchant around, he was sure the king's death would mean a windfall.

The minister now understood why the king had stopped in front of this shop and expressed a desire to kill the shopkeeper. Perhaps, the shopkeeper's negative thought vibration had subtly affected the king, who had, in turn, felt the same kind of negative thought arising within.

The minister; a noble man, pondered over the matter for a while. Without revealing who he was or what had happened the day before, he expressed a desire to buy some sandalwood. The shopkeeper was pleased. He wrapped the sandalwood and handed it over to the minister.

When the minister returned to the palace, he went straight to the court where the king was seated and reported that the sandalwood merchant had a gift for him. The king was surprised. When he opened the package, he was pleasantly surprised by the fine golden color of the sandalwood and its agreeable fragrance. Pleased, he sent some gold coins to the sandalwood merchant. The king also felt sorry in his heart that he had harboured unbecoming thoughts of killing the shopkeeper.

When the shopkeeper received the gold coins from the king, he was astounded. He began to proclaim the virtues of the king who had, through the gold coins, saved him from the brink of poverty. After some time, he recalled the morbid thoughts he had felt towards the king, and repented for having entertained such negative thoughts for his own personal goal.

If we have a good and kind thought for another person, that positive thought will come back to us in a favorable way. But if we harbor evil thoughts, those thoughts will come back to us as retribution.

"What is Karma?" asked wise man .

Many replied, "our words, our deeds, our feelings, our actions......"

Wise man shook his head and said

"Your thoughts are your Karma!"

DOES UNIVERSE HAVE A SOUND ?

Everyday as the first light of dawn strikes the earth, the world comes alive with chirping of birds, humming of bees and the cacophony of human voices.

As the day progresses the sound keeps increasing with factories and workplaces buzzing with activity. The vehicles on the road add to the din. There is a constant noise of some form or the other in the environment. Even in places devoid of human settlement there is sound though much more subtle like the sound of the wind or dust storm or of the waves of the sea.

As the night closes in and sunlight fades away a strange silence descends almost as if the world has lost its voice. By mid night there is a deathly quiet. An eeriness and a strange calm without sound.

So the earth has a sound. It has an audible decibel limit which rises and fades in a rythmic tempo day after day.

And I wonder ... does the universe also have a sound ? Millions and millions of solar systems, billions of galaxies and zillions of planets, suns and satellite all rotating and revolving around each other. How much sound would that create? It would be defeaning. But is there sound ? Does the universe have a voice or is it a figment of my imagination? If there is sound why can I not hear it ? Am I too focussed on the sounds around me that I can’t hear the Universe or Does the Universe have no sound at all ?

Is it just cold, dark and silent space across billions of cosmic miles ? Or is there a cacophony, a deafening noise of turning and churning of unimaginable huge chunks of rocks, minerals and gases reverberating through the universe. How come don’t we hear it ?

Is it all silent there ? Has the Universe no sound at all ? .... Is it a SILENT UNIVERSE ?
