How do you see life

Japanese English

japanese funny english @ Yahoo! Video

Know Yourself

Who Is God?

Your Higher Self

You are a mystery

Living the mystery of life

Purpose of words is to create silence.

Does every word you speak create silence
in others or does it create turbulence in their minds?

Purpose of knowledge
is to make you feel that you don't know!
If the knowledge makes you feel that
you know it all,
then it has not fulfilled its goal.
The more you know,
the more you become aware of the unknown.
Knowing is just pushing the brick
a little further towards ignorance. Before,
you thought that you had less ignorance
and now you know that you have more ignorance.
Purpose of knowledge
is to create awareness of the Being.
This creation is enormous and infinite.
It is a mystery.
Mysteries
are there not to understand,

but to live.
Love is a mystery,
sleep is a mystery,
your mind is mystery
and all that you see around is a mystery.
Your life is a mystery.
Trying to understand mystery is confusion,
but living it fully is called enlightenment.

There is one
''I don't know''
that comes out of ignorance.
This is an ugly
''I don't know''.
Then it passes through knowledge and becomes a transformed
''I don't know!''.
This is a beautiful
''I don't know!''
which is a wonder.
This is how every question turns into a wonder.
What is the difference between
a wonder and a question?
Question is associated with sorrow and
restlessness whereas wonder is joy in expression.

What is your life?
After all,
how many years are you planning to be here in this planet?
Look in the light of the time.
In the time scale,
millions of years have passed and millions
will come in the future.
What is your life?
60 years or 70 years or 100 years?
Span of life is insignificant.
It is not even a drop in the ocean.
In terms of space you simply don't exist!
This understanding dissolves the ego.

Ego

is ignorance of your reality,
ignorance of your existence.
Now,
just to know this do
we have to do some thing else?

Just open your eyes and see,

''Who am I?

How I am on this planet?

What is my life time?''.

Awareness dawns in the mind.
It does not worry about small little things like,
''this person said this thing to me and
that person broke away with me and this
happened with that person
and I am going to say this and that''.
All smallness will simply drop
away with this beautiful
''I don't know!''

Ignorance has its necessity.
Ignorance keeps the joy in the game.
In a game if you know the result before you
are playing you won't be playing sincerely.
If you know you are going to win a game you won't
put your 100 percent in the game.
If you know that you are going to lose a game,
then also there is no charm in playing the game.
The game is joyful when its results are unknown,
when they are hidden away...
The nature is so kind and loving to you that it does not
tell you about your future and
does not remind you of your very old past.
But,
even with the short little memory it has given us

we try hard to make our self miserable!

When the state of
''I don't know''
passes through knowledge,
you are delivered in another state of
''I don't know!''...
That is a beautiful
''I don't know!''
and that is the end of knowledge.
So the whole journey is from
''I don't know'' to ''I don't know!''.
There is a saying that before enlightenment
you chop wood and carry water and after
enlightenment you chop wood and carry water.
But
with a slight difference;
before it was a miserable
''I don't know''
afterwards it's a beautiful
''I don't know!''.
Every knowledge whether scientific or artistic

leaves you in a place of amazement and wonder.
You ask a poet,
''How did you write this poetry?''
He will say,
''I don't know!''.

You ask a scientist,
''How did you discover this?''.
He will say,
''Oh! I don't know!''.
This
''I don't know!''
level of consciousness is innocence.

Some of you might have the problem
that the mind goes round and round.
This is because you want to know all the time.
Just remain in
''I don't know'',
the mind becomes quiet.
Knowledge is like a detergent agent.
You put the soap on the cloth,
but wash it away.
You never say,
''it is a wonderful detergent soap,
let it remain on my body''.

All our struggle is to know more,
know more, know more..
you are trying your level best to understand
your feelings and your emotions and you
get into more and more and more confusion.
This is what has happened with psychology today.
It tries to explain to you why you feel

like the way you are feeling.
The
''why''
question arises always
when you are unhappy.
You say
''why this problem to me on earth of all the people?''...
Nobody ever asked,
''why am I so happy?''
or
''why is there so much joy
and beauty in the world?''.
You want to understand,
''why am I not feeling good?''
or
''why am I angry?'',
or
''why is this not happening?''.

The more you try to understand
and try to dig it,

you seem to understand less and less.
The mystery deepens,
but an illusion comes as though
''I know it''.
But that's for a short while.
We ourselves do not know and
we try to explain to others!
Stop your explanations;
your explanations have put you into a soup
and make other people also more confused.
You don't know what is happening in your mind.
Mind is like a rollercoaster — it's a crowd.
Something comes up sometime
and then some other thing pops up.

Just be in the simple and innocent state of
''I don't know!''.
This life is a mystery — beautiful — live it.
Living the mystery of life so totally is joy.
Becoming the mystery is divine.

You are a mystery!

Dare To Dream And Stay Focus

Enjoy life by enjoying the fair sceneries.

The best things in life are free.

Great inspiration could come your way from nature’s lovely sceneries,

but you should watch your steps ever so often,

or else there is a danger of falling.

No one is insignificant in God's eye

No one is insignificant in God's eyes, and His care for sparrows, finches, eagles, and elephants is a constant reminder that He cares for you, and for me. What He makes, He cherishes.

Consider the elephants of the Pavilion Hotel in Phuket, Thailand, where one of the most popular attractions is an elephant ride. As many as eight people on one elephant, first into the surrounding forest, then down to the beach, to lunch at a fresh water lagoon, then back to the hotel. "Our nine elephants," writes Pavilion Hotel Group manager Jim France, "are kept chained to in-ground posts, not because they need to be, but because it makes the tourists feel better because their children seem safe from a tromping when they're feeding the beasts."

"About twenty minutes before the first wave of the recent Tsunami hit, the elephants became extremely agitated and unruly. Four had just returned from a trip and their handler's had not yet chained them. In a desperate panic, the four elephants helped the other five tear free from their chains. They all then climbed a hill and started bellowing. Many people followed them up the hill. Then the waves hit."

"After the waves subsided, the elephants charged down from the hill, and started picking up children with their trunks and running them back up the hill. When all the children were taken care of, they started helping the adults." "God's elephants" rescued forty-two people that day. Then, they returned to the beach and carried up four dead bodies, including one of a child. Not until the task was done did they allow their handlers to mount them. Then, with handlers atop, they began moving wreckage.

So remember, whatever God makes, He cherishes. Including elephants, sparrows, and you. . Especially you!

SERINITY

Living one day at a time

Enjoying one moment at a time

Accepting hardship as the pathway to peace

Taking as He did, this sinful world as it is,

not as I would have it

Trusting that He will make all things right

if I surrender to His Will

That I may be reasonably happy in this life

and supremely happy with Him in the next

- Reinhold Niebuhr

Tragedy or a Blessing?

Years ago in Scotland, the Clark family had a dream. Clark and his wife worked and saved, making plans for their nine children and themselves to travel to the United States. It had taken years, but they had finally saved enough money and had gotten passports and reservations for the whole family on a new liner to the United States.

The entire family was filled with anticipation and excitement about their new life. However, seven days before their departure, the youngest son was bitten by a dog. The doctor sewed up the boy but hung a yellow sheet on the Clarks' front door. Because of the possibility of rabies, they were being quarantined for fourteen days.

The family's dreams were dashed. They would not be able to make the trip to America as they had planned. The father, filled with disappointment and anger, stomped to the dock to watch the ship leave - without the Clark family. The father shed tears of disappointment and cursed both his son and God for their misfortune.

Five days later, the tragic news spread throughout Scotland - the mighty Tittanic had sunk. The unsinkable ship had sunk, taking hundreds of lives with it. The Clark family was to have been on that ship, but because the son had been bitten by a dog, they were left behind in Scotland.

When Mr. Clark heard the news, he hugged his son and thanked him for saving the family. He thanked God for saving their lives and turning what he had felt was a tragedy into a blessing.

Although we may not always understand, all things happen for a reason.

Jihad - Part 1

In the linguistic sense, the Arabic word "jihad" means struggling or striving and applies to any effort exerted by anyone. In this sense a student struggles and strives to get an education and pass course work; an employee strives to fulfill his/her job and maintain good relations with his/her employer; a politician strives to maintain or increase his popularity with his constituents and so on. The term strive or struggle may be used for/by Muslims as well non-Muslims; for example, Allah, One and Only True God says in the Qur'an:

"We have enjoined on people kindness to parents; but if they strive (jahadaka) to make you ascribe partners with Me that of which you have no knowledge, then obey them not..." (Al-Qur'an 29:8, also see Al-Qur'an 31:15)

In the above two verses of the Qur'an, it is non-Muslim parents who strive (jahada) to convert their Muslim child back to their religion.

In the West, "jihad" is generally translated as "holy war", a usage the media has popularized. According to Islamic teachings, it is unholy to instigate or start war; however, some wars are inevitable and justifiable. If we translate the words "holy war" back into Arabic we find "harbun muqaddasatun", or for "the holy war", "al-harbu al-muqaddasatu". Muslim writers and translators of the Qur'an, the Hadith and other Islamic literature translate the term "jihad" as "holy war", due to the influence of centuries-old Western propaganda. This could be a reflection of the Christian use of the term "Holy War" to refer to the Crusades of a thousand years ago. However, the Arabic words for "war" are "harb" or "qital", which are found in the Qur'an and Hadith.

Mental Home

If you were building a new home for yourself and your family, you would take an intense interest in the blueprint for your home. You would want to make sure that the builders followed your blueprint to the last detail. You would keep watch over the materials they used. Knowing that the future life of your home depends on the quality of the materials used to construct it, you would select only the best cement, insulation, electrical wiring, roofing, and so on.

Does it not make sense to take the same care with your mental home and your mental blueprint for happiness and abundance?
All your experience and everything that enters into your life depend upon the nature of the mental building blocks that you use in the construction of your mental home.

True Silence

"True silence is the rest of the mind; it is to the spirit what sleep is to the body, nourishment and refreshment." -William Penn

The master secret of the ages

What is the master secret of the ages? It is the marvelous, miracle-working power found in your own subconscious mind. This is the last place most people would look for, which is the reason so few ever find it.

Over 90% of you mental life is subconscious. If you fail to make use of this marvelous power, you condemn yourself to live within very narrow limits.

Let Go

Whether you are awake or asleep, the ceaseless, tireless action of your subconscious mind controls all the vial functions of your body without any need for your conscious mind to intervene.

If you were forced to operate your body’s functions with your conscious mind, you would certainly fail. You would probably die a very quick death. The processes are too complicated, too intertwined.

Suppose you walk into the cockpit of a flying supersonic jet. You certainly would not know how to fly the plane, but you would not find it difficult to distract the pilot and cause a problem. In the same way, your conscious mind cannot operate your body, but it can get in the way of proper operation.

Worry, anxiety, fear, and depression interfere with the normal functioning of the heart, lungs, stomach, and intestines. The reason for these “stress-related” diseases is that these patterns of thought interfere with harmonious functioning of your subconscious mind.

When you feel physically and mentally disturbed, the best thing you can do is to let go, relax, and still the wheels of your thought processes. Speak to your subconscious mind. Tell it to take over in peace, harmony, and divine order. Be sure to speak to your subconscious mind with authority and conviction. It will respond by carrying out your command.

Journey to Happiness

From Aristotle in 340 B.C. through to the thinkers, speakers, and writers of today, the key to happiness has hardly changed at all. It is both simple and complex. And it is the same for virtually all men and women, in all countries and situations, and in all walks of life.

The key to happiness is this: Dedicate yourself to the development of your natural talents and abilities by doing what you love to do and continuing to do it better and better.

Since you can't be truly happy until you are clear about your inherent possibilities, it's very important that you take some time on a regular basis to analyze yourself and identify your strengths and weaknesses. One of the best ways to do this is to start by asking yourself two powerful questions.

The first question is my favorite: "What one great thing would I dare to dream if I knew I could not fail?"

Imagine that you are absolutely guaranteed of success in the pursuit of a particular goal, big or small, short-term or long-term. Imagine that you had all the money, all the time, all the education, all the contacts, all the resources, and everything else that you could possibly need to achieve any one big goal in life. In other words, imagine that you had no restrictions.

What would your goal in life be?

The second question to ask yourself is this: "How would I spend my life if I learned today that I only had six months to live?" In other words, if you could only do one or two things before your time on earth was over, what would they be? Where would you go? Who would you spend your time with?

These questions help you assess your values. They go right to the very heart of the person you really are ... and of what is really important to you.

Getting these insights into yourself is the first step toward understanding what you should be doing with your life. The next step is to find a career that will make you happy. And this is where identifying your natural talents and abilities come in.

Everyone has an area of excellence. Everyone has something that he or she can do in an outstanding fashion. It may take weeks, months, and even years for you to develop yourself in your area of excellence - but you will be strongly attracted to that sort of activity from the beginning. You will enjoy reading about it and talking about it and thinking about it. You will find yourself admiring people who are already outstanding at doing it. You will look longingly at that field and wonder what it would be like to be in it and to be successful at it. And that's how you'll know that you have found your heart's desire.

You were put on this earth with a special purpose, programmed with unique talents and abilities that have not yet been fully tapped and utilized. When you focus all of your energies on unlocking your true potential, you can claim your ultimate birthright: happiness.

And remember ... excellence is not a destination; it's a lifelong journey. It is when you continue to grow, becoming better and better at something that is important to you, that you really feel alive and in touch with your world.

It is abnormal to be sick

It is abnormal to be sick. The condition of sickness simply means you are going against the stream of life and thinking negatively. The law of life is the law of growth; all nature testifies to the operation of this law by silently, constantly expressing itself in growth. Where there is growth and expression, there must be life; where there is life there must be harmony; and where there is harmony, there is perfect health.

An Interview with GOD

I dreamed I had an interview with God.

“So you would like to interview me?”

God asked.

“If you have 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 long 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 though 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 of life’s lessons you want your children to learn?”

“To learn they cannot make anyone love them. All they can do is let themselves be loved.”

“To learn that it is not good to compare themselves to others.”

“To learn to forgive by practicing forgiveness.”

“To learn that it only takes a few seconds to open profound wounds in those they love, and it can take many years to heal them.”

“To learn that a rich person is not one who has the most, but is one who needs the least.”

“To learn that there are people who love them dearly, but simply have not yet learned how to express or show their feelings.”

“To learn that two people can look at the same thing and see it differently.”

“To learn that it is not enough that they forgive one another, but they must also forgive themselves.”

"Thank you for your time,"

I said humbly.

"Is there anything else you would like your children to know?"

God smiled and said,

“Just know that I am here........

........ always.”

How to slove a problem

When you have to make what you think will be a difficult decision, or when you fail to see the solution to your problem, begin at once to think constructively about it. If you are feeling fearful and worried, you are not really thinking. True thinking is free from fear.

· Quiet the mind and still the body. Tell the body to relax; it has to obey you. It has no volition, initiative, or self-conscious intelligence. Your body is an emotional disk that records your beliefs and impressions.

· Mobilize your attention; focus your thought on the solution to your problem.

· Try to solve it with your conscious mind.

· Think how happy you would be about the perfect solution. Sense the feeling you would have if the perfect answer were yours now.

· Let your mind play this mood of happiness and contentment in a relaxed way; then drop off to sleep.

· When you awaken; if you do not have the answer. Get busy with something else. While you are preoccupied with something else, it is possible that the answer will pop into your mind.

Happiness

Happiness is not an accident. Happy people are those who deliberately do the things that invariably lead to happiness. Happy people are those who know what they want and then throw their whole hearts into using their unique talents and abilities to make a contribution to the world in the achievement of their goals.

So once you have identified a goal in life, resolve to persist until you succeed at it. The first part of courage is the resolve to launch in faith toward your objectives; the second part of courage is your willingness to endure in the face of the inevitable disappointments and setbacks along the road.

Don't Sign Blank Checks

You sign blank checks when you make such statements as “There is not enough to go around,” “There is a shortage,” “ I don’t have enough to pay all the bills,” and so forth. If you are full of fear about the future, you are also writing a blank check and attracting negative conditions to you. Your subconscious mind accepts your fear and negative statement as your request and proceeds in its own way to bring obstacles, lack, and limitation into your life.

To him that hath the feeling of wealth, more wealth shall be added; to him that hath the feeling of lack, more lack shall be added.

Your subconscious multiplies and magnifies whatever you deposit in it. Every morning as you awaken, deposit thoughts of prosperity, success, wealth, and peace. Dwell upon these concepts. Busy your mind with them as often as possible. These constructive thoughts will find their way as deposits in your subconscious mind, and bring forth abundance and prosperity.

Don’t indulged in fear thoughts perhaps ten minutes later and neutralize the good you have affirmed. When you place a seed in he ground, you do not dig up again in the day. You let it take root and grow.

Destiny

Destiny is not a matter of chance,
it is a matter of choice.

It is not a thing to be waited for,
it is a thing to be achieved."

Wonder of Sleep

You spend about eight hours out of twenty-four hours, or one third of your entire life in sleep. This is an inexorable law of life. Sleep is a divine law, and many answers to our problems come to us when we are sound asleep.

Many people have advocated the theory that you get tired during the day, that you go to sleep to rest the body, and that a reparative process takes place while you sleep. This is a gross misunderstanding. Nothing rests in sleep. Your heart, lungs, and all your vital organs function while you are asleep. If you eat prior to sleep, the food is digested and assimilated. Your skin secretes perspiration. Your nails and hair continue to grow.

In the same way, your subconscious mind never rests or sleeps. It is always active, controlling all your vital forces. The healing process takes place more rapidly while you are asleep, because there is no interference from your conscious mind. Remarkable answers are given to you while you are asleep.

The Intimate of Allah

The intimate of Allah is he who has brought himself to nothingness. Only then can he see the existence of the truth. There is no will left in him to choose. There is no “I” left other than the only existence, which is the truth.

The Kingdom is within you

But the Kingdom is within you
and it is without you.
If you will know yourselves,
then you will be known
and you will know that you
are the sons of the Living Father.
But if you do not know yourselves,
then you are in poverty
and you are poverty.
-The Gospel According to Thomas.

A Beautiful Prayer

I asked God to take away my habit.

God said, No. It is not for me to take away, but for you to give it up.

I asked God to make my handicapped child whole.

God said, No. His spirit is whole, his body is only temporary.

I asked God to grant me patience.

God said, No. Patience is a byproduct of tribulations; it isn't granted, it is learned.

I asked God to give me happiness.

God said, No. I give you blessings; Happiness is up to you.

I asked God to spare me pain.

God said, No. Suffering draws you apart from worldly cares and brings you closer to me.

I asked God to make my spirit grow.

God said, No. You must grow on your own! But I will prune you to make you fruitful.

I asked God for all things that I might enjoy life.

God said, No. I will give you life, so that you may enjoy all things.

I ask God to help me LOVE others, as much as He loves me.

God said...finally you have the idea.

May God Bless You.

"It is in remembrance of God that the heart finds peace"

Affirm the Truth

Suppose a schoolchild adds three and three and puts down seven on the blackboard. The teacher affirms with mathematical certainty that three and three are six; therefore, the child changes the figures accordingly. The teacher’s statement did not make three and three equal six. This was already a mathematical truth that in turn caused the child to rearrange the figures on the blackboard.

It is abnormal to be sick; it is normal to be healthy. Health is the truth of your being. When you affirm health, harmony, and peace for yourself or another, and when you realize these are universal principles of your own being, you rearrange the negative patterns of your subconscious mind based on your faith and understanding of that which you affirm.

AFFIRM THE GOOD, AND THE BAD WILL VANISH

To think correctly, scientifically, we must know the “Truth”. As the ancient saying puts it, “Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free.” To know the truth is to be in harmony with the infinite intelligence and power of your subconscious mind, which is always moving liveward.

Every thought or action that is not harmonious, whether through ignorance or design, will result in discord and limitation of all kinds.

Scientists inform us that you build a new body every eleven months; so from a physical standpoint you are really only eleven months old. If you build defects back into your body by thoughts of fear, anger, jealousy, and ill will, you have no one to blame but yourself.

You are a sum total of your own thoughts. You can keep from entertaining negative thoughts and imagery. The way to get rid of darkness is with light; the way to overcome cold is with heat; the way to overcome the negative thoughts is to substitute with good thought. Affirm the good, and the bad will vanish.

Action & Reaction

There is a universal law of action and reaction. The action is your thought. The reaction is the response from your subconscious mind. The subconscious mind is reactive and reflexive; that is its nature. It rebounds, rewards, and repays. It follows the law of correspondence. It responds by corresponding.

In seeking guidance, you simply think quietly about the right action. This means that you are using the infinite intelligence resident in the subconscious mind to the point where it begins to use you. From there on, your course of action is directed and controlled by the subjective wisdom within you, which is all-wise and omnipotent. Your decision will be right.

There will be only right action because you are under a subjective compulsion to do the right thing.

Islam

In Arabic, Islām means "submission" (understood as submission to God) and is described as a Dīn or Deen, meaning "way of life" and/or "religion." It is derived from the same root as, for example, Salām meaning "peace" (also a common salutation). The word Muslim is also related to the word Islām and means one who "surrenders" or "submits" to God.

The barbaric attacks by terrorist on 7 July 2005 in London

The barbaric attacks by terrorist on 7 July 2005 in London left behind them dozens of dead and hundreds of injured, and went down in history as causing terrible material and psychological damage. These events were referred to as "Islamic terror," in a manner that deeply wounds the entire Islamic world. However, shedding the blood of innocent women and children, by the use of such ruthless methods, cannot be accounted for in any religious terms. Even the term "Islamic terror" creates severe distress in the hearts of sincere believers, and lays blame on a community numbering more than 1 billion. The events have absolutely nothing to do with the true Islam commanded by Allah in the Qur'an. When we look at the Qur'an, the sole source of Islam, and at the practices of all Muslim rulers throughout the history of the world, beginning with our Prophet (may God bless him and grant him peace), we can see the truth of this in all clarity.

Question on who we are

Questions on who we are?........................ why we are here?...................... where do we go from here?....................... how to live this life?.....................etc.

All the knowledge in the material world will not provide this insight, a knowledge which overflows from the divine consciousness:.......... whom We had taught knowledge from Our Divine Presence. (Sura Kahf, 65)

One's heart is a polished mirror

One's heart is a polished mirror. One must wipe it clean of the veil of dust which has gathered upon it because it is destined to reflect the light of divine secrets.

In the race for achievement

In the race for achievement, it is easier to be number one then remaining number one. When we are still not the best, we have a burning desire to beat the best. Once we reach our target, we become a target. Our attitude change, we become complacent and lack adaptability.

Problems

The little problems that lie behind us today were the big problems that were in front of us yesterday.
