Beautiful quotes of Gurudev about God & Mind

God is Not
God is not the object of sight; you can never see God. God is not an object of hearing. God is not an object of smelling or tasting. God cannot be perceived through your senses, nor through the mind.
God Is
God is the Seer himself. Who sees---that is God.
Seeing God
You can live God. You can be God. But you cannot "see" God, perceive God as an Object

Mind is a Field
Mind is not just in one location. Mind is a field, like an electric field. Like an electromagnetic field,it's present all over.

Wrapping Paper
Mind is that cover that is holding the Divine, the Divinity within us. Once that wrapping paper is unwrapped, you find, "Oh, this beautiful gift is here within us!" You know, it's like everyone is given a Christmas package, a beautiful package, and they live with the beautiful without even opening it.

Indian Army - Volunteer

News - The death of col Thomas, in an encounter with Millitants last week.

>>>India's army is not a mercenary army. It is poorly paid, badly armed and has to preserve the integrity of this country in some of the most inhospitable areas of the world. Yet every man in it is a volunteer. He is in it of his own free will. Every man in the army from the highest ranked officer to the new jawan is willing to lay down his life because he loves his country.
But Indians cannot take this patriotism for granted. And they cannot just leave it to the army to motivate their ranks. It is indeed the job of very Indian citizen to ensure that the jawan feels like defending this country. If you want to be protected then you must be worthy of protection.
The jawan will be automatically motivated to do his job if he finds a progressive, law abiding, prosperous country behind him. It is indeed the job of the government to create conditions that keep him motivated. To restore order and decorum in public life, to ensure law and order, to reign in corruption and to bring back prosperity."
The above paragraph I am reprinting from the column written by Admiral J G Nadkarni ( Retired). ( A very old article written in year 2001).
Really we should take the responsibility for so many things which we can change individually or in a group. Time to think & take action.

Responsibility to change the world

People don't resist change; they resist being changed.
Peter Senge-based author, researcher & educator
We must become the change we want to see in the world.
Mahatma Gandhi (1869 - 1948) Indian Nationalist Leader
Two basic rules of life are: 1) Change is inevitable. 2) Everybody resists change.
W. Edward Deming(1900 - 1993) Quality Guru
These are some of the beautiful quotes about change.
Recently we played a very interesting game in the Art of Living Teachers Meet at aashram on how mind behave in change & how mind adopts to change. This game is a course point in YES + ( A very powerful course for the Youths between 18 to 30 age group). Khursheed Batliwala (We call him lovingly as Bawa or Bau A very Sr. International faculty of AOL. He is with Guruji since last more than 15 years), shown interesting behaviour of mind through the game.
Guruji says that everything is changing & nothing is constant in life.
This is the very fundamental law of spirituality.
For changing ourselves - Learning ------ Retension ------Application-----Transformation.
We have to learn ,retain it ,apply it & than only transformation will happen.
As Mahatma Gandhi said
We must become the change we want to see in the world.

Yoga Center replaced the Dance Bar

Its heartening to hear that Sudhakar Shetty a property owner donated a 8500 sqft place at Ville Parle Mumbai to Yoga Center of Baba Ramdeo. Congratulations to Deputy Chief Minister R. R. Patil & Sudhakar Shetty for all there efforts. This place previously used as a Dance bar.All Shetty communitie in Mumbai runs the dance bars previouly, who are basically Kannadi from Karnataka this is a inspiration to all shettys to shift to some positive business.
Surprisingly this news didnt come in any of news papers, but I seen it in Yahoo News yesterday.
No papers today morning covered this news ? why ?
Media covers only Sen sational news & this news is boring ? People read / listen/ see only negative news ? Everything is market driven now in India , "Jo dikhta hai wo bikta hai".Media shows the content where expected TRP is high. Who to blame ? Yes we are responsible for this. Take Action. pl. comment.

I recently Read a talk of Guruji which is given in UN. Few sentences are as below, may not be verbatim, pl excuse.

There are two kinds of people in the life one who take responsibility but do not pray & one who pray but do not take responsibility. We need people who pray & take responsibility.
