An Opening

Age 16
Father is a representative of a very big business organization – always busy – going places always
Only son
Mother’s undue extraordinary love and affection
He became a spoilt child and developed all bad habits
The father became dejected on seeing his son’s plight got vexed and admitted him in a college in a nearby town
Good company always benefit every one
The father remembered his friend’s son working there in that town
That young man was living on a natural diet and was employed in a Bank
He was different from all employees and those living around him with a different life style
He was 20
Both 20 & 16 lived together in a room
20 loved that boy because he was his father’s friend’s son
16 wondered how a 20 can live like this after being employed and earning well in a Bank
Wonders happened
16 got bewildered on seeing and being with 20
16 thought – ‘why not I too follow this ?’
16 had a change of heart and all bad habits left him
But 16 could not succeed in his studies
As a new changed person 16 went back home
Those days employment opportunities were not many
16 could not remain idle
16 did not want to go back to his old friends or continue his old bad habits
So 16 went to his father’s friend
16’s father’s friend was having a small cycle shop hiring cycles on an hourly and daily basis
16 worked there without any remuneration to spend time usefully
16 was provided with daily tea twice by his father’s friend
16 was very happy with this job as he is useful to someone
One day a sales representative who usually takes a cycle in that shop asked 16 to name some one who can accompany him in his sales endeavours since the usual boy who used to accompany him did not come that day
16 did not hesitate
16 got the permission to leave the job and joined that representative as his assistant immediately
After 2 days 16 represented the company in his town as the previous representative entrusted the job to
Him and went to look after the sales in another town
16 did his independent assignment so well that within 2 months another bigger company recruited him to be their representative
Soon 16 grew up in his career
Hard Sincere and Honest Work made 16 number one representative in his Organization
His willingness to go for a job with 2 teas a day – his sincere participation in that work made 16 what he is today
A top number one representative of the organization in the whole State with a decent pay and respect
All the Best

Adults ONLY

A Pleasant Morning
There was no traffic in that small road in that tiny village
Life’s sounds were heard from the houses on both side of the road in various dimensions
I was riding a two wheeler
I was in a happy mood
Suddenly a hen coming out of a house hurriedly crossed the road in front of my vehicle as they usually do
I stopped the byke immediately
The hen escaped unhurt and was alive
At that time a beautiful girl came running from that house chasing the hen
She stopped with a jerk on seeing me and my byke
She had an excellent shape – a real beauty
But her clothes were in disarray
After a pause, she smiled at me
She looked at me with love
But I could not face her and went my away
Two days passed away
Again I had to go through the same road
I came to the place where she lives
With out any control involuntarily my eyes looked towards the front door of her house
Yes
With the same love in her eyes she was standing there looking at me
I lowered my eyes and immediately left the place
She found who I am
I too
Yes
She is the local prostitute
After that whenever I went that way
She stopped my byke and spoke nicely inviting me to her house
But I kept silent always and moved away ignoring her invitations
For some time I could not see her and she went out of my sight and mind
I almost forgot her
More than a year went by

My Dog and Me

Early Morning
I came out of my house to take the Newspaper thrown into the compound of my house by the newspaper boy
A mild sound was heard by me
I looked at the direction from where the sound came
Behind the bushes a small puppy was hiding itself
A beautiful white puppy
Hi Puppy - Papa shall we keep this puppy
My young son's happy voice was heard behind me
Good Food
Loving Care
Soon the puppy grew into a big Dog
It barked loud and wagging its tail went round the house happily
One day I was talking to my friends in the garden
While talking suddenly I stepped back
Wow
A sharp barking sound
And I felt a sharp pain in my leg
Yes I have stepped on my dog who was lying behind me by mistake as I have not noticed it earlier
The dog unable to bear the sudden pain has barked and bitten me without any intention involuntarily
I had my bloody wound cleaned and had treatment from my family Doctor
But until my wound was healed the dog feeling very guilty did not eat properly and felt very unhappy
I hugged it with understanding
Unable to bear a pain and that too a sudden unexpected severe pain has made it to bite invouluntarily
And that is the habit of animals
They cannot bear a pain
So they bark and bite automatically without control
That is animal instinct

I too behaved like a dog

From the morning I had a burning sensation intolerable pain due to a swelling due to heat in the anus, a stage prior to piles
A burning pain as if I have been torched with a fire
Continuous burning
Unable to bear
Could not even sit properly
And I had more work to do in the Office that day
I could not take any leave also
I felt very angry and irritated
I could not face any one with out anger or irritation
I could not be my normal self
I could hear the conversation between two of my customers outside the Banking Hall
Why Sir is barking like a dog today so irritated and angry
The words immediately pierced me
I came to my senses

Yes what is the difference between me and my dog
Am I not a Human Being
Can I behave like an animal ?
If I behave like an animal then I am also another animal only
No
I am not an animal
I am a Human Being
I will live and behave like a Human Being
OK
I again became a Human Being

The swelling became bigger
The burning sensation has increased manifold
It became unbearable

Then I realised
I am not this body
God I am only an Atman - a Spirit
Not this physical body
This is not my body
I have no connection with this body
God let this body suffer with the burning sensation
Let this body suffer the pain
I am not going to think of it
I am not going to give it any importance
God until YOU cure it YOURSELF I am not going to consider it as a suffering
I will only take medication but will not worry about this suffering
Because I am a Human Being
And not an animal
I will suffer my pains
And I will not impose my sufferings on others
It is my pain
I have to bear it
And I will not share it with others
I am here in service to only serve others with a smile
That is why YOU have given me this Birth and this Job
I will not betray the belief YOU have on me
I will honor YOUR Confidence in me
I will not share my personal sufferings with others and that too in my office
Because I am a Human Being and not an animal

Only an animal will pass on its sufferings to others
And in suffering will harm others without any control

The body was burning in pain - severe pain
But I smiled and with a happy face continued my work as usual
Every body around me also became happy and the whole atmosphere was full of happiness
And in that happy mood I could tolerate my pain and the burning sensation better and could do my work forgetting the pain
Within two, three day I became normal with the swelling subsiding and the pain stopped
I became alright
God Thank YOU Lord My Master

Most of the people whom you meet daily with an angry face or with an irritated temper suffer with some or other ailment both mental and physical. Poor things. Please forgive them.

• Everything starts from and with 'I' only

'I'

I am
My Self
My Family
My Friends who share my Thoughts
My Relatives
My Community People
My Language Speaking People (Tamil)
My State People (Tamil Nadu)
My Country Men (INdia)
My Fellow Human Beings who live in this World
All other Living Beings & Non Living Things

I Love, Respect and Attach Myself towards all the above to the extent required by Nature
And I treat all the above equally as a true righteous person
And this is the way One should have attachment towards all the above
Nothing more or nothing less than is necessary for a true living person

I consider all the above equally as I would consider myself
This is Truth
Absolute Truth

Negative Marketing

It was long time back when mobile phones were introduced and spread.
I happened to get one Hutch now Vodafone sim card.
In the hurry of daily chores I forgot to top up my balance in the sim card.
When I tried to make an important call a sweet voiced female mildly laughed (she tries to be polite) and in a happy voice declared that I have a low balance and cannot complete that call.
The actual marketing strategy would be that she should politely apologize and gently inform me that I should immediately top up my balance in the sim card before proceeding with the call.
But the laughter which would have gone well if it were to wish me a happy birth day or some happy thing like that and the voice in which she conveyed the position irritated me so much that immediately I removed & threw that Hutch sim card and switched to some other operator the same day.
This is negative marketing.
The tone, the gesture and the way you convey good & difficult things to a customer go a long way in ensuing the continuity of the customer's loyalty to one's product & organization.

Fasting & Natural Diet

I had the privilege of fasting with water, tender coconut water and fruit juices for about three months under the supervision of my most Respectable Guru Mr. M.K. Pandurangam of Kaladipet, Tiruvottiyur, Chennai, Tamilnadu, India when I was 27 years old
Thereafter I lived for about a year on only ripe coconut, fruits & buttermilk. Occasionally I added fresh groundnuts, sugarcane juice and sesame in my diet.
I gained weight as I was underweight earlier
Required sleep only for half an hour a day but remained very active and vibrant
My memory power increased
My face was shining bright and glowing with health
My daily expenses for food became negligible
I remained healthy throughout that period without any headaches, colds etc..
The general health was excellent
But I lost social life
All my elder relatives and friends found it difficult to entertain me in their house and I was a misfit in gatherings and marriage and other functions
So I had to revert back to normal food
But while fasting one has to take rest, complete rest, remain silent as far as possible until one regains full strength during fasting as initially one will become weak and in due course of fasting will improve in health slowly and steadily
All the Best

Hunger Vs Fasting

Remaining Hungry is different from Fasting
Hunger makes one weak and leads to death in case of neglect
Fasting if done on scientific lines makes one strong and healthy
But during Fasting one should remain silent and reduce talking as much as possible to conserve energy
