It is a painless experience.

Preparation to birth is more frightening than the actual eventuality. Because the soul which is residing inside the body hesitates to leave the body as it has developed a deep attachment towards the body. Moreover, the soul looses its ability to recognize itself. Its cognitive ability is limited. It just can't realize the power beyond the body. So there is a friction or a creation of fear about leaving the body.

In fact, soul departure from the body is just like removing an old shirt and wearing a new one. Even the modern science admits that energy can neither be created nor can be destroyed.

How to reduce telephone bills?

Do not have big ambitions because in order to achieve that you would knock all wrong doors to get an "opening" initially. As a result, your " resources" would get dried up very rapidly. Hence, break your ambitions into small pieces so that you could reach the destination without any hiccups. You may ask is this blog about reducing telephone bills or setting goal? My answer would be they both have a correlation in some way.

Without identifying the destination we simply wander or talk too much . once you've identified your goal, your talking would decrease so that you could pursue your dreams harder. Hence,there would be no wastage of energy as all energies will be channelized in achieving the goal.

Reality check!

What does a ship captain do when the sea water enters the ship ? Or there is a danger of ship being capsized as a result of water flooding a portion of the ship?

A prudent ship captain task would be to 'isolate" the flooded portion from the rest of the ship.

What does a doctor do when he treats a patient with an unhealed ulcer for years together?

His immediate concern would be to treat the ulcer if the patient does not respond to the treatment the doctor would go ahead with amputation, lest ulcer spreads to other parts of the body.

Likewise, in "reputed families" when a boy or a girl go astray the "prudent" parents would hive off the rotten ones and they would be designated as a separate entity.

Leave it to HIM

Human mind becomes restless when a prayer goes unanswered. But, we mortals don't understand the secrets of cosmos .Unanswered prayers are really a boon than the answered one.

Thank god ! I didn't ask for it......

We have a tendency to enjoy everything. This life is meant for indulgence , nothing else. The moment we lack something which diminish our level of enjoyment we seek divine intervention to rectify the "setback". This rectification program me is nothing but prayers. Always we seek this pleasure or that mainly, our prayers are revolved around materialistic purposes. Yet, the almighty satisfies our desire through his intervention.

It is always better to pray but, don't attach any materialistic motto . From the human point of view, what we seek may look like THE BEST. Actually, from the divine point of view, that may look like a trinket(in fact, he would be willing to shower you something SUPREME stuff than what you've sought for ) Why do you settle for an ordinary stuff when HE is ready to give a superior stuff.
