CHAPTER 24
01. Among all alternatives,it is easier and better to
solve a problem with money,provided no principles are violated.#money
02. Every failure of govt is not a sign of
neligence.Fury of nature,or other unexpected turn of events
can result in undue pressure on available
administrative machinery and other resources,and that can result
in tragic incidents. So,some strictures ofcourt appear
harsh.#court
03. Some spend sleepless nights worrying for those who
have sound sleep eg. a prodigal son or a runaway daughter.#sleep
04. God sent us here,and if we pray for freedom from
rebirth,that is a sad ommentary on the living conditopns here.Obvious disrespect
for His management of affairs.#life
05. Some truths about you should not become public
during your lifetime.Some never.#truth
06.Either you bend and float in life,or be upright and
get submerged.# acceptance
07. Though anybody can be tranferred anytime in life
(i mean from life) nobody keeps a handing over report ready.#transfer
08. The person who asks "Oh God,have you no eyes" is a
firm belever in God, but one who is thoroughly mystified with his management of
human affairs.#God
09. The more curious you are about the infirmities and
inequities in Ceation,the more restless you become,to contact Him and get a
clarification.#God
10. Life is the longest dream lasting in a man's
life,alternating between deep slumber and a vague imaginary feeling of
awareness.#dream
11. Prayer may be an escapist safety device unless it
proves to be otherwise.#prayer
12. Freedom from suffering must have been inbuilt in
Creation.Actually it is not.What more it eludes man's discovery till his
end.#suffering
13. When problems are overhelming,some set the
solution to the default position.That is called FAITH.
#faith
14. Some people derive consolation that problems they
have are nothing compared to what others have.This is the right attitude for
peaceful living, but is questionable on ethical grounds,because the
consolation arises from satisfacton,that some others
have more problems.#ethics
15. If a pet dog warns you of an imminent danger,you
are exhilarated.If a friend does it ,you are profusely thankful. In other
cases,you are irritated. This is the structure of life.#attitude
16. Problems are questions set by God in the sheme of
life. Some believe that solutions can be found in the scriptures. Some others
believe that those are not solutions but mere sedatives or palliatives.#life
17. There is a lot of difference between serving a
country and serving a party.Serving the party sometimes comes close to serving
the family in very many cases.#politics
18 . It will be a good consolation to take all
unanswered prayers as undeserved requests.#prayer
19. Intense desire and fervent prayer are close to
each other.#prayer
20. Bliss cannot make up for suffering endured #bliss
21. One,baked in privation,cannot rejoice in the
beauty of Creation.#creation
22.Desire is the starting point of achievements.But
sometimes,desire can lead to undesirable results.That jolted Lord Buddha into
condemning desire outright!#desire
23. Thanks to CORONA all are forced to stay
indoors.Loneliness/gloom prevails.Years ago in US,people were held indoors for a
few days due to a major power failure,and there was a baby boom some 9 months
later.There is a sanskrit saying ..DUKKAM SAMBAVATI JANANAM BHUVATHI.#corona
24. A Plant cannot be expected to thank you profusely
for watering it.What more,at the end of its life,it is going to be eaten up by
you.But then it lives happily waving in the wind and showing colours,and
unfailingly
propagating the race. Animals are no different.#life
25. Take deep breath,was the usual healh advisory.But
now,breathe inside a double layer mask.Changed protocol in social life.#life
26. The more you think,the less will you be undertood
by society.But blind reverence likely sometimes.#think
27. Of all that we have in life,we owe the best to
science and technology,and the worst(in many countries) to politicians with
exceptions.#technology
28.Corrupt politicians need not worry,whether or not
they will be returned to power in the next election.They can earn in five
years,enough and more,in fact for generations to come.#corruption
29. Some people lament what bad had happened,while
some others do not lament at all.And there are some who lament what bad was
about to happen,but never even happenned.About a purse that was about to be
stolen,some may be depressed,visualising oh god,if only... #grief
30. One remarkable feature of public finance is that
when expr (for government) increases,the income (for its employees)also
increases.#politics
31.Frequently,courts lash out at govts for their
apparent failure in the matter of attention to the aged,the sickly,the
handicapped,the poor and other downtrodden.Actually,God did not create a perfect
world for Man.Govts after all have their limits.Courts must realise.#courts
32.Where there is a will,there is a way,as the saying
goes.And where there is a will,there is no dispute either.
#Will
33. People must be ashamed to get free what they can
afford to buy. The liberal freebie culture promoted by vote hungry politicians
erodes this virtue.#politics
34. Desire is not the sole cause for misery as claimed
by most religions. On occasions it may intensify misery that is aleady
there.#desire
35. I wonder why learned journalists attempt to have a
very serious intellectual analysis of election results,while they full well know
that the whole process is stinking though dressed up in decent rules of
procedure.Currency flow,freebies,caste,digital onslaught etc#democracy
36. It is sad that political parties entice voters
with freebies.Once in power,politicians can make a kill in major contracts with
business houses,while the public will be licking the freebies.#politics
37. It looks as if in a democracy,elections can be won
with a thumping majority,through digital methodology and scientific approach to
publicity and propaganda.Same pple holds good also
for retention of power.Electoral process needs urgent
rethinking.#democracy
38. Some hold that worry is optional,and not
obligatory.#worry
39. Lockup if you commit a crime. Lockdown for
everybody,and for no fault of theirs.#corona
40. Democracy is a system where dictators are elected
by the people from time to time.#democracy
41. A runner in a race is declared a winner only at
the end of the race,however bright his chances may appear every now and then. In
life too,a man's popularity is fragile while he is still living,and final only
upon his death.#popularity
42. Swamijis are like advocates practising in court
(of the Lord).They acquaint us with the attributes of the Lord and what things
will please them etc.#swamijis
43. Clear conscience is a rare occurrence.#conscience
44. There is a lot of difference between what you can
do,and what you can afford to do. You can kick your boss,but can't afford to do
that.Why go that for? You can admonish your wife.But...
45.With rapid growth in fast lifestyle,parents will
become a fading concept ,and grand parents a relic of the past.#fastlife
46. Light is bright .Sight is clear.Light is poor and
the mind is clear.#mind
47. Laws,including CRIMINAL law,are made in the belief
that certain things are right and certain things are wrong,at all times,and by
any standard. And,that is as it should be. Otherewise the tranquility in life
will be trampled upon.#law
48. Culture flourishes where customs prevail.#culture
