God won't ask...

  • God won't ask what kind of Car you drove; he'll ask how many people you drove that didn't have transportation...
  • God won't ask the square footage of your house; he'll ask how many people you welcomed into your home...
  • God won't ask about the clothes you had in your closet; He'll ask how many you helped to clothe...
  • God won't ask what your job title was. He'll ask if you performed your job to the best of your ability...
  • God won't ask what your highest salary was. He'll ask if you compromised your character to obtain it...
  • God won't ask how many friends you had. He'll ask how many people to whom you were a friend...
  • God won't ask in what in what neighborhood you lived. He'll ask how you treated your neighbors...
  • God won't ask about the color of your skin. He'll ask about the content of your character...
  • God won't ask why it took you so long to seek salvation. He'll lovingly take you to your mansion in heaven and not to the gates of hell...

I do not fear...

One of several versions of the painting Image via WikipediaI do not fear bad or good wishes.

I do not fear money loss.

I do not fear death.

I do not fear to walk on the virtues path.

I do not fear the perils.

May I never compromise in my virtues for fear anything.

My Feelings...

A nomad prayer on a desert in Africa. The phot...Image via WikipediaMy feelings of friendliness for all.

My feelings of sympathy for the poor and miserable.

My feelings of indifference for the ill-virtued.

My feelings of praise, appreciation for people with virtues.

May I always look at good qualities of others and not their follies.

I Revere

Nature's AbstractImage by Christolakis via FlickrI revere 'God' who dissolved the bondage's of Affection for worldly desires, feeling of hatred, indulgence in pleasure of body senses;

I revere 'God' who has in his experience known the universal truth;

I revere 'God' who has shown the path of Moksha, ultimate happiness, to all;

I revere 'Monk' who has no material desires, who practice virtues within oneself and equanimity towards all.
