John Lenon :: Imagine !

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today

Imagine there's no country
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if we can
No need for greed, no hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one.
~JOHN LENNON [9 October 1940 - 8 December 1980, IMAGINE]

Swami Vivekananda On Love !

I once had a friend who grew to be very close to me. Once when we were sitting at the edge of a swimming pool, she filled the palm of her hand with some water and held it before me, and said this: "You see this water carefully contained on my hand? It symbolizes Love." This was how I saw it: As long as you keep your hand caringly open and allow it to remain there, it will always be there. However, if you attempt to close your fingers round it and try to posses it, it will spill through the first crack it finds. This is the greatest mistake that people do when they meet love...they try to posses it, they demand, they expect... and just like the water spilling out of your hand, love will retrieve from you . For love is meant to be free, you cannot change its nature. If there are people you love, allow them to be free beings. Give and don't expect. Advise, but don't order. Ask, but never demand. It might sound simple, but it is a lesson that may take a lifetime to truly ...

A Sufi Sight... !!..

CLOUDS NOW & THEN GIVE SOUL SOME RESPITE FROM THE MOON GAZING BEHOLD... !!.. ~Baku (A Haiku Translated From Japanese) ... Just Read & Enjoy ! [1] A seeker went to ask a sage for guidance on the Sufi way. The sage counseled, " If you have never trodden the path of love, go away and fall in love; then come back and see us. " ~Jami [2] The Sun never says to the Earth - 'You owe me.' " Look what happens with a love like that. It lights up the whole sky. " ~Hafiz

Life An Analogy !

A philosophy professor stood before his class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, wordlessly he picked up a very empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with rocks, rocks about 2 in diameter. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was. So the professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles, of course, rolled into the open areas between the rocks. He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was. The professor picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He then asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with a unanimous "yes". The professor then produced two cans of beer from under the table and proceeded to pour their entire contents into the jar effectively filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed!!!!!!! Now, said the professor, as the laught...
