Enjoying the Moment

Beaufly @Beaufly (991) • United States 30 Mar 11

I have recently started meditating on a small scale but I find it helps me to stay centered, calm and peaceful. More importantly, it keeps me focused in the present moment, which is all we have? How do you stay in the present or...

chayapathys Rational thinking is the only difference between human beings and animal.Mind is the centre on which the entire universe rotates.If the mind is in your control the entire outer world cannot do anything with you.Know your mind and that is...

When hopes do not come true...?

chayapathys @chayapathys (2111) • India 9 Mar 11

We all live on hopes and we get terribly disappointed when they do not materialise.In this connection I vividly remember the poem written by famous nature poet Wordsworth who said.."If hopes are dupes fears may be liars".When we...

chayapathys If you had been disappointed in your hopes it is likely that your worst fears will also not materialise. It is philosophical thought to encourge people to take things as they come with equanimity...

chayapathys @chayapathys (2111) • India 15 Mar 11

All of us do somthing or the other ..some times it may be good and sometimes it may be bad.No one does good always and similarly no one does bad always but we are aware that what we do is good or bad.Even a thief knows that he is...

chayapathys As you say people know that when they do evil many know that they are doing evil.Still they do it for reasons best known to them.Time will certainly come when they realise that what they did was wrong and that they ought not to have done it but it may be too...

Do you feel grateful...?

chayapathys @chayapathys (2111) • India 14 Mar 11

When I deeply think over day to day living it occurs to me that we are living every minute of our life on the help and service rendered by many of the past and the present.For instance when you are taking your food on a table in...

chayapathys What you say is correct and we are all grateful to them.Without their help and service we could not be here what we are and how we are.Yes there is difficlty in expressing our gratitude to them since they are invisible and not identifiable to help.May be we...

chayapathys It is only moral lesson that the poet wanted to convey.It may not be true in all cases and at all times.what the poets means is that we should not get bogged down when our hopes do not materialise on the analogy that our worst fears also may not...

What is selfishness..?

chayapathys @chayapathys (2111) • India 8 Mar 11

Man is essentially selfish but when you consider what is selfishness it need not necessarily be confined to one individual.As long as an individual is single whether male or female selfishness is confined to the individual.But...

chayapathys What I stated is easily than done.It is a very obscure thought.One has to think about this again and again.Given the present situation in the world and human nature what it is it is very and very diffcult to expand one's self as I suggested.Anyway we can make...

chayapathys As you rightly say selfishness is subjective and it all depends upon the outlook of the individual.The narrower one becomes in his attitude towards others the more selfish one becomes.See Jusus Christ or Budha who embraced the entire humanity in their self...

chayapathys Most of the children of the age group of 7 or 8 are amenable particularly girls and they can be taught good manners and behaviour.Sometimes it is their luck also.But it is the sacred duty of parents to teach by setting good example for them.If parentrs neglect...

chayapathys Yes what you say is correct.At 13 it is very difficult to mould them.But I am talking of children of 7 or 8 yres when they are amenable and can be controlled to some extent.If only parents pay attention to this aspect and conduct themselves properly children...

chayapathys Mostly it is parents who mould the children up 7 or years.They learn many things from parents only.If the parents conduct themselves properly before their children it is OK.Many parents behave even before their children thinking that they may not understand.It...

Do you think too much money is a problem?

scheng1 @scheng1 (24649) • Singapore 27 Feb 11

Most of us do not have the problem of having too much money. We have more debt than money anyway. We may not even know the rich people with too much money. However, many of the TV serials dealt with the lifestyle and problems of...

No two people think alike...why?

chayapathys @chayapathys (2111) • India 7 Feb 11

You all must have observed that there is always difference in thinking among the people.Children do not think like their parents, husband and wife differ in many aspects, so also friends do not have common views and opinions.Even...

chayapathys The real problem is that we do not get proper words to express our ideas when you are sitting before your computer.Many times I get the proper words after I close the computer and go out.Very few get correct words for their expression.It is because they are in...

Do you think ‘truth’ comes out, when people are drunk, or under effect of drugs?

Professor2010 @Professor2010 (20162) • India 7 Feb 11
