A disciple asked his master, Guruji all beings are born and die. All creatures in this world, whether they are humans or animals, have the ability to express the feelings of hunger, pain and joy in all. Everyone knows how to defend himself. Everyone has to struggle with diseases. The end of all birds, animals and humans is certain, but what is the reason that only humans have monks, ascetics, wise men, thieves, robbers, terrorists etc? Why do different types of castes and religions exist in humans? Hearing the disciple's question, Guruji smiled and said, you asked a very good question. Indeed, the main reason behind this is the existence of intellect within the human. Due to intellect, birds and animals can not be like humans. An human can be wise and sage but he wanders instead of meaningful use of his intellect, and ruins his life under the wrong actions and goes to destruction by misusing his intellect. This wisdom should be used only in the right direction. Using intellect, man has divided himself into religions and castes instead of binding himself in the form of unity and has given birth to innumerable disputes. If a man wanted, he could use his intellect to bind the whole human race into the form of unity and make his life meaningful and successful, but he did not do it. If human still uses his intellect in good and righteous deeds, then he can make life successful, which other creatures of the world can not do. Now the disciple agreed with the master.
Baba Harbhajan Singh: A dead Soldier
You must have heard many stories of heroic soldiers, in which the soldiers defended their country by putting their lives at risk. As we know, there is no place of superstition either in the Indian Police or Indian Army. But this story is about the faith of the Indian Army. But despite being genuine, this story is still unbelievable. But would you believe that there is a heroic soldier in the Indian Army who protects his country even after his death and doing his duty with full fidelity. And the name of that heroic soldier is Harbhajan Singh. Harbhajan Singh was born into a Sikh family on August 30th, 1946 in the village of Sadrana in district Gujjarawala Punjab (Pakistan).
Harbhajan Singh joined the Punjab Regiment of Indian Army on February 9, 1966 as a Sepoy. The year of 1968 when the states of Sikkim and North Bengal was under the rage of great natural catastrophic where landslides, floods and heavy rain had taken thousands of lives across the two states. On October 4, 1968 sepoy Harbhajan Singh was escorting a mule caravan from his battalion headquarters in Tekula to Dengchukla, he fell into a fast flowing stream and was drowned. The rapid flow of water taken away his body up to distance of 2 km. For many days the search for Harbhajan Singh continued. But they did not get any information about Harbhajan Singh and then the Indian army declared him a fugitive. It is said that after some days of missing, his colleague had a dream of Harbhajan Singh informing him of his tragic incident and told him about the location of his dead body. After searching for three days, Harbhajan Singh's dead body found in the place where he had informed in the dream. It is said that in the dream, he had expressed his wish to have a samadhi made after him.
According to his wish, his samadhi was also made which is now known as Baba Harbhajan Singh Temple. People has a lot of faith in this place. Every year thousands of people visit here. It is said that even after death, Harbhajan Singh gives the information of the activities of the Chinese army on the border in the dream of his fellow army men. Even Chinese army men believe to have seen a human figure doing patrolling in the night across the border. On the basis of this fact, even after the death, he was kept in service of the Indian Army. Harbhajan Singh left the world so many years ago, but even today his soul is performing his duties in the Indian Army. In Baba's temple, Baba's shoes and other belongings have also been kept. Slippers and a neat sleeping bed also kept in the temple, it is all well maintained. The uniforms are neatly ironed and shoes polished ready for use. Army soldiers of Indian Army take care of Baba's temple.
Do every work with good thinking
There was a hermitage of a monk in a city. In his hermitage, he often preached and people used to come from very far away to listen to that monk's knowledge. The monk was very proud of his knowledge. There was a dancer in the same city. She used to dance in front of people to earn money. The dance of that dancer was very famous. She was very famous among many people. Incidentally, something happened that the monk and dancer died on the same day. After the death, when both of them reached Yamlok, the matter of giving them heaven or hell on the basis of their deeds and the hidden feelings behind them was being discussed. The Monk had full faith that he has done good deeds throughout his life, so he would get only heaven. On the other hand, there was no such idea in the mind of that dancer. She was just waiting for Yama's (God of death) decision. After looking at the accounts of the deeds of both of them, Yama announced that the monk will go in hell and dancer will go in heaven. After listening to this, the monk was shocked. He asked Yama, what kind of justice you have done with me? I always preached to people throughout my life and I got the hell, while this woman always danced to attract people, but she is being given heaven. Why so? Yama responded calmly that the dancer danced to fill her stomach but she always remained in the same feeling that my art is God's gift and I am dedicating it to God's feet. While you always remained proud of your knowledge which continued in your preach and behavior. Then do not forget that you used to think in your mind that I wish I could have an opportunity to see her dance. It seems that you have forgotten this important message of God that the feelings hidden behind the task are actually more important than the task. On hearing this, the monk remained silent. It is essential that we should do any work, but our feeling should always be good, otherwise the work that is good to be seen can also make us a partner of sin instead of good deed.
Importance of efforts
We all have some goals in life. We must also enjoy the efforts to reach the goal. Even if the goal is not achieved, you will enjoy the way you live in the thrill of achieving it. The efforts made to achieve success are more important than success. We have many desires and goals. We do not always get everything that we want. Some of us are happy with what they found, and some are always dissatisfied. Some people do not give up and keep trying constantly. Any one of your desires can be fulfilled only if you try as much as possible to fulfill it. But keep in mind that you should enjoy the efforts to achieve success. There are people who do not give special importance to efforts and when they get success, only then they get happy. But there are also some people who put so much energy in efforts that when the goal is complete, they do not have the energy to celebrate it. Therefore, the roads on the way towards your goal should be fully enjoyed. Playing soccer is a pleasure and winning is quite different. Our problem is that we combine happiness with victory. Musicians who sing classical music are so absorbed in their art that they do not care for the rest of the things. They do not even think about the audience. Their pleasure is that they can present their art with excellence. So enjoy your efforts. Make sure you work smartly. Only hard work does not work. Failure is the rule of life. This is the rule in every competition that one side has to lose. Instead of pursuing success, why not enjoy the game. It is the real discipline that you play independently of the idea of success and failure and play it naturally. In any competition, it will work for you.
Jesus Christ - The Son of True Master (God)
God sent many prophets to take out his people from the slavery of the devil but the people living on the earth did not listen anyone of them and the sins continued to grow in the world. Finally God sent his beloved and only son, the Lord Jesus Christ to protect his people on earth so that he could stop human from falling into the swamp of sins and make them free from the slavery of the devil. God loved the world so that he sent his only son, so that whoever believes in him can not be destroyed but has everlasting life. 700 years before the birth of the Lord Jesus Christ, prophets of that time also predicted the birth of the Lord Jesus Christ, the plan of God about their works, even the sacrifice of the Lord Jesus Christ and the resurrection on the third day. The Lord Jesus Christ is the gift of the Holy Spirit, not by the union of man and woman. Jesus Christ was with God from the beginning, and 2017 years ago, God sent him from a holy spirit to earth with the Holy womb of a mother Mary. What a wonderful thing to see about the birth of Jesus Christ? the Son of God, Jesus Christ, chose to leave the palaces of Heaven and chose a modest place i.e animal stables. The Lord Jesus Christ healed all kinds of sick people by the power of the Holy Spirit received by God. They even resurrected the dead. The Lord Jesus Christ had the power to forgive offenders. Jesus Christ used to heal many sick people by saying that your sins have been forgiven, do not sin further.
Jesus Christ lived for 33 and half years in the world. He continued to serve his parents till the age of 30 and stayed in the service of the people for three and half years for maintaining goodwill, peace and brotherhood. He always said that love your enemies and love your neighbor as well. He said that if someone behaves badly with you, not forgive him 7 times, but 70 times, so that the Father who is in heaven will forgive you. The Lord Jesus Christ made people aware about the kingdom of heaven with his teachings. He said that in order to enter the kingdom of heaven, turn your mind away from evil and leave the bad deeds. The Lord Jesus Christ said that please know the truth and the truth will liberate you. This means that the person who follows his teachings after knowing the Lord Jesus Christ is liberated from the slavery of devil and can enter the kingdom of heaven. The Lord Jesus Christ used to go to the homes of sinners and also eat food, then the religious leaders of that time opposed this, but the Lord Jesus Christ scoffed at his opposition saying that I have come to save the sinners, not to the righteous. When the Lord Jesus Christ was born, that night with a very strange starlight star appeared on the sky. Many Christians believe the star was a miraculous sign to mark the birth of the Christ . Astronomers have made several attempts to link the star to unusual celestial events, such as a conjunction of Jupiter and Venus, a comet, or a supernova. For this reason, Christian people decorate their homes with stars on Christmas night
Value of Life - Gautam Buddha
Once a man went to meet Mahatma Buddha for a certain reason. He was looking very disappointed. He asked Mahatma Buddha why did I get this life? What is the cost of my life in such a big world? Nobody wants me. Even my family do not want me. Because I do not do any work. I do not know about any work. Everyone condemns me. All people consider me a burden on the earth. There is no value of mine in this world and no one wants me. Being disturbed by this, I went out to commit suicide this morning. But on the way, a man told me about you that you solve everybody's problem. That is why I have come to you, Buddha. Please tell me what is my value in this world. The Buddha smiled after listening to him and then gave him a bright stone and said, first go and find out the price of this stone and tell me how precious this stone is. But keep in mind, You do not have to sell this stone. You just have to know the price of this stone.
At first, the man reached to a mango fruit seller to know the cost of that stone. He showed the stone to the mango fruit seller and said what would be the value of this stone. Mango fruit seller saw the stone and realized that it was not an ordinary stone. But still he said in a fake voice that it is not a precious stone. I can give you 10 mango fruits in exchange of this stone. After listening this, that man went away from there. He walked a little further and found a vegetable seller, he showed the stone to the vegetable seller and asked for its value. Seeing the stone, the vegetable seller said that I can give you 1 sack of potatoes in exchange of this stone. By listening this, that man went further away from there. Then he realized that in exchange of this stone the mango fruit seller was giving him 10 mangoes and the vegetable seller was giving him 1 sack of potatoes. Surely this stone is a precious stone. Then he thought that this stone should show to a jeweler. He took the stone and reached a jewellery shop. He showed him the stone and asked for its value. After seeing that stone, the jeweler noticed that the precious stone was a ruby. Jeweler wanted to get this Ruby. So the jeweler said, give this stone to me and take one hundred thousand gold coins from me. The man had so far been guessed about the value of the stone. But when he started to return back to buddha, the jeweler stopped him and said. Hey wait brother, I can give you five million gold coins. But still that man did not stop there.
But that jeweler did not want to let that stone go away from his hand at any cost. The jeweler came in front of that man and said that please give me this stone, I am ready to give you 10 million gold coins in exchange for this. That man did not want to sell this stone. So he started running away to escape from the jeweler. The jeweler called him from behind, this is a very precious stone, I will give you as many coins as you would like. That man was shocked by hearing this. The man reached straight to Buddha and narrated all this to Buddha. Buddha smiled and said, the fruit seller was giving only ten mangoes for this stone and vegetables seller was giving just one sack of potatoes for this stone. But the jeweler who recognized this stone and told that this stone is precious. Every person guessed his own value according to how many qualities they know about this stone. Life is also like this. Every human being is like a diamond. As much as the people recognize him, they give him the importance. But one main difference in human and diamond is that diamond is carved by others but the human himself has to be carved. You are not even less than a diamond. But you have not yet recognized yourself. You are just wasting your life. When you will recognize yourself, then everyone will understand your importance. Then everyone will know your value. And you will also understand what is your value in this world.
D’Souza Chawl - Haunted place of Mumbai
Mumbai is known as the Economic Capital of India. In Mumbai, there is no night, and even in the night there is no darkness and life never stops. Today we are going to tell you about one such place, which is believed to be one of the most haunted places in Mumbai. Whenever thoughts of ghosts arise in the mind, the picture of the old mansions, graveyards or deserted places comes to mind. But this ghost wanders around such a place, where people are always busy throughout the day. And the name of this place is D'Souza Chawl. This place is located in Mahim, Mumbai and It is said that the spirit of a woman wanders around this Chawl and many other supernatural powers also have been experienced here by many people. Residents here have come in possession of these spiritual powers many times.
Local people say that 25 years ago a woman came to live at this place. One day she was taking water from the well and fell into the well due to her foot slipping. After falling into the well, she cried for help, but no one could come to help her, which led to her death. The reason for her death is that there was no wall around that well. Local people say that after this incident the spirit of that woman wanders around this well. It is said that if a person passes near the well in the night, then he sees the spirit of that woman, but her spirit does not harm anyone. The owner of this place has now sealed the well so that her spirit can not harm anyone, although she does not harm anyone. It is believed that many people have seen her ghost at night, but people see this ghost as a good spirit. Even today those people pray for the peace of her soul.
Changes in life are very important
Our life passes constantly through changes. If we stop accepting the changes then our life will stop. Every experience gives us the opportunity to move or change. You should learn everything through your experiences that will develop you. There are many types of fears in our mind that are due to some reasons and some are without reasons. If you have fear in your mind about your future, then it is useless. Actually, not knowing what is going to happen in the future, makes your life interesting. When a child falls, then the fear of falling within him accumulates. And when the child grows up and does not end the fear of falling within himself, then he can not enjoy life. Therefore, we must eliminate all kinds of fear from within ourselves to live peacefully. A person, who only lives at the level of the senses, can only experience senses level pleasure. The other person who keeps his body healthy through proper diet, exercise, is at the second level. At the third level is a person who is free from emotional bondage. He tries to win people with love and compassion rather than anger and jealousy. The level above them is the intellectual level, when there is clarity on things in the mind of a person. At the top comes the spiritual level when a person learns to spend his own inner energy properly. When there is peace and purity inside, then a person is at a spiritual level. Our life is made up of both knowledge and ignorance. We must have understanding of knowledge and ignorance. You have the knowledge, but you have not sharpen yourself with that knowledge or say that you have not utilized that knowledge, then that knowledge is of no use. If people think that I know everything and I do not need to change, then such thinking makes the person blind. This thinking never lets the person move forward.

It is believed that sometimes this light also warns about future threats. These lights sometimes confuse the fishermen so that they fall into the water and get drowned. But sometimes, these lights help them for guiding and prevent them from danger. From time to time, several dead bodies are found by the locals in this area. This phenomenon is still unexplained. The scientists from all over the world come to see these marshes to study the strange lights, but they have not been able to draw any reasonable explanation.
These lights known by different names have been associated with the paranormal or spirits of people. Some trying to help others while others leading them to their death. It is said that the person who follows this mysterious light is found dead. Once you follow this light, it becomes less in size and often disappear, people get nervous and lose their way. It is said that this light is responsible for the death of many fishermen. But some scientists say that when a gas emanating from the swamps gets mixed with oxygen then it starts to shine, which makes a small circle of light. But due to the death of many people from time to time, this place remains mysterious.
God gives us a lot
Once the king of a country was roaming in villages to ask about the problems of his people. His shirt button broke, while roaming in the villages. He asked his minister to find out the tailor in the village. The minister came to know that there was only one tailor in that village. The tailor was brought in front of the king. The king asked if you could put a button on my shirt. The tailor said, this is not a difficult task. He took the button from the minister and put that button on King's shirt with the thread of the same color. The king had that broken button, so the tailor had to use only his thread. The king asked the tailor how much money should be given. The tailor thought that the king already had that broken button, i have just used the thread. The tailor said, dear king, this was a very small task. So there is no need for money for this. The King again asked the tailor, tell me how much money you will take. Tailor thought that i should take two rupees. But then he realized that the king could conclude wrong from this by thinking that if the tailor is taking two rupees from the king, then how much money he would take from the rest of the people. At that time, the price of two rupees was very high. The tailor said to the king, Dear king, whatever you think is right, give it to me. He was a king, he had to give according to his position. His position does not get worse in order to give it, so he told his minister, give this tailor two villages. This is my order. Where the tailor was demanding only two rupees and where the king gave him two villages. Something similar happens with us. When we leave everything on the Lord, then lord gives us everything according to his will. We do not even know, how should prayer to god for something, he wants to give us a lot.
By opening the cage, you will get real freedom
If a bird is thrown into a cage, it will flutter the wings and repeatedly try to get out of that cage. The bird knows that what is the real meaning of flying and what kind of happiness exist in flying by spreading the wings. That bird has felt the peace of the sky, but the bird, which was born in the cage, does he even know about flying? If the bird is removed from a small cage and put in a large cage then will that bird get freedom? We have built a cage of our thoughts and ideas but the bird of the heart is closed in this cage. By removing from a cage of thoughts and putting them into another cage of thoughts, that bird will not get freedom. Whether a cage is big or small, of educated people or illiterate, what difference does it have, in reality it is also a cage. The heart of every human being wants to attain the ultimate peace of freedom. It is the heart that inspires man to get freedom, enjoy, praise and appreciate. When the heart is filled with love, all the secrets of nature are open to him. Just do one thing in your life that the bird of your heart has been gripped in the cage of darkness, ignorance and ego, let it free. When this cage will break one by one, then we will begin to understand. Only then this bird will fly. When it will fly, then it will get what is called peace and ultimate happiness. Nobody knows how long we have kept this heart bird in the cage of thoughts. When this cage will open, the heart will get freedom. On that day, love, joy and peace will shine. You are human beings of God. Have you ever seen the peacock dancing? That is also God's gift. If peacock dances in fun, then how beautiful he looks. When you will dance by spreading your wings of peace for that God, then you will also look so beautiful. Nowadays, people make different kinds of makeup to look beautiful but you seem to be real beautiful when there is real peace on your face.
Pain of a tree
A boy named Namdev was playing outside the house. His mother called him and said, Son, take out the bark of a tree, I need to make an essential medicine. The boy went to the forest as soon as the mother's order was received. In the forest, he scratched the tree bark with a knife and returned with it, but the liquid was dripping from it. On the way back from the forest, he found a Saint. The saint asked, what is this Namdev in your hand? Namdev replied, taking the tree bark to make medicine. Saint said, do you not know that damaging the green tree is unrighteous? Trees also have life. They are considered to be gods and worshiped. When the Vaidya breaks the leaves of a tree, firstly they join hands and pray that we are hurting you for the purpose of saving others lives. This is the law of our culture. The saint's words have a profound effect on Namdev. Namdev reached home with deep thinking. He gave the tree bark to the mother and sat in the corner of the room and peeling his foot skin with a knife. When her mother saw blood on his son's foot, then she was suddenly shocked and said, Are you gone mad, what are you doing ? Namdev replied, Saint had said that trees also have life. I am trying to figure out by peeling my foot skin and understand how much pain the tree will have when I was removing the bark of tree. Mother embraced her son. She understood that he has been greatly affected by saint's words. Later this child became famous with the name Namdev, and he saw Lord in each and everyone.
Do not lose today for tomorrow
Time is divided into past, present and future. But the greatest truth of time is present. Sometimes the past was also present and there will also be a future. Therefore present is the most important in every situation. If you do not know how to be happy at present, then you can never be happy. If you get this sound from your mind that you will be happy in the future then it also means that you are not happy at present. You have to learn to be happy at present. You should give the highest importance to your happiness in every situation. You should find happiness in today and not to waste your energy in thinking that what you will be in future. It also does not mean that you should work without any plan. You should have a plan but there is a difference between plan and dream. You should live the happiness that you get today. Be happy and enjoy your future goals with happiness. If you start living in today then your work will not be stressful, you will find it interesting and life will also be a joyous journey. Then you will find happiness in today and will not wait for happiness in the future. When you live with desires and wishes, you can not see the happiness of today, but if you see happiness in small things, then it makes life wonderful. Many people keep accumulating wealth with this aspiration that they will consume the full amount of money in one age but then the body does not accompany you and the doctor refuses to eat sweet. Then you can not eat sweet fruits. Then the body is dependent on medicines and you can not work much harder. Therefore, It is important that you should maintain a balance in life when you are healthy. Enjoy all the things. Take time for your important relationships. If you think that when you will have enough time you will meet important people, remember that such a time will never come. Those who lose today in waiting for such a time, lose every happiness in life.
Make better use of time
Time does not wait for anyone. While flowing through the stream of time, we should make a good use of it. Make it meaningful to yourself. Making life worthwhile means that we get satisfaction. We should strive for meaningfulness of life. Some people, if they take time to harass others, cheat and deceive them, then they can get immediate relief from them but in the long run, there is a burden on the mind. Satisfaction can never come in their lives. Therefore, your time should be spent in those tasks that give you true satisfaction. Money can not bring satisfaction in your life. When you go behind the money, you always want more and more. But when you bring compassion in your life, you get satisfaction and happiness. Then reality of life is realized. Our goal should be to get this satisfaction. Pain and happiness all organisms feel equally. Even trees express their senses, but humans have intelligence that separates them from others. But intelligence has become a cause for many problems. Intellect has become the reason for man's stress today. The well-educated people live in tension because they live life with expectations and fear. Because of these they have worries in their mind. The thinking of animals is instantaneous but we think of past and future too. We do not think of our own lives but also think about the generations. That is why we make a place for worry in life. Scientists say that if regular fear, anger, and hatred remain in your mind then it causes great harm to the body. The quiet brain is most important. Honest and true people win faith and friendship with them runs long. Whether you believe or not, such people find satisfaction. As long as your mind is full of different kinds of thinking, you can not find peace. When the brain is not full of many things then the body and mind are better.
Do not waste precious time
A fisherman picked up his net and walked towards the river. He saw that the day has not come out completely, then he started walking along the bank of the river. Suddenly something collided with his feet. When he picked it up, he found that it is a small pouch full of small stones. The sun was still a bit late, so the fisherman kept the net on one side and trying to spend his time by throwing that small stones into the river one by one. He was going to throw the last stone but then the sun came out. In light, he saw that there was not a stone in his hands but a precious diamond. The fisherman was very sad for his mistake. But now nothing could have happened. This is often the same with us. Like the fisherman, we destroy precious things like diamonds or do not use that things in the right way due to our ignorance. Time is also one of that precious things and also the most important. Initially, we do not understand its value and when its value is understood, then it is too late. Do not waste your precious time like fisherman wasted the diamonds, it is not fair in any way. Still the diamonds that are left in time, do not destroy them like a fisherman by creating an excuse of darkness. Be aware and at least keep them in hand. Darkness is a symbol of ignorance and light is a symbol of knowledge, consciousness and awareness. As long as ignorance continues, we will not be able to properly evaluate precious things like our virtues and save them from being destroyed. When the light of knowledge, consciousness and awareness comes into life then only we try to save our precious qualities from being destroyed. Therefore, we should always strive to acquire knowledge, develop consciousness and bring awareness. Artificial darkness cannot obstructed our path when we are truly awakened.
Set your goal for a successful life
Several camels were going along with their owner at the desert plain. Seeing the darkness, the owner ordered to stay in a tavern. 99 camels were tied with ropes, but there was shortage of one rope for a camel. They tried lot much for finding a new rope, but they did not get it. Then the owner of the tavern advised that you have to give a false feeling to the camel that he too has been tied to the rope. The camels owner was shocked to hear this, but there was no other way, so he did the same. Now the camel thought that he was tied. He sat down and slept. When 99 ropes of camels opened in the morning, all the camels got up and walked, but one camel kept sitting. The camels owner was surprised, he did not even tied the camel with rope, but still camel was not getting up. The owner of the tavern explained that the camel is not tied to the rope for you, but according to the camel he is tied to the rope so far. Now make the camel realize that you have opened the rope. After this the camel got up and walked. Friends, it also happen with humans, we are bound with similar ropes that actually do not exist. Humans are bound by their own wrong attitude, from the wrong thinking, by holding the opposite beliefs. Such people consider the truth as a lie in their entire life and believe the lie to be true. They live double life. There is a long distance in its ideal and conduct, therefore it is necessary that whenever the mind of man awakens, first determine the goal. Walking without purpose, it will only give you fatigue, disappointment and frustration, not the target. The only way to make life successful is to set your goal and work in that direction.
Keep your mind free from anxiety
whenever a boat loads more stuff than its capacity, then it starts to wobble. In such a situation, it is necessary to remove some of the luggage from the loaded goods in order to save the boat from drowning. There is no possibility of boat sinking when the luggage is low. If all the stuff of the same kind. then any item can be dumped out, but if there are many types of goods, then the question arises, which goods to be thrown out of the boat. Naturally, the luggage will be thrown out first, which is either worthless or cheapest. Our life boat is also like the same situation. When it starts to waver, it is necessary to throw away the unwanted stuff that is loaded so that it can easily reach its destination. Now the question arises, how can it be known that what is worthless in our life boat, which is necessary to throw off and what is precious, which is necessary to be saved in any case. Concerns in life are natural but we often get ridiculous worries that have nothing to do with our lives. If we are not free from these concerns, then the burden of such futile worries creates a disruption in the smooth flow of our life boat. Apart from this, any negative thoughts or disorders that arise in our lives, they all stop our life boat from moving ahead. It is important for us to analyze our properties and to try to get rid of the deficiencies as soon as possible. Also, be aware that our demerits should go away but virtue should not end in any way. Religion, wealth, work (work, desire and sex) and salvation or liberation are considered as four human qualities. These four are important places in our lives. To neglect any of these, there is a direct meaning of imbalance in life. Due to these imbalances, the boat of our life starts shaking. To save the life boat from the sinking and to carry it in the right way, there is no other way other than lack of flaws and balance in action.
Everything happens according to his will
In the third chapter of the Gita, it has been said that all of our deeds are actually done by nature's qualities, but those who are ignorant and whose hearts are fascinated by the ego, they understand that they have done these deeds. I do this, by keeping this ego they bind themselves in many kinds of bonds. Those who are caught in such ego, their life becomes like hell. After all what is this ego, which is harmful, even though we are not ready to leave it. A wise man has said that the fulfillment of ego is not achieved by getting something, but by getting more than the other person. In Indeed, ego means to prove itself superior to others. Because of this, people tend to greed so that they can appear richer than others, try to suppress others so that they can prove their rulership and want to fool others so that they can prove to be wise. Remember, the work of ego is to show itself higher than others. The ego is the name of the instinct of superiority of comparison with others. History is a witness of how great civilizations, powerful dynasties and empires fell into the hands of egoistic, arrogant, and arrogant rulers and wiped out their original existence. There are many such incidents in Mahabharata when Lord Sri Krishna destroyed the pride of Arjuna, and called that pride as the biggest obstacle in the process of God's attainment. Similarly, in the Ramayana, there is an incident of pride of Narada and they feel that how they are becoming so dissatisfied with God due to their false pride. We should not forget this fact that if any one is the most important in the world then it is the Almighty God, who does not have the ego of his power. It is better that we get rid of ego forever, otherwise it is a dangerous disease which can ruin our entire life.
The first step of happiness is satisfaction
Helping the poor and hoping for happiness in grief is a natural human behavior. If we really want to know the secret of life then we have to first understand ourselves. If you are interested in seeing yourself, then your desire will end to see others. The great boxer Mohammed Ali also said that the best way to make dreams true is to get awake. There are many people in this world who worry more about the future than the present. Worrying for the future is not a bad thing, but when this anxiety comes to mind and heart, then it takes the form of sickness. Today i have, whether it will last tomorrow or not, many people have lost their happiness in this worry. This is a kind of mental illness. It does not have any medical treatment, but it can be treated only by a knowledgeable person or a psychologist. Benjamin Disraeli says that circumstances are not in the control of human beings, but behavior is in the hands of a man. The first step of happy life is satisfaction. In today's world it is very difficult to find a satisfied person. Some people are worried about the family and some are concerned about the business. Some people are unhappy because they do not get much, and some people are sad to see others. No one is satisfied with what they have, all are worried about seeking more. No one can be happy with such thinking. Development is also unbalanced due to lack of satisfaction. If there is no development of humanity or its development speed is very slow, then a major imbalance will arise. It is already happening like this. The inflow of wealth has increased but the source of consciousness is drying up. Day by day, Man is becoming cruel and merciless. The great philosopher Acharya Mahapragya has said that if you want to become a man in a real sense, then you should have self-realization. Whether you get pleasure in this world or not, but if you attain enlightenment then you will never consider yourself poor and you will be satisfied in every field of life.
Don't waste your life, Trust in yourself
Nowadays when you open the newspaper, the news of someone's suicide is sure to be read. Most of these people are young, they are well-educated. The main reason for their suicide is the stress of modern life. Nowadays we have no habit of waiting for success. Now there is no tolerance inside us. Nowadays our only strategy is that work should be done instantaneously and should also get success immediately. Due to this habit everyone gets frustrated easily, and in this way the number of people who are committing suicide is increasing. We all love our life very much. But even then, sometimes due to the failure of any work, anger gets in our mind and frustration comes due to which our mind starts to commit suicide. But there are many people who overcome this idea of suicide but some people are also those who can not control this idea and take the wrong steps, so that they lose their life. The mentally sick people can not bear the defeat, due to which they can not handle the situation and take the wrong steps. Most often it happens that family members, colleagues, friends of such a person are not aware of his mental condition.Suicide is an attack against itself. There is a lot of competition in today's world. This makes everyone feel insecure. The effect of this is that even a small personal humiliation greatly influences our lives. Our self confidence is lost somewhere. Others do not suffer, so we do not reveal our anger. The result of this anger goes out in suicide. To avoid all this, we should try to keep our physical and mental health balanced. Increase your self confidence. Enjoy the small things of life with full heart. Strengthen the thread of love of your family. Keep your body healthy and keep your mind calm.
Quit ego and start learning
Learning process starts with taking birth on earth. As we grow up, the learning process also extends. Soon, we learn to get up, sit, speak and walk. With this process of growing up, sometimes our ego becomes bigger than us and then we start making mistakes and quit learning. This ego blocks our development path. Talking about this thing, I am remembering an incident which would be good to discuss here. Once upon a time, A man who was a great thinker, went to a saint. Various topics started to be discussed between both of them. That man said to the saint, I have acquired enough knowledge through deep study and experience but I want to know more.
Can you help me a little? The saint knew that he has a great knowledge of his subjects, which he has some pride, so doing nothing will not work, so he took a blank paper after thinking for a while and gave it to that man and said. It is a good thing to say that you want to learn something, but how can I explain that what you have learned till now and what have not you learned? So saint said, whatever you know and whatever you do not know, write about both of them on this paper. It is useless to discuss, what you already know and it will be right to talk about what you do not know.
The thing was simple but something difficult for that man. His pride of being knowledgeable has become shattered. That man knew a lot about the subject of soul and divine, but he did not know anything about the other things. He listened to the saint's words and got into thinking. Even after thinking a lot of time, when he did not understand anything, he gave that blank paper to saint and said, sir, I do not know anything. Today you opened my eyes. The saint was very impressed with the words of that man and said, well, now you have learned the first thing to know that you do not know anything. This is the first step of knowledge. Now you are able to learn something because empty vessel can be filled, but it is not possible to fill even one drop of knowledge in the heart filled with ego.
Do not keep the burden of thoughts on your consciousness
When there is a lot of burden of thoughts on our consciousness, there is unrest in mind, then understand that consciousness has been imprisoned, it has been locked. Happiness can only get by going beyond this imprisonment. There are two ways of live life - one is contemplation and second is realization. Most people get entangled in different types of thoughts, they live less because they think of life as a way of thinking. They understand intellectualism as a self-realization. They read religious texts and philosophy and understand that all knowledge will be available to them. The information of all theories also gives them the illusion that they have become theologians. Due to this misconception, they start sharing knowledge with others. They do not even realize that all this knowledge is borrowed, stale. This type of knowledge cannot enlighten the life of any person, rather it remains scared that somewhere your mind should not be affected by any kind of ego.
In this case, whatever the person does, it is within the purview of the mind. It does not break the prison walls of the mind, but gets even stronger. Now the question is how to open this lock. The experienced person's conclusion is that meditation is the key from which this lock opens and samadhi is the solution. The effort to think or go beyond the limit of your mind makes us free from all things. There is one method of Jain seekers in Japan is to calm down breathing, slow down its pace, and slow down. It becomes so slow that it reaches 4 to 5 breaths in 1 minute. Here the breathing becomes calm and the thoughts begin to calm down. When you are in fear, anger, or some kind of excitement or lust, notice that your breath starts running at a faster pace and you lose your temper. The inconvenience of breath makes the world of thoughts within you. Therefore, Jain seekers do not fight with or control their thoughts. Both Buddhism and Jainism followed the same technique to calm down their mind. This technique has proved to be very effective for meditation.
Different levels of understanding of people
Once Buddha was preaching somewhere. At the end of his discourse, he said, "Wake up time is going out of hand". After the end of the discourse, he told his beloved disciple "Anand" that let's move around a little bit. Anand went along with Buddha. They just reached Vihar's main door and stood on one side. The people who came to hear the discourse were coming out one by one. So there was a lot of crowd. Suddenly, a woman came out to meet Gautam Buddha. She said I am a dancer. Today, there was a dance function in someone house which was already fixed but I forgot about it. You said that "Wake up time is going out of hand", so I immediately remembered that point.
After that one Dacoit came to Buddha. He said that I will not hide anything from you. I had forgotten that today I had to go to a place for robbery. And after hearing your sermon today I remembered this, thank you very much. After he went, slowly an old man came to Buddha. The old man said that I ran away behind the world's things in my whole life and now a day has come near to face death and now I feel that whole life has become useless. And after listening to your discourse today my eyes are open. From today, I want to leave all my worldly desires and try for Nirvana.
When all the people went from there, Buddha said to his disciple Anand, "Look, I had given only one and the same discourse." But everyone took a different meaning from that. It shows that everyone can gain knowledge according to their understanding. The higher is your understanding level, the more you can attain knowledge. Our mind should also be worth it to get Nirvana. To attain Nirvana, it is very important for the mind to be pure.
As you think, So shall you become (Motivational story)
Once an addict of alcohol went to a saint and said in a gentle voice, Guru Ji, I am very sad with the addiction of this alcohol. Because of this, my home is being ruined. My children are starving, but I can not live without alcohol. The peace of my home has been gone. Please tell me some simple tips so that I can get the peace of my home again. Saint said that when this addiction damages you so much, why do not you leave it? He said, dear Saint, I want to give up liquor, but this is in my blood so much that I am not taking the name of quitting the alcohol. He said, Dear Saint, I want to quit the alcohol but I do not know why despite trying so much, I am not able to quit alcohol. It looks like alcohol has kept me alive. Saint laughed and said that tomorrow you will come again and I will tell you how to leave alcohol? On the second day, that person went to the Saint again. By seeing him, the Saint stood up and grabbed a pillar tightly. When that person looked at Saint in this condition, then he was standing for some time but when Saint did not leave the pillar even after a while, he did not remain calm and asked why he has kept this pillar in vain? The Saint said, I have not caught this pillar, this pillar is holding my body. I want it to leave me, but this is not going to leave me. The person wondered and he said. Dear Saint, I drink alcohol but I am not a fool. You have deliberately held this pillar tightly. Saint said, Dear person, I want to explain you the same thing that As i hold the pillar by myself but the pillar did not hold me such like that this alcohol has not caught you, but the fact is that you have caught the alcohol. You were saying that alcohol is not leaving me, whereas the truth is that you should firmly believe in your mind that I have to give up this addiction now, so at the same time you will lose your habit of drinking alcohol. Every action of the body is controlled by the mind and if your desire power is strong you can successfully do any work. That person was so impressed by the saint's words that he decided to never drink alcohol in the future. Happiness returned to his home and he started living peacefully.
Moral of the Story
This story tells us that if you have determination to do something in your life then you can face every problem and achieve everything. Because every action of the body is controlled by the mind and if you conquer your mind you can conquer the world. And it is said that As you think, So shall you become.

North Sentinel Island is one of the Andaman Islands, Which includes South Sentinel Island, in the Bay of Bengal. The people living here do not like the outside people at all. If any outsider comes here by mistake, these people kill him very brutally. The situation here is so bad that people get scared by hearing the name of this place. That's why, the Indian government has banned this island for all. There are many places in the world which are very beautiful, but many of them are also there, after knowing their reality, you will not even think of going there. People of very mysterious tribe live on this island. These people have completely rejected the modern civilization and have no contact with the outside world. It is said that whenever these people meet with someone outsider, they always show violent behavior with them. If you see the view of this island from the sky, it is also a calm and beautiful like any normal island. But even then there is something wrong here that tourists do not have the courage to go here. It may be that they all know if they come here once, they will not be able to go back. Apart from the tourists, this island is equally dangerous for the Fishermen. In 2006, the fishermen who had arrived here accidentally have lost their lives. The tribe people living here had killed many fishermen. These tribes are living here for almost 60000 years.

The Andaman islands were destroyed due to the terrible Tsunami in 2004. The North Sentinel Island is also a part of the Andaman Islands category. But what was the effect of tsunami on these tribe people? Nobody knew that. The Government of India was worried that what would have happened to these residents away from modernity after tsunami. Therefore, after three days of the tsunami, the Army helicopter flew over the island for get information about those people. But after seeing the helicopter, tribe people attacked on helicopter with stones and arrows. The people of this tribe have never allowed any outsider to enter on this island. That's why, their clear picture is not available yet. Every image and video of these people is taken from very far away due to security reasons. Therefore, we did not get any clear picture and video till now. These people do not depend on agriculture. They use animals flesh for their diet source. These people are totally dependent on hunting. The Indian government tried to contact those tribe people several times from 1968 to 1991. But every time these people showed a violent behavior. Then after 1991, Indian Government stopped contacting them. Since then, the Indian government has declared this island an exclusion zone. Now nobody is allowed to go there. Nobody knows the population of this island. Estimated population of this island is 100 to 200.
Third Eye: The Reality Beyond The Limit

Do not waste any opportunity (Small Story)
Once there was a saint lived in a village. He had so much faith in God. There was a tree in the village under which he practiced on chanting god's name. All the people of that village were very happy with that saint because of his great belief on god. Everyone had a great respect for him. There was a river near the village which was always filled with water. Whenever there was rain in the village, the river water used to come above the danger mark.
One day, there was a huge rain in the village. As a result, a massive flood hit the entire village. The whole village was filled with water. Everyone was trying to escape. Some people were leaving the village while other were went on the roofs of their houses. The water was entering in the village very fast. But that saint was still sitting under the tree and chanting the name of lord. By seeing this, some people came to that saint and asked him to leave this place for his safety. But saint told them to save their own lives. Saint said that my lord will save me. After listening this, they all went away from there. But that saint did not move from there.

Tunguska Event (The Most powerful explosion)
On June 30, 1908, there was an explosion on the earth which was 1000 times more powerful than nuclear bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. This explosion occured in an area near Stony Tunguska River in Yeniseysk Governorate, Russia. This type of explosion had never taken place before and after this event. The light coming out of it was more brighter than the light from the sun. The sound of this explosion was so high that broke windows and doors hundreds of kilometres away. The impact of this explosion was so energetic that knocked people off their feet. After a few seconds, when the sound of the explosion ceased, then the most horrific picture appeared. All the trees in the 2000 square kilometer were burnt. There were around 80 million trees over there. Whether it was an explosion or something else, when the investigation began, then the most surprising things came out. This explosion was 1000 times more powerful than Hiroshima and Nagasaki explosions. But there was no crater on the ground and found no sign of any explosion. It is believed that it happened by an incoming asteroid (or comet), which never actually struck Earth but instead exploded in the atmosphere, causing what is known as an air burst. The Tunguska event has the biggest impact on Earth in history. In the study, it is said that the meteoroid's size was around 60 to 190 metres, based on whether the body was a comet or asteroid. The shock wave from the blast would have measured 5.0 on the Richter magnitude scale. The earthquake of this magnitude is capable of large amount of destruction but due to unpopulated area no damage was done.
Aokigahara Forest (Suicide Forest of Japan)
Intoduction
A very mysterious forest spread over 35 square kilometers, where a lot of people have done suicide. This forest is located on the North West side of Mount Fuji in Japan. The name of this deadly forest is Aokigahara. It is also called as Suicide Forest or Sea of Trees. It is a very dense forest. That's why we cannot hear the outside voice here. The western edge of Aokigahara, where there are many caves filled with snow, is a popular destination for tourists and school trips. According to Japanese mythology. the ghosts of the dead people live in this forest which is also called as yurei. And the most surprising thing is that many people have suicided so far in this forest. Aokigahara is internationally known as one of the world's most popular destinations for suicides. A signboard has also placed outside this forest, so that the people who are committing suicide, realize that they are taking the wrong step and how sad their families would be after their death.Suicides at Aokigahara Forest
In 2002, 78 dead bodies were found here, and in 2003, there were around 105 dead bodies in the forest. By listening to this, you can imagine how many people commit suicide every year here. At least 200 people tried to commit suicide here in 2010, out of which 54 completed the act. It has been found in the research that the most common way of suicides is drug overdose and hanging. In the last few years, how many people have committed suicide, no one knows because local officials no longer tell anyone about this so that they can overcome the fear of this forest among people. It is difficult to say whether the ghosts are actually exist in this forest or not, but this news came out when Seicho Matsumoto in 1961 wrote a novel called “Tower of Waves", in which a loving couple commits suicide in this particular forest. It is said that ghosts of that couple live in this forest. This forest is so dense that even at day time there is not much light available here. If this forest is so scary and deserted at day time, then how will it look like at night. Some people even said that they have seen the ghosts with their own eyes in this forest which they have given a name "yurei".
Snake Island (Brazil)
Snake Island
An island about 33 km away from the state of Sao Paulo, Brazil , named as Snake Island. This island is approximately 430,000 square metres in area. This island is full of the most venomous snakes. It is strictly forbidden for people to visit this island. There are around 4,000 snakes at this island. Golden Lancehead is one of the world's most venomous snake is also found on this island. This snake is listed as Critically Endangered by the IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature). This snake has a light yellowish brown colour on its underside. Golden Lancehead snakes are responsible for the most human deaths in north and south America. It is said that this snake can kill around 50 people with one gram of its poison. This island is mainly known for Golden Lancehead snakes. This island is very dangerous for humans, due to thousands of venomous snakes. That's why people are not allowed to go there.
History of Snake Island
In 1909, Brazil government constructed a lighthouse at snake island, which is used to kept ships away from there. The responsibility of the maintenance of this lighthouse was given to a family. But unfortunately, that family could not escape from the snakes. After the death of all the members of that family, the Brazilian government completely made the lighthouse automated. After that incident, Brazilian Navy completely banned this island for public and the only people who are allowed in the island are research teams who receive waivers to collect data.
Valley of death for birds (Jatinga, Assam)
India is a very beautiful country, but the more beautiful it is, the more mysterious it is also. There have been so many mysterious incidents in India that no one is able to understand. Jatinga is one of them. Jatinga is located in Dima Hasao district, Assam State in India. Jatinga is a very beautiful village of Assam but it is especially known for a very mysterious incident not for its beauty. It is also called Valley of death for birds. It is most famous for the phenomenon of birds committing suicide. Although the birds do not commit suicide and are actually killed, the myth of suicides has spread far and wide among the common people. This mysterious incident occurs in this place from September to November every year. After sunset, all the birds suddenly lose their balance between seven to ten o'clock, and they all collide into the houses and trees over there.
But this "suicide" word is actually used by the people over there. But if we use our common sence it is not a suicide. If we talk about this in a scientific way, then the birds have no suicidal brain. There are lot of creatures who have suicidal tendencies. But the sparrows don't have these suicidal tendencies. That's why this mysterious incident has surprised the tourists and scientists. Most of the local people believes that there is some kind of negative energy which pulls the birds down and kills them. Bird migration occurs in many places of the world but there is no such incident is seen anywhere. Then why does this always happen in Jatinga? Why do thousands of birds die every year at this place? Many scientists have been trying to solve this mystery. Some scientists believe that due to sunlight in the evening the birds lose their balance and some believe that due to fog, they lose their direction. But here the question arises that in many places of the world there is bird migration in such kind of circumstances but these incidents do not occur anywhere else. Then why it is only happening in Jatinga? That is why Jatinga is more popular for this Mysterious incident than its beauty.

Our desires have no end (Small Story)
Once there was a King. He was very compassionate. He was always ready to help others. That is why, his relations with the neighboring states were very good. Then one day, it was King's birthday. On that day, the king woke up and decided to hang out with his soldiers. The king was very happy on his birthday and wanted to help some needy people. With this idea, the king walked out with his soldiers.
On the way, he saw a beggar who was very poor and had no clothes on his body. The king felt very bad for him. He decided to help him. The king went to him and gave him food and clothes. But despite doing so, the king was not satisfied with himself. He decided to gave him a gold coin. The beggar was very happy after getting a gold coin. The beggar thanked the king and started going from there. But suddenly he lost his balance and the gold coin fallen into the drain. The beggar was trying to find that gold coin by putting his hands in the drain. By seeing all this, The king felt very sad. He called the beggar again to him. and gave him another gold coin. The beggar was extremely very happy by getting the another gold coin from the king.
But then again the beggar started finding his lost gold coin by putting his hands in the drain. The king was very surprised by seeing all this. He was thinking, i gave him another gold coin but he was still finding his lost gold coin. The king called the beggar again to him and gave him one more gold coin. Now the beggar had two gold coins but still he was searching the lost coin in the drain.
