Women standing up for themselves is bringing about a much-needed revolution. Men need to respect women, be more sensitive towards them and not objectify them. This sensitivity and respect must be instilled from the teenage years. Young men must also learn to manage and channel lust, aggression and other strong impulses in healthy ways. Music, dance, physical exercise, yoga and meditation can all help. Pranayama can be very effective in cultivating greater balance, sensitivity, sensibility and empathy.

Seeing flaws drives action. But to truly rest, see everything as perfect. Intelligence is balancing activity with rest.

When you are established in your Self, you are not holding on to concepts. You are loose, free, easy & open; just like a child.

Have faith in the laws of Nature, a power beyond explanation or logic. Have faith in the goodness of people. Have faith in yourself.

Life is much larger than birth and death, failure and success. You are the unblemished, pure, eternal Self. Knowing this, you will walk like a King.

If you have taken a step into spirituality, be happy in any condition. Even if you have to go through a tough time, do it with a smile.

The direction of life is only towards Love. Prosperity has no value without Love. The spiritual path has no value and is dry without Love.

Never underestimate your life. It is most precious. You never know what talents are hidden within you & what you have to offer to the world.

When you let go of "me and mine", you get access to the Infinite Energy, the Shiva Tattva, which is beauty, truth, and the ultimate blossoming of existence.
