LIVE IN THE PRESENT :
A honeybee spends all his time, energy, and life working to store honey.
But for what reason? In the end, all that precious honey gets taken away and eaten by others!
Similarly, it is a waste if we spend all our lives planning and hoarding for the future.
Not even a second of the future is in our hands.
Therefore, live in the present. We are the present.
Leave the future in God's hands. He will look after everything.
What we are meant to undergo, we will undergo.
What we are to receive, we shall receive.
Be satisfied and happy with what you have at present.
Try, my children wholeheartedly. - amma
I read this in amma quotes two days back .. found it so perfect for me, as if it was written for me ..
I also realize that, Its not easy to always do that, human mind always plays tricks with him .. but its upto us to control that mind which wanders from past to future ... but we got to make it stick to present .. and thats why amma in the end writes try my children ...and try wholeheartedly ...
ज़िंदगी क्या है जानने के लिये
ज़िंदा रहना बहुत जरुरी है
आज तक कोई भी रहा तो नही
सारी वादी उदास बैठी है
मौसमे गुल ने खुदकशी कर ली
किसने बरुद बोया बागो मे
आओ हम सब पहन ले आइने
सारे देखेंगे अपना ही चेहरा
सारे हसीन लगेंगे यहाँ
है नही जो दिखाई देता है
आइने पर छपा हुआ चेहरा
तर्जुमा आइने का ठीक नही
हम को गलिब ने येह दुआ दी थी
तुम सलामत रहो हज़ार बरस
ये बरस तो फकत दिनो मे गया
लब तेरे मीर ने भी देखे है
पखुड़ी एक गुलाब की सी है
बात सुनते तो गलिब रो जाते
ऐसे बिखरे है रात दिन जैसे
मोतियो वाला हार टूट गया
तुमने मुझको पिरो के रखा था
