A successful life is the one which has no desires left in the mind at the time of
death.
No matter how much ever your brain understands, ultimately it is the "mind"
that needs to be transformed. Because of wrong decisions being taken in an
enraged state of mind, the brain may decide n-number of times not to get angry

end up being angry.
Since we have taken human birth, doing our karma is the only ''worship''

duties.
There is no such man known in history whose departure from this world has

To get enthused about something before it is achieved, always brings undesired

to its viewers.
Intelligent is not the one who knows the formula of water i.e. H2O. But intelligent is the one, who realizes when he is thirsty and knows the amount of water to be consumed to quench it.
Have we gone so crazy that despite repeatedly failing in endeavours initiated
in auspicious time...we still keep visiting pundits to check the auspicious time
again and again.
