If carefully seen, when shocked or hurt, if you are able to express your feelings,
you are relieved of it and the same when mistakenly suppressed; then that pain
in its perverted form becomes your destiny.

If you carefully look at the vastness of the universe or the enormous depths
of the ocean with awareness even for a second, all your sorrows will get
dissipated; because then you will be left with no pride of being someone "great"
or "exceptional".
The act which has the right balance of love, concentration, knowledge and karma
is positive, whatever else you do, the results are bound to be negative.

initiates the process that leads to death.

person to cover up what pinches him the most, deep within.
"Act without expectations"...what Krishna said is cent percent true. All he is

joyously performed is the only act for which the by-product is also joy...and that
too instantly, hand-in-hand.
