    A comment on Talk: Candy Chang: Before I die I want to...

    Sep 6 2012: Before I die I want to use my creativity [ art , music , poetry etc ] for reminding people that we are human beings and not machines – that we have no competition and do not need to be a part of this rat race . That we can stop fighting against each other and refrain from negative thoughts & activities – as life is too short. I wish I could make people understand that it is more important to bring smile on a child’s face than to make weapons and deprive people from their rights !

    Apr 20 2012: To EG and All - God is nothing but " Truth " . And Truth [ as Natasha says ] - is - Awareness , Love , Survival [ in a proper form ] etc. Truth - is in discoveries , in love , affection , honesty , knowing your inner self - it is everywhere. TRUTH IS ABSOLUTE !

    A comment on Conversation: How do you move beyond why, when someone takes their own life? How do we get beyond the shame?

    Apr 20 2012: Sarah - there is NO SHAME - pls get it in your mind . People who do such things - do not do it purposely . A particular mental condition provokes a person to go for a suicide - I can say this confidently as I have studied things in this regard . And unless and until u reach that stage [ which I'll never want u to reach ...] - you will never understand why somone did this ! What has happened had to happen - it is D E S T I N Y , my friend . But life moves on and so will you .
    Do not sit with it - move on , don't feel ashamed but think of the things u can do to make the unfortunate people happy. Give your best and you shall succeed . [ Always keep this in mind that feeling bad will neither change the past nor the present and future ]

    What are the best things that you do ?
  • A comment on Conversation: How do you do that? I'm curious to know how you get motivated to reach your goals and get results.

    Apr 19 2012: Hello Simon -

    Birth , Death and Decay is - the absolute truth which no one can avoid . But , after birth we should not just grow up and die. There has to be a purpose in life . We all dream of doing something in life , achieving something - wealth , reputation , recognition , rewards etc . And for this we need motivation , training , practise !

    " IT IS NOT IN THE STARS TO HOLD OUR DESTINY BUT IN OURSELVES " and " Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes of your goals " - tell your students about these things . Train them , make them run after their goals ....

    For this you will have to share Success stories [ and videos ] with them . Let your students know about great people - their frustations , struggles etc and their determination to move ahead . History is the best teacher !

    Regards,

    Ayan
