“If you knew the magnificence of the three, 

six and nine, you would have a key to the 

universe.” 

Nikola Tesla

Do it well...

Every day, my daddy told me the same thing. 

'Once a task is just begun, never leave it till 

it's done. Be the labour great or small, do it 

well or not at all.' 

Quincy Jones

True heart

A true heart is unafraid,

blazing with adamantine fire

it cannot be buffeted by gales!

Reflecting the universe's purpose

unstoppable flowing creation.

Empty becomes full!

The heart that is untrue fears!

Creating ghosts and foes, 

out of step with the natural flow

Dispersing life's energy in illusions

Breaking sacred bridges of trust!

Full becomes empty!

Somwang (Book of poems 2)

Bright star,

"Bright star! would I were steadfast as thou art

Not in lone splendour hung aloft the night,

And watching, with eternal lids apart,

Like Nature’s patient sleepless Eremite,

The moving waters at their priest like task

Of pure ablution round earth’s human shores,

Or gazing on the new soft fallen mask

Of snow upon the mountains and the moors

No, yet still steadfast, still unchangeable,

Pillow’d upon my fair love’s ripening breast,

To feel for ever its soft fall and swell,

Awake for ever in a sweet unrest,

Still, still to hear her tender-taken breath,

And so live ever - or else swoon to death."

John Keats

Karma means...

"Karma means both action and memory. 

There is no memory without action and 

no action without memory."

Sadhguru

Mystic seeker...

"The scientific observer of Nature is a 

kind of mystic seeker in the act of prayer."

Muhammad Iqbal

Getting old...

"The good news about getting old is

that we can realize our flaws and

remedy them".

Old wisdom saying

Seeking...

"If you are really looking for truth, 

don’t assume anything – just seek."

Sadhguru

Our use...

"Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace. 

Where there is hatred, let me sow love."

Francis of Assisi

A gift...

"A gift consists not in what is done or given, 

but in the intention of the giver or doer." 

Lucius Annaeus Seneca

Yesterday...

"Yesterday lives only in your mind."

Sadhguru

A Day Will Come

"A day will come in every life,

When appreciation is rendered.

And this should be taken seriously, 

And given with love and tender. 

Anyone who deserves appreciation, 

Must have done something great. 

So share with them the way you feel, 

And always treat them right. 

But keep in mind that appreciation, 

Should be given again and again. 

If you truly appreciate, 

You'll remind them how great they've been. 

Do something special to thank the ones, 

Who've made a difference to you. 

But don't forget to thank them again, 

For everything they do." 

Julie Herbert 

Fragrance...

"What fragrance is to a flower, 

love is to a human being."

Sadhguru

Anthem...

"What passing-bells for these who die as cattle? 

 Only the monstrous anger of the guns. 

Only the stuttering rifles' rapid rattle 

Can patter out their hasty horisons. 

No mockeries now for them; no prayers nor bells; 

Nor any voice of mourning save the choirs,

The shrill, demented choirs of wailing shells; 

And bugles calling for them from sad shires. 

What candles may be held to speed them all? 

Not in the hands of boys, but in their eyes 

Shall shine the holy glimmers of goodbyes. 

The pallor of girls' brows shall be their pall; 

Their flowers the tenderness of patient minds, 

And each slow dusk a drawing-down of blinds."

Wilfred Owen

Fool...

“The fool doth think he is wise, 

but the wise man knows himself to be a fool.” 

William Shakespeare
As You Like It

Sunbeam...

"A single sunbeam is enough to 

drive away many shadows." 

Francis of Assisi

Cosmos...

"In the vastness of the cosmos, everything
is going perfect, but one nasty little thought
in your mind can make it a bad 

day. That is lack of perspective." 

Sadhguru

Human Life

“Human life is but a series of footnotes 

to a vast obscure unfinished masterpiece” 

Vladimir Nabokov
