One more opportunity for a New Beginning .... Wish all of you a Happy and Prosperous new year 2010
New beginnings December 31, 2010"A new beginning brings with it a freshness that is hard to ignore as it brings with it fresh hope and the promise of bright days ahead." – Janina Gomes (The Speaking Tree, Times of India, December 29, 2010).When things go wrong …when hopes and dreams seem to be shattering……when the last second, hour, day and year haunts…..what should one do? Repent on the past that went wrong? Worry on the next moment, next hour, next day or the next month and year? You are right Gomes, a new beginning, a new fresh beginning is a wonderful option! And when should this new beginning take off? Is it the next fresh second, it it the next fresh hour day, month or the year? A fresh beginning could be conceived at the earliest …….could be the next second or the next minutes. Yes explore freshness all over again in the fresh new beginning……there are n number of opportunities for new beginnings. Explore as you move from second to second, life is full of abundance, if we act unconditionally and abundantly. Next beautiful moment is waiting for our new beginning!

Ensure your tomorrow's tomorrow and tomorrow's yesterday ..... do this by being in the this very moment ... this very day .... cheers ...... be smiling now .... LbnRaj
"Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but any one can start today and make a new ending" - Maria Robinson (Sacred Space, Times of India, December 30, 2010). Yes Maria, no one can go back for initiating a new beginning..... but human mind is such that we always tend to think of how bad or how good was our beginning yesterday ..... last month .... and we keep building up castles in the air. Whatever was the beginning .... or the start ... it was ... it is past now....... that beginning is beyond correction. The beginning that is history now ... should be built upon ..... refreshed with new beginnings .... am I right? We can always make new beginnings .... for achieving desired endings... desired goals. It is indeed beautiful to be in the present ..... because it takes care of your history of today as you can see it from tommorrow. By being in present .... you can shape a better and desired tommorrow ..... am i right? Be in the present and define your future history and future tommorrows. Cheers .... be smiling now.......... lbnRaj Librarianship is a noble profession http://indialibrarian-intl.blogspot.com/ 1816gbgv |

Why holidays when every day is a holiday?
Why holidays? "When you like your work, every day is a holiday". Frank Tyger. (Times of India, Sacred Space, 29, December 2010). It raises questions like ….. What do we mean by a holiday? Can we have or should we have holidays continuously. Is it not logical to have a distinction between a holiday and a working day. Let us assume that we enjoy our work on a working day a lot ……………….and it is really a celebration every whey while we are on work. Can we celebrate every day every moment……………..then the celebration loses its importance. We like sweets ……………………can we have sweets every day ………..every moment. We need to be cheerful every second…………….everyday … then no one likes to be cheerful………..it becomes so boring you know……………………….. Now should we have holiday every day………………………… Then is it wise to like our work so much that …………….every day looks like a holiday? ……………………………….. I don't know……………… it is quite natural not to like the work so much ……………… so that we may have those rare moments when we liked the work so much ……….and so much passionately? I think Librarians will agree on this ? Am I right?

Why we dont believe in the un seen and un touchable?
To believe in the unseen … !!! "To believe in the things, you can see and touch is no belief at all. But to believe in the unseen is both a triumph and a blessing." Bob Proctor (Source : Foggy Vision?, Sacred Space.- Times of India , December 28, 2010). Yes most of us do believe in the unseen, untouchable,…. without our knowledge. We live with the unseen, un perceivable and all pervading supreme power unawares. Either by deep penance ………….meditation……………….or introspection …………..we do believe the unseen, un touchable at times. But again we may often come back to the basics ………….that is trusting and believing only that which can be seen and touched. We keep oscillating between mind and matter ……….continuously ………..endlessly.

Mother, Mother and Mother !!!!!!!!
mother "I am the mother of the wicked, as I am the mother of the virtuous. Never fear. Whever you are in distress, so your self, 'I have a mother'." (Sri Sarada Devi). Beautiful indeed! Sri Sarada Devi has told what every one does without any one being told about this. Whenever We are in trouble or distress …. We suddenly pronounce ………… 'maa'……………. Avva………………. Mummy……………….. That is the nature's gift to human kind known as Mother. There cannot be any other example of unconditional and unlimited love …………….. other than mother. "If you want peace do not see the faults of others. Rather see your own faults. Learn to make the w2hole world your own. No one is stranger, my child. The whole world is your own." (Sri Sarada Devi). True indeed ……………………we keep searching for the mistakes that others commit tend to commit………………..unaware of what mistakes we commit …………..keep committing. No one is a stranger in this world …………. What a truth. We are all connected by land water and air and space……………………… nothing in universe is disconnected. Every thing is connected with the super power……….the supreme power………….all inclusive of living and non living things. I am so much thank ful to Times of India for including these two wonderful columns known as Sacred Space and The Speaking Tree. They are constant source of inspiration, courage and wisdom…………..not only to me but all those who are addicted to wait for the days Sacred Space and The Speaking Tree. Hope Librarians do have this habit of having a daily glimpse of sacred space and The speaking Tree. I wish they do! What do you Say?

--------------------------------------------------------------
I dont know how and why? I have developed this fascination for reading. The speaking Tree and Sacred Space columns of Times of India for the last few years. It has almost become an obsession to read thse just like I have my breakfast and dinner. Hats Off to Times fo India for these columns on centre page. The last night I had a peculiar dream. One of my colleagues / friends proessional Acquintance (not so much known) drops into my library / office ...saying "thank you for the invite.... / I said ' oh it is my pleasure.... me, my friend said a colleague of my mine get to the auditorium and get to the podium. Instead of chairs there was a long streatching matress on wwhich we a ere resting .... relaxing. That was a very light and relaxing moment f9or we three or rour we / were convrsing some things which I dont remember now. I dont know whether we were relaxing... or almost e had ... ere lying . There is a sleeping position.... The whole auduience infront of of us and wer were shispering...gossipping. Suddenly my colleague asks me what time the program starts? Then suddenly vwake up. oh is there a program/? My God I forgot..... e need to arrange for it... oh my God the audience is already there in front of us and we really did not do anything. How come the uests of honour did not arrive? Then the dream shatters........... and I keep thinking on te dream..that went by. How come dreams are at times so illogical..... disconnected and meanless. Now this time of the day I have got to write on this when I incidentally happen tro read something.....by Jui Padegar on Aurobindo (TOI, the Speaking Tree 6-9-2010). According to Aurobindo, "There are several realms of consciousness beyond the physical world we live in and that these planes of consciousness are in facct and that these planes of consciousness are in fact the other worlds that are as real as we take our own world to be. When one sleeps the subconscient mind is freed from the shackles of the mind that operates in the physical world, travelling across other those other worlds soaking in the experiences both good and bad..... that are needed for further consciousness evolution of the individual in the dream state.
I end this write up with the words of Marguerite Theophil, .... working with "What is means to seek meaning within the absurd, peace within chaos, light within darkness, joy within sufering without the need to deny the reality of absurdity, chaos darkness and sufering" (The Speaking Tree, Your faithfully with grace, Times of India, 01-10-2010).

Every one wants to be good! Any thing wrong with this?
Every one wants to be good! I have never come across any one who basically un conditionally wants to be a bad doer. No one wants to be known as a bad person. No one wants to do wrong and bad things. Then why do we get into wrong things…….. why do we get to do bad things? Even in case of small medium and hard core criminals basically never intend ………………….. intended to be be bad and bad doer. Every one know that they need to be noticed………………… they need to be acknowledge for their being important …………………. their being correct, their being righteous. May when some one does some un acceptable thing ……………………. Wrong thing …………………. Bad thing – they still are not convinced that they are wrong persons………………… they justify being right in their own right………………….. in their own logic. May be there is lot of competition to be good in this world. It is so difficult be known as a good person …………….. and be known for that. And many a time we get disgusted to many many good people around…………………. We just cant stand so many good people around ………………. Who are bent upon under mining my goodness and being right? There is lot of competition in this world to be good person …………………. More better person than others…………………. Can I call it as a healthy competition? -LbnRaj ; lotus5673@yahoo.co.in ; Librarianship is a noble profession http://indialibrarian-intl.blogspot.com/1816gbgv |

What is this Big Bird Thinking? ....
Can Librarians be big bird thinkers? "Big bird thinkers are those who are so mature that nothing can distract them from their objectives, who give well-considered responses when in adverse situations, rather than simply indulging in an emotional backlash. …………….. Spirituality is good for the all-round development of the individual's personality, for it makes you free of tension and friendly towards all. Spirituality is the way to all kind of success. …………………… positive thinking makes you a 'bid bird thinker' and 'big bird thinking' imbues the human character with spirituality. Although this is an inner quality, it is this inner quality that has the power to better all your external affairs." - Maulana Wahiduddin Khan ; www.cpsglobal.org (Source : The Speaking Tree, Times of India, December 22, 2010). Yes, I dont know what is my status with regard to Big Bird Thinking ..... I do strongly feel and believe that I do have the habit of spontaneous emotional back lashes .... which is not in tune with this philosophy. I know those who fall in this category of thinking … are much above quick back lashes …. They go in for considered and well-thought out responses. But what about being natural and spontaneous … being simple and responsive ….. just in tune with the natural laws and nature. I think I need to think further on this. I think librarians on line these days are more into responsive …. Quick reactive mode than considered responses on wide range of their interests and avocations? Am I right? What about modern bloggers …. Can we find many bloggers who fall into the category of 'big bird thinkers' ? Librarianship is a noble profession http://indialibrarian-intl.blogspot.com/1816gbgv |

What is this loving detachment?
Loving detachment "Truly wise is he who is un stirred by praise or blame , by love or hatred. He is not moved by the opposites of life. Verily does he delight in the blissful self." - Srimad Bhagavatam (Source : Sacred Space, Times of India, December 21, 2010). This line of thinking has always made me think a lot … …. Over and over again. In fact my friends, family and close associates call me as insensitive and non responsive to day today ups and downs in life. May be true … ………………….. it is rare that I cry … ………………….. yeas ……………… people say I have lot of patience ……………………………may be some others may call me as shameless ……………………thick skinned. In the heart of heart I know I am not insensitive ………………I do respond I do feel I do feel bad. The question that haunts is is it necessary that I must be so vocal about my sadness or happiness? But sincerely appreciate those who are vocal about their happiness or sorrows. I think people who express everything openly ……………frankly get lightened…………………….get relaxed then the ones who do not break down on any thing. May be ………………..i should know more about not being moved by opposites of life. Is it that people don't get moved by opposites or that they really gone above such levels. At times I have noticed some individuals like my father ….. some times a teacher …..not really responding ………………………………………..reacting much to the tunes of either happy moments or when some mishap happens. Could be when one puts on experience …………………….sees lots of ups and downs of life ……………….this could be the time ………………when one takes every thing easily …………………….. or they have moral balance to face ………………………realize the higher values of life…………………higher levels of ultimate realities of life. Yes in this regard I need to learn a lot understand a lot with regard to being in blissful state…………………….and I will find time to do that sooner or later.

May be… just like I have morning tea … I may have to read such simple but powerful thoughts every day … every morning ..
Good morning, Universal Love "Try your best to treat others as you would wish to be treated yourself, and you will find that this is the shortest way to benevolence". – Mencius (Source : Sacred Space, Times of India, December 20, 2010). Yes , many a time I feel upset about the way some of my colleagues, friends and neighbours neglect me. They don't wish me when they see me for the first time on a day. I think I care every one … but why people around don't respond don't respond kindly. Yes may be the way want every one to treat me … I may not have done. I may have been busy in my own way … and that I did not treat some one with due attention… due care … due love … yes I have to learn to be kind to people around .. If I ever want others to be kind and loving towards me. What about those who had been very kind enough to be … so much caring towards me … and I had no time to respond to them in the same intensity with which they treated me all the times….. If Asha did not say good morning to me …. Why I did not say? Why should I expect only the others to start … why not with me. I know this as to why it happens this way …. And why I keep forgetting this every time … and I have to read inspiring words of great people like Mencius again and again. May be… just like I have morning tea … I may have to read such simple but powerful thoughts every day … every morning .. may be every night before going to bed. Why should I think that I have arrived at some perfections …. Why do I forget to learn on a regular basis day in and out!
