EC WISE

Life is the manifestation of consciousness.

The purpose of Meditation is to see "The Reality" and for that matter any real situation in our life or around us  as it is, by being objective and not subjective. 

Communication can become a beautiful extension of care, concern and compassion.

If we feel motivated by wrong reasons then we would also feel demotivated by wrong reasons. 

Things happen for a greater good.

I seek, I am.

When we make enemies, we fall to their levels; we start using their modus operandi and thus lose our greatness, the gold in us. It's like being penny wise, pound foolish. When we make friendships by forgiving our enemies, we rise; we are inspired by the unseen greatness in them(omnipresent in every human being), we also inspire by greatness in us(omnipresent in every human being).

Thinking is really easy- EC (Effective and Clear) without "I"; without S-self, and without SI (selfish interests).

A thought is a spark that ignites the mind.

There is ages of wisdom in languages.

When you don't have the real experience advantage, your mind is more fear/frustration (imagination) than facts. So along with thinking, action is also required to get the right reaction and feedback for the best learning outcome to happen.

No problem can withstand the onslaught of sustained thinking.

It is the power of a THOUGHT that creates a change.

EC - It's a Mind's Delight

Little drops of water,

Little grains of sand,
Make the mighty ocean
And the pleasant land.

Little deeds of kindness,
Little words of love,
Help to make earth happy,
Like the Heaven above.

Julia A. F. Carney

Who has seen the wind?

Neither I nor you:

But when the leaves hang trembling,

The wind is passing through. 

Who has seen the wind?

Neither you nor I:

But when the trees bow down their heads,

The wind is passing by.

 Christina Rossetti 
 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I am only one, but still I am one.

I cannot do everything, but still I can do something.

And because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do something that I can do.

I thank God for my handicaps, for through them I have found myself, my work, and my god.

Helen Keller

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
Two roads converged in a wood, and I took the one less travelled by. And that has made all the difference.

The woods were lovely, dark and deep. But I have promises to keep. And miles to go before I sleep. And miles to go before I sleep.
Robert Frost

We have to be mature enough to realise that life is not fair. One can only give the best to the given situation s/he is in.

Stephen Hawking

 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Life is... but a walking shadow...a poor player

who "struts and frets" his hour upon the stage.

And then is heard no more.

It's a tale, told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,

signifying nothing.

Shakespeare

 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Considering that, all hatred driven hence,
The soul recovers radical innocence
And learns at last that it  is self-delighting,
Self-appeasing, self-affrighting,
And that its own sweet will is Heaven's will;
She can, though every face should scowl
And every windy quarter howl
Or every bellows burst, be happy still.
From " A prayer for my daughter " by William Butler Yeats
 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I wandered lonely as a cloud

That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host of golden daffodils;
Besides the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten saw I at a glance,
Tossing their in Sprightly dance.

The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed-and-gazed-but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:

For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils. 
William Wordsworth
