I am not sure about this event happen. but i like this story.

One incidence is quoted.

India vs Australia [2004] match… Brad Hogg took Sachin’s wicket. At the end of the match Hogg gave that Ball to Sachin for his autograph. Sachin put his sign with one beautiful sentence,

“IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN.”

Till today Hogg could not take his wicket for the second time. After this incident Brad Hogg and Sachin Tendulkar came face to face 21 times..But he could never get the Master Blaster out

THAT’S CONFIDENCE & DEDICATION..!

Again a busy month I am sorry that I cant write more this month also. But some of my readers really like the Buddha song/chat collection.

To be honest I am not believe in chants. I have read something like “Buddha told that ‘there is no power in my words or in my sutras unless they are bring practical in once life.” Its so true that the Buddhism is so practical teaching. Soon planning to write about Vipassana. Check it out

The N?laka??ha Dh?ran?also known as Mah? Karu?? Dh?ran? , popularly known as the Great Compassion Mantra in English, and known as the Dàb?i Zhòu (???) in Mandarin Chinese, is a dharani of Mahayana Buddhist origin. It was spoken by the bodhisattva Avalokitesvara before an assembly of Buddhas, bodhisattvas, devas and kings, according to the Mahakarunikacitta Sutra. Like the now popular six-syllable mantra, it is a popular mantra synonymous with Avalokitesvara in East Asia. It is often used for protection or purification. – Wikipedia.

Very nice story. I like so much.

Let me know what is there in your Jar .

When things in your life seem, almost too much to handle,
When 24 Hours in a day is not enough,
Remember the mayonnaise jar and 2 cups of coffee.

A professor stood before his philosophy class
and had some items in front of him.
When the class began, wordlessly,
He picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar
And proceeded to fill it with golf balls.

He then asked the students, if the jar was full.
They agreed that it was.

The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured
them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly.
The pebbles rolled into the open Areas between the golf balls.

He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.

The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar.
Of course, the sand filled up everything else.
He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with a unanimous ‘yes.’

The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar, effectively
filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed.

‘Now,’ said the professor, as the laughter subsided,
‘I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life.
The golf balls are the important things – family,
children, health, Friends, and Favorite passions –
Things that if everything else was lost and only they remained, Your life would still be full.

The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, house, and car.

The sand is everything else –The small stuff.

‘If you put the sand into the jar first,’ He continued,
there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls.
The same goes for life.

If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff,
You will never have room for the things that are important to you.

So…

Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.
Play With your children.
Take time to get medical checkups.
Take your partner out to dinner.

There will always be time to clean the house and fix the disposal.

‘Take care of the golf balls first –
The things that really matter.
Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.’

One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee represented.

The professor smiled.
‘I’m glad you asked’.

It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem,
there’s always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend.’

A nice story…

One old man was sitting with his 25 years old son in the train.The train was about to leave the station. All passengers were settling down on their
seat. As the train started, young man was filled with lots of joy and curiosity.
He was sitting towards the window side. He passed out one hand to feel the passing air and shouted, “Papa see all trees are going behind”.
The old man smiled and admired son’s feelings.
Beside the young man one couple was sitting and listing all the conversation between father and
son. They were feeling little awkward on the attitude of 25 years old behaving like a small child.

Suddenly young man again shouted, “Papa see the pond and animals.The clouds are moving with train”.
The Couple was watching the young man
embarrassingly. Now it started raining and some of
the water drops touched the young man’s hand. He was filled with joy and he closed his eyes.
He shouted again,” Papa it’s raining, water is touching me, see papa”.
The couple couldn’t help themselves n asked old man,”Why don’t u take ur son to some hospital for consultations?”
The old man said,” Yes, We were coming
from hospital only. Today, my son got his eyes first time in life”.

We must not come to any conclusion until we know all facts.
