What inspires me.

Every example of a breakthough. Every example of true surrender.

I accept no limits for any expression of human soul, mind, spirit and energy. I embrace vulnerability.

I am good at confronting demons and bring them back to the great process:):)

I am good in smiling when somebody says:

“Impssible.”

:):)

Cheers,
Albert

Re: What inspires me.

 ” Daivam Phalati Sarvatra Na Vidya Na Cha Paurusham ” !….

love & hugs

ps : 1)…Meenakshi, hope i am not rude !

2 )…Albert ,i liked two lines in your post :

 Every  example of true surrender.
 I embrace vulnerability.

….yes, nothing is impossible , with His Grace !…

Re: What inspires me.

Dear Jagadish, you'll HAVE to say more, because I am no Sanskrit scholar. To me it seems  you've written about devas and perhaps vidya blossoming in humans; but….the whole meaning eludes me. could you explain?

Re: What inspires me.

Hi Meenakshi ,  …roughly translated it means :  Only His Will prevails, not our Knowledge, or our Strength/Power.  ..the saying highlights the omnipotence of God in all our doings …when we succeed in achieving something we immediately take credit for the success …but it will be otherwise when it comes to failure …we conveniently overlook the fact  that for our effort to be successful  His Will & Grace is a must and  ultimate ……  …here I wish to recall verse 14 , ch-18 of Srimad Bhagavad Gita  

adhisthanam tatha karta karanam cha prithag-vidham    I

vividhas cha prithak chesta daivam chaivatra panchamam    II

Re: What inspires me.

Passion for whatever you are doing inspires me.  It makes me want to be a part of the experience.

Blessings!

Re: What inspires me.

I feel strength, confidence, the flexibility of acceptance and smiles in your post Alfred :)

Re: What inspires me.

Dear Anna,

you want my mutation to Alfred?:):)

Blessings,
Al-bert

Re: What inspires me.

Thank you, Albert, it would be inspiring if you share what it is that 'keeps you going' in the now

love

Re: What inspires me.

Anna, thats simple:

Radical responsibility and commitment to the tasks I have decided for. My job, my partnership, family, friends and simply orchestrating my blog here for now over 3 years:) it requires tremendous sacrifice for me as nearly my complete “free time” is invested in it….)

Re: What inspires me.

Albert, you make it sound so simple. It may be helpful to readers to know what motivates this attitude and how you keep motivated.

Coming back to your previous post:

Re: What inspires me.

O no.):) as you called me repeatedly Alfred…I thought you intended a subtle mutation:):)

Re: What inspires me.

tee hee, Albert

I thought we were about to be treated to a rundown on how you came to be who you are today :D which I hope you'll still consider (aargh I am terrible with names! Thats not to say I don't remember almost everything else)

Re: Pure Love !
…Bhattaji , will you kindly let me know how & where to find it !!…

Re: What inspires me.

LOL Jagadish, it's there on the tip of your nose!

love

Re: What inspires me.

..hahaha… Dear Anna , let us admit that when it comes to abstract things like Love , Enlightenment , Soul , Self etc etc instead of ' fixing '( can we ever  ? ) them we keep beating around the bush , pouring out all high sounding words which the greenhorns like me cannot digest or understand !!..( …may be , i'm a misfit here !)…
…here i am tempted to recall the words of Montaigne -
” Rejoice in the things that are present ; all else is beyond thee “….
Love & Hugs,
-jagadish
ps:…hope i have not hurt / irritated  Bhattaji with my ' straight ' question…

Re: What inspires me.

Dear Jagdishji,
“hurt” and “irritations” are words which have long been deleted from my dictionary by the grace of my revered Guruji.

You asked “Bhattaji , will you kindly let me know how & where to find it”

Most humbly, I can only tell you where I have found it, you may need to look for it following your own path and search.

I found it in the sacred lotus feet of my Guruji, who is known as Eli to all bright and loving souls of Gaia.

With humble pranaams to your higher self,
Respectfully,
Bhatta

Re: What inspires me.

 … Dear Anna ,
…my request  to the pundits is  to make  the point  more clear , concrete & tangible so that ignoramus like me can also understand !…let it not become an exclusive domain of  knowledgeable few!…
-jagadish

Re: What inspires me.

Dear Jagadish, will you forgive me if I say you sound angry?
I wonder if you feel there are 'some in the know' who withhold from 'those who do not know' - or are 'ignorant''? If this were the case, it would be enormously frustrating and even cruel! I'm wondering if there are 'way showers'\pundits but in the end we can only find the 'truth', for want of a better word, for ourselves?

love

Re: What inspires me.

Dear Jagdishji,
you said: …my request  to the pundits is  to make  the point  more clear , concrete & tangible so that ignoramus like me can also understand !…let it not become an exclusive domain of  knowledgeable few!…

The “pundits” have made the point very clear in Srimad Bhagwatam. Allow me to quote please:

“Even ignorant living entities can very easily come to know the Supreme Lord if they adopt those means prescribed by the Supreme Lord Himself. The process recommended by the Lord is to be known as bhāgavata-dharma, or devotional service to the Supreme Personality of Godhead. ”

” O King, one who accepts this process of devotional service to the Supreme Personality of Godhead will never blunder on his path in this world. Even while running with eyes closed, he will never trip or fall.”

“In accordance with the particular nature one has acquired in conditioned life, whatever one does with body, words, mind, senses, intelligence or purified consciousness one should offer to the Supreme, thinking, “This is for the pleasure of Lord Nārāyaṇa.”
(Srimad Bhagwatam, Canto 11, Chapter 2, Verse 34-36)

Does this not sound “more clear , concrete & tangible” ?

Pranaams
Bhatta

Re: What inspires me.

Very nice :)
I posted a blog entry just today about my new beliefs. I invite you to read it if you like. I hope it will spark some more conversation as well. I admire what inspires you and I agree completely with what you are saying. Love requires vulnerability, and that is something we must embrace in order to promote harmony.

I also like how the replies to this thread provide notes from the baghavad gita (I hope I spelled that correctly)! Truly we must be more spiritual rather than religious.

Re: What inspires me.

Thank you my brother, Bhatta
