Nature can also be dangerous and fatal. The fury of Tibet Nepal flash floods washed away a large part of the valley. This video compilation gives the idea about the sheer destructive force of the flood. Note: Graphic Media. Prayers for Nepal and Tibet 🙏🙏

A song isn't meaningless because it ends. A forest isn't meaningless because every individual tree dies. A conversation isn't meaningless because the speakers eventually leave. So how can life be meaningless? Write your song and make sure to share it.
A thin book and a thick book. Which one is more powerful?
Spirituality = Peace. Religion = Rules. Is that the right way to think about it?
Nearly 80 percent of humans are religious, pray regularly and believe in some sort of soul and connection to the divine. In some ways we are finite beings craving an infinite connection.
Do you believe in a Soul? If yes - how does the soul matter to you? If no - how are we all connected? Have you evr thought abt it? Most religions espouse the soul principle - can the world be explained without the need of a soul? I am just trying to rethink spirituality in the current century.
Arjuna - you speak sincerely, but your sorrow has no cause. The wise grieve neither for the living nor for the dead. -- Gita (2.11) The above quote is what hooks people to reading the Gita.
I just realised that it is extremely difficult to start something new 😅😅. Especially with a full time job and a full time family and social life! I have been trying to start the book wisdom club which I wrote about a few months ago.
The first rule of reading a wisdom book is simple, but brutal: Don’t read to confirm. Read to be changed.
Most people open a wisdom book expecting answers. But the great ones — the Gita, the Tao Te Ching, the Dhammapada, the Meditations — don't give you conclusions. They give you contradictions. They poke at your certainty.
How we read a wisdom book often matters more than what we read. A single sentence from the Gita, the Tao Te Ching, or Marcus Aurelius can either strike like lightning or pass by like fog-depending not just on the reader’s knowledge, but on their state of mind, life experiences, and even personality.
Ok - here it starts. I had been thinking about starting a public wisdom project for a long time. Who wants in? Do add your personal recommendations also. This is going to be a wonderful journey 😀 📚📚 #books #writingcommunity #wisdom
Life seems to be full of Chaos right now. I wonder if the world cycles through periods of quiet and chaos all the time. I had also stopped posting on a regular basis since Dad had a cardiac arrest in Feb. Luckily he survived and has recovered well. Will try to get back now again. 🤞🤞
I don't think AI is required to finish humanity. Modern life's burdens are already doing that job. Look at Japan. www.tokyoweekender.com/japan-life/n...
