उद्धरण - आचार्य श्रीराम शर्मा (गायत्री परिवार)

१ अपना मूल्य समझो और विश्वास करो कि तुम संसार के सबसे महत्वपूर्ण व्यक्ति हो
२ अपने को मनुष्य बनाने का प्रयत्न करो, यदि इसमें सफल हो गए तो हर काम में सफलता मिलेगी
३ सद्ज्ञान और सत्कर्म यह दो ईश्वर प्रदत्त पंख है, जिनके सहारे स्वर्ग तक उड़ सकते है
४ गृहस्थ एक तपोवन है, जिसमे संयम, सेवा और सहिष्णुता की साधना करनी पड़ती है
५ प्रसन्न रहने के दो ही उपाय है, आवश्यकतायें कम करें और परिस्थितियों से तालमेल बिठायें
६ शालीनता बिना मोल मिलती है पर उससे सब कुछ ख़रीदा जा सकता है
७ मन का संकल्प और शरीर का पराक्रम यदि किसी काम में पूरी तरह लगा दिया जाये, तो सफलता मिलकर रहेगी
८ पुण्य की जड़ हरी रहती है और पातालतक जाती है, उसके सत्परिणाम जन्म-जन्मान्तरों तक उपलब्ध होते रहते है
९ सद्गुणों की खाद और सचाई का पानी पाकर व्यक्तित्व का पौधा विकसित होता है
१० धर्म को संकीर्णता के बाड़े में बंद न करें उसे व्यवहार में उतरने दें ताकि वह आपका व समाज का भला कर सके

A father's letter to his son's teacher!

He will have to learn, I know,
that all men are not just,
all men are not true.
But teach him also that
for every scoundrel there is a hero;
that for every selfish Politician,
there is a dedicated leader…
Teach him for every enemy there is a friend,

Steer him away from envy,
if you can,
teach him the secret of
quiet laughter.


Let him learn early that
the bullies are the easiest to lick…
Teach him, if you can,
the wonder of books…
But also give him quiet time
to ponder the eternal mystery of birds in the sky,
bees in the sun,
and the flowers on a green hillside.

In the school teach him
it is far honourable to fail
than to cheat…
Teach him to have faith
in his own ideas,
even if everyone tells him
they are wrong…
Teach him to be gentle
with gentle people,
and tough with the tough.


Try to give my son
the strength not to follow the crowd
when everyone is getting on the band wagon…
Teach him to listen to all men…
but teach him also to filter
all he hears on a screen of truth,
and take only the good
that comes through.

Teach him if you can,
how to laugh when he is sad…
Teach him there is no shame in tears,
Teach him to scoff at cynics
and to beware of too much sweetness…
Teach him to sell his brawn
and brain to the highest bidders
but never to put a price-tag
on his heart and soul.

Teach him to close his ears
to a howling mob
and to stand and fight
if he thinks he’s right.
Treat him gently,
but do not cuddle him,
because only the test
of fire makes fine steel.

Let him have the courage
to be impatient…
let him have the patience to be brave.
Teach him always
to have sublime faith in himself,
because then he will have
sublime faith in mankind.

This is a big order,
but see what you can do…
He is such a fine little fellow,
my son!

Individual Contributions

"Never underestimate what you can bring to the table." - Rob Cooper, on StackOverflow.
I read that and immediately went back to a time earlier in my career. I worked in a large team of IT workers, with a variety of skills and experiences. Each of us had an area we specialized in (databases for me), but we had to cross train and handle calls and issues in other areas at times. Being a diverse team of about 20 people, we all had noticeable strengths and weaknesses. Some people were talented in almost all areas and could figure things out. Some struggled and sought out the experts in areas outside their own constantly.
We had one person in particular that was fairly low down on the skill level, and was in charge of a number of administrative-type tasks for the IT infrastructure. Things like basic group/user security, handling simpler AD tasks, things that you usually task to a junior level individual. I often heard others complaining that this person could not carry their own weight, or didn't do enough work.
However when this person went on vacation, and someone else had to fill in, I'd hear more complaints about having to do basic tasks, like managing groups or setting permissions. I couldn't imagine the way a team would work if it was filled with highly talented, highly capable superstars; we'd never get any work done because of the constant complaining.
We all have a role to fill at times in our lives. Sometimes it's a high level role, and at times it's a low level role. Each of us brings value for the work we do, and none of us is any "better" at life than any other. The lead developer might seem like they are more important than the secretary or the cleaning crew, but those other contributions are important as well. They're valuable, and they should be appreciated.

Love your child!

It is great to be in love. Your child is so lovely that any parent would love him/her most. Love is not limited to loving what we possess and you get chances in life to know it and practice as well.

Enjoyment may transit to higher levels when you are capable of not getting sad for long. When you are able to reduce your sad moments to 'moments' only knowing that this will change. Then you are able to learn that all possession is temporary and it will change. So you enjoy current situation knowing that it will change and continue to enjoy the 'change' as well.

You are great as you also grow with your child. God is within us but most apparent in the child. So your child deserves all the love and attention you can give to him or her.

Kahlil Gibran On Children

Kahlil Gibran On Children

Your children are not your children.
They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself.
They come through you but not from you,
And though they are with you yet they belong not to you.

You may give them your love but not your thoughts,
For they have their own thoughts.
You may house their bodies but not their souls,
For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow,
which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.
You may strive to be like them,
but seek not to make them like you.
For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.

You are the bows from which your children
as living arrows are sent forth.
The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite,
and He bends you with His might
that His arrows may go swift and far.
Let your bending in the archer's hand be for gladness;
For even as He loves the arrow that flies,
so He loves also the bow that is stable.
