Mistake




Roman philosopher said this some thousand years ago and still it is true for us.

Mistake 1: Assuming that personal gain is obtained by crushing others.

Mistake 2: To keep on worrying about things that cannot be changed or corrected.

Mistake 3: Insisting that a thing is impossible because you cannot accomplish it.

Mistake 4: Refusing to set aside trivial preferences.

Mistake 5: Neglecting development and refinement of mind.

Mistake 6: Attempting to compel others to believe and live as we do.

Dear abhay
Thanks very much for appreciating for blog templet its really cool i loved it too :) and now abt this post where you asked abt relation btw the knowledge and the pic

the simple thing wat happened when we realize that we have committed a mistake we simple want to hide our face (generally because of shame/ego) and that how we want to close our eyes basically want to escape from eye contacts :) and more over sometime we commit crime a conscious mistake with our eyes closed like we are not seeing it :) thats how that gal in pic hiding her face and more over keeping her eyes closed... now that is one interpretation to the pic to relate the title mistake definitely u can have many :) now truely speaking to you when i was posting this topic i searched on google image for mistake and i liked it most so chose this one :) long story short :)

Eat Less, Digest More

Spiritual or self-help teaching is a slippery path to walk upon. Being a spiritual teacher comes with a danger that one can have a notion of knowing without knowing. For example, i t is one thing to intellectually understand yoga is good for the healthy body but then doing it every day to keep the body healthy is an entirely different thing. Similarly, it is one thing to understand the benefit of practicing acceptance for the peace of mind then to living the acceptance.  Let's  expand upon it a bit.
