The name of all continents end with same letter with which they start. The language 'malayalam' can be read same from both sides. The word 'four' has four letters. In English language there is no number whose number of letters is equal to its value. Eyeball is the only part of the human body that remains in same size from birth to death. Only human beings can sleep by their backbone. We can not walk straight with closed eyes. We can not sneeze keeping our eyes open. It's speed is about 160km/hour. We can not smell two different aromas(scent) at a time. Hair is the second fastest growing tissue in the body than bone marrow. The eye is the first most important organ of the human body formed in the womb. in a day about 13 drops of tears is secreted from our eyes. Among them 6 drops of tears change into vapour and the rest  goes to the nose. Dolphin sleeps one eye opened. A crocodile can not stick it's tongue out.

What you should do is to throw the doors of your being wide upon to the Divine. The moment you conceal something, you step straight into Falsehood. The least suppression on your part pulls you immediately down into unconsciousness. If you want to be fully conscious, be always in front of the Truth– completely open yourself and try your utmost to let it see deep inside you, into every corner of your being. That alone will bring into you light and consciousness and all that is most true. Be absolutely modest–that is to say, know the distance between what you are and what is to be, not allowing the crude physical mentality to think that it knows when it does not, that it can judge when it can not. Modesty implies the giving up of yourself to the Divine whole-heartedly, asking for help and, by submission, winning the freedom and absence of responsibility which imparts to the mind utter quietness. Not otherwise can you hope to attain the union with the Divine Consciousness and the Divine ...

You can do nothing with others unless you are able to do it with yourself. You can never give a good advice to anyone unless you are able to give it to yourself first, and to follow it. And if you see a difficulty somewhere, the best way of changing this difficulty is to change it in yourself first. If you see a defect in anyone, you may be sure it is in you, and you begin to change it in yourself. And when you will have changed it in yourself, you will be strong enough to change it in others. And this is a wonderful thing. People don't realize what an infinite grace it is that this universe is arranged in such a way that there is a collection of substance, from the most material to the highest spiritual, all that gathered together into what is called a small individual, but at the disposal of a central Will. And that is yours, your field of work, nobody can take it away from you, it is your own property. And to the extent you can work upon it, you will be able to have an action u...

It is very difficult to find the borderland between a true need and a desire.... And there we really face a problem which compels an extra ordinary sincerity, for the very first way in which the vital meets life is through desire––and yet, there are necessities. But how to know if things are really necessary, not desired?... For that you must observe yourself very, very attentively, and if there is anything in you which produces something like a small intense vibration, then you may be sure that there lies a desire. For example, you say, "This food is necessary for me"– you believe, you imagine, you think that you need such and such a thing and you find the necessary means to obtain the thing. To know if it is a need or a desire, you must look at yourself very closely and ask yourself, "What will happen if I can not get the thing?". Then if the immediate answer is, "Oh, it will be very bad", you may be sure that it is a matter of desire. It is the same fo...

The Buddha has said that there is a greater joy in overcoming a desire than in satisfying it. It is an experience everybody can have and one that is truly very interesting, very interesting...         There is a kind of inner communion with the psychic being which takes place when one willingly gives up a desire, and because of this one feels a much greater joy than if he had satisfied his desire. Besides, most usually, almost without exception, when one satisfies a desire it always leaves a kind of bitter taste somewhere.       There is not one satisfied desire which does not give a kind of bitterness; as when one has eaten too sugary a sweet it fills your mouth with bitterness. It is like that. You must try sincerely. Naturally you must not pretend to give up desire and keep it in a corner, because then one becomes very unhappy. You must do it sincerely.            -The Mother

Usually all education, all culture, all refinement of the senses and the being is one of the best ways of curing instincts, desires, passions. To eliminate these things does not cure them; to cultivate, intellectualise, refine them, this is the surest means of curing. To give the greatest possible development for progress and growth, to acquire a certain sense of harmony and exactness of perception, this is a part of the culture of the being, of the education of the being...           Education certainly one of the best means of preparing the consciousness for a higher development. There are people with very crude and very simple nature's, who can have great aspiration and attain a certain spiritual development, but the base will always be of an interior quality, and as soon as they return to their ordinary consciousness they will find obstacles in it, because the stuff is too thin, there are not enough elements in their vital and material consciousness to e...

One Needs Education...You think that you are sent to school, that you are made to do exercises, all this just for the pleasure of vexing you? It is because it's indispensable for you to have a frame in which you can learn how to form yourself. If you did your work of individualisation, of total formation, by yourself, all alone in a corner, nothing at all would be asked of you. But you don't do it, you wouldn't do it, there's not a single child who would do it, he wouldn't even know how to do it, where to begin. If a child were not taught how to live, he could not live, he wouldn't know how to do anything. If everyone had to go through the whole experience needed for the formation of an individuality, he would be long dead before having began to live! This is the advantage of those accumulated through centuries- who have had the experience and tell you, "Well, if you want to go quickly, to know in a few years what has been learnt through centuries, do thi...
