What did Buddha preached!

"Nothing new was preached by Buddha but the pure Hinduism or Vedic Concepts which were either not practiced by common people of that time or which were only at the hands of some sections of people; that Vedic knowledge was preached to the common man.
Preaching the Vedic dharma to the common man was the greatest contribution done by Buddha."

Personal laws

"Notice one common thing about all personal laws. They only talk about Postmortem Justice and not preventive measures."

Tirumalanath, Neelaiagari, thiru

two types of fears

1. Fear of something or someone.
2. Fear out of nothing and no reason.
How to handle the second type of fear. It comes suddenly, stays there for couple of minutes but terrifies you so much! After that short period, u don't find any reason for that fear!"

Displacement of People

"The bad part of displacement of people is only due to the GREED of few people rather than the necessity or development of that place."

Meditations on child

"I normally get totally relaxed when i see small kids...very innocent, playful and full of energy. Just think about a small child and his actions; you will forget all other things."

Can't leave the Past!

"Can past be always behind us. Do we not carry this past and its effects to the present & future.
Do we only live in present...I doubt! Past & Future takes away more than half of our present. If one lives in present even for certain percentage, he can benefit and reap a lot of wonderful things in life. But we don't."

Tirumalanath, Neelaiagari, thiru

Past, Present & Future

"The past is behind us - learn from it; the future is ahead - reach for it; the present is now - live in it."

Personal choice not Government Act

"There are lot of areas which are personal but Government & legal agencies are forced to enter. Domestic violence, harassment at work place, dowry deaths, etc.. This issue of choosing or knowing gender is also one such. Choice of Parent is OK but its affect over the society in large is very very large and hard and Government is forced to do it."

Choosing a Child

"The basic idea among the society is that only illiterate and poor people go for abortions when they found out that the child is a girl. But I have heard many instances of educated and rich people misusing this test to find out the gender of the child and go for abortions. People with power and money can do things calmly without any issues. Pay to a private hospital and everything will done without much noise. What law must do is to enforce this act very seriously."
