The moment we take birth in this beautiful planet called Earth, one thing is certain - DEATH!

Death is a dark truth so we detest it.

Those of us who are born in India are essentailly born into a certain religious affiliated family and if it is a Hindu family then into a particular caste! We cannot change the fact of where we are born and to whom we are born. Our inheritance, lineage and legacy can only determine WHAT WAS but would not determine WHAT IS  or WHAT IS  GOING TO BE!.

The essence of Life is how we determine the way we lead our life. The journey itself carries its own meaning and defines our purpose towards final destination - DEATH!

Gita, tells us a simple philosophy, that it is from Him that we've emerged and it is into him that we shall finally merge once our soul leaves the physical instrument, the BODY. I'm not the body, I'm not the mind, I'm HIM and into HIM that I shall return. Going by this philosophy of existence, the journey determines an asessment of how did we lead our lives?

Not all of us have the luxury of determining the nature of how we can lead our lives - some lives are a born tragedy and for these people, death is a liberation! For those, who have the blessed fortune of leading lives with the ability to think rationally and sensibly, death is essentially the next stage to life. If you are in this zone then let's pray and thank GOD for giving us the opportunity to be born to our parents who have / are taking care of us and providing for us. They are our living GODs on this beautiful planet, Earth. let's thank them and thank our ancestors, forefathers and guardian angels for being with us in our journey of life.

Let positive thougths come to us and positive energy fill our body, sustaining a healthy and active mind. Lets live and let Live. It takes more than one life time to explore INDIA leave alone the rest of the World! so lets be humble to say that we understand a little bit of India and are blessed to be born in a free and Independent INDIA!

In our journey of life, the minimum we can do is to retain the world as we found it and the maximum that we can do is to contribute in whatever little way we can in making it a better place for all living things to continue their journey. This in my view is the very essence of living.

Best Wishes.
