It begins like that. See, the knowledge that we gain through the five senses is inferior to the knowledge that we gain through the intellect. You see the sun setting and the sun rising, but the intellect knows that the sun is neither setting, nor rising.
So like this, knowledge of the senses is inferior to the knowledge of the intellect. But knowledge of something beyond the intellect; intuitive knowledge, knowledge from the pure consciousness is even superior to intellectual knowledge. Intellectual knowledge can be proved and disproved, but a discovery which is beyond the intellectual calculation is something very different.

Q: Is there something like a good or bad being? If someone is bound by an outer problem, does the negative path follow him? How to get rid of that?
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar: There is no good or bad soul. There are strong and weak souls. Strong souls are happy, and weak ones are sad. Now, how does a soul become strong? Devotion strengthens the soul. Love strengthens the soul, hatred and sorrow weakens the soul.

It occured to me this morning after a long time, that I have a blog which I started. I want to write from now on. So that I can be clear in my thoughts, bring focus in my life.

today while cleaning my room, and my study table, I paused and decided to check phone songs list. And suddenly the one knowledge talk by Sri Sri started. His voice does something to my heart. I can't shut off if it starts. It was about 4 pillars of knowledge. and it reminded me that I have gone off the path.
I needed it. Looking for happiness in future and mind is scattered all over.

a) Dispassion: even pleasure can bring misery.
b) Longing for divine and something bigger than mundane.
c) 6 wealths
d) Viveka: everything is changing.

Be happy. Keep moving because everything is changing. When difficult times come, be patient. Have control over your senses. Example: when you are served with delicious food, you can't resist. And you overeat. And then senses tell you to stop(well almost).
Be focused on whatever you do.

management

The leaders who work most effectively, it seems to me, never say 'I'. And that's not because they have trained themselves not to say 'I'. They don't think 'I'. They think 'we'; they think 'team'. They understand their job to be to make the team function. They accept responsibility and don't sidestep it, but 'we' gets the credit... This is what creates trust, what enables you to get the task done.

managers opine

* People have different priorities. Way of looking at things.
I cannot change it since it is not wrong but it is not the most important thing according to me.

example:
* gathering support for a cause vs enforcing like dictator
