The teachings of Veda become himsa when performed for personal gains.

If performed as an offering to God, there will be no himsa

attached to it and no sin in the sacrifices.


So it is the attitude which decides whether an action is himsa or ahimsa.

An action performed without the concepts “I” and “my” is

not considered to be performed – even though it is performed.

It is the inaction in action”

 

[Visalakshi Ramani]

“தந்தையின் தொடர்பு பந்தம் விளைவித்தால்
பந்தம் விளையும் வன விலங்குகளுக்கும் கூட!


கவலை உண்டாகும் உமக்கு உணவினால்;
கவலை உண்டாகும் எனக்கு அரசாட்சியால்!


கவலை உண்டாவது பொதுவே இருவருக்கும்;
கவலையை உண்டாக்கும் காரணங்களே வேறு!

 

[Visalakshi Ramani]

“மனோபந்தம் ஆகும் மெய்யான பந்தம்;
மணபந்தம் ஆகாது மெய்யான பந்தம்!”

Love is the strongest force the world possesses, and yet it is the humblest imaginable.


Mahatma Gandhi

I think LOVE can be compared to the hair on the head for several reasons.

1. It is respected when it is in the right place / placed on the right person.

2.It can support several times its own weight!

A single strand of hair can support a 100 gram weight!!!

A puny mom can lift a CAR to protect and rescue her child.

3. When it becomes thin, things become unsightly / unbearable.
