A rare Conversation between Krishna and Today's Arjun

Arjun : I can’t find free time. Life has become hectic.

Krishna : Activity gets you busy. But productivity gets you free.

Arjun : Why has life become complicated now?

Krishna : Stop analyzing life... It makes it complicated. Just live it.

Arjun : Why are we then constantly unhappy?

Krishna : Worrying has become your habit. That’s why you are not happy.

Arjun : Why do good people always suffer?

Krishna : Diamond cannot be polished without friction. Gold cannot be purified without fire. Good people go through trials, but don’t suffer. With that experience their life becomes better, not bitter.

Arjun : You mean to say such experience is useful?

Krishna : Yes. In every term, Experience is a hard teacher. She gives the test first and the lessons later.

Arjun : Because of so many problems, we don’t know where we are heading…

Krishna : If you look outside you will not know where you are heading. Look inside. Eyes provide sight. Heart provides the way.

Arjun : Does failure hurt more than moving in the right direction?

Krishna : Success is a measure as decided by others. Satisfaction is a measure as decided by you.

Arjun : In tough times, how do you stay motivated?

Krishna : Always look at how far you have come rather than how far you have to go. Always count your blessing, not what you are missing.

Arjun : What surprises you about people?

Krishna : When they suffer they ask, "why me?" When they prosper, they never ask "Why me?"

Arjun : How can I get the best out of life?

Krishna : Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without fear.

Arjun : One last question. Sometimes I feel my prayers are not answered.

Krishna : There are no unanswered prayers. Keep the faith and drop the fear. Life is a mystery to solve, not a problem to resolve. Trust me. Life is wonderful if you know how to live.

Last Words of Steve Jobs

I reached the pinnacle of success in the business world.

In others’ eyes, my life is an epitome of success.

However, aside from work, I have little joy. In the end, wealth is only a fact of life that I am accustomed to.

At this moment, lying on the sick bed and recalling my whole life, I realize that all the recognition and wealth that I took so much pride in, have paled and become meaningless in the face of impending death.

In the darkness, I look at the green lights from the life supporting machines and hear the humming mechanical sounds, I can feel the breath of God of death drawing closer…

Now I know, when we have accumulated sufficient wealth to last our lifetime, we should pursue other matters that are unrelated to wealth…

Should be something that is more important:

Perhaps relationships, perhaps art, perhaps a dream from younger days ...

Non-stop pursuing of wealth will only turn a person into a twisted being, just like me.

God gave us the senses to let us feel the love in everyone’s heart, not the illusions brought about by wealth.

The wealth I have won in my life I cannot bring with me.

What I can bring is only the memories precipitated by love.

That’s the true riches which will follow you, accompany you, giving you strength and light to go on.

Love can travel a thousand miles. Life has no limit. Go where you want to go. Reach the height you want to reach. It is all in your heart and in your hands.

What is the most expensive bed in the world? - "Sick bed" …

You can employ someone to drive the car for you, make money for you but you cannot have someone to bear the sickness for you.

Material things lost can be found. But there is one thing that can never be found when it is lost – "Life".

When a person goes into the operating room, he will realize that there is one book that he has yet to finish reading – "Book of Healthy Life".

Whichever stage in life we are at right now, with time, we will face the day when the curtain comes down.

Treasure Love for your family, love for your spouse, love for your friends...

Treat yourself well. Cherish others.
