Three-pronged Strategy for Life

Be strong - take everything else easy - believe in an almighty external force. Life involved you on one side and everything else on the other. Life is an interaction between these two entities. Certainly this is not fair - yes, life is not fair. So, the best approach to surviving this imbalance is to be strong - physically, mentally, doing whatever it takes to be able to handle tough situations. The next best is remove the prejudices and pent-up fears about the other side and taking the other side easy. Action = reaction, so take it easy and act less. The other side will automatically weaken their force on you. The third aspect is to have faith in an external force and believe that this almighty force will take care of you. Faith works wonders, beyond all rationale. Observe carefully and almost all of the successful approaches in this world fall into one of these 3 categories. Vishnu Pendyala

Thoughts and Senses are our Most Valued Tools

Knowing how and when to withdraw thoughts and senses from this material world is more important than engaging them, just like an army general handles his troops. Mahabharata teaches us what happened to Abhimanyu because he did not have this important skill and could not withdraw from the padmavyuham, when he had to. Vishnu Pendyala
