King Bhoja asked Mahakavi Kalidasa Upto what age a man can read? (What is the time that a man can read?) For this Kalidasa immediately replied the distance between the two breasts.

All the people in the court were surprised and they wanted the king should punish Kalidasa.

When asked by the King, Kalidasa replied "Yes what I said is correct. You have to read this in  a proper way. What I said is between the two breasts. The first time you will hold the breast when u will be a baby that is of your mother's to drink milk. The second time after your marriage. So you can read between your childhood and marriage. After marriage u will not be able to concentrate on studies because of lot of problems."

Now the king realised the real meaning of Kalidasa's words and how true it is.

What is the best way to enjoy life? asked a man to a yogi. The yogi asked some simple questions to the man. At what time you are waking up from the bed in the morn? The man said at 0600. Then what you will do? The man said Immediately on raising from the bed I will just visualise the jobs that has to be completed for the day at my office, meeting, etc. The yogi asked what will be your next action? The man said while brushing I will think about the way in which I can present in the meetings, customers, telephone answering, etc.Whenever he did a work he was thinking about the next work or future work. Finally the yogi said that is the difference between yourself and a yogi or  a great soul. When u r suppose to take coffee or tea u r not enjoying that moment but u r unnecessarily thinking about the future which is not in your hand. Hence from to day onwards live in the present. If u r taking tea enjoy the tea, If u r reading enjoy the reading. The man was able to understand the secret of enjoying the life.

Friends it is my request to all of u that we are also sailing in the boat like the man. While doing a thing we are thinking about something else. Hence enjoy the present which is in our hand instead of thinking the future.

Lot has to be learnt from life. We must keep our eyes and ears always open. Something will enter into our brain only then. If you close these two nothing will enter. How a cool breeze will enter thro' a closed doors?

The purpose of life is to help others. Once a person who reached hell questioned the God to show both hell and heaven. At first sight he found that both look like. The difference he is able to understand only at the time of need. At hell they never helped others whereas involving in their own sorrows and miseries. But, in heaven they are not bothered about their problems instead they helped others and thereby forgotten to remember even their own problems.

Help always. Give always. Don't think that u can see alone can be given. Love which can't be seen can also be given. The advantage is that it will return to you in mainfold.

1. Human beings have to live in society. But alas! in the same society we are not meeting people, what we daily see is a number of idiots, scoundrels, fanatics, rowdies, treachers, etc. Don't bother about it. The world is full of such human beings too. Only then we will be able to identify the correct friends. Instead of rubbing with this type of people better keep quiet. Stay away from them. Involve in prayer and meditation. After all the world in which Duriyodhana was living there lived Pandavas.
2. They will face their consequences. If you are going to be a saddled horse then you will have benefited much.
3. Ignore them. Time will ignore these people.

To all my ifriends and rediffland members,

Joe 1 : The oil merchant had a kid on yesterday. What is the star of the baby?

Joe 2 : it is "oilyum".

In a small village there lived a person whose main business is to breed cattle. One day the local panchayat has conducted a program in which he got I prize for rearing the best and healthy cows in the village. The media persons were eager to know the reason behind his healthy cows. This man said I am daily feeding high costly nuts to my cows like badam, pista, cashew, etc.

This program was watched by some Income tax officials when telecasted and they were surprised how this man was able to feed the cattle with such costly nuts on daily. His income should be more. Why don't we conduct a check in his house. As planned they went for a check and he has been asked to pay hefty sum as income tax.

In the next year when such program was organised, this man lost the prize and now the reporters they were shocked to see his lean cows which were very hefty one year back. When asked he said I made a mistake since I have given interview for media people I am forced to pay Income tax. So I have decided not to feed my animal from that day. Hence my cows were lean.

On seeing this news the Animal welfare people they lodged a complaint to the police that he is not feeding the animals properly and staged a dharna. This man was again asked to pay some amount as penalty by the police officials.

Next year when the program was conducted this man again got the I prize. With surprise the media persons rounded him he safely answered I am neither feeding the animal nor allowing them to starve. What I am doing is daily I use to give Rs.50/- to each animal and asking them to take care of their food.

It is Sunday. Because all the other days are wee(a)k days.

Can any one name the strongest day?
