I am here to get this right, then I get to go home.
A long time ago I thought that love was something that you reserved for some special set of people that you had judged worthy of it.
After a while I got to thinking about what Jesus had said about turning the other cheek and loving our neighbor I put the two together and realized that he had made no exceptions in these statements. It became obvious to me that he intended that we exclude no one from the love that we are supposed to be giving. I started thinking about my idea of love and suddenly realized that I had not been loving anyone at all. I had simply been judging everyone and every thing.
Judging someone worthy of love is not love, it is only judgment. I actually started to cry when I realized this. I saw just how much of my life I had wasted being judgmental, thinking of myself as a Christian, when I was actually doing just the opposite of what Jesus had asked us to do.
I thought about the verse judge not lest ye be judged, and I understood it for the first time.
I realized that I have a lot of catching up to do. So many opportunities were wasted. I now try to apply the love that I have for the world in a universal way like Jesus asks us to do.
If I start to feel afraid and think that I see someone that I should not love because of something I have thought or heard I try to catch my mistake as soon as possible. I tell myself that I have forgot the truth and have fallen for the same old trick that had cost me so many opportunities to be loving in the past. The horror of this realization is often all that is necessary to bring me back to my senses and make me drop the judgmental nonsense I was thinking.
I still have a lot to learn about love, but at least I’m making progress.
Love and blessings
Your brother

We are born with a desire to relate. We can relate only through the world.
As long as nature keeps you here, know that you are needed here. The day one is not needed, even the most holy one is despatched out. The unholy is needed to establish the holy. Without unholiness, holiness loses meaning.
Remember, nature is more intelligent. Nature is whole of existence and you are part of it. Naturally the whole is more intelligent than the part.

You cannot explain the cause of your birth, except by way of karma theory. Remember Adi Sankara's elucidation 'Punarabi maranam; Punarabi jananam; Punarabi janani jadarae shyanam'. You take birth after birth, as you change your clothes, only to work out your karma. Karma is the sum total of the consequences of your past action. As long as the karam is not worked, you need to come back to do the same. A soul gets 'moksha' or liberated, once the stain of karma is washed out.

We have born on this world to cross all bad things and reach the heart/soul of GOD, where we can say to reach 'Heaven' where we can live happily, but to we can reach the Heaven we can cross over all the obstacles made by the GOD on the earth or on this world. Every one has one need, by asking them, or finding in their face sign we can found one's need also. This is my answer please.
