Making good use of the living example of the full life of a tree, the author has attempted to establish that our family is a total and complete entity and just like a tree, it does follow a natural process and the way of life.To understand it,we will have to look at it from the beginning to the end.

The tree is an organised expansion of a seed, which has arrived from a tree of its own clan. This seed has come along with its various specific properties such as : good and bad qualities ; deeds and undeeds ; state of its existence and organisation ; beauty and ugliness, etc.  After getting sown inside the land, if the seed does sprout and develop, it will acquire the shape and size , very much  similar to that of its ancestors . Of course, it is also true that the seed which sprouts somewhere on Himalayan lands will be fine, but the one that sprouts on desert lands, will not be able to achieve any thing and proceed further.The Babool plant can never produce the flowers similar to those from a rose plant. Even after putting the sugar cane juice in the roots of the bitter gourd plant, it will never be able to forget and leave its inherent bitterness quality.

There is one more important aspect, which we have to specially note and remember that the entire tree and its various  constituents do possess the continued interdependence and exihibt it. The root does Jon the tree to the land and contributes towards its food and water supply. If the tree is cut off from its trunk present over and above the land, the roots will  slowly rot lying  inside the land for long. The trunk always stands supporting all other constituents and serves as the channel for food of the entire tree.. The branches and the leaves are present there to actively support the flowers and fruits and  also transmit into them the juice of life. The leaves make food for every one of the constituents and in the end , the tree gets blessed with fruits . The fruit contains the seeds of its own clan for the birth of the new generation to schieve further progress of the family.In the end, the seed inside the fruit, hiding within it the less than molecule thin next generation tree, sprouts out..All the constituents  do play their respective roles quite efficiently and independently. 

One should visualise and see the entire process vividly described above,  joining and appreciating it with the close resemblance of the tree and the family. The family will be able to convert itself into a worship yagna , if every one performs  his designated duties regularly with sincerity and dedication ,keeping his appointed position in the family.  Whosoever give the needed support to the family life, are our real members and friends . The  very existence of this family tree rests on the desired fruit of the serious , continued and total attempts of regularly carrying out the designated deeds by all the constituents/family members., 

One should be always ready to  generously contribute our due share towards the common benefit and the expected future of the big family.

The author has made various attempts to search for the avenues of  his own pleasure and happiness and feels that he is happy.As he finds out that one can always come across the happiness and anywhere, we must continue its search actively forever during our life times.

I have developed some special habits. One day, I went through a hap-hazard hilly pathway , just as a shepherd making his familiar voices, hurr hurr. As I derived some pleasure in it, I started making the repeatitions every day.I could slowly see that by passing through the same place again and again,a narrow foot lane has become ready exclusively for me. This only has become my Rajpath. It is because while walking on this path, I could see myself very well,without giving any attention towards all others.Also, I could easily visualise ,various plants and trees that have grown near by ;different birds chirping and singing and also the special noises of titheries on the banks of various small ponds. This all provided me lots of solace in my heart and mind. This is why ,since then,I do like and prefer small narrow foot lanes in comparison to various Rajpaths. 

I want to give a large amount of my to the selected few of my close friends, instead of giving its small amounts to the each one from many of them. I do not wish to search for for the love within somebody, but would like to get fully engrossed in love with him, and in the process, become one with himself.

In my life,there have been occasions of my listening to a few such great sayings which were quite short, but have affected the whole of my life amply and have left a permanent mark on it.

After getting seriously hurt by some stone in my way,I would like to face and blame myself for my carelessness, instead of getting angry on the stone.As a matter of fact,I wish to salute the goodness of the stone for remaining quite, even after getting hurt by my pushing it around.It does teach me a good and welcome lesson for being careful while walking on the road.Whenever, I remember such an event later, I do get excited and once again be grateful to the stone.

Keenly observing my writing pen in action,I feel happy, that by its spilled ink, it is able to efficiently write-up and fully express my sayings, emotions and thoughts on the paper’s chest. The pen is unique in the sense that , keeping myself apart, it is writing anything and every thing and is doing so continuously.It’s edge is sharper than that of a sword.It can easily melt the frozenness  of the relationship between the lover and the beloved and also can make the crying persons of laugh.My this celebrated pen has been serving as a nice bridge between you and me, and for this, I feel extremely grateful to it.

Happy moments may come to you and meet you here  ,there and every where.Do keep searching them all the time
[16/11, 10:59 pm] P K Mathur: Remove “and “ between happiness and anywhere ;  Add “ time “ between my and to ;Remove an extra “for” ;Put “ quiet “ in place of quite ; Remove “of” before laugh.

The author invokes us all to pause a little and listen to our inner voice with some concentration . To substantiate it indirectly, he quotes an Urdu couplet which says,”Although there are so many avenues for living an easy life, we ourselves make it more difficult by our controversial deeds.”

There is a water insect , called “jonk”.It is a kind of the parasite who thrives on sucking of blood by sticking very hard on the skin of the animals. It is well known that although all the pathways on the land , viz ,Rajpaths ;ways for driving bullock carts ; narrow lanes, etc , are mostly not straight but do have bumps and bends, the water pathways are always smooth and straight.The “ jonk” does not move straight even in this water. Manthra, a character   In Ramayan , is exactly like that There is no other character like heron Ram Charit manas.She was just a maid in the palace , but her evil character had toys
[19/11, 6:05 pm] P K Mathur: totally rattled the bearings of the powerful empire. By her evil counseland actions, she could collect lots of ugly material , conducive for the break-up of the various well nit units of the  extemely ideal family. However, there is one another aspect of this entire episode. Highly knowledgeable Maharani Kaikeyi did believe Manthra’s sayings fully without questioning her. Although, Maharani Kaikayi’s character has been described to betotally full of several wonderful traits such as motherly love and affection, sacrifice, diplomacy, religious policy and wisdom etc , despite that, she became part and parcel  of Manthra’sevil illusion and simply behaved like her pawn.
[19/11, 6:33 pm] P K Mathur: If our innerself(“man”) and wisdom are not in the same phase, then the above episode is possible to happen.Our difficult innerself(“man”) always goes along with the boundary less world of our imaginations ; possibilities and emotions . Just like the charioted controls the horses with the help of the belt , the same way, our wisdom does provide strength and direction to the innerself(“ man”) through the medium of arguments ; analysis ; deduction and selection. In the popular daily spoken language, this is termed as the use of the wisdom and knowledge in our routine activities .
[19/11, 6:54 pm] P K Mathur: Both the good and evil  souls reside inside our this human body. All the evils are the blast ammunitions but they get the outside fire only through the “ surries”(informers). It is often said that every fire cracker  has a “surry”(infomer) within  and the fire reaches the explosive inside the cracker only through it. Then only , the cracker explodes
[19/11, 7:27 pm] P K Mathur: Remove the extra word’toys’ ;  Seperate the words‘ counsel’ ‘and’ ;  
Seperate ‘ Manthra’s ‘ and ‘ evil’ ;boundaryless  ; charioter

In the present write-up, the author talks about the face change over amongst the inner and outer worlds and tries to establish that our outer world has the inherent capacity of totally changing our inner world.

Some children were playing in the ground of the vacant agricultural fields in a village with lots of natural pleasure and fun and also without any worries.A bullock cart full with various drama players from a nearby village  drama unit passed through that place , dropping some baggage
from the cart on the way. After the cart went away, the children saw that the dropped baggage contained a head gear( Mukut) , a gada a few swords and some bows and arrows. After the receipt of these dropped baggage items by chance, the children distributed  them amongst themselves as per their individual choices. Since then, there was a total change over in the  children’s games. One child wore the head gear and very quickly got converted into  a king from a simple village child. The children , who were having the rubber and cloth balls in their hands , discarded  them and  now carried  arrows. Swords  and gada in their hands. Till now, they were feeling happy and getting excited by the toys  with which
they used to play. Now , the total change was noticed as per the particular baggage that was lifted by a particular child
 The various ammunition items mentioned above as per their individual identity, properties and deeds could establish their effective control over the children. Quickly within moments,  children’s nature changed completely. 


gear( “ mukut
[21/11, 2:59 pm] P K Mathur: Our outer world can simply change our inner world .It can change our nature, way of life and even the personality In the beginning, the outer environment changes the inner one, then our innerself starts liking  all over us ,  that environment only.We have often heard a story about a group of jackals lifting a  human child from a village and rearing him up with them in the forest.When the child grew up, he had a word of two letters’hu     hu’ in the vocabulary of his spoken language. He used to walk with  all his four hands and legs like the jackals.It means that the outer world went inside and the inner one changed itself accordingly and became very similar to the outer world.

It is a saying that with whomsoever the iron is kept , it does adopt to the work similar to that of the individual
“ Ek Loha Pooja main rakhat ek ghar badhik Paro”


Put”s” in place of “S” in sword ;    Put full stop afterparticular child ;  Remove extra gear(“ mukut ; Put hu  hu nearer to ach other ; Shorten the space between the 2nd and 3rd paragraphs

The author has discussed at length different kinds and various aspects of love and points out that can always be there only in its totality and purity. 
Can we call one day love as the real love? If we do so, then the love will disappear with the passing of the day.If love is God, then what will happen to God when the association of the love ceases.  No, it is not the love at all.Do we really require for the love, some religious books, proper opportune moment or some other things? If questions like this come up , it is  sure that we are committing a mistake and are at a  wrong path.If you are in love then there is no less or more in it . Also,there can not be a lazor of the amount of love.If you are in love then really you are so. In case , you love some person, you do so while accepting him and agreeing with him in totality and not in part .You can not love somebody just because he has some specific desirable qualities.Ifyou accept him and agree wih him only partially, you will have to call this relationship not the love but something else.
[03/11, 5:47 pm] P K Mathur: If you love then do so like the complete milk- water mixing ; like that ofthe fish with water; llke the lotus with water and like the good fragrance staying along with the bed of flowers. These meetings are t real intimate mix-up of mutual closeness of various articles of different kind. One can not blame the lover/beloved for his/her own wishes and even the wants. Love can be called as the other name of the very natural oneness. Therefore, if you love,then do love only. Love does not require any debate but only needs the eticate. Love has only one way of that of entry and not of the exit. If it does exit, then surely it is not love and one has to asssign to it some other name of convenience. Love is not at all the excitement, anger,intoxication , blind faith etc. If you the sign of any one of these attributes , then it is not love Love is neither the bondage nor the freedom as it does not have both the perimeter and the boundary.  Asthenosphere love has den directly connected with the pleasure and joy it the soul. the lover and the beloved get the soul experience and directly reach to remain in the state of oneness.There is no place of the “Other” in this state.
[03/11, 6:34 pm] P K Mathur: Most of the people do spend all their lives defining the love .However, there are some who do such a love that they can give the  introduction  by speaking only its name .If you fall in such love with some body, then he will reach the state of soul experience and you will be able to get the knowledge about the real love.  Sweetness of the cane gud can be assessed not by reading books but only by doing a taste of it.Have you not already done it?  If I have not plucked a flower from its branch to fulfill
  my wrong  desires and bad habits, then I can safely say that I love the flower because I love  it’s glory,fragrance, very presence there and also the life itself

Finally, we arrive at the important conclusion that if you love , do it with purity, sincerity and totality.
[03/11, 7:06 pm] P K Mathur: are real intimate ;  If you see the sign of ;  not love . Love ;
As the love has been directly ;   life itself.

The author discusses various aspects of the power within our innerself(“ man”) and the inherent self determination and promise.

An artist, a poet and an author are always alone during the active period of their creation But this loneliness  does provide them the welcome opportunity of  becoming one with their imaginations of the incidents, countries, time periods and the specific circumstances. 

We always see only a cutter,and a hammer in the hands of an idolist. We can view only his hard labour and toil through his chaotic hits over the stone along with its up and down movements. However , we are unable to see and visualise his emotions by which , he is able to go into the heart of the stone, search out and bring out the desired shape. It is not possible for us to reach and see his searching innerself( “ man”). When a poet or an author lifts his pen and writes, we can note only the paper used, the pen and also his thoughtful images but are not able to see his rising and falling emotions that are prevailent in his heart.A potter lifts a lump of the well prepared wet soil,keeps it on the potter wheel and turns it. His hands receive some unseen special messages and the wet soil lump starts taking some shape . This message starts taking the shape of the mirror image of the thought existing in the potter’s inner heart and mind.It could be a drinking water pot,Cholan, an accessory for tobbaco smoking or a garden plant holder.

This is a facttht man’s innerself(“ man”) does go away very far distances and that too without carrying the eyes with it .  Even in this situation. It is able to view the entire scene.  The acquired Vedic knowledge  does tell us that the innerself(“ man”) which goes very far away from the person who is awake, the same ever moving innerslf(“ man”) comes very near and gets totally lost in the person who is fast asleep . The knowledge further invokes that my innerself(“ man”) which is able to go away very far and which is the well lighted source giving the desired energy to various critical parts( indriyas) of the body must be of the beneficial determination and promise for the people at large 

It is very clear that prior to drawing of the Aireal view picture of the Himalayas on the canvas , the innersefr(“man”) of the painter goes in the imaginations with determination and then only he is able to paint the image on the canvas. An idolist,  prior to making the flowers and leaves, does send his innerself(“ man”) to the place where the designated flowers and leaves exist, to search for a proper shape, and based on that information is able to find out their duplicates inside the stone. The author or the poet  tries to enter the body of  the other persons who are the subjects. If he is planning to write  as a male actor , depicting the glory of the female actress , then through the help of his innerself(“ man”), he tries to establish his contacts with and also between that particular country, the time period and the specific circumstances. After achieving all this, he is able to create such a word image(article or a poem) that it’s reader is not able to distinguish whether somebody is explaining to him the entire scene or he is viewing it himself. 

This innersef(“ man”) is of immense power and capability. One can easily visualise that whatever we are today, are only as per its wishes . Whoever has  given a specific direction to the innerself( “ man”)and made some determinations and promises, his workmanship and personality will surely move in that direction and the path. 

It is therefore, essential that we should generously provide to our powerful innerself(“ man”) lots of our good and welcome determinations and promises.
[05/11, 8:43 pm] P K Mathur: chilam  ; is a fact that
[09/11, 11:45 am] P K Mathur: Lahar    Lahar 27The author discusses about the intense pain, one experiences when a sharp and thin thorn pierces the innerself(“ man”), and gets stuck there for prolonged periods. He does suggest some probable solutions to reduce the pain to a great extent.

You may be able to remove the pierced thorns from your feet but if their sharp ends do break and remain there, they get converted into nails and become a part and parcel of the body Now, they do not only remain fellow travellers but do become the enduring  companions . In the beginning, it could be possible to remove the sharp thin thorn by using a fully grown-up thick thorn itself
but if you have to do it now, it would be possible only through a surgical operation. 

One should realise that we do not have the laid out national high ways or the glass roads as in Paris. Do not think that there will only be the moments of happiness and you will ah
[09/11, 11:53 am] P K Mathur: always be protected against the sadness .Day and night ; light and darkness ; high spirits  of pleasure and the low one of grief always go together.
[09/11, 12:48 pm] P K Mathur: Life is a travel arrangement which is the continuous movement from the first breathe to the last one.Life is not feasible  without this movement.In the pathway here , we do have some flowers but  more of thorns. Man is after all a man only. The travel is the life, thorns are the grief and around it there are so many  relationships. Some of these are gentle and nice while some others are evil and always
 busy in sprinkling of the thorns in the pathway of life.The great Hindi poet Godwamy Tulsidasni has paid has given his pranams to both these types of relationships, in the beginning itself while writing the Ramayana , the story of the Lord Rama .
[09/11, 5:01 pm] P K Mathur: Some thorns do come out after piercing the feet, but the broken thin pieces often enter into the body and remain there for prolonged periods. While lying in , they do become the nails. When , while walking, one experiences ups and downs in a bumping road, these nails lying inside the feet start giving lots of pain . In the same way , during the difficult periods in one’s life, the pains  from within do grow up and become visible in a big way.

However , one specific situation is still more amazing.  One can easily understand and live with the pain, one experiences after the thorn piercing but when there has been no thorn piercing at all. then living the life in the fear of shadow possibility, is actually the pain because of the  
big debt hanging on you.   The pain which has  never arrived yet, then taking it’s probability to deep inside your innerself (“ man”) is a big injustice to oneself and that nobody else can be held responsible for it .  

The real moral of the entire discussion in the present write
[09/11, 5:17 pm] P K Mathur: - up is that under all circumstances, we should clearly understand and appreciate  about the presence of several difficulties and griefs in the world.Also , we should try our best to see that these do not transform themselves into the permanent nails in our body.
[09/11, 5:48 pm] P K Mathur: remove “ah “ from wil ah ;so many “ worldly” relationships  ;
 Goswami Tulsidas ;  has given his pranams.

In the present write- up, the author describes the continuous movement through various examples of daily life and invokesus all to improve our lives and make them perfect by carrying out our work constantly and with sincerity and dedication.He calls these inputs of the concentrated, constantly carried out and continuously progressing work in the Jeevan yagna as karm, dharm and perpetual action.

That big potter , the God Almighty is movingHis potter wheel .We call it the movement but in reality, it is circular rotation of the wheel.It is rotating for ever and will continue to do so perpetually .  When we go for the regular morning walk , we do not do relax walk but do roam around there itself However , in both these activities, viz, our morning walk and the movement of the potter wheel, one thing oh
[11/11, 5:05 pm] P K Mathur: is surely common, which is that  we both  do come back to the same place from where we started.
[11/11, 5:54 pm] P K Mathur: Riding on the potter wheel of life, I, you and we all are rotating around or so to say are moving..Entire  Nature is moving, man is moving and also the animals, birds and insects are moving. The tree has come out from the sprouting of seeds and is constantly growing up. The river has come from its source of origin and is continuously flowing towards the sea for finally merging in it. Today , in the morning ,the day has taken its birth from the night’s uterus and is moving towards its ending.We all have been riding on the wheel of the greatest potter, the Lord Almighty and are moving continuously. Moving with hunger and thirst ; with the sleep and awakening;  with the baggage of our deeds and religious faiths , and in some cases even with the luggage of of the entire life on their heads. Starting from our homes and after moving, coming back to the home again.
[11/11, 6:30 pm] P K Mathur: Then listen". It is very true that we have to move continuously, who  so ever is the person making us move The movement is a process. You should consider yourself as a lump of the wet soil on the potter’s wheel . Try to understand well that you will have to decay and shape yourself up as per the wisdom  and  the signs of his fingers..After this , you have to dry up fully by sitting in the bright Sunlight to get rid of the moisture attained by you,like leaving the sloth.
[11/11, 6:38 pm] P K Mathur: Then for keeping your specific shape intact,  you will have to bear the intense heat in a furnace, specially built for this b
[11/11, 7:28 pm] P K Mathur: purpose. If you are unable to go through all this procedure, the potter will through  you back  in the same soil so as to repeat the entire procedure again..  Uou will not get the specific shape and name of the water pitcher( Ghana) ; the vessel for carrying the intoxicating wine/liquor( Surahi) and the earthen lamp ( Diya).  If he is able to make you in the proper shape, he desires , the same potter will make you much more beautiful by drawing various  colourful paintings on your body by his ,  loving and affectionate hands.Although you may not be able to see yourself the entire process, the entire world will see you with lots of choice and love and will put you on their heads.
[11/11, 8:35 pm] P K Mathur: The entire process of starting from the wet soil lump and coming into the specific shape of today can be assigned the exalted name of the tradition and culture.  Without this, one can never get the desired nice shape.You can not have” havans without the inputs of havan samagri. The havan samagri is human workmanship, putting the samagri inputs are the human deeds and doing it continuously is the religious faith.Continuous movement is the process of perpetual action..
Then are we really ready for laughingly going through this entire process of perpetual action with lots of pleasure and inner joy in our hearts.
[12/11, 8:58 am] P K Mathur: Remove”oh”;  do “real “ walk ;  Remove one extra”of”from of of the ;Remove the extra”b”from this b ; “throw “ in place of through.;  “You in place of Uou  (“Ghada”)in place of(Ghana) ; Remove  “ from have” ; Put , after Then.
