Message for the day 31-10-2012
----------------------------------------------------------
The one who is simple is the one who is free from pain.
Expression: When we are simple we are able to be free from pain or hurt even
in adverse situations. We are able to take benefit from the wealth of experiences
accumulated over the past without feeling the pain. With simplicity we know that
we need to remember the past only to the extent that we have to learn from it.
Experience: When something goes wrong and we find ourselves thinking about
it again and again, we need to remind ourselves that all the past experiences are
only for us to learn from. The past is finished and we don't have to undergo the
sorrow again thinking about the past repeatedly.
