I have been hearing, what will I do if I have all the time and money in the world?
I will definitely do something creative, may be do something good to the world.
1. Join politics this step is not to earn power and money, but to serve people.
2. Start a company ensuring that lot of people get to earn a decent life.
3. go to exotic places in the world, where nature has filled her bounty.

Think about it !!! .. These should be dreamzz and not ambitions.

Am trying to concentrate but that somehow does not seem to happen. There is some disturbance somewhere for which I am not able to concentrate. I need to sit down and complete the task whatever be the situation

Enough of Procrastination

This I have been trying to say for the last 1 year now , enough of Spiritual and material knowledge is sought. Now it is to time to put that into action. I have to use those stuff in day to day events. You cannot delay any more. This is my problem, I keep thinking about big things but I never put them into day to day use. I have been playing this procrastination game for long enough.
This is the perfect time, I am alone. No one is depending on me. I have all the time in my life to practise things. In winter I will be alone. I need to decide a set of goals and must do my best to achieve these goals.

Remember these quote

"To succeed, you must have tremendous perseverance, tremendous will. “I will drink the ocean”, says the persevering soul; “at my will mountains will crumble up”. Have that sort of energy, that sort of will; work hard, and you will reach the goal. "

"Take up an idea, devote yourself to that it, and struggle on it on patience. And the sun will rise for you"

"Whatever thy hands findeth to do, do it with thy might."

Some of the goals can be
1. Reduce weight, do as much exercise as possible coupled with Yoga and Pranayam.
2. Learn JD Edwards Finance and be steadfast at it.
I will put in some more goals ... as and when I find it.

Time for action ..BUT WHAT IS THE ACTION ????

First and most importantly the need has come to keep working incessantly. But now the question is what do i strive to work on ?

What is to be created ? Something which when created wil actually make my efforts worthwhile. "Karma" or real work is something which is not for your own selfish need but caters to the whole society as a whole. What is that great Karma I need to embark upon ??? I need to seriously think about this now.

I do understand that I have to work for my living in my current job as a software developer and have to support my tobe family. If things go allright that is...

But is there anything marvellous work that can be done ?? Within the confines ??? Got to think real hard !!!

One way is to go for entrepreneurship ...every body will think that I am going for a whole hearted materialistic stuff, but actually I will be vying for spiritual interest in that ..

Got to think of other ideas. ... Keep ur brain involved.

Enough of Knowledge Gathering ...TIME FOR ACTION !!!

I am entering the practice of Karma Yoga, I have gotten enough knowledge as of now. Theoretical knowledge is sufficient as of now. Now comes the most difficult job.to practice it and practice it rigourously and religiously to the best of my abilities.

THINGS TO BE DONE (To be Strictly Followed)

1. Keep working ..always incessantly without thinking about the desires.If there is no work keep learning new technological things. You cannot prevent them by giving the excuse that you are
enhancing your Spiritual Knowledge. Think that they are duties towards GOD. These are the sacrifices that you are making to GOD.

2. Try to control all the sense organs need to Fortify yourself. You have to prevent yourself from shar ripus. The ripus are mentioned here just for your convenience.Kama (lust), Krodha (anger), Lobha (covetousness), Moha (delusion), Mada (pride), Matsarya (jealousy)

3. Every work you do ...Every small piece of work as well has to be sacrificed to GOD. And these are all DUTIES. Do all the work with perfect DETACHMENT. I am not the DoER, it is Supreme Power who is making all this happen for me.

4. Attempt to remove the veils off the ATMA. Meditate hard on it and dont think anything else. You will move towards the right line.

5. When in office or in midst of work, talk to your ATMA.The Nirguna Nirakar Brahma is in you and you cannot forget him even in your most busy times. He is the source of all inspirations.

Assimilation of Spiritual Knowledge

I have read loads and loads concepts of self improvement. Be it in the managerial front or in the technical front or in the spiritual front. Now it is high time I assimilate all of them, whatever I have learnt from all of them, It is a good thing to learn things which are important but all these readings become a farse if you do not implement it. So the first thing I have to do from now on is to practice the innumerable good things that I have read.
The most important thing that I have learnt is to live in the present and enjoy whatever is available. Both thinking about past and future are not conducive they either bring in lethargy (Tamasik) or too much passion (Rajasik). Neither of which is actually good. Most important thing is to LIVE IN THE PRESENT, LIVE IN THIS MOMENT. The future generally comes before you can actually think of it. What will you get in future ?? More money?? goodlooking wife ?? Will all the problems vanish then ?? The answer to all these questions is only NO. Never will the problems cease to arise and never will you be free to attain. It is good to think of these as a game, a game we are playing where there are no winners and no losers. We are playing just for fun. We are working because we wanna have fun. This is called "Leela Khela" in bengali. We are playing and the rules are to set by me. This is the way to remove all attachement if it is all fun and games. You can think of this as a picture we are trying to paint. We can paint them as we want.
One more point comes repeating time and again from Gitas is to leave the desire. I have the right to work but I dont have the fruits of it. It is these desires which accumulate and that is the source of all pain. Dont have any expectation, If there is some expectation cropping up, go and surrender it to God. There is nothing more than that. You have to get rid of the desires by hook or crook.
