Life is simple - it is we who

complicate it. How true is this statement? Even if alone, is our simple? Is it that always somebody else is responsible for our peace of mind? Sometimes yes, sometimes no. Our mind is continuously at work an always keeps thinking. But the amount of stress is dependent on what we are thinking. The question is, how to bring more peace of mind into our life, and more importantly, how to experience it in times of difficulties and ordeals. There are some ways to get rid of stress. The following are some of the ways. Keep trying.

1. Create The Life You Always Wanted With This Powerful Visualization.

2. Introspect on a daily basis how you have conducted yourself during the day.

3. Devote at least 10 minutes to yourself every day.

4. Take responsibility. After introspecting be accountable for your own actions (good or bad).

5. Own up. If you have done something which has made

you feel stupid, be strong go ahead and say sorry, be it a person an animal or an inanimate object.(it helps)

6. Cease from committing the error again. Next time when you are about to err, you will be reminded of how you felt before you asked for forgiveness and you will automatically refrain from doing it.

7. Try to be generous whenever

you can afford to give without

asking for anything in return.

It always does come back

tenfold.

8. Try not to do things on a daily

basis which would make you

feel bad - love yourself

instead. This is the main

mantra because it's very

simple - if you love yourself,

then you will try to do

everything right, which will in

turn simplify your life because

you are doing things right.

And since everything is going

right, you have no worry and

no stress. And you have peace

of mind. It's that simple

9. Always remember your

Mother, Father's and God's

love toward you.

10. Don't take everything too

personally. A certain degree of

emotional and mental

detachment is very helpful.

11. Meditation is not everyone's

cup of tea, but if you have the

time, and are willing to try it,

even just a few minutes a day

will make a difference in your

life. You will become more

peaceful, relaxed and happy.

Inner peace eventually, leads to external peace. By creating peace in your inner world, in your mind, you bring it into your external world, and into other people's lives. Peace of mind is a state of mental and emotional calmness, with no worries, fears or stress. In this state, the mind is quiet, and you experience a sense of happiness and freedom.

The other side of the wall Author- Randy Reynolds

There was a young woman who took great pride in the growth and care of the flowers in her flower garden. She had been raised by her grandmother who taught her to love and care for flowers as she herself had done. So, like her grandmother, her flower garden was second to none.

One day while looking through a flower catalogue she often ordered from, a picture of a plant immediately caught her eye. She had never seen blooms on a flower like that before. “I have to have it,” she said to herself, and she immediately ordered it.

When it arrived, she already had a place prepared to plant it. She planted it at the base of a stone wall at the back of her yard. It grew vigorously, with beautiful green leaves all over it, but there were no blooms. Day after day she continued to cultivate it, water it, feed it, and she even talked to it attempting to coax it to bloom. But, it was to no avail.

One morning weeks later, as she stood before the vine, she contemplated how disappointed she was that her plant had not bloomed. She was giving considerable thought to cutting it down and planting something else in its place.

It was at this point that her invalid neighbor, whose lot joined hers, called over to her. “Thank you so much! You can’t imagine how much I have enjoyed the blooms of that vine you planted.” The young woman walked through the gate into her neighbor’s yard, and sure enough, she saw that on the other side of the wall the vine was filled with blooms.

There were indeed the most beautiful blooms she had ever seen. The vine had crept through the crevices and it had not flowered on her side of the fence, it had flowered luxuriantly on the other side.

Just because you cannot see the good result of your labour does not mean that it bore no fruit.

most remarkable Library in India".

The manuscripts of this library represent:

a. The collection of works on art, science and literature of Tamil from

time immemorial.

under the Nayak rulers of Thanjavur between 1535 to 1673 A.D

c. The collection of works brought by the Maratha rulers of Thanjavur.

d The collection of works written by scholars in the country of the

Nayak and Maratha Kings of Thanjavur between 1535 to 1855 A D.

e. The collection made by Maharaja Serfoji from all over India and

f. The later collections from the families of great scholars.

Author- Mahatria Ra

When you don’t give up, you go up.

Nothing wrong turned out to be right in the long run. The very fact that so

many failures have finally turned into success implies that failures are not

wrong. So, don’t be ashamed of your failures. There is no sunrise without

sunset, there is no life without death, there is no success without failures. God’s delays are not God’s denials. Success delays failures and failures

delay success. Failure is a parenthesis inside which success hides and history

makers dig them out through relentless striving. If I haven’t given up, then I haven’t failed. When you

don’t give up, you go up.

There is no Midas touch.

In a world of progress, there is no Midas touch. There is no such

person as ‘he got it right all the time’. Nobody succeeds all the

time. Nobody is destined to remain a failure either. Neither

failure is final nor success is permanent. Today’s success and today’s failures are just another

step in the long journey of life. Life is a game. If you play this game long enough, you will make it. Don’t quit midway. Play to the

end. Play is long enough. Eventually, you will cross the

finishing line.
