SCHOOL DAYS AND LOVE

The best days of a man's life is his childhood
The best days of a man's love life is his schooldays(adolescence)

Many things bring a smile to our lips, when u think about them,
But universally the one thing that always makes u blush is ur first love,
The first love, in every one life's is something so special
when u think of school days, especially ur 11th/12th/ junior college, it reminds u of those
giggles, those blushings, those so so so special moments

oh how gr8 was it then if u could jus get a glimpse of ur crush
or u wud have been in cloud 9 if she had asked u a pen or maybe she said an excuse me

School crush is a very sweet and simple and innocent crush
So many small things like lookin at the corner of ur eyes, or even smiling seemed to make us happy
How very special was it, when he actually proposed over the phone,
or when she said yes, smiling shyly at u
wow u wud hav felt like dying right there

At an age so tender, so innocent, simple things made us so happy and so excited
But now, in our twenties and thirties we are so confused and unsatisfied with life
A few years back, such small things made us so happy, a kiss seemed like the biggest
thing that u ever wanted...and now we don’t even care about the peck on our cheek

growing up, facing the world has hit us so hard....
losing innocence,,, and workin so hard has taken the charm out of our life
but atleast sweet memories of those special days still brings us a tinge of happiness॥

SCHOOL LOVE....So Simple...So Special...........

ॐ!

The Meaning of OM
Before the beginning, the Brahman (absolute reality) was one and non-dual. It thought, "I am only one -- may I become many." This caused a vibration which eventually became sound, and this sound was Om. Creation itself was set in motion by the vibration of Om. The closest approach to Brahman is that first sound, Om. Thus, this sacred symbol has become emblematic of Brahman just as images are emblematic of material objects.
The vibration produced by chanting Om in the physical universe corresponds to the original vibration that first arose at the time of creation. The sound of Om is also called Pranava, meaning that it sustains life and runs through Prana or breath. Om also represents the four states of the Supreme Being. The three sounds in Om (AUM) represent the waking, dream and deep sleep states and the silence which surrounds Om represents the "Turiya" state.
Because the first of the three states of consciousness is the waking state, it is represented by the sound "A" pronounced like "A" in accounting. Because the dream state of consciousness lies between the waking and the deep sleep states, it is represented by the letter "U" which lies between the "A" and "M". This "U" is pronounced like the "U" in would. The last state of consciousness is the deep sleep state and is represented by "M" pronounced as in "sum". This closes the pronunciation of Om just as deep sleep is the final stage of the mind at rest. Whenever Om is recited in succession there is an inevitable period of silence between two successive Oms. This silence represents the "fourth state" known as "Turiya" which is the state of perfect bliss when the individual self recognizes his identity with the supreme.


The Symbol ॐ!

Just as the sound of Om represents the four states of Brahman, the symbol Om written in Sanskrit also represents everything. The material world of the waking state is symbolized by the large lower curve. The deep sleep state is represented by the upper left curve. The dream state, lying between the waking state below and the deep sleep state above, emanates from the confluence of the two. The point and semicircle are separate from the rest and rule the whole. The point represents the turiya state of absolute consciousnessThe open semicircle is symbolic of the infinite and the fact that the meaning of the point can not be grasped if one limits oneself to finite thinking.


The Power of Chanting ॐ!

1। The chanting of Om drives away all worldly thoughts and removes distraction and infuses new vigour in the body.

2। When you feel depressed, chant Om fifty times and you will be filled with new vigour and strength. The chanting of Om is a powerful tonic. When you chant Om, you feel you are the pure, all pervading light and consciousness.

3। Those who chant Om will have a powerful, sweet voice. Whenever you take a stroll, you can chant Om. You can also sing Om in a beautiful way. The rythmic pronunciation of Om makes the mind serene and pointed, and infuses the spiritual qualifications which ensure self-realization.

4. Those who do meditation of Om daily will get tremendous power. They will have lustre in their eyes and faces.
