Thanks for sharing the colorful “gems”of Hinduism. I am naive on this religion; just a little knowledge about it from our lessons in Asian civilization. I admire the way people in your country or those in other countries in observing Hinduism. It looks like they have a deep sense of religiosity when you see them praying in temples, or in their places of worship.

It is a observation which I have observed personally and with others known to me too that when they feel for a long time and get the thought whether something which they want to go right, will it go right? Many times it has gone wrong and horribly wrong. I leaves with a sense of helplessness as that is the only word which I find can be used to describe that. It leaves scars in our mind and will continue to haunt us long after the event has taken place.

Yes it happens. It depends on ones coping mechanism and acceptance levels. One even gets this thought Why does this happen to me? There are only clear questions and more questions but no proper solutions or answers. It is better we leave that thing at that and focus on something worth thinking and can think and get solutions for it with time. But it is a bad situation going through it. It continues for days and months. Thanks for the share.

True. You become what you want to become. If you think some bad experience will come it may occur. That is why it is suggested we should always think positive. Perception is what makes us all. good day.

The word speculation is totally a misgiving. What should we speculate or why should we speculate, when this has got no specific path or direction to follow.
I work throughout the day. I know I will be paid Rs.300 per hour for my work. After the completion of the day, I am sure to get Rs.2,400/- (for eight hrs of my work). How can I speculate on that? Why should I speculate on that?
Speculation leads us towards ruination and makes us greedy which we are not eligible for.
Similarly, there will be some deduction of Rs.800/- per month from my salary. At that rate, there will be an amount of Rs.9,600 in my Govt., account. There is no place for speculation in that.Speculating something which we do not know makes us DAY DREAMING on everything and everybody knows pretty well the value and significance of life spent upon DAY DREAMING.

It’s good to know your child. But you have to realize that your child goes out into the world and interacts with other people. Sometimes the influences are not good or healthy. They learn, develop habits and/or bring back “things” that were not taught in their home. What is more important is that the child knows the parent to be loving, forgiving, trustworthy and dependable. They won’t always be children. But they need to know they can always come to you for good advice.

This is a very good question to parents. Knowing your child is important as this will help you in raising your kids better.

Being “politically correct” is a “convenience”; a rather unsavory form of communication which often does not communicate the truth. It sometimes “masks” the truth. The reasoning or excuse for being “politically correct” or for not speaking plainly is because someone might be “offended”. I’m not saying a person should lack tact or be diplomatic when speaking to others and be abrasive or callous and not care about the person’s feelings, beliefs, etc. But if the end result of what you’re saying is not truthful and will not provide any benefit such as, solving a problem, reaching an understanding, etc., then … you might as well SHUT UP! Cause you just flapping your mouth and ain’t saying nothing!

It is true, money is needed for one to have a decent way of life and to have freedom. If he do not have money, he will be dependent on other people’s help.

This is so true!

No one can live without money. As mentioned in your topic, just the basic necessities in life entails the use of money.

Acquiring food, clothing, and shelter, you need to have money.
