Wordless Wednesday #114


This is a name of a Restaurant that I visited in December. It was not just an eating place, but had many factors that made my visit divine!
Thus, making this name very dear to me!

As we are still in the first month of this year, I would like us all to be aware, mindful, attentive and alive as the mind churns thoughts.  Since these thoughts make us perform actions.

Let us all travel under the shade of the Bodhi tree that will enlighten our path as we continue to tread upon it in 2016.

Mantra for today: “Do not look for happiness outside yourself. The awakened seek happiness inside.”

How would you pursuit happiness?

Happiness and money are related to most of the population.

If you have the money, you have happiness since; at least the basic necessities are around you.

The only problem is that there is no end to it.

Man is continuously pursuing innovation so that life would become easy and eventually we will be in an era where machines will work for us. Man will be sitting back and watching them work while he continues to deter the planet's resources and fight and complain over basic things.

Recently, Pope was in the news requesting people to use the basic gadgets such as phone, car or clothing as a necessity and not as a pleasure.

What is your take on the above?

Sure, man ought to stay in the race by having the basic necessities but, to run after the latest gadgets is a never ending pursuit.

What makes you happy and content?


Mantra for today: Drawing a line between necessity and pleasure is necessary for the solace of the mind.
