Be Cheerful and Light hearted

“Do not magnify anything in life’, Swamiji says. Whether something good or bad happens, they both constitute life. This assimilation is what is enrichment of the mind. Let everything take its own natural course, and we remain unruffled.

मुनि: प्रसन्नगम्भीरो दुर्विगाह्यो दुरत्यय: ।
muniḥ prasanna-gambhīro durvigāhyo duratyayaḥ
Srimad Bhagavatam 11.8.5

विद्या नाम नरस्य रूपमधिकं प्रच्छन्नगुप्तं धनम्
विद्या भोगकरी यशःसुखकरी विद्या गुरूणां गुरुः।
विद्या बन्धुजनो विदेशगमने विद्या परा देवता
विद्या राजसु पूज्यते न हि धनं विद्या विहीनः पशुः॥
vidyā nāma narasya rūpamadhikaṃ pracchannaguptaṃ dhanam
vidyā bhogakarī yaśaḥsukhakarī vidyā gurūṇāṃ guruḥ।
vidyā bandhujano videśagamane vidyā parā devatā
vidyā rājasu pūjyate na hi dhanaṃ vidyā vihīnaḥ paśuḥ॥
Subhashitam

आयासात् सकलो दुःखी आलस्यं परमं सुखं
āyāsāt sakalo duḥkhī ālasyaṃ paramaṃ sukhaṃ
