Gurudev, many times, someone says something unpleasant to me, but at that time I do not know what to reply back. Later on, I keep on thinking about it again and again for a long time. I think, maybe I should have said this.

~ #Gurudev @SriSriRaviShankar Ji : That is where the knowledge helps.

I know it goes on eating your head for a long time. That is when you should say, ‘Everything is nothing. All this will disappear. All these people are nothing, and they are all going to disappear one day’.

See, the brain keeps giving some opinion here and there, and this tongue which has no bone goes on blabbering. What is the big thing? Those sounds which came from their mouth and reached our ears, need not rattle our mind. See it scientifically.

That’s why both gyana (knowledge) and vigyana (science) are important. From both angles if you see, nothing really matters. Knowing this brings you that inner strength to move on with a smile.
