Saranagathi (Surrender) — The Ultimate Guideline in All Religions – By N.S.Venkataraman Source : srilankaguardian Bhagawan Sri Ramana Maharshi guides how the state of mental bliss can be achieved. Everyone, whether man or woman, rich or poor, literate or illiterate, would have wondered at one time or another in their lifetime about where they were born and where they would go after death. Such thoughts inevitably arise, particularly when a loved one passes away. Sri Ramana Maharshi Most people who undergo such thought processes find that they do not readily and convincingly provide them with any clarity.

Thought Processes of Exceptional Thinkers: However, there have been some exceptional individuals who, over the last thousands of years, have persisted in contemplating the origin and end of life.

A.T. Ariyaratne and the Bauddha Jatika Balavegaya (BJB) A.T. Ariyaratne and the Bauddha Jatika Balavegaya (BJB) “I got disillusioned with politics. An idea was born in my mind that a social revolution minus political colouring should be staged. The Sarvodaya Shramadana movement was the outcome of this thinking” A.T. Ariyaratne The passing of A.T. Ariyaratne at the age of 92 years on April 16, 2024 removes from the national scene a colossus that straddled many spheres of local life and singularly gained international recognition for himself and his country to an unimaginable extent. Though small and diminutive in physical size he reached dizzy heights that should inspire the current and future generations to emulate him. A.T. Ariyaratne was an innovative thinker who consistently punched above his weight. Much has been written of him and much will be written of him in the future. Therefore, I will confine myself in ...
SUNDAY CHOICE – GOD WATCHES OVER YOU – by Charles Schokman Psalm 121:5-8 NIV 5 The Lord watches over you—the Lord is your shade at your right hand; 6 the sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night. 7 The Lord will keep you from all harm— he will watch over your life; 8 the Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore. How many times has God protected you that you didn’t even know about? He stopped that car that should have hit you, stopped the person that wanted to harm you, stopped the trouble before it got to you. You never knew anything about it, but His hand of favour, protection, and mercy was watching after you, keeping you from harm’s way. Sure, we can all find reasons to live afraid, worried, uptight. But when you understand Who’s watching after you, Who’s ordering your steps, Who’s fighting your battles, Who’s holding back the darkness, then ...
