who's ur Hanuman


When Valmiki completed his Ramayana, Narada wasn't impressed. "It is good, but Hanuman's is better", he said.

"Hanuman has written the Ramayana too?" Valmiki didn't like this at all, and wondered whose Ramayana was better.

After reading it, and finding it to be perfect, Valmiki couldn't help himself. He started to cry.
"Why are you crying?"asked Hanuman."Because after reading your Ramayana no one will read my Ramayana",replied Valmiki.

Hearing this Hanuman simply tore up the seven banana leaves stating "Now no one will ever read Hanuman's Ramayana."

Hanuman said, "You need your Ramayana more than I need mine. You wrote your Ramayana so that the world remembers Valmiki, I wrote my Ramayana so that I remember Ram." 👏

At that moment Valmiki realized how he had been consumed by the desire for validation through his work. His Ramayana was a product of ambition, but Hanuman's Ramayana was a product of pure devotion & affection. 🙏

There are people like Hanuman who don't want to be famous. They just do their jobs and fulfill their purpose.

There are many unsung " *Hanumans* " too...in your life...your #spouse, #mother, #father, #friends....

let's thank them and be grateful...for they made your life better..🙂

Here’s to the wild ones. Here’s to you...

Here’s to the fallen, the broken and the shattered.  To the warriors who know that to be cracked is to let the light in deeper.  Who know that the best fruit is on the very tip of the branch and the brightest jewels are hidden within the roughest of surfaces. Here’s to the ones intoxicated by the burning of the winds of change in their lungs and who live in the lands that others fear to tread. Here’s to the ones who raise their voices to the heavens even though they don’t always know the words. Here’s to the rare beings who walk the road less travelled, taking the adventure that rises on this path with purpose and passion. Here’s to the rebels, the heartsick originals, and the bittersweet loneliness that fuels their spirit.  To the ones who won’t conform, back down or step aside.  To the ones who were not born to fit in but to gloriously stand out.  To those who are here to be midwives of the genuine. Here’s to the awakened ones whose purpose is to f...

Harnessing the Power f words...

Have u ever noticed that during those times you were convinced something would go wrong, it usually did? “I’m going to mess this speech up; they’re not going to like me; I am not good enough.” On the other hand, in those times when you were convinced you couldn’t fail, things tended to go smoothly and successfully. “I can’t lose; I just know there is a connection; I have what it takes.” While we all have varying degrees of psychic knowing, these self-fulfilling prophecies have more to do with mindset than intuitive premonitions. ​ Negative self-talk comes in many forms. It may sound factual, “I won’t get the raise,” prudent, “If I try, I’ll fail,” or like a realistic observation, “I am all alone.” Negative self-talk hinders our healing, growth, evolution, and ascension, creating adverse outcomes for ourselves and our lives.   We all have an occasional dark cloud floating across our clear mental skies. However, it can’t rain every day! The more negative thoughts we have, the more ne...
