IMPORTANCE OF SLEEP

Dear Sisters & Brothers, Hope we all ready to celebrate CHRISTMAS-2010.
We just touched the subject of the oldest culture on earth recently which I am sure we all read. What is the greatness about India> Please have a look at the forward message and see if we agree. Please do not think, that India is the only country in the world and every country has good and bad about every thing and we need to take only good and leave the not so good for the Time.

We all spend almost half of our life in sleep. I am now 65 years of human life with the body which means about half of that about 33 years of sleep. During the remaining 32 years of wakeful life, it took me about 30 years (15 years really) to support my self and another 25 years (13 years really) to get married, to have children and educate and support them, to get them married and to let them live on their own. So about 28 years of my wakeful life out of 32 years of this body and leaving only about 8 years (really 4 years) to do what I wanted to do as all the time is mine and nobody else's!

I can do what I want, when I want and where I want and how long I want, That is the beauty of the so called retirement which I am in. How long more? Nobody knows! Is it not the real mistry? If it is not mistry, what is it. See how life goes. It does not matter what we did was right or wrong as there is only very thin line in between right and wrong depending upon so many factors like time, the society we live in, and of course our frinds we are associated which can turn our life in any direction.
We should be grateful for our Mother Land, Mother, Father without whom this body of ours does not exist, Guru who gave us education, knowledge etc and of course other humans, plants, animals and all the non-living objects and Pancha Bhutas from where we all came and where this human body goes and joins the same 5 elements. What remains is our real self which is pure consciousness namely 'ATMA' which has no birth or death and it is eternal as PARAMATMA OR BRAHMAN not Brahmin!

We started with sleep in the first place. Let us see what is sleep and why should we spend 50% of our time in this human life. Please click the link below to read and see what we feel
