Our life will be either an example or a
warning to others. So is the life of others; either an example or a warning to
us. Essentially, every human life, yours and mine and that of others, is either
a lesson on how to live (example) or a lesson on how not to (Warning).
It is true that a lot can be learnt from
reading books, but nothing compares to how much we can learn out of studying
people. Every human life is living encyclopedia. A human life and the
associated experiences are a living testimony to the otherwise theoretical
understanding of life.

We can learn that the “Messenger is the
Message” from the life of Christ. We know “Holistic Abundance” is possible from
life of Krishna. We realize “Compassion to every form of life is the way “from
the life of Mahavira. We learn Faith from the life of Prophet. We learn
selfless love from Radha, Bhakti from Meera, Surrender from Hanuman,
Resoluteness from Mahatma Gandhi, Resilience from Lincoln, The power of dreams
from Martin Luther King , Impossible is possible from Steve Jobs, the Power of
ne from Mother Teresa, Humility from Dalai Lama, Altruism from Bill Gates,
Persistence from Edison and so on… every human life is learning opportunity.
The key is to keep the student within us
alive. The key is to be like blotting paper’ ever ready to observe and absorb.
The seeker within you should keep seeking. From anybody, from anything, from
any situation we can learn. For most people learning stops when schooling
stops. Then, they just stagnate and vegetate. If you wish to actualize and
maximize our potential, then learning is a lifelong quest.
Learning can stop when breathing stops; not
even a breath before.
Wishing you most and more
Have a great day
