try to know where one stands



को देशः कानि मित्राणि कः कालः कौ व्ययागमौ।
कश्चाहं का च मे शक्तिः इति चिन्त्यं मुहुर्मुहुः॥
ko deśaḥ kāni mitrāṇi kaḥ kālaḥ kau vyayāgamau|
kaścāhaṁ kā ca me śaktiḥ iti cintyaṁ muhurmuhuḥ||
ko desah kaani mitraani kah kaalah kau vyayaagamau
kah cha aham kaa cha me sakthih iti chinthyam muhurmuhuh


one has to ask himself the following questions very often (not only that, he sould find answers for himself)
in which country or area of earth i live?
( even people living in the remotest corners of this beautiful land are caught by the foreign spirit and sometimes behave as if they are in Manhattan or Buffalo)

who are my friends?
(this is a vital question, the best friend around is likely to be the one who may remove your loincloth and bolt before you wink twice)
is the time appropriate?
(timing sense is a gift, one need not fatten the pocket of an astrologer or soothsayer)

what are my sources of income and expenditure?
( this is for ones own reference, necessarily not to tell the incometax officer)
who in fact am I ?
(most of us do not know either in the physical sense or spiritual context)
What is my strength ( even a puny Guinness pakru may assume that he is Mike Tyson)(intellectually also ..)
