Why Swami Vivekananda asked an Old man to play FootBall!!!

Once an aged gentleman had approached Swami Vivekananda
for his guidance in vedanta and renunciation. Swamiji asked that

person to go and play foot-ball and come back to receive the lessons.

The aged person expressed his inability to do so, because of his old age. 

Then swamiji explained to him that one should learn vedanta, etc., when one is young enough to control the mind, body, senses, etc.,

as it is of no use even if swamiji teaches him at that old age.

the old habits will overtake the mind and it is difficult to control the mind at that age.

"tvayi mayi chaanyatraiko vishnuh
vyartham kupyasi mayyasahishnuh
bhava samachittah sarvatra tvam
vaanchhasyachiraadyaadi vishnutvam..

         bhajare moodamathe!!....."

in you, in me and everywhere there dwells only one, the all-pervading reality,
i.e., vishnu or parabrahma paramaatma. getting impatient and angry with other is
meaningless. giving up all egoistic-feelings of duality completely and maintaining
equal-minded in all circumstances, attain soon the vishnu-status.

Mourning a good friend's death in San Diego US

Keyur Malavia, a good friend, ex-colleague of mine recently died in tragic incident in San Diego US.
He was very bindas guy and was always inspiring in his words. I had seen him working hard in my office as well study hard for GRE. He had huge plans/dreams of making it big in US.
Everythin went fine for him in studies, job , he married his long time girl friend.. we all were very happy to see the pics he had shared in Orkut.

Keyur's Quote "Enjoy life in the ways u like. U r the ruler of urself - no one else."

But i donno, I was shattered when I heard this tragic news. He would never commit suicide though the reports say that and al such crap.
