New Year Ode

Thanks to those who hated me, they made me a stronger person.

Thanks to those who loved me, they made my heart bigger.

Thanks to those who were worried about me, they let me know that they
actually cared.

Thanks to those who left me, they made me realize that nothing lasts
forever.

Thanks to those who entered my life, they made me who I'm today.

Just want to THANK YOU for being there in my life whatever I might have
meant to you.

I want to be The 1st to wish you...
Happy Prosperous New Year

A small list of resources for those interested in understanding Hindu philosophy

Online resources:

http://www.himalayanacademy.com/resources/books/ - There are many online books published by Himalayan Academy that will be enriching to your study. Dancing with Siva is a good place to start to get an overview of Hindu philosophy in general.

http://www.hinduseaerchengine.com - This is a search engine that I have created if you want access to targeted information, if you want other good sources of information on the many aspects of Hinduism from sites that I have handpicked for relevance and quality of information.

Books on Amazon.com that I recommend:

Idiots Guide to Hinduism: One of the easiest book to help with understanding the complexities of Hinduism that many beginners to Hinduism face.

Essentials of Hinduism: More technical or academic in its approach if this is what you are looking for.

What is Hinduism: Taken from thematic research done on Hindu Subjects from "Festivals" to "Salvation", a wealth of a resource in Hindu philosophy and culture as it is practiced today.

An Ode From A Friend

ODE TO LIFE:

The little wave grew,
And thought it knew,
What a great thing it would be.
Being washed ashore it thought,
"I am no more",
But gained all the Love of the sea.
