NOTHING IS YOUR

Everything starts with a Thought !

Most of the thoughts are not yours
but
from your parents,
your teachers,
your friends,
the books,
the movies,
the television,
the newspapers.

Just count how many thoughts are your own, and
you will be surprised that not a single thought is your own.
All are from other sources,
all are borrowed ―
either dumped by others on you, or
foolishly dumped by yourself upon yourself, but nothing is yours.

Sow a thought,
you reap an Action.

Sow an act,
you reap a Habit.

Sow a habit,
you reap a Character.

Sow a character,
you reap a Destiny..!

BY THE WAY
HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY

A Man who has gone out of his town comes back and
finds that his house is on FIRE.

It was one of the most Beautiful Houses in the town, and
the man loved the house the most!
Many were ready to give double price for the house, but he had
never agreed for any price and now
it is just burning before his eyes.

And thousands of people have gathered, but nothing can be done,
the fire has spread so far that even if you try to put it out,
nothing will be saved.
So, he becomes SAD.

His son comes running and whispers something
in his ear:
"Don't be worried. I sold it yesterday and at a very good price ―
three times.The offer was so good
I could not wait for you. Forgive me."

Father said, "thank God! It is not ours now"
Then the father is relaxed and became a silent watcher,
just like 1000s of other watchers.

Please think about it!
Just a moment before he was not a watcher, he was attached.

It is the same house....the same fire.... everything is the same...
but now he is not concerned.
In fact started enjoying it just as everybody else
in the crowd.

Then the second son comes running, and he says to the father,
"What are you doing? You are smiling ― and the house is on fire?"
The father said, "Don't you know, your brother has sold it."

He said, "we have taken only advance amount, not settled fully.
I doubt now that the man is going to purchase it now."

Again, everything changes!!

Tears which had disappeared, have come back to the father's eyes,
his smile is no more there, his heart is beating fast.
The 'watcher' is gone. He is again attached.

And then the third son comes, and he says,
"That man is a man of his word. I have just come from him.
He said, 'It doesn't matter whether the house is burnt or not,
it is mine. And I am going to pay the price that I have settled for.
Neither you knew, nor I knew that the house would catch on fire.'"

Again the joy is back and family became 'watchers'!
The attachment is no more there.

Actually nothing is changing!
just the feeling that
"I am the owner!
I am not the owner of the house!"
makes the whole difference.

This simple methodology of watching the mind,
that you have nothing to do with it..

Dangerous sex Positions For Men

The most common cause of pénile injury is found among the variety of potentially dangerous positions used for séxual intercourse. The most popular is the ‘woman-on-top’. This type of position can result in an impact between the pénis against the female pelvis or perineum that can easily traumatize the pénile cylinders. A pénis becomes érect when the lining of the cylinder within it is engorged with blood.  A pénis fracture can occur when there is trauma to the eréct pénis, resulting in a rupture of the cylinder lining. This very painful injury is often accompanied by an abrupt, distressing cracking noise that is immediately followed by dark bruising of the pénis due to blood escaping the cylinder. In ten to 30% of pénis fractures, the urethra is damaged and blood may be visible at the urinary opening. Given these signs, an injury should be relatively simple to diagnose, right? You would be surprised, even with the unsettling sounds of a fracture occurring, many men...

AWS Battles Rivals: Advertising Campaign

Amazon Web Services has defeated IBM in a competition for lucrative federal contracts, threatened Microsoft's core businesses, and reshaped corporate technology. In the last few months, the pioneering cloud-computing unit of the online retail giant has taken a page from the playbook of some of its more traditional competitors: It started advertising. Ads have been splashed across billboards and in airport terminals, television spots and web videos, featuring a whiteboard full of sketches of software architecture and appeals to invent something using Amazon's collection of rented computing services. The advertising campaign, which bears the "Build On" tagline, represents a milestone in AWS' march from technology upstart to one of the major players in business software, technologists and marketers say. For many years, AWS didn't advertise, partly because it didn't have to. The service held a wide lead over the competition, and word-of-mouth was enough to...

Google Authenticator, a formidable layer of protection to your account.

​Google Authenticator is a free security app that can protect your accounts against password theft. It's easy to set up and can be used in a process called two-factor authentication (2FA) offered on popular social media services like Gmail, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.  The app ( iOS / Android ) generates a random code used to verify your identity when you're logging into various services. The code can technically be sent to your phone via text message every time— but the Google Authenticator app provides an extra level of security.  SMS-based 2FA has a  known security flaw , and any devoted hacker can attempt to  socially engineer  an attack against your phone company. The Google Authenticator app eliminates the possibility of an SMS-based attack  using algorithms  to generate the codes on your phone. Here's how to set it up: 1. Download Google Authenticator from either the Apple App Store or the Android Google Play store. It's free. 2. Nex...
