Thanks giving.....

Thanks giving  just being celebrated....this idea has always appealed to me.....

Giving Thanks is a very humbling spiritual exercise  and each one needs to  have a day of their choice to be Thankful .well ,ofcourse  there is enough reason to be thankful all the time but if it's a day to chose ..... I would take the day when Lord Krishna gave the Geeta Gyan to Arjuna.
Geeta  is  relevant even today....Geeta literally speaks to you ....any question ,any difficulty ....go to Geeta ,read,  plunge in it and you come back calm ,serene,at peace,happy.
Just take a  dip in the Holy Geeta  and come out light n happy.
Here are some of my favourite  sayings  of The Lord ......
Sarva-dharma parityajya.   mam ekam saranam vraja
aham  tvam sarva-papebhyo.   moksayisyami  ma sucah.

This means....abandon all varieties of religion and just surrender unto Me,I shall deliver you from all sinful reactions .Do not fear.

sreyan sva dharmo vigunah.  Para dharmat sv anusthitat
Sva dharme nidhanam sreyah. Para dharmo bhayavahah.

This means ...it is better to discharge ons's prescribed duties ,even  though faultily,than another's  duties perfectly .destruction in the course of performing one's  own duty is better than engaging in another's duties ,for to follow another's path is dangerous.

To me it means always  do what your heart says , you  cannot be any one else or do things that are not yours.

Lord says ....we are all souls
The soul can never be cut to pieces by any weapon,nor burnt by fire,nor moistened by water, nor dried  by the wind.
I can go on and on ....but each should read and understand  personally.

So on the Geeta Jayanti day ....I call family ....n....friends. ...read the Geeta  together. And share a meal .And this is my Thanks Giving.thank you.
Shalom....Love to all .
Sheela.
