Intellect Vs Heart | June 2016 | Akram Express


Dear friends,
Humility adorns knowledge– we have heard this saying right from childhood. But have we understood the meaning in its truest sense?
Well, in order to understand it more clearly, we have to take a look at ourselves. Do we respect our teachers? Do we wholeheartedly accept their teachings? Do we continue to regard them in a positive light when they are annoyed with us, or punish us? We should constantly keep a check on such things.
Should such humility be restricted only for teachers or should we show it to others as well? All these points are beautifully explained in this edition.
So friends, let us read and incorporate humility in those areas of our lives where it is lacking.

Dear Friends,
One evening in 1958, seated on a bench at the bustling Surat station between the crowds and cries of people, Ambalalbhai attained Self Realization. For 48 minutes he could see the entire universe; All the mysteries of the universe such as ‘Who am I, what is the soul, what is it like, what are merit-demerit karmas, how does this world function, what is karma, how does one bind it, how can one be free from karmas, how can one attain liberation, etc… He received answers to all these questions in these 48 minutes. ‘Dada Bhagwan’ manifested inside him. From then on everyone started recognizing Him as Dada Bhagwan. 
 After knowing this about Dadashri one would naturally be curious to know more about the childhood of such a Gnani Purush. What was His goal since childhood? What was so unique about His childhood?
So come, let us take a glimpse of  Dada Bhagwan’s amazing journey of  becoming  super human from an ordinary human being. Let us appreciate His virtues and intend that we too get bestowed with similar virtues. 
You will be happy to know that this month ‘Dada Bhagwan’s 111th birthday will be celebrated in a grand way in Adalaj, where all of you are also invited. Will you come?

Dear friends,
To complain means to moan and grumble. ‘He hit me’, ‘he took my pencil’, ‘mum and dad don’t take me to nice places’ or ‘my teacher is very short-tempered’ and the list goes on….. There is no end to our complaints. Have we ever thought what is it that has made us so unhappy that we keep on complaining?
What causes one to complain? Who is responsible for making us complain? What are the consequences of complaining? How can complaining be stopped? – The solutions to all these questions are revealed in this issue.
Friends, if you wish to live a life without complaints, do read this issue without fail and make a firm decision to become free from at least one complaint every day. This issue will definitely help us achieve that.

Friends,

‘Name te sahu ne game’ (everyone likes people who are humble, modest).  Right from childhood we have been learning this well-known Gujarati proverb.  We may have heard about it from mum at home, teachers at school and also from  grandparents at story time. Sometimes the feeling arises, Are we liked by everyone because we help them and listen to them or are we liked because we are humble? Let us understand in detail from this edition so that we too are liked by everyone.

Friends,

 India is a land which has been the birthplace of many saints and ‘Gnanis’ (enlightened people).  In such a country where religion and spirituality seem to be everywhere, saints and Gnanis take birth in every era of the time cycle; even the current era of Kaliyug , (descending era) is no exception.

 The cultural and ethical values of India have always taken shape through the religion and spirituality that flow from these saints and Gnanis.  Whilst other countries are renowned for making more progress of an outward nature (for example with behaviour and acts of charity) India is a country which excels in making inner progress (in other words, changes in mindset and vision).  The credit for that goes to all these saints and Gnanis.

 In this edition we learn about Sat Purush (saints), Sant Purush (Self-realized beings) and Gnanis (enlightened beings) in detail.  Let us understand the difference between them and establish feelings of admiration in our hearts for them!

Friends,

We have covered the topic of happiness many times before, but did you know that if you get happiness for the wrong reasons it is considered a ‘crime’?

If you didn’t, then let’s read on to find out what it means to be happy for the wrong reasons; why it happens; and what we can do to stop it.

Friends,

Have fun, have fun when it’s vacation time, have fun ..!

 Everyone eagerly looks forward to the month of May, don’t they?

 Well……. Not for the exams but for the time off after the exams!

 There you are then, it is vacation time.  Have fun!

 And along with the vacation we are here too, with a brand new edition for you!

 So friends, enjoy this light reading and the vacation too!

Since childhood we have been taught to speak the truth as it is one of our traditional values.

 But most of the time, in an attempt to speak the truth, we end up in trouble. So we get confused as to whether speaking the truth was the right thing to have done or not.

 Where do we find a solution to this?

 In this issue, Param Pujya Dadashri beautifully explains to us how truth should be spoken. So come friends, let’s read on and absorb the right understanding into our hearts so that we can apply it successfully in our lives.

Friends,

Most of us must have had the experience of eating our favourite food despite having a full tummy and then suffering the consequences afterwards.  We end up watching TV the whole day to the point that our eyes begin to hurt.  Sometimes we do not feel like doing anything so we just sleep.  And if a friend comes to visit then we end up chatting endlessly, neglecting our studies.

What is all this?  Do you know what this is called?

No? Then be sure not to miss this edition.  

Is it actually possible to do anything over or under the limit?  If so, what would be the consequences of this and what effect would it have on our lives?  All of this is beautifully explained in this edition.  We hope that after reading it we too can steer abnormality to normality.

Dear Friends,
When we were kids and when we had a quarrel with our friends, we would distance ourselves and stop talking to them. Today, though we have grown up, we still haven’t outgrown that habit. 
We still end up quarreling over silly matters. Sometimes we may not quarrel literally, but if somebody does not listen to us or is not in agreement with what we say, then we start backbiting that person. We don’t even realize that the other person may be deeply hurt by this behavior. Leave aside feeling hurt, the other person would feel complete separation from us.
Once a person is distanced, mending the gap becomes extremely difficult. That is why Dadaji always advised not to separate yourself from anyone. But, how is that possible?
So come on, in this series, let’s find various keys to achieve this goal and learn how to keep oneness with everyone.

In this issue we give you a new insight into true beauty...inner and outer. Let's learn about this so that we can make the right decision in our lives.

Let's read some interesting things about it in this issue. Let's recognize our complexes and make an effort to go from either complex to normality.

We are truly very lucky that we don't really know what hardship is. So then why is it that we are always dissatisfied about something or the other, as if we are drowning in a tidal wave of misery!

Do we ever wonder why this happens? Are we so heartless that we cannot think about the pain and suffering of others?
If you have ever felt this way, then this edition is especially for you. In this issue Param Pujay Dadashri shows us a very simple and easy way to develop compassion towards all living beings.

What is true happiness? What is it like? What is the experience of real happiness like? You feel happy even by just reading about it. So come, let's enjoy a mare drop from that waterfall of happiness.

So come, with Load Krishna's birthday not far away let's learn some new things about Load Krishna and let's revel Load Krishna devotional worship.

In this month's issue we explore the correlation between adjustment and common sense and how common sense blossoms by adjusting with others. So get ready to learn how to adjust and thus reap the benefits of common sense.  

None of us would like to be disliked, true? For that reason alone let us bid farewell to anger and experience freedom from it, This issue describes how people who get angry and those who don't are perceived, so that we can develop the Courage to get rid of our anger. 

Well it's true. Holiday time is your time. This edition is compiled keeping and mind that your time doesn't get lost in vain. You can have fun but at the same time also obtain the right understanding so that you have a bright future. So please make sure you have a bright future. So please make sure you read this issue holidays... are..fun...

Have we ever noticed that we are hardly ever content with what we have and we are always asking for something  more? 
So in the eyes of a 'Gnani' (Self realized Spiritual master) are we beggars? Let's read this issue to find out.

In this issue, let's understand the influence and characteristics of both, good and bad company and become free from bad company.

'Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet'. We must have heard this saying so many times. We must have also read moral stories on it. And yet we are not able to exercise patience. Wherever you look there is haste, haste and more haste. So instead of things improving they keep getting worse. Surely, Some where along the line there must be some mistake in our understanding.

The famous 19th century philanthropist andrew carnegie said that teamwork is a strength which transforms an ordinary person into an extraordinary person. So come, let's understand these strength through the language of the 'Gnanis' (self-realized beings) and lets us all increase capacity to work as a team.

What type of people can give generously to other, or allow other to use their things? By being generous, do they truly end up with less, or do they ever suffer for the loss of their things ?
