స్నేహం

స్నేహం విశిష్టమైన, విలక్షణమైన భావన. మానవ జీవితంలో సమస్త కాలాల్లో మనిషి మనిషికీ మధ్య ఉండవలసిన అత్యంత అవసరమైన లక్షణం ఈ స్నేహం. నిజమైన మిత్రుల మధ్య కృతజ్ఞత, త్యాగం వంటి మహోత్కృష్ట లక్షణాలు ఎప్పుడూ పరిమళిస్తూనే ఉంటాయి. 'యాదృచ్ఛికంగా అన్నదమ్ములవుతారు. స్నేహబంధాలను మనిషిహృదయం సృష్టించుకుంటుంది' అని ఆంగ్లసూక్తి. స్నేహం హృదయంలో పుట్టేది గనుక సౌహార్దం అన్నారు. మనసా వాచా కర్మణా ఒకరిని ఒకరు అర్థం చేసుకొని జీవితంలోని కష్టనష్టాలను సమానంగా పంచుకోవడాన్ని స్నేహధర్మంగా భావిస్తారు.

తనకు ఉన్నదాన్ని మిత్రునికి ప్రేమతో ఇవ్వాలి. మిత్రుడు స్నేహంతో ఇచ్చినదాన్ని పరిగ్రహించాలి. తన మనసులోని మాటను అతడికి చెప్పాలి. అతడి మనసులో ఉన్న భావాన్ని అడిగి తెలుసుకోవాలి. అతడు ఆహ్వానిస్తే అతని ఇంట్లో భోజనం చేయాలి. తన ఇంట్లో అతనికి భోజనం పెట్టాలి. ఈ ఆరు లక్షణాలూ ఆ ఇద్దరి మధ్య స్నేహబంధాన్ని పెంచి కష్టసుఖాల్లో ఒకరిని ఒకరు ఆదుకునేటట్లు చేస్తాయని ఆర్యోక్తి.

స్నేహం దివ్యమైన ఔషధం వంటిది. మంచి సహవాసం వల్ల బుద్ధి వికసిస్తుంది. మనసులోని మాలిన్యం తొలగిపోతుంది. క్లేశమైన మనస్సు తేలిక పడుతుంది.

స్నేహం అంటే నూనె అని అర్థం. నూనె, ప్రమిద, వత్తిల మధ్య స్నేహంవల్లనే దీపం వెలుగుతుంది. స్నేహం మధురమైన అనుభూతి. పశుపక్ష్యాదుల్లో కూడా ఉండే స్నేహబంధాన్ని పంచతంత్రం కథలు చెబుతున్నాయి.

శ్రీరామ సుగ్రీవుల స్నేహం లోకోత్తరమైనది. కష్టకాలంలో ఉన్నప్పుడు ఇరువురికీ స్నేహం కుదిరింది. హనుమంతుడి సమక్షంలో రెండు కాష్ఠాలు తెచ్చి మండుతున్న అగ్నిలో పేల్చి పూలతో అర్చించి ఉభయులూ ప్రదక్షిణ చేశారు. సుగ్రీవుడు రాముడితో- 'నీవు నాతో స్నేహం చేయదలచుకుంటే... ఇదిగో నా స్నేహహస్తం' చేయి కలిపాడు. ఇరువురూ తమ సమస్త శక్తులను ధారవోసి ఒకరికొకరు సహాయంచేసుకున్నారు.

మహాభారతంలో కర్ణదుర్యోధనులది అపూర్వమైన స్నేహం. కర్ణుని అంగరాజుగా చేసి స్నేహం అన్న మాటకు గొప్ప విలువను ఇచ్చాడు సుయోధనుడు. పాండవులు తన సోదరులని తెలిసినా ప్రలోభాలకు లోనుకాకుండా తుదిదాకా మిత్రుడికోసం పోరాడి ప్రాణాలు త్యజించిన ఆదర్శ స్నేహితుడు కర్ణుడు. కృష్ణ కుచేలురదీ చక్కని స్నేహబంధమే. సాందీపని శిష్యులుగా ఉన్ననాటి మైత్రిని విస్మరించక- సుదాముడు ఏమీ కోరకుండా వెనుదిరిగినా కృష్ణుడు అతనికి సకల ఐశ్వర్యాలు ప్రసాదించాడు.

మంచి మిత్రులు పరస్పరం క్షీర నీర న్యాయంలా ఉంటారని భర్తృహరి సుభాషితం. మన జీవితంలోని అన్ని సంఘటనల్లోనూ తోడుగా ఉంటాడు మంచి స్నేహితుడు. మానవ సంబంధాలు ఆర్థిక సంబంధాలుగా మారిపోతున్న దశలో మంచి స్నేహపు అనుభూతులు వర్షపు చుక్కల్లాంటివి. మట్టికి పరిమళాన్ని, విత్తుకు మొలకెత్తే శక్తిని వానచుక్క ఇవ్వగలిగినట్లు- స్నేహితుడు తన సహచరునికి జీవించే శక్తి ఇస్తాడు!

Ordinary Things makes you Extraordinary

Success is like a train. It has several coaches like hard work, focus, luck, attitude, vision. But leading all those is the engine of confidence..

Mistakes are many apologies are few. Hurts are many, shoulders to lean are few. Friends are many but true ones are few. Always respect one who truly comforts and loves you.

If wealth is lost, nothing is lost; if health is lost, something is lost; if character is lost, everything is lost.

There is no market for your sorrows. No one will buy them, so never advertise your feelings! Just display your attitude


Golden words don’t aim to be a slave in heaven, aim to be the king of hell – Alexander. Your birth may be common, but your death should be a History.

Beautiful line….. We meet to create memories & we depart to preserve them. To meet & depart is the way of life. But to depart and meet is hope of life.

Rights & Duties are like two wings of a bird or like two faces of a coin, so whenever you fight for your rights see that no body fights for you duties. Do your duties to the best possible extent.

Everyone in this world wants to go to Heaven.. But nobody likes to die.

Sound becomes music, movement becomes dance, smile becomes laughter, and mind becomes meditation & life become celebration when we associate with good people.

If fate favours you one day and you are asked what you want to be. Don’t wish to be someone else… Because, because you are always wonderful the way you are.


Anything in life happens for a reason and everything that happens is only for the good. Trust in these words you will start loving everything.

Fact of life: Whom you don’t need today you will need them tomorrow. Whom you reject today will never again accept you tomorrow. So value the relationship.


The more we start liking somebody. The more we fear about losing them. It is common human tendency because we cannot afford to loose a person chosen among millions.

How hard is the logic of human mind? It seeks compromise when we are wrong and it speaks judgment when others are wrong.

Great Quote: Life is about the people who are true to your face and about the people who remain true behind your back.

Life is a mirror which often gets misty with the fog of reality. If we wipe it with our faith, we will see clear reflection of our dreams.

Never entertain any bad feelings or thought about others, it will harm you more than to others.

No one in this world can have a crystal clear heart, because every one’s heart has some scar by their dear ones for love and affection.

End the day with a thankful heart. Let all your worries, sorrows be swept aside. Smile a moment and thank God for this day where he cared for you all the way.

One beautiful heart is better than thousand beautiful faces… One honest wish of sweet heart is stronger than thousand Gods blessings….. to trust or believe someone, analyze and judge a soul with pure heart not with a soul with beautiful face.

Good friends are hard to choose. They are even hard to loose. In time of trouble, don’t say, “FRIEND I HAVE A PROBLEM ” instead say: “ HEY PROBLEM , I have a friend.

Always have a unique character like salt, its presence is not felt, But its absence makes things tasteless”…., your presence may not be felt, but try to make your absence be felt by others.

Life is not what we expect but what we accept. You may expect many things in your life but at last when you turn back and see you would see only the things which are accepted by you.

If you think life is a tragedy, you have to change your quality of being moody or else your life for others will become a comedy.

Nothing is impossible on this world for you, because every achievement or success is been possible by a human being who is very much like you, blessed with some or the other talent. So start finding out what is the hidden talent in you. The crown of Success is waiting for you.

Be positive in your attitudes and thoughts, always positive overcomes the negative. When you have positive thoughts in your mind, you are sure to accomplish those thoughts.

Kindness gives its own punishment. So be kind enough to an extent. Be a thunder if it goes beyond your limit.

Whatever was future for you yesterday, you are facing it as present today, whatever is present today will become past tomorrow so don’t worry for anything. Be cheerful .

If someone criticizes you don’t feel for it. Meanwhile thank them they are taking you in a much better way to succeed.

If you miss an opportunity, do not lose your confidence and get disappointed because you should be alert enough to grab it the next time.

If the senses are controlled by the mind, the mind itself ceases to function.

This is a dynamic world. Except the word “change” everything else changes , so be bold enough to accept the changes.

Give respect and take respect. The only way to gain respect is firstly to give it.

No body can insult or hurt you without your concern. If you feel you are tortured, it is nothing but your nature; your qualities are torturing you.

Be enthusiastic about the success of others as if you would be enthusiastic with your own success. Only than others will be enthusiastic with your success.

We may recover from the slip of the foot, but slip of a tongue leaves a deep imprint.

The whole world is money minded. But do you know how much would you spend to speak affectionate words and make others happy. Not even a single pie.

Forget the past, target the present and beget the future which is colorful.

Though you are ill and become very patient, you must never lose your patience.

Which category do we all belong to? All our answer would be mankind ok think to your self, we are all part of man but how kind are we?

When you criticize others by pointing your index finger beware that the rest three fingers are pointing you.

The greatest punishment to a person is to forgive him before he asks for forgiveness.

Be co-operative. Being co-operative doesn’t mean you are becoming slave.

When you offer your prayers to God for what you wish he will give you not the things you wised but the things you are in need. Because he knows what all you need.

A person who takes time to promise will be the first person to keep up the promise till the end. So be careful when you promise, if you don’t keep up the promise, you may even miss a great relationship.


Be very cautious with your expressions, because every expression of yours will leave an impression about you.

Even a repaired or standstill clock shows the right time twice a day. So never underestimate anybody.

“Every girl will not have attraction in her eyes BUT every boy has his weakness hidden in some girls eyes” That’s Gods’s creativity.

A man who smiles even in great disaster is a man who has completely understood the world with stable mind.


We don’t ask for a company when we come to this world, the same way we don’t ask for a company when we go out of this world. But in between is the magic of the company which the whole universe undergoes.


MERE READING OF THIS MAY NOT GIVE YOU COMPLETE MEANING. ANALYSE ONE BY ONE YOU WILL REALISE HOW TRUE ALL THESE THOUGHTS ARE. THOUGH YOU COME ACROSS OFTEN.

anger is danger

ANGER is DANGER

1. Wonderful saying: A moment of patience in a moment of anger can help you to avoid a thousand moments of sorrows.

2. Hurting someone is as easy as cutting the tree. But making someone happy is like growing a tree. It takes lot of time”.

3. When we are angry we can change our decision but not feelings, the changed decision may give satisfaction at that time but later it hurts our feelings a lot.

4. Don’t ever be angry on any one, because at the end of your day, you will remember not the words of your enemies but the silence of your close ones, it hurts a lot.

5. A single word spoken at the time of anger is more poisonous, which makes us forget the hundred lovable conversations within a minute. Bitter but true.

6. Golden Words: You will not be punished for your anger, you will be punished by your anger, because ANGER is just one letter short of DANGER. So be cool always.

7. Don’t make life’s critical decisions depending on your mood. A mood can be a dangerous state of mind when you are in anger, because it can crush reasons under the weight of feelings.

8. Some people hurt by words and some by actions, but the biggest hurt is someone ignoring you when you value them bigger than anything else.

9. If we fight we may not always win, but if we don’t fight we will surely lose so never compromise in life, but always fight for the best.

10. The worst feeling in life, “somebody has tears in eyes because of you. The best feeling in life is somebody has tears in eyes just for YOU.
