Thought for the day
“You
cannot run away from weakness;
you
must some time fight it out or perish;
and
if that be so,
why
not now, and where you stand?”

Genius at work,
painting with mouth and feet
The
organization “Associação dos Pintores com a
Boca e os Pés (Asociation of painters with mouth and
feet)” was founded in 1965 by Eric Stegmann, who was born handicapped and became a famous
painter. For the last couple of decades, the association is promoting and
campaigning for those handicapped artists and their families. It is an
international organization and has branches in Brazil, Philippines and other
countries. The foundation encourages the artists by providing better and free
education, support their families, provide painting materials and simple, smart
campaigns. It is fascinating and captivating the sense of greatness, creativity
and independence these artists (the warriors) acquired through their
mindfulness. Their way of life has shown the humanity that the challenges
in life is inevitable and permeable, however it could be battled and succeeded.
Wisdom Message
Life
is a long pilgrimage along the rough and torturous road of this world. But,
with the Name of God on his lips, the pilgrim will know no thirst; with the
Form of God in his heart, he will feel no exhaustion. The company of the holy
will inspire him to travel in hope and faith. The assurance that God is ever
near will lend strength to his limbs. Remember that with every step, you are
nearing God; and God too, takes ten steps
towards you when you take one step towards Him. This journey does not have any
halts; it is one continuous journey, through tears and smiles, through birth
and death. When the road ends, and the Goal is attained, the pilgrim finds that
he has travelled only from himself to himself, that the God he sought was all
the while in him, around him, with him, and beside him! He himself was always
Divine.
