INTERVIEW OF WARREN BUFFET

There was a one hour interview on CNBC with Warren Buffet, the second richest man who has donated $31 billion to charity.

~~~

Here are some very interesting aspects of his life:

~~

1. He bought his first share at age 11 and he now regrets that he started too late!

~~

2. He bought a small farm at age 14 with savings from delivering newspapers.

~~

3. He still lives in the same small 3-bedroom house in mid-town Omaha , that he bought after he got married 50 years ago. He says that he has everything he needs in that house. His house does not have a wall or a fence.

~~

4. He drives his own car everywhere and does not have a driver or security people around him.

~~

5. He never travels by private jet, although he owns the world's largest private jet company.

~~

6. His company, Berkshire Hathaway, owns 63 companies. He writes only one letter each year to the CEOs of these companies, giving them goals for the year. He never holds meetings or calls them on a regular basis. He has given his CEO's only two rules. Rule number 1: do not lose any of your share holder's money. Rule number 2: Do not forget rule number 1.

~~

7. He does not socialize with the high society crowd. His past time after he gets home is to make himself some pop corn and watch Television.

~~

8. Bill Gates, the world's richest man met him for the first time only 5 years ago. Bill Gates did not think he had anything in common with Warren Buffet. So he had scheduled his meeting only for half hour. But when Gates met him, the meeting lasted for ten hours and Bill Gates became a devotee of Warren Buffet.

~~

9. Warren Buffet does not carry a cell phone, nor has a computer on his desk.

~~

His advice to young people :

~~

"Stay away from credit cards and invest in yourself and Remember :

A. Money doesn't create man but it is the man who created money.

~

B. Live your life as simple as you are.

~~

C. Don't do what others say, just listen to them, but do what makes you feel good.

~~

D. Don't go on brand name; just wear those things in which you feel comfortable.

~~

E. Don't waste your money on unnecessary things; just spend on things that you really need.

~~

F. After all it's your life, then why give others the chance to rule your life."

પુષ્ટિમાર્ગ એટલે...

પુષ્ટિમાર્ગ એટલે...


પુષ્ટિમાર્ગ એટલે કૃપાનો માર્ગ.
કૃપા દ્વારા પ્રભુને પામવાનો માર્ગ.
પુષ્ટિમાર્ગ એ શુધ્ધ પ્રેમલક્ષણા ભક્તિનો માર્ગ છે.
પુષ્ટિમાર્ગ એ આપણા સુખનો માર્ગ નથી પણ ભગવત સુખનો માર્ગ છે.
તત્સુખનો માર્ગ છે.
તત્સુખ એટલે ત્રણેનું સુખ.
શ્રી ઠાકોરજીનું,શ્રી વલ્લભકુળનું અને વૈષ્ણવોનું સુખ.
આ ત્રણેના સુખ માટે આપણાથી બનતું બધું કરી છુંટવું એનું નામ છે પુષ્ટિમાર્ગ.

વૈષ્ણવની વ્યાખ્યા.

વૈષ્ણવની વ્યાખ્યા.


વૈષ્ણવનો પહેલો 'વ' શ્રી વલ્લભનો.
વચ્ચેનો 'ષ્ણ' શ્રી કૃષ્ણનો.
છેલ્લો 'વ' શ્રી વિઠ્ઠલનો.
જેના હ્રદયમાં શ્રી વલ્લભ,શ્રી કૃષ્ણ અને શ્રી વિઠ્ઠલ બિરાજે છે તે વૈષ્ણવ.
'વ' ની ઉપર જે બે માત્રાઓ છે તે સેવા અને સ્મરણ છે.
સેવા અને સ્મરણની છત્રછાયા હોય તો હ્રદયમાં શ્રી વલ્લભ,શ્રી કૃષ્ણ અને શ્રી વિઠ્ઠલનો વાસ હંમેશા રહે છે.

વૈષ્ણવના ચાર કર્તવ્યો.
-ગુણગાન.
-દુ:ખભાવન.
-દિનતા.
-ત્યાગ.

Wedding Rehearsal

During the wedding rehearsal, the groom approached the preacher with an unusual offer.

"Look, I'll give you $100 if you'll change the wedding vows. When you get to me and the part where I'm to promise to "love, honor and cherish" and "forsaking all others, be faithful to her forever," I'd appreciate it if you'd just leave that part out." He passed the minister a $100 bill and walked away satisfied.

It is now the day of the wedding, and the bride and groom have moved to that part of the ceremony where the vows are exchanged. When it comes time for the groom's vows, the preacher looks the young man in the eye and says: "Will you promise to prostrate yourself before her, obey her every command and wish, serve her breakfast in bed every morning of your life and vow eternally before God and your lovely wife that you will not ever even look at another woman, as long as you both shall live?" The groom gulped and looked around, and said in a tiny voice, "Yes."

The groom leaned toward the preacher and whispered: "I thought we had a deal."

The preacher put the $100 bill into his hand and whispered back: "She made me a much better offer

સમય

ઉજાસને ખોબામાં ભરતા મને જોઇને,મુઠ્ઠીભર અંધકાર વેરી ગયો સમય.
રણને તરસથી તરફડતું જોઇને,ઝાંઝવાનાં જળ પીરસી ગયો સમય.
ઝાંકળને પંપાળતા તડકાને જોઇને,આકાશ વાદળીયું કરી ગયો સમય.
તારી ને મારી વચ્ચેની ઇમારતને,પળમાં ધરાશયી કરી ગયો સમય.
જિંદગીને દુ:ખના દરિયામાં ડુબોવીને,સુખનો એક અવસર આપી ગયો સમય.
