What is adjustment? Adjustment means living with a normal mind in an unwanted situation. Adjustment is a way of life. Apparently, adjustment is a behaviour that you adopt towards someone else, but in fact it is for your own self.

The problem is that according to the creation plan of God, every human being is Mr Different and Ms Different. Also, everyone has freedom of choice. In such a situation, every human being is compelled to live in a world of differences. We cannot change this creation plan.

The tree is a physical illustration of spiritual life. The tree is manifested spirituality. The tree has a unique quality. It begins from a small point, and then it grows and grows until it becomes a full-fledged tree. How does this miracle take place? It is due to an inner quality of the tree. The tree is able to take food from everything: from soil, water, air, and from sunlight.

16 November 2013 was a special date for the Indian cricket-star Sachin Tendulkar. After 24 years of his career in cricket, he emerged as a superman of India. In a short speech he credited the success to his late father Ramesh Tendulkar. He disclosed that when he was 11-years-old and started playing cricket, his father gave him an advice in these words: "Chase your dreams, but do not take short cuts." Sachin Tendulkar adopted this advice and it successfully worked for him.
