					<description>A Little Prose on grandoise

OM: Actual pronounciation of the 'AUM' is not "OM". 
AUM is an agglomerate of three principal sounds 
Aaaaa, Aoooooo, Maaaaaa a a a a a. And it goes in continuum.

"The rhythm or vibration is what has the ultimate influence of spirituality (or the blessings of spirituality practicing AUM. AUM is a system. AUM is a complete Theme in itself."
The Holy Book 'Katha Upanishad I' also has enforced:
"The goal which all the Vedas declare, which all austerities aim at, and which men desire when they lead the life of continence â€¦ is OM. This syllable OM is indeed Brahman. Whosoever knows this syllable obtains all that he desires. This is the best support; this is the highest support. Whosoever knows this support is adored in the world of Brahma." ~ Katha Upanishad I

					<description>There is an old saying: â€˜Excellence is what excellence doesâ€™. With serious talk on excellence appearing to germinate once again, it perhaps signifies the time has come full circle when tangible impetus will rise to back up the journey to excellence. Infact the serious talk should (have?) shed the verbal structure and hone up an action plan for sure shot excellence. Let us hone up our processes to demonstrate, confirm and standardize the route map for excellence. It mandates that the hierarchical base is strategically widened @ excellence from the first principles.
Joe, Your comment at the posting on subject                                                                                         i.e &lt;a href="http://www.thareja.com/index.php" rel="nofollow"&gt;8 steps to excellence &lt;/a&gt; and about my mention of â€˜not sooo muchâ€™ regarding my posting on Jay Marinoâ€™s a &lt;a href="http://www4.asq.org/blogs/edu/2006/09/do_you_celebrate_success_in_yo.html#comments" rel="nofollow"&gt;comment&lt;/a&gt;  was perhaps misplaced. Say if we all start working for excellence will there be any scope for so much of rejoicing our small successes, or must we consolidate our energies and efforts for much better outputs. The energy certainly is required, and due motivation is always a cause for the same. The bundles of energy donâ€™t always come from lollipops. Neither does excellence. Lollipops though can always be a reason to initiate oneâ€™s focus and serve no further purpose.
Thanks for sharing.
Regards

The GAYATRI MANTRA" the most powerful hymn in the world 

&gt; Dr.Howard Steingeril,,,,, (source appears to be same as above)
&gt; 
&gt; The GAYATRI MANTRA is broadcast daily for 15 minutes from 7 P.M. onwards over Radio Paramaribo, Surinam, South America for the past two years, and in Amsterdam, Holland for the last six months. 
&gt; 
&gt; "Om Bhoor Bhuwah Swah, Tat Savitur Varenyam, Bhargo Devasya Dheemahi, Dhiyo Yo Nah Pra-chodayaat !" Smiling face with smiling eyes
&gt; 
&gt; "It's meaning: 
&gt; 
&gt; God is dear to me like my own breath, He is the dispeller of my pains, and giver of happiness.I meditate on the supremely adorable Light of the Divine Creator, that it may inspire my thought and understanding." 
&gt; 
&gt; The above information is worth circulating and sharing with one and all! How rich and wonderful are our Vedas.
