In the article that I was talking about yesterday it was also mentioned that the products’ chemicals make you age faster instead of having the promised anti-ageing effect. And of course this will happen, your skin is not made for putting all kinds of things on it and it will age naturally.
Why do people get attracted by this promise? They think with this they will be more beautiful. Especially woman have this wish to be young, to look beautiful and appreciate the help of cosmetics. But think about it. Should you not rather believe in your own inner beauty? Should you not see that the cosmetics that you are using harm you instead of making you beautiful?
Personally I always find natural beauty much more beautiful than any kind of make-up. And another point is that you don’t need to pretend to be younger than you are. Don’t you see the beauty in so many old people? Your beauty doesn’t come from the outside and doesn’t depend on it if you have a few wrinkles. Be who you are, you are beautiful!

There is a new procedure in plastic surgery now where people can get make-up tattooed onto their face. They think that this is easier than putting on makeup every day. But what a shame! You can never change the make-up or decide not to wear it one day. And with age, the tattooed make-up doesn't look all that good on top of wrinkles. I think this is an impulsive and unfortunate decision to make for your body.

I have not worn makeup in over 8 years now.. special occasions maybe.. but that has been maybe 5 times in all those years.. I am very lucky to have such great genetics that I know I don't look my age,, but I also don't mind growing gracefully every year.. there is so much beauty in the wrinkles of our elders.. it should be honoured.. true.. big loving hugs. wonderful way of putting this Swami Balendu!

Lovely to hear what you are saying, and in America it is so pushed on woman from a very early age, and effects men into being very shallow as well. I wish it were different. I am very fair complected and when I don't wear some kind of 'mineral poweder' or some color, people ask if I am not well, or am I sick. Even at an early age my grandfather... See More would ask my mother ..... is she sick, or does she need to get out in the sun? I don't use a lot of makeup, and when at home alone ...... I don't wear any ..... but, if I go out I do .... Thank you, Swami ...... happy day .... to you.

SourcePeople often say and do things that they don’t believe in. How long can you play such a drama? You have to live in your original consciousness.

SourceIf you are not happy, how can you make someone else happy? You need to have what you want to give. If you want to give love, you must have love.
SourceThe explanation of why healing works is not important. Important is your experience.
SourceIt is the path of devotion and love when you can say to your God ‘Wherever I am, whoever I am, I am yours.’ Then you have surrendered yourself and offered yourself to God. For this you need closeness.
SourceIt is your own decision how you want to spend your life. You can live a true and honest life. Take your decision and have the courage!

SourceDevotees who sleep with their gurus actually got bored from just having normal sex and now enjoy making a new fantasy reality: having sex with a religious wrapper. Devotion to God and the joy of sex – double pleasure!
SourceHuman created God and had the wish for him to be the creator of this world.
SourceReligion is a firm and strict structure whereas spirituality is soft and flowing. Religion presses into clear and edgy shapes whereas spirituality makes round and soft. Religion comes from the mind and spirituality from the heart.
SourceKarma is in many ways just a very easy way for irresponsible people to accept bad events and not try to change anything in their behavior or their thinking.
