Looking and waiting....

The vedic verses teach that life is built up from 3 phases:
Bramacharya, the teaching phase
Grihasta, the phase of marrying an raising children
Vanaprastha, the phase in which the man, after he has fulfilled his duty as head of the family and serving the society
retreats into solitude to dedicate himself the study of philosophy and the holy scripts and to meditate intensively
(From: Alexandra David-Neel)

Men in the streets of Jaisalmer

 

To deprive a man of his natural liberty and to deny to him the ordinary amenities of life is worse than starving the body, it is starvation of the soul the dweller in the body 

The main purpose of life is to live rightly, think rightly, act rightly. The soul must languish when we give all our thought to the body

 Men can never be a woman's equal in the spirit of selfless service with which Nature has endowed her.

   

Man's nature is not essentially evil. Brute nature has been known to yield to the influece of love. You must never despair of human nature.

 

Unwearied

ceaseless effort is the price that must be paid for turning faith into a rich infallible experience

(Gandhi)
