Art of living and 5 random acts of kindness

I had the privilege and honour of attending "Art of Living" sessions for 4 consecutive days. the sessions were very informative, opening many doors for me even though known to me. There were exercises for the conscious, subconscious and superconscious levels. One of the tasks given to us was to do 5 random acts of Kindness by each one of the participants. This was thought-provoking for me ,since I wanted to continue with it every day. Feeding a dog, crow, helping your wife in household chores(Is it an act of kindness!!), making a small donation, etc. But sustaining this on a day to day basis every day is highly demanding. So I have reduced it to at least 2 acts of kindness per day!! There are a few important powerful messages I received: 1)Opposite values are complementary- day/night, ugly/beautiful, good/bad- one cannot exist without the other. Somebody said Opposites merge in Oneness like Seshnag and Garuda exist in one abode with Bhagwan. Thiruvalluvar said "...
