# 033 Let the new year be graceful

Ring in the new. Ring out the old.

Past is gone. It is there only in our memory. The future is going to unfold and whatever it is going to unfold, let us be ready to receive it.

We want our desires to be fulfilled in the New Year. From our past experience, we know that all our desires do not get fulfilled – some gets fulfilled, some do not. If fulfilled, we are happy. If not, let us not become unhappy. Let us decide to keep equipoise.                           

How to be equipoised? By earning grace.

How to get grace? By prayer, by good deeds and reaching out deeds. Let us just pray. Prayer brings about grace as its result. Let us earn this grace.

Let this year be meaningful and graceful with prayer. May the year give you a lot of grace.
