Illuminate your life with self analysis this Diwali

Illuminate your mind with self analysis this Diwali

Think about what is right. Have positive thoughts and goal oriented actions. Act in the path of your goals. If we act according to the goal of our life that is the right standard of the life.

What do we like?

We like to peep into the lives of others and enjoy it, as the eyes always see the external world. They never try to see under the nose of the self. We always try to hold a mirror for others and Analyse their behavior criticism and jealous. We try to show our greatness by suggesting them about do's and don'ts.

all these things deviate us from the goals of our life. We have got every thing for the sake of the life except our own  life. By looking at others our inner self becomes  empty. The emptiness makes us puzzled and confused. Such a person can neither give anything to anyone nor can help himself. To fill in this emptiness of ours we start expecting respect and honors from others and chase it blindly which leads the darker side of the life.

Instead of showing the mirror to others, if we turn it towards us than the darkness would turn into light and respect and honors would in our way on its own. 

Lets light the wick of our own self this Diwali and shine with beauty and joy to illuminate the world. 

Don’t feed your child’s mind with junk thoughts

Maggie has been banned In India as it contains lead more than it is required. Other food items too have lead content but at the required quantity.

There are standard units of licensing the food items to have a physically healthy population, but what about the mental fitness or health?

We are so much conscious about the physical health, don’t we ignore the development of the healthy mind. There is a saying ‘A healthy mind resides in a healthy body’, but I don’t find it right when I look around the world there are many physically fit (extra conscious about the physical fitness and are extra fit too) people carry the most polluted/unhealthy minds. What may be the reason behind it?

The reason lies in the roots of the developmental stages of a child, where parents lay stress only on the physical development of the child. Parents are well aware of the healthy food; eating habits etc. they keep on feeding their children to keep them fit and healthy.

Development of the child’s mind is totally neglected. Parents leave it to the mercy of the child whatever comes in his way he keeps on taking it in and in.  It develops on its own with the time passes. The child copies the same what he gets from his family. The family members do not have patience to be the role model for the child. They cook their behavior just like two minutes Maggie noodles in two seconds and serve it in the child’s plate without any do’s or don’ts.

Child’s tender brain picks up the nutrients for the development of his cognitive, language, social or emotional skills everything on his own. The brain has a tendency to set the patterns of what ever goes in. If it goes in repeatedly the patterns become firm and that reflects in his behavior.

Initially parents feel happy for every action of the child that encourages the child to do the similar action over and over again whether it is right or wrong. He does it to make others happy and gets reinforced by their gestures. Initially parents enjoy considering him a child; they believe that he’ll improve as he grows.

Gradually as the child grows the normal behavior is not considered and appreciated but the nasty behavior is criticized by everyone. That criticism too becomes the reinforcement for the child as he is getting attention and it strengthens the patterns in the brain to react to the situation in his own acquired way. When the child applies the same behavior in all the situations he is labeled with many negative tags. Those tags hurt to the parents even and bring frustration in the child who decreases the efficiency of the child and leads to a low self esteem and escaping behavior or vice verse, the child becomes outrageous.

The ignorance of the food for the mind results negatively. Feed the body with edible nutrients and mind with audible nutrients, good thoughts.

Feed the body and mind of your child with utmost care. No Junk food for the body or mind is permissible, Say no to two minutes cooking, have patience cook well serve well.

Happy parenting!    

Towards the unknown horizons

Towards the unknown horizons

The dreamers dream to what they are not this day but will be in the days to come here, now, then, there, somewhere, anywhere one fine day. They are always considered as the imaginative people. Is it true? There seems a hair line difference between two but actually there is a vast difference.

The dreamers can have role model; they might have some stream lined vision to be what they want to be.  On the other hand the imaginative people have no guided   line or path towards anything. It can start from an atom to the entire universe. It can fly swiftly in any direction. It has no contours where as dreams have a line, a contour a goal a destination.

Dreams and imagination both are the mental process.  Both need an action to come into reality and make some existence in the world.

Dreams can have vision till horizon whereas the imagination is a mental journey towards an unknown horizon to a limitless extension.

When a dreamers dream comes true it builds an empire of his choice whereas when imagination turns into thoughts and then in action is the choice of the supreme energy, which transmits through an imaginative person. Fulfilled dreams give a satisfaction where as the existence of imagination gives a feeling of bliss.

Dreams are thought process that have their origin in the subconscious and conscious mind and depend on the personal experiences and the karmic actions. On the other hand imagination is the vibration in the universe which the person gets connected at the frequency level where his vibrations travel. Imagination is just like the signals getting from the almighty at various wave lengths.

When an imagination comes into action the person becomes the instrument of the God where he keeps on getting the action plans. The fiction writers must have felt the key words beautifully roll down from the sky one after the other and the writer weaves them into sentences. This amazing feeling the fiction writers can have the most. The poets find their source of poetry from their soul. It’s true that the poetry is the matter of soul. All the creative people feel this; if they give recognition to it keeping their ego and mind aside they can feel the bliss. The dreamers are the innovative whereas imaginative people are inventive; they create something new as they are the instrument of the creator. The dreamers go beyond what exists but the imaginative originate something new.

It’s all depending on what one is enhancing - the mind, body or the soul. If one works only upon the body, avoid mind and ignore the soul one will be a copy cat. His desires will be more and most of the time dissatisfied. If one is oriented towards mind (the person who is mind oriented does not ignore soul he just avoids it) he will be logical, run after success, gaining and gaining, accumulating too. Such people dream big, achieve big, and can reach from 0 to 75. A self cantered distinctive person in the society but at the end tired and helpless, feels squeezed out as the body and mind are exhaustible.

The person who is imaginative and makes the balance between soul, body and mind is the one who feels high, deep, wide peace wherever he is, gets feeling of communion with the existence the feeling of oneness, greatness, vastness. One mesmerizes in the “Virata Swarropa” of the creator. Imagination is the only door towards the unknown horizons. Open the door and move ahead.

The 'Yes' factor

                   

The 'Yes' factor

Life is a journey towards an unknown destination. The god has sent us here on a visa which has an expiry date, which is not known to us. It can be a short trip or a long voyage. It is full of ups and down, rise and fall, swings and spirals.

The miseries and joys go hand in hand. One side of the coin has misery the other has joy. It is just like the movements in the march past: Left-Right-Left or 1-2-1. Once the misery puts it leg forward stays there and then the joy comes forwards at the end they stand together. If we have to move forward we can avoid none.

Life is very well woven between two strands the misery and the joy. What kind of life we are going to weave in this journey depends on us. Its texture can be as smooth as a silk or as rough as a sack cloth.

Everybody wants to have a smooth beautiful soothing life like silk. It depends on us how do we take it?

The ‘Yes’ factor is very important to make the life soothing. As soon as we accept anything stating ‘YES’, the brain starts secreting the chemicals which helps in positive thinking and the brain starts thinking about various resources which the yes task requires. It energizes the person, enhances his enthusiasm, which is the most important energy to get the task done and achieve success. With saying ‘Yes’ the 25% of the task is done.

Then the person starts planning the task, jots down in details. Looks for the required team, collects resources. With a thorough planning the 25% more work is done. It comes to 50%.

Now it comes to execution the next halt of the success. Here the ‘Yes’ person has to just supervise the things as he delegates the work to his team members, with this ‘Yes’ : 25%+ Planning 25%+ Execution 25%= 75% work is done that is at the distinction level. If we reach to the 75% he last 25% the result is sure to come.

                                  

Yes 25%	Planning 25%
Execution 25%	Result    25%

  ‘Yes’ I Can

Here the ‘Yes’ factor is the most important as it is the initiative of taking up the challenge. If a person is not ready to accept, the brain rejects everything and it does not grab the opportunity. Stating “Yes” takes nothing. To be successful planning and execution are very important but they take place after ‘Yes’ only. So learn to say yes to any opportunity whether it is good or bad you can convert that into the Best.

           Yes, I can do it. Yeah, I have done!

Is money the parameter of success?

Money, Money, Money! Everybody is after gaining and multiplying money. Since dawn to dusk, awaken or slept, in dreams with eyes open or closed most of us keep our mind and body occupied with the mad rush after the money.

Only the people who have money possessions are called successful, whatever the stories they carry underneath.

Is money the parameter of success? It stirred up in my mind when I shared about success of one of my sessions on Emotional Well Being, with my friend. I was quite enthusiastic and highly satisfied, felt immense peace in my heart and the satisfaction on the faces of the participants inspired me to conduct such more sessions for the people who need it. And for me it was a great success. But my friend whom I shared with sternly reacted how much did you get? Did you have some monetary gain? Why do you come up with free sessions? How do you find it successful? And many more questions in reference to earn money.

The peace my heart got disturbed till the bottom of it. Just like somebody must have thrown pebbles one after the other in the calm Mansarovar Lake where I could see the crystal clear water till the bottom with the utmost clarity. The crystalline and the clarity got disturbed nothing was visible. The thoughts, in my mind, in my response to my friend’s reaction were rising and falling rapidly. The vision got blurred, the buzz of the questions forced me to think about to have paid sessions. And the calculation of gaining and multiplying has been started. The peace of mind, the clarity of vision, the level of satisfaction, everything is trodden.

How much would be enough to prove myself successful in the eyes of others, I don’t know. 

The peace of mind is the parameter of success or money, for me  peace, for others money may be.
