शीलं परम भूषणम् - character is the highest virtue

शीलं परम भूषणम्

Sheelam Param Bhushanam 

                                                            - character is the highest virtue

Character is the distinct quality one possess in ones being.  Character shows off a person's personality.  It is how you react to a situation or crisis and the way you respond in resolving the situation shows of your true character.  If you say something and do something else, it reflects the false behavior and character you have adopted in life.  If you cannot do what you say and do not walk the talk, it shows that you do not have control over yourself.  You will lose yourselves in the crowd when you do not carve out your distinct character in life.  It is the way you present yourselves and the way you act and react in different situations in life reflects your true character. 

The process of becoming emotionally stronger, more independent, and better at dealing with problems shows of your character.  Don't change so people will like you.  Be yourself and the right people will love that real you.  Understanding our true nature and building a character based on that will be the appropriate thing one needs to do in ones life.  One has to incorporate those things in ones life where in ones journey of life becomes effortless and gracious too.

The kind of traits you possess will reflect the uniqueness of your being as a creation of nature.  All creations of nature are unique in the sense that they carry a distinct quality which no other creatures tend to possess.  All creations of nature has that uniqueness inside of them.  We might be part of a particular species but still we stand out distinctly with our own intrinsic unique character of our being.  No creations of nature are similar, all have a distinct quality which has a beauty of its own.  

When we make a statement 'Beauty is in the eye of the beholder' we are indirectly implying that everything is beautiful on their own. There can be nothing that is ugly at all in all the creations of nature.  It all depends on how you form your views or opinion depending on your depth of understanding of nature and maturity in your being.

Spirituality or Consciousness,  is a state you attain of your higher being by understanding yourselves by taking the journey inward.  Spirituality is not a religion.  It does not have any colour or it belongs to any particular creed.  It is in fact, when you shed all your inhibitions of caste, creed, religion, dogmas etc., which you have been carrying all along in your journey of life up until now, you can get into the sphere of Spirituality.  It is a personal journey deep inside of your own being to find out who you are, what you are, what your true nature is, and what is the inbuilt program you need to stick to.  All creations of nature comes with a set inbuilt program which it needs to adhered to and it is not a matter of choice.  It is a personal journey to get into the core of one's being.

Once you become Spiritual, it will transform the character of your being built upon your intrinsic nature and you reach the higher state of consciousness in this journey of life.

The final Re-set - getting back into the rhythm of life

The final Re-set - getting back into the rhythm of life

Every vehicle you ride, drive around, being driven around in has to start at one point and gain momentum and reach your pre-decided destination covering certain amount of distance, in certain amount of time and ultimately you have to apply the brake and come to a halt and disembark from your said vehicle, which has absolutely served your needs by being a means of transport to carry you to your destination.  You make use of a means, a vehicle, to transport yourselves to your desired place of interest.

Have you ever wondered, what is that which keeps you moving from place to place, may be in search of some thing or in pursuit of an object of your desire, which you feel will give you a satisfaction by it being in your possession or being one more object in your collection?

You, being the subject and you have always had an inclination and desire to possess as much object as possible, as if life is a competition, to be part of your collection which you might use or not, but ultimately your collection of objects remain and the collector that is you have to exit from this existence leaving behind all your so called possessions of desire.  You are ultimately possessed by the desire to possess something which ultimately will remain in this world from which you depart into the infinity being free of all your worldly possessions.

Unless you grow or get out of the childish race of possessing things of your desiring mind, you will be entrapped by getting caught in the web of mind or maze of mind and you will start getting a dead feeling and think that there is no way out of this web.

You need to apply the brake in you life and the process of getting out of this web by resetting ourselves is what is the final reset.  You need to have a whack on your head to come back to your default state by resetting and realigning your system.  In our computers or any devices when we encounter any problem we have a reset button which will make that device come back to its default state from the current confused or altered state, you need to do the same with your internal system.

We are a product of nature and an outcome and a part of the natural process in this ecosystem and we need to decipher, understand, and stick to the program we are meant to stick to, you do not have any option to choose, you are destined to be in the realm of nature and so start accepting yourselves and your true nature and be so. You do not need to alter or tweak yourselves, you already are perfect and complete being.

You are overburdened by your thought process, which is restricting you and has become a hindrance to understand your true self and bloom in life.

You need to reset yourselves and get back and fall into the rhythm of life you are meant to be.  The rhythm is already there, you just need to acknowledge it and become a part of its process in this symphony called life.

Each and every product or outcome, output of nature, or creations of nature comes with a preset program in this package deal.  When you come back to your consciousness or when you become conscious of the fact of your true nature, you will never ever deviate from your set program in this life.

All things which come into this existence or this setting of environment has an inbuilt program which it needs to adhered to.  Conscious living will make you aware of that fact and then you will really start living and start existing.  Understanding the core of your being is what is spirituality is all about.  It is not written in some scriptures or book, it is deep inside your own being, which you need to realize and start accepting yourselves wholly.

Whack your head

Re-set your system

मौनं शक्तेः परं स्रोतम् - silence is a great source of power

मौनं शक्तेः परं स्रोतम् 

Maunam Shakteh Param Srotam 

                                                    - silence is a great source of power 

Silence speaks louder than words and ever will.  Being silent allows us to channel our energies.  It gives us the clarity we need to calmly face challenges and uncertainty.  Living in silence does not mean becoming a recluse or shutting people out.  It means being selective about what you share and when you share it.  Silence is the best answer if you are misunderstood, ignored, avoided, ditched, hurt by anyone.  When your feelings are not accepted and understood by people, silence is the best in a long run.  If people have the heart to understand, they will, even if you do not express.

Silence projects strength and authority. It communicates better if you have had enough of what is going on.  Silence brings about a sense of comfort.  Silence is necessary when you need to be strong.  Silence permits your aloneness with your thoughts while you try hard to make sense of it all.  If they are too busy to notice your silence, they will not be aware of your absence. Silence speaks volumes when they do not recognize, acknowledge or refuse to understand.

Silence conveys more than words.  In silence we can connect with our true feelings and ourselves. Silence allows us to stop and connect with the universe. It can also help us find the peace and serenity we often need in our lives.  Silence leaves you alone with your inner dialogue, which allows you to reflect, resolve conflicts and understand your feelings deeply.

Spirituality makes you experience your true self.  It makes you realize the essence of your being.  Silencing the mind is the main focus of Spirituality.  Only when things settle down inside you, will you be able to experience god consciousness.  God consciousness is the truth of your being.  Experiencing pure consciousness is the path towards transforming oneself into Enlighted Being.

शक्तिः दुर्दम्येच्छाशक्त्याः आगच्छति – strength comes from an indomitable will

शक्तिः दुर्दम्येच्छाशक्त्याः आगच्छति 

Shaktih Durdamyecchhashaktyah Aagachati

                                        - strength comes from an indomitable will

We have been hearing this quote "Where there is a will, there is a way" since childhood.  It means if someone really wants to do something, they will find a way to do it, even if there are things that make it hard to do.  If the going gets tough, the tough gets going.  A man with willpower will be so determined in his objectives that he will never shy away from any kind of obstacles or resistance.  Hard work pays.  A confident man will always have the strength and courage to move around aptly in any kind of situations in life. Where the willingness is great, the difficulties cannot be great. Your confidence and willpower is the gamechanger.

Mental strength and physical strength are the both factors which shape our life.  Achieving physical fitness goals boosts self-esteem and body image, while mental strength empowers individuals to believe in their abilities.  The combination of both physical and mental strength creates a strong sense of self-worth and confidence in one's capabilities.

Exercise is the best habit you can cultivate for your health for both mental and physical.  Exercise is one of the best ways to build physical strength and it is also a great way to build mental strength.  One major element of being mentally strong is feeling good about who you are and a solid way to increase your self-esteem and start feeling better about yourself.  Being mentally strong or mentally tough helps us resist both internal and external influences that weaken our self-confidence and well-being.  Mental toughness helps you to stay focused in crucial moments of life.

Spirituality helps you to build confidence in your own self.  It is a journey towards self awareness.  Knowing our true self is the path of Spirituality.  It is understanding the spirit in you, the essence of your being that is more important than external or objective part of your life.  You are satisfied internally and you are content with your self.  Being content with your life means that you are satisfied with what you have and who you are. You accept yourself as you are today, and you value all the opportunities and experiences you have had in your life.

Our strength comes from our indomitable will or pure determination.  Determination is the quality that you show when you have decided to do something and you will not let anything or anybody deter you from doing it.

Become more determined in Life

सा विद्या या विमुक्तये - that is knowledge, which liberates

सा विद्या या विमुक्तये

Sa Vidya Ya Vimuktaye

                                    - that is knowledge, which liberates  

This Sanskrit term 'Sa Vidya Ya Vimuktaye' is from Vishnu Purana which means education is that which liberates. The true purpose of education, according to this quote, is not merely to impart knowledge, but to free the mind from ignorance, narrow-mindedness, and limitations.  Our soul becomes liberated from the darkness of ignorance and superstitions if we can avail the light of knowledge.

What we learn throughout our lives through books, school, college, and scriptures are knowledge which is stored in our brain but have no experience regarding that.  Only when you gain experience through knowledge it becomes wisdom.  You become wise only through experience.  The more experience you gain, the more you become wiser in life.  Knowledge is of no value unless you put it into practice.  Experiencing life makes you more self confident.  If you become self confident, you will have more capacity to face life without any element of fear. 

Wisdom is using one's in-depth knowledge and experience to do good by oneself and others.  Wisdom is the interpretation and understanding of knowledge that leads to greater insight.  It is a combination of experience, knowledge and careful judgement. That which gives you insight into each and every aspect of life and living and liberates you from your ignorance is true knowledge.  Knowledge can be communicated, but not wisdom. 

What happens is not as important as how you react to what happens. Knowledge is the accumulation of facts and information.  Wisdom is knowing when, where, how to use this knowledge most beneficially.  Knowledge can be acquired by studying, but to acquire wisdom one must observe and absorb what they see and encounter in life.

Spirituality is a path which takes you on a journey inside of oneself to know your true self.   It will make you realize and aware of your true nature.  It will give you deep insight into each and every aspect of life and its intricacies.  It will make you be in the conscious state in the present.  It will make you realize and understand the realistic approach towards life.  It will make you let go of your ego and become selfless.  You start aligning with nature and go with its flow without any form of resistance.  Life will be a glorious and effortless journey once you adopt spiritual way of life.

ब्रह्मविद् ब्रह्मैव भवति - the knower of Brahman is Brahman itself

ब्रह्मविद् ब्रह्मैव भवति 

Brahmavid Brahmaiva Bhavati 

                                           - the knower of Brahman is Brahman itself

This brahma sutra is from Mundaka Upanishad, an ancient Sanskrit Vedic text.  The knower of the Brahman becomes the Brahman.  Here knowing and being are one and the same.  You not only know that you are infinite consciousness but you become the infinite consciousness.  To know the truth is to be the truth itself.  

Moksha or liberation is recommended as the highest goal of human life.  According to the Upanishad, the highest aim to be expected for a human being is union with the Brahman.  He who has recognized the oneness of Atma with Brahman will obtain union with the Brahman, The Supreme Being.  The merging of the independent soul with the universal soul.  Being one with the whole.  River joining the sea and becoming the sea in the process.

Unless you get to know your self you will not be able to know the whole of it.  We are part of the whole and we are apart now and the whole process in our life is to how to merge with the whole.  Unless you question your being, you will not take this path to know the true aspect of life and living.  Becoming spiritual and undertake the spiritual journey to know the ultimate is purely a personal journey.  There is no school, college, or university for that.  You can get or gather information about it from everywhere and store it within yourself but it is not your personal experience. Spirituality is a personal experience and a journey to be undertaken by each and every individual on his own will and wish and with the right and clear intention.

Spirituality is a journey wherein you dissolve all your acquired thoughts in your mind and silence the mind.  Unless you dilute all the thought process in your mind, you will not be able to undertake this journey.  Meditation is a process to calm the mind of its ever weaving thought processes.  To know the ultimate truth you have to discard all the acquired ones throughout your life up until now.  Unless you empty out your mind, the possibility is remote.  Only when you empty out your self completely you will be able to receive the revelations from the ultimate.

Spirituality is a path to know our true being.  It is path of introspection, to examine ones own conscious thoughts and feelings. It is a process to understand our true self of what we are made up of and what our true nature is.  Since we are product of nature, we have to be natural not otherwise.  It is a path to realize and understand our true nature and be so rest of the life.  To understand nature, you have to become natural again by regaining your true nature and aligning with it.  First you understand who you are and then you will have capacity to understand the whole concept of life and living over a time period.

न कंचित शाश्वतम् - nothing is permanent

 न कंचित शाश्वतम् 

Na Kanchit Shaashvatam - nothing is permanent

Change is the essence of nature, so nothing can be permanent and will be permanent.  Every creation of nature is constantly evolving out of its present state.  The whole of evolutionary process is working all the time eternally evolving out its present state.  Everything in nature is in a transitory stage.  Our earth is moving and we are also moving along with it.  The whole cosmos is on the move eternally.  Everything is in perpetual motion without beginning or end.  Every motion is cyclic in nature going around another celestial creation of nature.  Nature is changing and moving all the time and it is expanding its expanse which cannot be measured by human mind.  

We are one of the finite creations of nature and we cannot know or understand about infiniteness of nature.  Every day you come to know of new things about nature in this world and what we come to know in our lifetime is just a minuscule comparted to what is out there as unknown.   The unknown is always more than the known.  We come as unknown and we depart as unknown having had a glimpse of what we call it as we know about something.   We are just a witness to all the happenings outside of us.  We can just observe and absorb all the events that is taking place throughout our lifetime.  Our influence is zero inside of us and outside of us.  Everything is influenced and is under the influence of nature.  Nature has bought us into this world, it takes care, and takes us back into its fold once our time period ends and we expire out of the system.  Life is a transient journey from birth to death.

The only thing left for us is to realize, understand, and assimilate the working pattern of nature and how we can realign with its flow.  We started with its flow, we got deviated and now we are realigning back into the natural flow after realization.  Going with the flow of nature is the only way forward for any sensible individual on this planet.  Flowing with nature is the least resistant way for our journey of life.  If any individual wants peace in his life, he has to just align with the flow of nature without any form of resistance in a let go fashion.  Let go is the mantra for a pleasant and glorious journey of life.

Life is a journey and we have boarded it at one point and we have a set of co-passengers like us who have boarded it at different points in their journey and we will be offloaded one after another at one point or the other and the journey of life continues.   Imaging a train going in a circular route and people getting into it at one station and getting offloaded out of it at another station and the train continues eternally and the passengers keep changing all the time.

Spirituality is a path for every individual to realize his true self and understand his nature.  It will help you to understand your true nature and be so rest of your life.  It will make you let you be your own self in this journey of life and makes you realize the role you are supposed to playout in this nature's game reserve.

यतो धर्मः ततो जयः - where there is Dharma, there is victory

यतो धर्मः ततो जयः 

Yato Dharmastato Jayah 

                                              - where there is Dharma, there is victory

Where there is righteousness, there is victory. 

The motto of Supreme Court of India is   यतो धर्मस्ततो जयः॥ Where there is righteousness (Dharma), there is victory (jayah) has been taken from Mahabharatha, the Sanskirt epics of ancient India. Its a reaffirmation of the core Sanatana philosophy, Dharma, and the supremacy of the moral code of conduct over everything else. That no matter what, Dharma will prevail.

Being righteous literally means to be right, especially in a moral way. A righteous person not only does the right thing for other people but also follows Dharma.  Dharma is a key concept that can be translated as ‘righteousness’, duty, etc.  The righteous people always win the victory in spite of the hardships. Therefore, we should always follow the right path unmindful of the challenges in life, and go ahead with the belief that Truth Always Wins.  

One should keep in mind that the truthful persons, following the right path, have to suffer a lot. The world is full of tricksters and deceitful persons who want to achieve their desired goals by hook or by crook. We have to fight against them by using the right means. The victory won by the wrong means can give us joy for a short period only. Whatever the adverse circumstances may be, we will never swerve from the right path.

The word Dharma has been misused in India for the past many years because people started using Dharma in the sense of religion and sects.  Dharma is universal and eternal, it is not Buddhist, Christian, Hindu, Jain etc, these are all different religions or sects.  Dharma has nothing to do with any religion.  Since ancient times, Dharma meant the universal laws of nature, which are applicable to everyone and everywhere.  The English word 'secular' was wrongly translated as Dharma-nirpeksh meaning non-Dharmic.

Meditation should begin with truth as its objective and as one progresses, one should give all importance to the truth of the present moment.  As one progresses in his life based on truth, one finally reaches the stage where one attains the Ultimate Truth.  The ultimate truth can be obtained only through silence, not by thinking about it.  Practice of meditation is to still the mind of its thought processes.  One must walk the path in accordance with the law of nature, Dharma, which can be realized only through personal experience.

Spirituality is a path which will make you realize about your true self.  It is a journey inside of ones being. Once you know your true nature and be so, you follow the path of nature and the laws of Dharma. Spirituality will make you to be in the present conscious state and to be a witness to the ecological process of nature.  It will make your mind still and not make it drift to past or future.  It will ultimately transform you into an Enlightened Being over a course of time.

सर्वं ज्ञानं मयि विद्यते - all i have to learn is within me

सर्वं ज्ञानं मयि विद्यते 

Sarvam Dnyanam Mayi Vidyate 

                                                           - all I have to learn is within me

Everything you are searching for is within you, realization will make you aware of it.  We fail to see that what we seek outside of us is already within us.  Understanding about ourselves is the first step to understand the whole world.

From the day we were born on this earth, we are made to focus more on the external world by our parents, family, relatives, friends, and society as a whole.  We were always taught to look exterior in our life and focus and channel our mind towards career building.  We are programmed by our peers towards academics and jobs in professional fields. We are made to believe that we need to search outside of us in the world for our happiness. We are made to focus more on materialistic things which gives us fleeting happiness.  We are taught and made to believe that only if you possess the desired objects in our lives you get satisfaction and happiness.   We were always taught and made to pursue for momentary pleasures rather than long-lasting happiness throughout our life.

Our whole life is always made to focus on objects of desires for our happiness.  We are always made to think that happiness is somewhere outside of us, in the outside world.  Man strives for happiness throughout his life outside in the materialistic world.  He is never made to feel that happiness is a feeling deep inside of our being. Happiness is a subjective feeling sensed by our senses deep inside our body.  Objects of desires are just projections by one body part, the mind, which make you think you will feel happy when you possess it from the outside world.  Mind keeps projecting objects to be desired and keeps us running throughout our lifetime until one day the desiring person is no more.  Man of materialistic desire will always be thirsty and he will never be able to quench his thirst in his lifetime.

We are organic in nature.  All organisms have sensory organs and are emotional in nature.  It is the feeling one feels deep inside of oneself in different situations and circumstances in life which is the most important aspect one needs to focus on.  All feelings are emotional in nature.  Happiness is a emotional feeling deep inside our being.  It is a whole body feeling not related to one body part.  We need to focus ourselves on our feelings more than thinking in our life.  Feeling is realistic form of expression from all parts of our body as a whole while thinking is just a projection of one body part, the mind, and a probability, not realistic.  We need to give more importance to our feelings than thinking in our life

Spirituality is a path which will lead you deep inside of ones being.  It is about understanding the subjective reality, the world of emotions and feelings.  It is about understanding the subject that is you and me.  Self understanding or understanding of oneself is Spirituality.  It is understanding about what we are made up of and our basic nature.  It is learning about oneself.  All I have to learn is deep within me.  We are organisms of organic world.  We are made of same elements which are present outside of us.  So, once we know our true self from inside, it will be easier for us to know the outside world.

आत्मदीपो भव। - be your own light

आत्मदीपो भव।

Aatmadeepo Bhav - be your own light

Truth is light.  Awareness is light.  Everyone has to have their own light.  Ignorance is the darkness of not knowing.  To come out of your ignorance, darkness, you need a ray of hope in the form of light.  Only you can enlighten yourself through your own efforts.  Knowledge removes the darkness of ignorance in life and makes life a joyful experience. We remain depressed in life due to lack of knowledge.  Not knowing about something can make you feel depressed in life.

Each and every person has a dormant switch inside his being which when switched on will make them come out of their darkness by lighten up their life and they get enlightened about their own self and everything around them, it is just a matter of realization.  Realization is the key for self transformation.  The day or the moment you realize and come out of your darkness in life, you free yourselves to transform yourselves into an Enlightened Being.  An Enlightened Being is the one who is awake and lives life consciously and goes in the path of light and charts his own destiny.

We have a festival of light, Diwali, in India.  Diwali or Deepavali is a festival celebrated for banishment of the darkness of ignorance from our lives to illuminate the path to prosperity, glory, and happiness. Diwali is a festival which dispels the darkness of ignorance, which is the root cause of all of our sorrows.

Initially, you need a guide to lead you and follow him until you discover your own guiding light deep inside your being,  Once you realize, you will be your own light in your life.  Guidance is required in the beginning and then you will be on your own once you come to realization of your own light deep inside your being.  Every one can and nobody cannot, if not in this life, the succeeding cycle of life.  Only when you put your full effort in that direction you will get enlightened in life.  You have to overcome your dark phase of life by your self by your own effort.  It starts with effort but ends with no effort. Once you are enlightened, you will live rest of your life effortlessly and gloriously with full gratitude towards the existence.

Discovering the connectedness of the universe is the ultimate goal of  enlightenment.  Enlightenment makes you reconnect to the universal force, the nature.  External influence made you disconnect yourself from being natural.  You got disconnected over the course of time in pursuit of your desired objective goals in external life and once you realize and become enlightened about it, you reestablish your connection with the nature.

Spirituality is the path to understand your subjectivity.  It is a path to realize your true self.  The quality of being yourselves is what matters the most.  Spirituality takes you in the path of self realization and be your own light for life.

Be your own light to enlighten yourself

ज्ञानं भारः क्रियां विना - knowledge is a burden without action

 ज्ञानं भारः क्रियां विना

dnyanam bharah kriyam vina 

                                               - knowledge is a burden without action


Since the day we are born on this earth and come into existence, we are curious to know everything.   It is the curiosity in us which makes us to know about new subjects and things.  Whatever you gain by understanding and come to know about anything unless it is shared it will be of no use that is the first thing about knowledge.  Knowledge becomes a burden if it is not integrated into our life.  Gaining knowledge and storing it in our brain can only help in boosting our ego of knowing something.  Just by gaining knowledge is one part that is 1%, experiencing it, integrating into your life is the main part that is 100%.  Knowledge which is not put into use is of no use. 

As we clean our house everyday and throw out things which are not of any use to us likewise we need to clean our brain everyday of its unwanted knowledge which has become a garbage in your brain.  It is always better to clean our brain of unwanted and unused knowledge to make it lighter to make the space available for new knowledge which can be useful in our life.  Just because you have lot of space in your brain it does not mean that you store everything you come across in your lifetime.  Do not treat your brain as dustbin, throwing everything into it, it will get burdened with unnecessary and unused things and gives you a headache.  Store only things which enhances your life and makes a difference in your life to make it better.  It is always better to have empty space rather than store unnecessary things and make it full.   Fullness will only makes you egoistic that you know something and everything.

It is the experience that you gain by putting your knowledge into action that matters a lot in your life.  Any experience whether it is good or bad enhances your life and makes you a wiser being.  Being wise is more better than being knowledgeable.  The more you experience different aspects of your life, the more you become wiser being.  Becoming wiser makes your journey of life an effortless and pleasurable experience.  It is the wiseness in you which makes you take the appropriate decisions in any kind of situations in life.   It is like, studying to get a degree in a particular field is knowledge, getting a job in that field and experience it on a day to day basis will make you more confident in life.  Certificates gives you eligibility but experience gives you self confidence.  Unless you are confident in your self you cannot achieve anything in life.

It is the feeling you get that you are capable of doing it on your own gives you confidence in life and life becomes a challenge for rest of the lifetime.  Anything that becomes a burden restricts your progress in life. Off loading your burden will make life easy and the journey will be effortless.  Unless you make your journey of life effortless by becoming wise through experience, it will be boring and a regretful experience.  Life will be a joyful experience for the one who is wiser.

Spirituality helps you know your true self by realization in life.  It was already there all the time, it is just that you have not realized it.  You were focused so externally in your life that you do not know your true self.  You did not put any effort to know your true self.  Spirituality helps you to realize the essence of your being.  Unless you know who you are you will not be able to get clarity on anything in life.  It is out of understanding you evolve.  Evolution is a process of getting out of the present state.  If you come out of your present state then you have evolved yourselves.  Spirituality helps you to evolve to be a better human being who is natural to the core.  Being natural should be your motto, nothing else will do.  Spirituality makes you realize and helps you to regain and retain your naturality.

Interdependence - significant other

Interdependence - significant other

We are born as an individual but our journey needs companionship.  Without the other you are worthless. It is a combination factor.  When two things come together there will be communion. Being together is the only way out and is the only possibility. Life cannot be led independently, impossible.  Life is interdependent. You are important and the other is also equally important. Without the other you cannot survive and without you the other cannot survive.

Life does not make any sense without interdependence. We need each other, and the sooner we learn that, it is better for all of us.  It suggests that we cannot survive and thrive in isolation, and we need to recognize and appreciate the role of others in our lives.  By recognizing and appreciating the role of others in lives, we an create a more harmonious and supportive society. All living things depend on their environment to supply them with what they need including food, water, and shelter.  

The pattern of life reflects synchronous living. It cannot be otherwise.  Nothing is independent everything is interdependent. When people work together for the good of others, they feel more connected to both themselves and others.

Every creation of nature is related to you and has a role to play in all other creations.  When you were born you were in a helpless state. You are born in the protection of your parents.  They took care of you in all aspects till you were able to manage on your own without their intervention or help. This process sets an obligation on your part to take care of the helpless, when your parents become old, weak, diseased, and above all when they are not able to manage their life due to old age related issues.

You are responsible for well being of your fellow human beings as well as safeguarding the nature. The healthy has to take care of the unhealthy and that is how it is.  The strong has obligation towards the weak, not domination or suppression.  Caring and sharing is the mantra of harmonious living.  Life becomes a symphony when we coexist amicably. It is not just existence, it is coexistence.

Realize your true self through Spiritual path.  Give importance to others in your life as they are also equal stake holders in this existence. 

Know your true self

Celebrate life collectively

Self Awareness - looking inwards

Self Awareness - looking inwards

Since the day you are born you try to gain knowledge by trying to understand the life outside of your self.  Throughout your life you try to acquire knowledge and wanting to gain knowledge by gathering information and store it in your brain which you might or might not use in your lifetime.  We hardly use 1% of what we had gathered and stored in our brain throughout our lifetime.  We have knowledge but not experienced it and we lack experience.  Being knowledgeable feeds your ego to feel good.  

You know everything else other than yourself.  You hardly know about your true self. Self awareness is the capacity to look inward and understand our own feelings, emotions, stressors and personality. 

To attain knowledge, add things everyday. To attain wisdom, remove things every day.

Life is a subjective experience.  We are subjects of life. Life is subjective. It revolves around you and me and nothing else.  If you understand yourselves, you understood life.  Life is simple and needs a simplest approach to understand it.  The whole which is outside is also inside you.  If you know the inside, you will know both the inside-outside of life.  The inside is no different from outside.  Everything is the same in different proportions. The essence is the same, only quantity differs.  Clarity in vision, thoughts, and perception will make your life easier. Life is simple, we make it complicated by not understanding its nature and not aligning with nature.

If you want to be life positive, you should align with nature and flow with it. Once your body and mind aligns with the rhythm of nature, your journey of life will be effortless.  It is just a cake walk.  It is as if sliding on a butter.  You do nothing, it takes care and it takes care of everything.  It brought you in the first place, it takes care, and finally it takes you back into its fold.

You and me have to do nothing, but just, allow it to happen and enjoy life.

If you think journey of life is effort based, then you have a long way to go to understand what is life.  Life is a play, you are a character, so you play your part/slot that is it.  When every creation of nature is playing its role perfectly well then why not you.  Only man has not aligned with nature.  He has deviated to such an extent that he has lost his way in the journey of life.  He is at loss. He is in a jam.  He is in a maze without a way out.  He has encountered a wall, a obstruction.  He is not finding a way out.  To be out of the jam, he needs a door to exit from the current situation, which he is not able to find because of his own doings.

Conscious living is the way out of your traffic jams in life.  Living consciously will make you come out of any situation in life with ease, effortlessly.  

Spirituality is a path for self awareness.  It will lead you into the path to know your true self.  It is an internal and intrinsic journey to understand the true essence of our being.  Once you know who you truly are and what you are and accept yourself fully, then rest of the life's journey will be an easy affair. Self awareness leads to know our true self and respect life.  It starts with you and your inner self and it will be easy to understand every thing else in life later on.  Once you accept your true self, you start accepting everything in life in a let go fashion without any form of expectation.

Accept Spirituality

Become aware of your self

भयमेवास्ति शत्रुः - fear is the only enemy

भयमेवास्ति शत्रुः  - fear is the only enemy

Bhayamevasti Shatruh

The Sanskrit phrase "भयमेवस्ति शत्रु" translates into "Fear is the only enemy" in English. Fear is the unpleasant feeling you have when you think that you are in danger.    It is an unpleasant emotional feeling you have, caused by impending danger, evil or pain which can be imagined or real.  It is feeling of being afraid of something.  It is the uneasy feeling you get when you are not sure what is going to happen or what is the outcome of something in the near future.  Fear itself can often be the biggest obstacle that one faces in life. It can inhibit progress, cloud judgment, and prevent individuals from achieving their goals. By recognizing and overcoming one's fears, one can effectively conquer their most significant challenges and obstacles in their life.  Fear is the biggest enemy in your life which is staggering your progress.

Our whole religion is based on fear factor.  It is the fear which prevents you from doing evil things in life.  We have been taught and programed that if we do good we will go to heaven and if we do bad we will be thrown into the hell.  All the worlds religions are constructed based on fear factor.  May be to bring orderliness in our society these religions were established for overall good of human beings when the society was evolving from it chaotic state.  The feeling of fear hovers over your head even more when you have no self confidence.  You are your own enemy if you fear about uncertainty in life.  Everything you want in your life is on the other side of fear.

Fear causes psychological changes that may produce behavioral reactions. Your behavior changes when you always fear for your life. Many people have fear of unknown and when there is uncertainty about something, it instills fear in you.  The more you try to avoid fear the more you become fearful in your life.  Fear comes from the mind.  It is hard to find happiness when you are living with fear in your life.  Fear will lead you to be in an anxiety and anxious state.  Fear is like a mold, it grows in the dark.  Most of the fear we can overcome by going deep into your fear causing factor and understanding the reason for your being fearful.  Out of understanding you can overcome fear.  Over thinking leads to fear in life.  Living in the present in a conscious way will make you overcome your fear and live life fearlessly and effortlessly.  Awareness will help you to overcome fear and anxiety out of your life.

Fear is formed when the mind focuses on the uncertainty of future outcomes.  Confidence comes from awareness of all the facts thereby helps in overcoming your fear factors in your life.

मम नियतिम् नियछ्मि - I control my destiny

मम नियतिम् नियछ्मि

Mum Niyatim NiychamiI control my destiny

The power that determines the course of future events.  Destiny is the force that some people think controls what happens in the future, and which cannot be influenced by people.

The nature is the deciding factor of your beginning and ending on this earth.  We are born here and destined to be here because of nature. In fact, almost 99% of our existence is being influenced by nature.    Birth, growth, survival and death is all controlled by nature.  We have no option left to control our existence other then to act as facilitator to our body by obeying its commands and fulfilling our obligations towards it externally.  Body on its own can look after itself in all aspect like breathing, growth factor, digestion, assimilation, evacuation etc.  Obtaining food on its own is the only function the body cannot do itself and for which it entirely depends on you for external functions.  It controls all the functions of body internally and it only expects you to coordinate in getting right kind of food for it to generate energy to sustain your body.

Taking care of your body should be your ultimate aim in your life.  Body should be your top priority.  If you have a healthy body and mind then it will be easy to pursue your external goals in life.  Internally body controls everything and externally you need to take control of your destiny. Destiny is an external factor of your life.   Your destiny is in your hands.  It is not written on the lines of your palm.  You need to take responsibility to take care of your bodies external needs and your desire of achieving something in life.  You control your destiny and nobody else.  You are responsible for yourselves for all external aspects of your life.  

You have to evolve out of your experience to guide your life to make the journey of life a pleasant experience.  The journey part of your external life is in your hands, you can shape it and mold it according to your experience.   Your experience determines your destiny.  The destiny of your life has to be decided by you and you alone. यत भावो-तत भवति - you become as you think and what you think depends upon what you believe.  Living consciously will make you control your destiny.

Spirituality is a path to make you realize and guide you to become your true self.  It will make you have belief in your being.  Once you realize your true self and believe in your self then you gain self confidence and become life positive.  Upon realization, you align with your body internally and you will be able to guide your destiny externally effortlessly.  Now you become the master of yourself.  The internal peace what you have achieved through realization will help you to get peace in your external life.  Your external life is a reflection of your internal being.  Once you have peace within, you will be destined to have peace in all aspect of your life.  Since you have become life positive, this positiveness radiates all through your life.

आध्यात्मिक जागरण - spiritual awakening

आध्यात्मिक जागरण

Adhyatmik Jagran - spiritual awakening


ध्यात्मिक जागरण - spiritual awakening is coming out from thought process of your mind.  It is about making oneself aware of who we are, what we are and what we have always been.  It is about understanding the true spirit inside of each and every individual and become aware of it and be so.  Spiritual awakening is attained by an individual self by undergoing the journey deep inside of ones being and realizing there true self.

In the beginning of our life we are more concerned about our basic needs and as we grow out of our adolescence and become fully mature, we start desiring for materialistic things which gives us fleeting happiness and in fact we are more concentrated on getting happy for the moment and for the time being not aspiring for lasting happiness.  We will be chasing objects of desire which makes us happy by possessing them or owning them.  We also pursue things which makes us happy for the time being and there after your happiness wears out and you will be in sad state once again and this cycle of being happy and sad keeps happening throughout our lives and nothing lasts forever.

We will be sad most part of our lives with occasional feeling of happiness happening infrequently throughout our lives. The sad part is larger than the happy part in our lives and it alternates regularly like day and night.  Sadness is there most part of our lives occasionally getting a glimpse of happiness.  Once you understand this pattern of sadness and happiness happening in our entire life there arises a moment when you feel like opting out of this pattern in your life.  You start thinking and wondering about what is the thing that gives you permanent happiness and you try to search and go in that direction.  We pursue for happiness feeling externally throughout our life.  We think objects of desire makes us happy, but happiness is subjective feeling deep inside oneself.  Feelings are subjective and not objective.

Unless you question yourself you will not get answers for your questions.  Any feeling of happiness or sadness is deep inside of your being.  You get the different feelings depending on the way you condition your internal being.  Unless you know your self you will not be able to know your feelings.  You awaken your being from the fleeting feeling based on external factors in your life and you become more aware of what is going on outside and inside of yourselves that is influencing your life and feelings inside you.  Once you are aware of what is going on you will realize that everything is related to conditioning of your internal being.

Awakening from sleep every day in the morning is the routine awakening.  Spiritual awakening means awakening in life once for all permanently and live life consciously rest of your life.  It is a life transformative experience wherein you view life in a completely different perspective in its truest form.

The real journey of your life starts when you start exploring about your own self.  Spirituality is a path wherein you undertake a intrinsic and internal journey deep inside of your being.  It is a journey to understand our true self of what we are made up of and what we truly are.  It will make you realize the essence of your being.  It will make you spiritually aware of your being.  You will experience Spiritual Awakening of being one with the whole existence.  It will transform you into an Enlightened Being.  You will feel blessed and blissful once you have experienced Spiritual Awakening,  It is the ultimate moment in your life where in you start experience pure consciousness.

सशक्तिकरणम् - the power within

सशक्तिकरणम् 

Sashaktikaran - empowerment, the power within

We are creations of nature and we have an inbuilt set program and defined role for all the body parts to follow and work in tandem without involvement of our mind.  The nature has also empowered us with all the necessary input and body mechanics to function optimally to go about our daily life. Through constant practice and usage our body parts starts performing its functions subconsciously and effortlessly.  We are just an external facilitator for our internal body.

Since we have been given eyes to see, we think and start focusing on external aspect of our lives and not acknowledging the internal aspect of our body which is the main reason we are alive on this earth.  Our whole existence is based on our internal body parts working diligently, efficiently and constantly without a break and without any form of hinderance in its working.   Unless we accept ourselves and our body wholly our performance in external life will become chaotic and will be in disarray.

First and foremost thing once you attain your senses fully is to understand your body parts and its function and give utmost importance to your internal voice from your body parts and execute its command promptly without using your mind.  Throughout our lives we keep getting subtle messages and commands from our internal body which we often ignore as we are more involved and interested in our external lives.  We give a lot of importance to our external life like education, career, profession and possession of materialistic objects of desires and fully neglecting our body as if it has no importance and no role to play.  If your body lets you down with some illness or disease then your whole external life will collapse like a pack of cards.  Your whole external empire will collapse in front of your eyes and you will feel helpless about it.

Any amount of possessions you achieve in your external life will be of no use and utter waste if you neglect to take care of your body and its subtle messages.  Whatever you want to do or doing in your external life has to be put into pause mode and attend to your bodily needs and body commands on a priority basis.  Unless you have a healthy body your external empire is of no use.  Your whole focus in your life should be to take care of your body and bodily needs on top priority basis.  

Nothing is more important in life then your body and mental health.  Health is wealth and nothing can replace it.  If you are healthy you can pursue your goals in external life and it will be of use in your life as you have not neglected your body in trying to pursue that.  If you have made a lot of wealth neglecting your body requirements and when you encounter serious illness in your life, all your wealth will be of no use to save yourselves from the illness and your entire life efforts of achieving fame and wealth will down the drain.

Spirituality helps you in realizing and understanding your true potential and how much you are already empowered with.  It will make you understand your empowerment capacity you were born with and utilize it to the maximum benefit of your life.  Spirituality is a path to realize your true self and the potential within oneself.  It will make you be yourself and will make you live life effortlessly.  It will ultimately transform you into an Enlightened Being.

Embrace Spirituality, it helps you to realize and understand that you are already empowered by nature in all aspects for the journey of life.

अनुगच्छतु प्रवाहं - go with the flow

अनुगच्छतु प्रवाहं  

Anuugachtu Pravaha - go with the flow

Nature is always in present continuous tense, ever changing.  Change is the essence of nature.  Evolution means change from the present state.  Nothing in nature remains in constant state, it evolves out of it selves all the time.  

River represents life, ever flowing.   Life keeps on flowing like a river and going downstream towards the vastness of ocean to join it and become one with ocean.  Since we are a product of nature we have to be natural and flow with the nature, aligning with it all the time.  Those who follow natural course encounter least resistance in their life.  There journey of life will be a effortless and smooth affair being along with nature.  You can avoid conflicting situations in life by flowing with nature trusting it 100% without any element of doubt.  Nature does not deviate from its natural course and you can be certain of that and always be with it.

नुगच्छतु प्रवाहं  - go with the flow means embrace or accept life as it comes never expect or desire for anything at all.  We have come without our expectation or desire to be born here, so we need to accept life with full gratitude and go with the flow of nature, that is the true course of our life.  Going against the flow of nature needs a lot of effort and you will face all sorts of obstacles and hardships in life.  Anything you do against nature is unnatural and be ready to face the consequences thereof.

Being natural should be your ultimate aim in life.  There is a pattern in nature which we should try to decipher and adopt it in our life so that we can be in the right path in our journey of life.  Being natural is what you are supposed to be because you cannot be otherwise.  Every creation of nature has an inbuilt program and a pattern for it to follow, it is as simple as that.  You are born as a question and the answer to it lies within your self.  If every creation of nature follows its natural course, life will be a one great symphony and conflicting situations will never arise.  If someone does not follow the natural course he will the cause for the chaos and confusion for everybody else.

Spirituality is a path which will lead you into the natural course in the journey of life.  It will make you realize your true nature and stick to it until you exist on this earth.  It will enlighten your life by giving insight into each and every aspect of life and living.  Life will be a beautiful experience once you adopt spiritual path.  Everyday will be wonderful and exciting experience once you follow the path of spirituality.  It will make you realize and understand the spirit inside of oneself and make you be in alignment with it throughout your lifetime.   Spirituality makes you be your true self and lead a contended life.

सर्ववस्तूनि कारणोद्भवानि - everything happens for a reason

 

सर्ववस्तूनि कारणोद्भवानि


Sarvavastuni Karanodbhavani 
                                                
                                                       -  everything happens for a reason

र्ववस्तूनि कारणोद्भवानि - everything happens for a reason and there cannot be anything without a reason and if we cannot make it out then it does not mean it has no reason, it means we do not have or built capacity to know the reason.

We have come into existence without our knowledge and intention.  It is only after we attain our full senses that we realized that we are existing on this earth in flesh and blood.  We can only realize anything after it has already happened.  An event takes place and we come to know of it and then we need to know of it completely through reasoning to get a feeling in ourselves that we know it fully inside out and we feel satisfied with that feeling.  Only through awareness that you come to know of anything only after it has happened and you want to know why and what of it.   

The whole existence is evolving continuously eternally.  We being a limited being we cannot know the limitlessness of the whole existence and the Cosmos.   The infiniteness of the whole existence can be know only when we come out of our limited being and we come out of our mind based analysis.  Mind can only comprehend finite things and defined things and also defines things and puts them into a slot.  Mind cannot comprehend infinite things which cannot be slotted at all.  The mind is too small and limited in its capacities to decipher infinite or limitless things.  It can only construct a theory about it, that is all.  How can a frog in the well comprehend about the vastness of the sea or universe outside of its well, it always thinks the well is the whole universe.  

It is very easy to decipher things with boundaries around it, but it is near to impossible to know about things which have no boundaries.  We have to understand the limitations of the mind and we need to go beyond the mind to understand things which are boundary less.  We should realize that we need a different approach to grasp and understand about the vastness of this universe.  It needs a full body approach rather than just one part of the body, that is mind, trying to decipher it.  You can know about it partly if your approach is through one part.  You need to have a holistic approach to understand the wholeness of it.  

Spirituality is the way forward.  It is a way to understand your true self wholly and thoroughly.  It is an internal and intrinsic journey within oneself to realize our true being.  Once you come to know about your own self then their arises a possibility of knowing the world outside of your self.  It begins within you and then gets outside of your self.  First try to know yourselves thoroughly and then you build a capacity to understand the whole outside world in which you are a part of.  If a part wants to know the whole, it has to outgrow its part and then there arises a possibility, otherwise not.  Once you dissolve your self then you merge with the whole becoming the whole itself.

Uni means one, single, universe means a single entity or existence.  When universe is one verse, a compose, coming together, and you are a part of it then you become part of the oneness, the Universe.  You though you were different, apart, once you realize, you come to an understanding that you are part of the whole and you come out of your part and dissolve yourselves in the whole, wholeness is oneness.  Losing your individual identity will give your global identity, a universal identity.

Embrace Spirituality to know your real identity and celebrate your existence

परिमित तथा अनन्त - finite and infinite

परिमित तथा अनन्त 

Parimit thata Ananta - finite and infinite

We are Parimit or finite part of the Ananta or infinite world.  Your whole life is to try to understand your finiteness and how to come out of this cage of finiteness and understand the infinite whole and merge with the ultimate reality.  A part becoming the whole.  You are a part of the whole who got disintegrated and now you have to reintegrate with the whole and do not wish to remain as a finite part. 

We come into existence in this world as finite being with definite form, shape, program, and with all sorts of limitedness.  We are provided with a set limit in every aspect of our life and living since we are limited being.  We are born as finite being in this infinite world for a reason.  First try to understand the limitations of being a finite creation and once you realize your capacities and reach to the brim then step into the infinite world to try to understand it.  You are born as a part of the whole creation and to understand the whole first you need to understand your part thoroughly then their arises a possibility of knowing the whole.  A finite thing cannot understand infinite thing unless it comes out of its finiteness.  Once you come out of your limited being and become free from your limitations you will have access to know the unlimited or infinite existence.

We being limited being by birth, our limitations are there in all our doings.  Limited beings can know about limited and finite things and cannot know about unlimited and infinite things in life.  First try to know your limitations and be within it and stick to the program and do not try to deviate from it or try to become something else other than what you already are and made for and to be.  First try to understand your capacities and utilize them to full extent and contain yourselves within your limited program.  Once you know inside-out of your limitations then you start wondering about infinite things in this world.  It is only when you question your being you will search for answers for them.  Unless you question about your limitedness you will not be able to come out of it. You have to come out of the cocoon of limitedness and fly out like a butterfly freeing yourselves from your shell into the free infinite world.

Your life journey starts from zero to zero that is your lifespan, from one end to the other which appears to be different but your starting and ending point is zero, one and the same.  You start from one point at birth and culminate at the same point at death after going around the circle or cycle of life.  Your journey is in a lifecycle starting as finite and merging with the infinite existence.  You and I are brought in by existence and will ultimately taken back into its fold once you have completed your lifecycle in this world.  Your span of life is from zero to zero.  You feel as if you are going or growing but ultimately you are outgrowing yourselves to exit from this existence.  Finite things come and go and infinite things remain for ever.

Spirituality is a path from finite being to infinite being.  It is a path of liberation from your finiteness or limitedness.  It transforms you from being objective to subjective by realizing your true self.  It will help you dissolve your self into the ocean of existence.  Limited becoming the unlimited.  River joining the sea and becoming the sea itself.  It is a path to lose your individual identity and merge with the universal identity.  Part becoming the whole.  It will transform you from a ordinary being to universal being.  Spirituality is a path of transformation.  It will help you to transform from a caterpillar to butterfly freeing your self from the cocoon and take flight as a butterfly into the free world.

Become conscious and adopt Spirituality and

free yourselves from your finite being and celebrate life
