Mistakes


Mistakes in life are natural. We should learn from our mistakes so as not to repeat them. Move on to a new level of awareness.

Brooding over a mistake takes us away from finding the solution to the problem. Every time we dwell on the past, on the things which did not happen, we are creating an obstruction for all the things we wish to happen.

A few of us may have suffered a lot due to our mistakes and shortcomings, perhaps we are being prepared for a greater purpose that requires all the wisdom imbibed through the trials. Mistakes make us stronger and confident to move forward.

Life sometimes takes an unknown turn, do not be afraid to travel it.

False Promises


Log bolte kuch hai aur karte kuch..

Aisa lagta hai ki aisi duniya mai ji rahe jahan promises ki koi importance hi nahi.

Promise karke bhool jana logon ki aadat ho gayi ....False promises!!!

Har taraf jhoot hi jhoot..Jhoot ki koi seema hi nahi..Jhoot ke sahare apni zindagi guzaarna apne aap ko dhoka dene ke barabar hai..

Ek din mai kitni baar jhoot bolte hai uska andaza hai??? Nahin !!!

Jab pata hai ki koi kaam ya promise nibhana mushkil hai to kehte kyon nahi??? Jhoot ka sahara kyon??? False promises kyon???

Speak up....

Aisa karne se apni credibility khote hai aur rishtey bhi toot jaate hai..

Realise karen..Jhoot ki jaal se bahar nikle..

Stop, think, whatever you promise to do, do it..

Be honest, keep your word and move ahead in life...

Blame Game


Often we find fault in others, we want perfection in everyone and everything.. as though we are perfect in all walks of life…
We need to learn to understand our self.. positive as well as negative outlook /emotions. When we love, appreciate and accept our self with our shortcomings and talents will we be able to love and appreciate others. We always blame others for our misfortunes, we blame our parents, siblings, other family members, friends, teachers, co - workers, seniors. Lastly we blame our destiny and finally GOD. We forget that our thoughts and actions are the cause of our failures and misfortunes. Lack of self confidence makes one envious of others.
Stop the Blame Game Accept Reality!!
Beauty lies in loving yourself . Love your self and with confidence appreciate and accept others. See the beauty in other things around you.
A famous quote “Beauty lies in the eyes of the Beholder”!!

Responsibility


True meaning of responsibility is our 'Ability to Respond'. However, often we fail to see the impact of our actions on others. The series of responses we create in our interactions with other people & events is immeasurable. Some of these actions create a positive response whereas some create a negative response. These negative responses drain us of our energy. Learn to see connections between actions and results, causes and effects. That is the Law of Karma or Reciprocity.

Meditation

Meditation helps to live in the NOW, the PRESENT AND LEAD A STRESS FREE LIFE . It is a journey, an act of listening, keeping the mind still, feeling the emptiness in full awareness & finally to experience peace , bliss & joy.

Mind is most of the time restless, turbulent, rigid.
Frequently people find themselves bored, anxious, depressed, during the course of meditation. A whirpool of thoughts- wild ideas regarding the past, present and the unknown future haunt constantly making the mind stressed & undisciplined . The emotional attachment to these thoughts enhances negative emotions - anger, rage, frustration, depression & at times unnecessary worry. Contemplating on a single thought leads to series of thoughts bringing with it tremendous turmoil.
The best option is without exerting pressure on the mind, allow the thought, refrain from analyzing & let go of the thought.....In other words let the thought pass away. Be an observer … Every time the mind wanders into the forest of thoughts, return to the point of focus & continue.

Various methods to keep the mind in check during the course of meditation have been suggested ..
1). Focusing your eyes on a single point of light between the eyebrows.
2). Observing the rise & fall of your breath i.e. conscious breathing.
3). Reciting a mantra or sacred words in a focused manner.

As for me, the method I follow is divided into 7 steps.....
1).Sit cross legged on a mat or on a chair with the back straight.
2). Breathe deeply 10 times to steady the nerves & slower down the heart beats.
3).Recite your regular prayer followed by OM 3 times. Prayer steadies the mind & helps to focus.
4). Accept all the sounds around you one at a time.
5). Reflect in your mind that you are at peace, your entire body is at rest & tension free.
6). Centralize & focus on your third eye chakra ie the point between your eyebrows.
7).State of emptiness – Thoughtless Mind - BLISS.

Once you have reached this stage, you may find yourself smiling, full of love, compassion, joyful & happy. How long you wish to remain in this state is upto you to decide.
Tremendous effort & regular practice is necessary to master this stepwise method.
Practice each step & master it, no need to hurry. Initially, on an average it takes about half hour to settle down. But after regular practice, it takes about 10 min.
This method can be used throughout the day to help you remain peaceful, full of joy & happiness. Omit step 3 & forge within. It takes about 1 min.
GOOD LUCK!!!!

Talents

Every one is gifted with Talents. Inspite of that each is envious of another..
Why be jealous of somebody else’s talents??? Use your talents to the fullest.
Why imitate somebody and live in his/her shadow??? Be you...Be YOURSELF!!!
Each one wants to wear someone’s shoes to move ahead in life..
How is that possible??? You got to wear shoes that fit you best and charge ahead to meet the horizon…There is no limit to it…..
