In life if you want satisfaction, then you need an ice factory in the brain, a sweet factory in the mouth and a compassion factory in the heart (Read this is one of the articles from a leading spiritual leader)...

We often associate dark phases of our life to ill luck or blame it on circumstances or blame it on the limitations that we have created for ourselves or more convincingly on people, we fail to realise it is the reaction of our action and the reason why there is a reaction is for us to learn how the experiment of our action progressed. Is it not true that only in the darkness do we witness the magnificence of creativity of this universe ??? Every single one of us have awed at the stars wondered what their size should be , have tried our best to get a closer look at the moon and the shapes found on the surface of the moon... So does it mean that darkness brings out the creativity in us! Can we imagine seeing the burning hot sun with our naked eyes?? Answer is no! and yet we believe that sun is more superior for the simple fact it allows us to see matters of life around us that includes commotion, jealousy,materialism etc etc.

While sun gives us an opportunity to experience the cruelty of it's heat waves and feel the energy getting lost, moon ensures soothing of emotions and ensuring dreaming session continues.
What i have realised in my years of life is the greatest asset to have by your side is "content", end of the day all we need is to satisfy our basic needs which is nothing more than food and shelter, someone (Mother, Wife) to love, someone (Father, Brother) to care for... These are the basic rules imagine having all the pleasures in the world and not having someone to care for and someone to love for , we would be nothing more than empty vessel. Because people stock with for your wealth only when young .

Feiry lookback.!?!

On a beautiful monsoon evening when the rains have left the city paralyzed, thoughts provoked me to look back and this was due to the pensive mood and chilling wind. Looking back at my years and the past few weeks in my old new office there was something very clear and that is, life is all about making choices... right from sipping a coffee and relishing the aroma of the bean once off from the bed early in the morning to choosing a mindset in approaching aspects of life (Includes food, clothing, travel and the biggest factor friends) .

There used to be times when i wondered what was less in me and i chose to make mistakes thinking i will beat the odds, guess what was the outcome rejection and agony and i prolonged this agony for a brief period, not that i wanted to! But i was wanting to challenge the way world works. I met quite a few interesting people in the past few weeks and i learnt that days of looking at a person by heart is gone by. Today people ply around with a simple thought that (I need to be safe) , definition of concern has become need basis people like u or don't like u is on the same principal. I would not say it is hatred rather it's a choice!!

After the learning that i have had during the past three years of which i have been mentioning in the last few posts, the outcome is simple never hate, never regret from expressing what's on your mind and not to give a false picture about a situation or perspective.The world that we today live in is based on not long lasting relationships, exceptions are there everywhere... Being dignified and carrying oneself on his/her shoulder is wrongly understood to carrying an attitude or an ego, anything that comes in between this line witnesses devastating consequences.

Am happy that am in the process of learning to make myself a better person. Life is once and prefer living it in a manner where i have not hurt anyone, where i have shut my eyes on injustice, where i have not put my hand for the needy (because everyone deserves to lead a (happy) life). People think this attitude is not aggressive enough to be a successful manager.

I face fear by confronting it because whenever i tried to hide my self because of fear or tried to avoid it ,it always came back to hit me badly, so i started facing it by standing in front of it like a dam which can halt the speed of gushing water and act as a reservoir as well. Fear is nothing but your perception to see the world around you.

All philosophy lies in two words, sustain and abstain.

First learn the meaning of what you say, and then speak. All religions must be tolerated… for every man must get to heaven in his own way. Freedom is the right to live as we wish.
it’s not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters.Freedom is not procured by a full enjoyment of what is desired, but by controlling the desire. Is freedom anything else than the right to live as we wish? Try Answering..

Breaking the Jinxxx

Breaking the Jinx as the title suggests is often a process that needs to be done within ourselves, rather than blaming the events happening around us on someonelse!!

I have been through so much in the last two years and i trust and am confident in proclaiming it's been for good... There were days when i felt i need to satisfy the crowd around me and hence it was primarily important to carry different versions of my face as the situation demands, there have been times when i wanted to express, when i wanted to pen down, when i felt things were not right for me, when i wanted to beat the hell out, when i wanted to feel... Inspite of all these signs i took the gamble of keeping my fake social status alive by doing and saying things that as a matter of fact created a negative energy around me.

When i say negative energy it means not thinking or acting in the way i should have or rather not acting in one's own calling. What i learnt is you can avoid anything and everything that is not for the good or that would expose you on the wrong side of yourself! Imagine yourself standing infront of the mirror and dont actually look at yourself as a form as in the form (nose, hair style, weight, structure, beautiful, ugly etc etc) , instead try and understand you are nothing but a mass of energy and you would realise in a deep manner that what you see in the mirror is a mere vaccum of bubbles.

Its taken me time, in today's world we chase material possession , and in the process we salvage many aspects around us (people, deeds, trust) however we forget rolling stone gathers no mass. It will be just a matter of time when we need to leave this place not knowing whether or not we will be back again and if yes what form????

Pain Versus Pleasure

I have been away from posting for a while due to personal commitments.This particular post is all about what i feel life is and wat i trust is the right way to look at

We'll have been through times that are testing isn't it? Let me ask you somethin ! Answer this to yourself How many of us have had the perseverance to stand out during these times?

Losing your faith on trust because someone whom you trusted chose to show the wrong door

Tussle with a loved one

Misunderstanding with partners (Wife, husband, friends etc etc)

Unable to make ends meet

Social pressure

Times where decisions those with varied interests of your dreams need to be made

If your answer is yes, am so delighted for you, that you know the meaning of withstanding.

But for those who feel deep down inside their heart that they have tried but... Life is nothing but a simple yet very complicated subject to come terms with. All through my life till date there has always been lessons that i have learnt, however i have never really managed to bring them into real life especially because of my comfort level with my past or rather it would be apt to claim that challenges that i might have to overcome in the unexplored path was a barricade and held me back !!!

Comparing Life with a Chariot

The Chariot, in its simplest terms, represents a vehicle, and one that you are in charge of steering – your life is the vehicle and it is your choices and decisions that steer you in either the right or wrong direction.

Life always often represents challenges or difficulties that you must work through or around, but with courage and determination the outcome is often victory.

It often represents an existing struggle, one you have been battling with for a while.
Whatever the specific challenge or obstacle may be, you can get over it if you find the drive and determination to do so,

Never ever in life, don't quit or give up. As hard as the battle may seem at times, if you persevere, you can and will succeed. It is important to accept and understand that sometimes we need to change course or direction in order to achieve our goals and ambitions. If something isn't happening, however hard you try, perhaps you simply need to change tactics to get results.

It is utmost important to understand that ambition and determination should never turn to arrogance and pride. It is not about bullying your way through life. Don't just allow your ego to get in the way.

There are 2 sets of people in this world one chasing pleasure and one running away from pain...

People chasing pleasure tend to overlook the reality and are happy crushing others in their march to achieve pleasure. But people running from pain develop the significance of "Hope",hope allows them to be on their feet and follow their dreams.

As always what you wanna do is in your hands and how you wanna react in every single situation is completely on you and depends what outcome we anticipate at the end of the drama (trauma).

Things Change in Life

Being a Back bencher is not as easy as it sounds... I was one among them LoL

"When the Whole world sleeps,

The wise man remains awake

When the world is awake

It is night for the saint" (Not For guys in Call Centres especially the Graveyard Shift Goers)

So sayeth Bhagavad Gita in Chapter II Sankya Yoga, hence back bencher is an "Enlightened One or a Gnani"

When the whole class is pretending to listen to the dull and drab lecture,the back bencher is lost in his own world,there he dreams and dreams, to me dreaming is a powerful tool for it ignites the fire inside you and the rush in adrenaline to explore the impossible (I should warn you, it is as i said only when followed appropriately).

Seated in the last row, the back bencher sees the variant moods of nature through the window.The window is his pseudo eyes through which he beholds the world.This worldly experience is denied to the front benchers.Most of the world's achievers were back benchers- Winston Churchill, Mahatma Gandhi, Albert Einstein and our very own Shrinivasa Ramanujam (Lost in his own world of numbers)

To be successful it is jus not enough to be bookish ! It's how one interprets life and it's unique signs.

Sun does set to be rising high and bright the following day,so is every situation it's an experience and this can be relished only by those who are willing to be patient... You know wat i mean if you are going through a bad patch, it does not mean chances of seeing light are minimal... It's lifes way of telling us there are better things in store!! In a way when someone uses the word bullshit, i often consider that the person on whom it is being used is the one who has had an impact by his actions .. Guess Why ??? imagine what does a perfume do (lets take Michel Germain ) it keeps you smelling good for a defined period of time,however as time fades you end up smelling sweat with scent, on the contrary bullshit stinks right from the beginning but the end result is far too rewarding it acts as a disinfectant , can be used to produce fire which in turn can be used to cook which translates into satisfying the human being so on & on

Leave every person you meet better than you found them. Life's too short to withhold encouragement and kindness

Do what's right rather than what's easy. Being a great person is not a popularity contest. Many of the greatest leaders were disliked because they refused to bend to the winds of public opinion. That is called Strength of Character

Carry a kid’s heart – For Example :- Have you ever met any kid while travelling in busy traffic or while passing by a school or at-least in a social gathering? Take a moment to notice them without their knowledge, you will be surprised to see that they make friends very easily. At the same time I would urge you’ll to think if we say “hello” to the next person standing in the lift whom we have never met before ? That’s the difference as we grow we start building Ego within us and ultimately we make things difficult for ourselves

What's the point in being busy doing the wrong things

Remember that life is a mirror and we receive what we give out. To get more joy, give more joy. To have more respect, give more respect. To realize your dreams, help others realize theirs

I read a lot and for strange reasons i try to understand the inner meaning of life, i sincerely regret if i have hurt anyone's feelings

Wat failures can do

To those who take time to read my postings i thank you for your time... I would want to ensure i reach to that society where people have forgotten the word dreaming .

Am a big dreamer myself, trust me! When i was 4 years old , my dad used to take my mom and myself to the airport nearby in his bike (Yezdi) and he would make me stand on the wall for me to witness the take off and landing of flights i wanted to be a pilot then, because i was excited and thrilled about the wings, the wheels, the noise etc etc.. Isn't that somethin that we are more accustomed to ?? When we encounter a situation in life where we realise success and fame are in throwing distance the expressions and the noise inside us (Outwardly as well many a times) gives us a thrust and when this happens there is excitement and the result is far more than desired more often than not...

Each one of us do dream and aspire for a life that is full of richness (By all means). "Money is not everything but there is nothing without it (Except for love, incidentally that's a commodity rather a commercial aspect in modern day). Man sure did make needs, today needs are making nope defining mankind. Practically women children were considered to be a burden two decades ago that too with the invention of scanning mom's were capable of taking a closer look at their womb !!!!decision was abortion. Two decades later today there is a shortage of women for eligible bachelors. But i wonder where do people end up hooking a second marriage???

To be continued....

When Man Misunderstands Religion

Religion is not the by-product of Almighty. Those were the inventions of our forefathers to instill fear in men to add to the human values (We hardly see any nowadays) and to have society which has a following . Those were the men who practised their religion within the four walls of their home. In short it was a means adopted so that we adhere to live a life of Values...

Decades ago, religion was based on profession, that is , one practising vedas was called a "Brahman", one who was into business was a "Vaishya" but the future generation (Including you and me) misunderstood it. Our forefathers preached that religion was a path to the common goal, which is peace, prosperity, unity - Ideally they meant "Live and Let Live" 

In the present world we see many people of different religions, Christians, Hindus, Muslims,Sikhs,Jains,Buddhists,Parsis, Jews etc ... True , each religion has a god with a lot of myths,  stories , and each caste or community have given a form which is now a medium for human nature through which we see god... Ultimately we fail to realise god is an energy , i agree and am humbled by his creations and i am not here to test his abilities.

We see and hear about so many ethnic wars & group clashes. All this in the name of religion, God has never told anyone to fight for him (I guess we are misled in India because of the wars in "Ramayan & Mahabharath") But man needs an excuse to show his hot blooded valour. He goes about killing people from other caste for reasons which are beyond humanly nature like breaking a statue . An insult to an individual is blown out of proportion that it finally leads to a communal riot ... It's scary isn't it.

Now , we Indians are facing a communal crisis. Islam fundamentalism, Hindu rejuvenism and Christian conservatism are breaching the nation leading to communalism.

Answer yourself when we go to a place of worship (Temple, Church, Mosque, Gurudwara) prayers for us have always been "Bring prosperity to me" "Do this for me and in return i will pay you back - Bargaining". We have forgotten the basics that we should be doing conversations with god and not bargaining.

The future of this wonderful country and this beautiful earth lies in Our hands and we have the responsibility of protecting this Human race. 

Note:- I have not intented to hurt anybody's feelings, my point was to ensure future India is not demolished rather i wish we build a stronger India..
