Healing Inner Self

Everyone wants motivation, everyone wants to be positive, everyone wants everything, but how many give all this back???

Ever thought of giving someone the motivation you once needed?? Help to get out of negativity and entering positivity??

That’s not the jobs of saints alone (no one is born a saint).

For a minute if we stop thinking about ourselves and just give a small look to someone else then we can muster the courage to help others.

Help is often misunderstood as requirement of money, loan, or something physical requirement.

Most of the times its just the time they need, time to listen, time to sit with them without speaking anything just sharing your positive aura…

We all have become so selfish and self-involved, we all need growth, money, luxury, serenity, peace, happiness.

But what is the best form of happiness? What is the one thing that gets us immense joy?

Living the moment? Well true but also teaching someone else to do the same, when we see others grow in this we light up and this brings us more joy than building full of money.

So then let us all take an oath to help others by offering time, share our positive aura and help people in spiritual way (not by taking them to holy places) by taking them within themselves where I believe god resides.

Let us all find god in ourselves, seek the spirit and activate it, help it sync with us externally as well.

I also believe that once this sync occurs all else will become super clear and everything will fall its place eventually.

We already have gone far away from nature creating barriers between us (rubber slippers and minimal interaction) lets try to get closer to ourselves and make our inner spirit rise and show us the path we were supposed to go to.

Let us all take an oath to do this from this very moment. Please Stand up, place your right hand on your chest – close to your heart, and say this out loud.

“I (your name) promise to give my inner self time and help it grow from this very moment until my last breath, every time I fail to do this, I will punish myself to do something that I always wanted to do and never considered. This is my oath, my promise to myself which I will keep and follow diligently”.

 Thank you so much

Woman...Unchained...

A Woman,

What do we Men know about Women?

We know for sure how to dominate them, don’t we?

But can we take a minute to think, what have we done with them?

Before we begin with anything, I have to create a link between 2 entities. (This is completely the ideas and views about Women by me, so if you get offended please stop reading).

Woman	Creator
1.       Motherly Instincts	1.       Parental instincts – always gives what we ask and takes care of us.
2.       Gives birth to another human by the most painful process the humankind has ever known.	2.       Created the world and everyone in it.
3.       Heavy Mental strength, Patience and tolerance.	3.       Always observing
4.       Bleeds at least 500 ml blood per month

There is a similarity here,

If our true creator could create and this gift was passed onto a Woman, then how on earth did they become inferior to us?

If they can handle pain much more than what we can handle (if we bleed 500 ml over a week how would we be?), how did they become the weaker species?

I feel this was known to our ancestors and hence started keeping them (Women) and their powers suppressed so that they don’t outceed us. If you check out the ways we have imprisoned them or suppressed them:

• 1.       Before anything, we kill them in the womb itself, so they don’t step into this world.
• 2.       We feed them lesser compared to the other gender, weakening them physically for our advantage in the future.
• 3.       We prove that they are dirty during their periods making them conscious and staying at home during this feeling ashamed for a process which God made them that way.
• 4.       We force them to marry a good man, who can take care of them – this we inject it through all movies, older generation and live movies at home.
• 5.       After Marriage, we show it that their family isn’t important to them anymore and husband’s family is everything for them. We steal their power of freedom by chaining them into a new location
• 6.       Objects Women have to wear after marriage – Chain on their neck, Bangles on wrist & Toe rings / Anklets etc. Observing carefully even prisoners undergo the same chaining system. Co-incidence??
• 7.       We show that Men need to be served by Women and for them their Man is their God. So even if beaten will accept, Even if tortured will tolerate, Even if treated as a tool will withstand.
• 8.       They have been taught to take care of Men since the beginning. Cooking for them, washing their clothes, pleasing them, entertaining them, making them dependent by stating that they cant work.

Why did these come into existence? Why did we steal their rights? What were we scared of? Questions I didn’t find answers to.

But I know that the times are changing and we will most surely get to see the hidden talents and the potentials they will shower on this world. Hopefully they wont fall prey to any more strategies we Men have made to stop them from unleashing their true potential. And for all we know they may finally save this world from ending.

Life... Uncomplicating it...

Complicated path??

Picture from - www.freeimages.com

Life is complicated.….
Is the above statement true? 

We make it complicated…. Or is this true? 

Well I have complicated my life uncomplicated it….again complicated and uncomplicated it…. So I know for sure…. That we human, we people, we homo-sapiens complicate life.

How do we complicate life? Isn't it very simple? 

Life is actually very very simple… but if everything becomes too simple then people cant make money, people wont get power, people wont be able to show how they are better. Hence they try to complicate it for their pleasure and benefit and we fall into it blindly maybe because of ancestors belief or maybe because of peer pressure. 

• May it be education where we learn to adapt to a complicated lifestyle.
• May it be religion where we believe that our god is the best and our methods are the right path.
• May it be our tradition which we follow whose actual reason is unknown and hence blindly followed as a strict rule.

Every single step has complications….with so many chains how do you free yourself? 

With all these restrictions how do you dream free? Even your dreams are restricted now a days… 

Can you tell the difference between dreams when you dreamt as kids and your dreams now? You will find your answers as to whether you are succumbed to the complications or not…

Who knows the right method to live life? Sages? priests? Kings?…am sure no one does….no one is back from the dead….and even if reincarnated they don't remember anything about the time when there were dead and if anyone told them the secret of living life…. 

So how then do we live? How then do we uncomplicate ourselves? 

Well I follow a method, a couple of them actually: 

1. Follow your heart no matter what (with the exception if its in a hurt state, then just give it time…it heals very soon….just a little time).

2. Never ever kill the child in you….each and every thing around you wants you to kill the child and become an adult….but what is an 'adult'….just another word for complication…so never let the child die….its the only thing that's innocent, dreams from the heart, and eager to keep moving ahead… 

3. Make a Happiness recipe:- take lots of passion mix it with your dreams nicely until they become a dough, add a pinch of plan and leave it for sometime. Then roll out one portion and try to execute… if failed then take another portion and try….do this until atleast one becomes good enough to be fried and eaten…

Trust me when I say this: the meal that you eat from the above successful recipe will be the best meal of your life and once tasted you will become addicted to taste more and more of it.. 

So there you go…. Hope this helps…just thought of sharing whats in my mind….

Thank you for reading…

Satan's Key

I met this awesome gentleman from Hyderabad and had a mind blowing conversation with him. Just a 30-40 mins of talk felt like billion hours of wisdom inflow. I will never forget the day "17-01-19" which has made my new year resolution simple and sturdy. I will let you know my resolution, but first let me share what I obtained from the conversation.

How do we obtain peace? Serenity? Eternal patience and the ability to remain unbelievably calm?
Lot of us try different things, go different ways, basically experiment and learn but hardly a handful get lucky.

Lets take me for example, in search of peace I did try a lot of things, finally very few helped me get peace but I have successfully learnt to be happy, so I do reciprocate happiness for peace. But what I did, learnt and implemented also had simpler methods. But the secret again holds that - " it only gets simpler when you fall down or fail a lot, until then it's just a wise saying that no one follows".
Just like success is actually understood best when you fail a lot.

What is this simpler method that I spoke about?
Before we answer that, lets try to understand what role our mind has in our existence.

What do you think is the role of our mind? Does it channel our thoughts in the right direction?
Does it help us move on towards positivity? Peace?
What does it actually do?

Our mind plays games, tries and always succeeds in making sure we don't live the moment. I'm sure lot of you have different opinions and may disagree with me. Just read it out and see if this helps, if it doesn't, you are always welcome to share your thoughts in the comment section.

Have these things ever happened to you?

1. You are having an awesome time and suddenly something sad that had happened years ago, comes back in a flash and gets you low?

2. You try to concentrate on something important and failed?

3. You want to do something good but you end up listening to your mind, which scares you of a lot of things like especially its most favourite - "what would others think?"

So in conclusion our mind diverts, plays, tricks, and do everything just to get off our focus from the present. We have always, always tried to think and be sad about the past, think and be worried about the future, but never stopped to think and try to live the day.

So the primary source of all solution lies in understanding the right problem. Here the problem is that our minds are smart and they trick our ways to take over our selves. We have become our mind and we have to change that.

How do we do that?
Firstly, let me tell you that no one has won a fight against the mind. So how then do we win?

Once our mind gets the idea that we are planning against it, it takes it up as a challenge and outsmarts us. So just play along and listen to all it has to say and do respond positively to its suggestions but do what you actually want to do and then convince the mind that it was an error or in some other ways you deem suitable.

You can't delete your mind, neither can you replace it, but you can most definitely format it one step at a time. Slowly taking its powers away and letting it follow your ways. Because if you can direct your mind either by tricking it or by commanding it, then there is nothing in this world that can stop peace from knocking and entering your door step.

Finally, the simpler method I spoke about is "trick your mind to do what you want". That's it. It is actually a really difficult task but yet again the easiest task to do. For those who have failed in life and know the value of success it's easier than those who have stayed in their comfort zone forever.

So go ahead people stop following the mind and start playing with it. Not from tomorrow, not from next month, but from today and from now. Because if it's not now then when else?, If it's not you then who else?

My resolution for this year is to use the Satan's key i.e "trick the mind to do what I want" which will help me lock the Satan away.

All the best and let me know what worked so we can help more and more people attain peace.

What a Dream!!!

As I walked down the road, I saw something unusual, something very different than the everyday encounter. There was a pretty bird with uneven wings, one wing lengthier than the other; at first I went closer to understand what it does with this uneven length or pretty odd feature, As I approached closer and closer, I saw something funny and leaked out a ‘HA” from my mouth.

The bird was trying to fly & fell multiple times as the navigation was tough to control or stabilize. But then after a few minutes & probably 10 “HA’s” I was amazed. It tried for sometime, fell a lot of times and finally covered its entire body with its longest wing. Stood still for sometime, felt like it needed the warmth to console itself, to gather itself, measuring its ability, re-building its confidence and waiting for the steam to build up slowly up to the brim.

Once it was ready, it flung into the air – using the longest wing to propel itself into thin air, making it shoot like a rocket in a spiral motion. This sight was very pleasing to see, as the bird flew spirally into the air the colourful feathers blended with the surrounding making it look like a tracer in the sky – a beauty just mind-blowing to watch.

How the bird understood itself, its strengths, taking time to know itself, analyse its uneven growth or weird nature and then move with a confidence that makes the entire mankind look like a bunch of cowards.

I was so taken back and amazed that I ended up clapping loudly with joy and respect, unfortunately to my luck the sound of my clap reached the ear of the bird and it targeted me as though I’m its personal bull’s-eye, flew right towards me with an impactful intension, came closer to me, stopped just as it's beak reached my ear and it whispered “ I am ‘YOU’; just stop dreaming and take the leap”, saying this it slapped me really hard on my right cheek & I wake up staring at my sister trying to wake me up from a very long deep sleep.

A day @ the Paradise

A day @ the Paradise

I wake up and walk, I see a beautiful place, a place where I want to be, and a place where I see a lot of peace.

As I walk towards the light I find a lot of things lying around, I think to myself “Why this mess, why the stress; everything around is so beautiful, but my aura has lost its charm and gotten less meaningful?”

So I sit down in my dear dump yard, and try to sort things out. Make things look good and enjoy peace at the place I want. One by one I take things out, Create boxes and become the judge, sentence one by one whether the things from the dump yard is required or is to be destroyed.

It’s a task, a huge one, takes a long time, but has to be done.

My first object is Emotion, I take it and try judging it – “Why have I stored them here? Why have I bottled them up?”

I can see anger boiling up, waiting to be let out for destruction;

I can see sadness stored up waiting for recognition, craving to be shared, and screaming in pain;

I can see happiness which was hidden or left within without expressing, which has lost its excitement and thus losing its value;

I can see some feelings have become depressed, the need to be felt, the need to be close to someone and yet not disclosed.

It got me down, way down, thinking what can be done, how it can be done and how things can be back? Or should I just put it in “to be destroyed” box?

Judging is tough, mighty tough. So I pend it and keep it in “Work in Progress (WIP)” box.

My Second Object – Acknowledgement or Self-Appraisal – “What does this mean?” I plan on a lot of things, I plan on what I need (May-be now, or for the future), I work on my plan, but one thing I have always, always missed is to tell myself what a good job I have done – whenever it was successful or that I have tried and learnt whenever it is not. I pray to god to give me something – but when he has given abundantly, I have never really gone back thanking him for the blessings given, this is because I forget my previous prayer and have a new prayer / new need which am eager for.

This needs work – I have to sit and think of my accomplishments and then pat my back – so I decide let it be in “WIP” box.

My third object – Dreams – all my stored up dreams with less courage and confidence to pursue them are being stolen one by one. It’s passing on to others who have it in them to go forward and pursue them. They are tired of staying and it has created a hole in that zone, making the new dreams easy to escape. How do I work on this? How do I patch this up? NO IDEA. For now let me put it in “WIP” Box.

My Fourth Object – Internal suffering – How I want everyone else to be happy but myself, sacrifice for others – this should make me happier but it ends up saddening me? Because the more I try to keep everyone happy, I end up creating a confusion and everything goes haywire. I want to be happy to make others happy, but this is the only extent of my knowledge or analysis – how to do it I have no idea. So “WIP” is where I dump this.

Here I end my day and I see that the beauty which was in front of me (the place I wanted to be) has moved on and all I did the whole day was trying to sort things out. There was a little content that at least I have done something today, and that tomorrow is another day, which will help me go to the beautiful place as I have sorted the mess within. So I sleep with joy and hope for tomorrow.

The next day I get up early, fresh, and excited. Jump up from my bed and run towards the Beautiful place. I run looking forward, and trip and fall down, I get up and look around, all the mess back in its place. A small tear forms in my eye, and slowly runs down my cheek, all my hard work, all my hopes crushing within. I go to find the source of the mess and I see that there was always a hole, a big, a wide hole in “WIP” where I kept throwing the things into.

I look at the beautiful place and feel another tear rolling down, just staring at the place I want to be, just wanting to be at the place of peace.

Creativity vs Technology

Hi Guys,

Hope you are doing well,

I was walking down the empty lanes near my house and there was a moment of a flash-back episode from my childhood. This was my motivation in writing or rather selecting this topic.

Before we jump straight into the topic, let’s understand the meaning of the terms individually.

Light Bulb

Creativity – The Oxford dictionary defines this as – “the use of imagination or original ideas to create something, inventiveness”

My Understanding – Creating something new, anything, without tagging it as good / bad, useful/ useless, profitable/loss.

Technology Gods

Technology - The Oxford dictionary defines this as – “the application of scientific knowledge for practical purposes.

My Understanding – Study of Techniques & using new tools to make life easier.

Everyone has a spark that hits them or as shown in olden cartoon a light bulb that powers up, this is an idea that needs to be worked on, needs to be tried on, failed and tried again and then go 100% on it. But that is slowly diminishing is what I feel, it’s not because the spark has stopped, but because people have started hesitating to own it up or even give it a try.

Before technology came into this world we were awesome, pushing brain to the maximum, and the results were astonishing (can say that because we created this so called technology :) itself). Later when it slowly picked up, the ratio of tech vs creativity was 10:90 and slowly it has changed over time. I guess now we can say that the ratio is somewhere 80:20, where creativity is narrowed down to better the technology in place and not think of anything else.

Look around and observe, all are on their mobile phones, children exposed to so called “technology” in a very early stages, we have sunk in or gone in depth to this technology, that we don’t have time to think or act on a new spark. When we are free we use mobile phones, when we are busy we are busy with either mobile/laptop/tv/gaming tech etc.

Gone are the days when kids used to be out and play all their childhood, May it be cricket/football or any innovative games they make up in their time. They used to work on their sparks and make it happen, this used to be helpful in many ways (boosts up their confidence, makes them feel proud, brings their self-esteem to where it belongs). Now they call it the e-era (internet era) where kids are playing football/criket etc on their game pads and in a virtual set up, why meet and greet when u can do that all online – is the new funda.

We are moving ahead in technology no doubt, but we are successfully covering the fact that we are moving backwards in creativity and innovation. It's something like the immunity system or the physical strength that has stayed in the olden era and slowly diminished over time, where one could survive major problems and now even for a mosquito bite we need help. Some may argue to the fact that we have severe diseases compared to earlier times, but again how did they come in place? - Lethargy, true because we invent things to make life easier and have to face consequences - anything easy has its side-effects.

Things that we are not able to cope :-

1. Childhood :-

Learning to be dependent on technology, having low confidence - to the extent that if something fails we think of suicide, Everything made so easy - no need to use our brain / think, need a new idea - Google it, need some info - Google it, need suggestion regarding what to wear - Google it, and if Google says it’s impossible then its Final!!!

Technology has taken over our minds and we are blind to accept and change. In fact, we may even go and ask Google this question :D.

These times are supposed to be the best times - Utilise childhood efficiently and the future is set. But learning to be dependant makes things a little difficult. Purpose is changed to smaller things - materialistic things and that doesn’t help build personality.

We are what we teach and future observes us and they change accordingly, So what do you want to do :)

       2. Parenting: -

Quality Time

Raising children to be self dependent individuals, so they can take care of themselves is not the concept anymore, at least that’s what i feel. Now-a-days it’s more like make more money and you will survive (and if it doesn’t work out - eternal depression). We forget the fact that Money is not the key to happiness and teach that Money = Happiness, by the time we realize that Money was just a waste of time we’ll all be old and close to death beds (no doubt money is important, but its not equal to happiness, less fortunate people are more happy)

How do we make our children happy? In earlier days just a simple hug, kiss and family picnic would make them happy and leap with joy. But now we are so busy to do that, so  give them something, some new toy to get busy with and stop disturbing us, parents. once done with a toy give them an advanced one to get dependent to, no need to be around them coz we are so busy making money.

We make our children to think like us, 'Work hard, spend less time with family is a small sacrifice to make more money, as money is more important, and to make anyone happy materialism is the key'.

It has become tough for the parents of the e-era; what to give what not to, do we let them watch TV? if so which movies are not adulterated. Do we give them Mobile phones? If So at what age? when is the best time to sacrifice our children to the technology gods?

      3. Love : -

Bonding of 2 hearts....

Love is a waste of time - as said in one of the movies, No more Falling in Love, No more the eyes crossing, the heart’s beating, the nights in thoughts of the beloved ones, now-a-days its fast, you love someone - immediately tell it to the one, application accepted - loafed around for few hours and break-up the same day.

How can we expect things to go longer when we don’t have that level of patience, or tolerance? We want everything at the tip of our fingers, be it food (instant mix), be it money (work from home), or anything, that we expect the same for Love.

Love now-a-days expires fast coz its validity is also depreciating - one of the side effects of Technology Gods.

     4. Respect :-

Not With Fear...

Earlier respect was for the age, the older a person we respected them more. Now the richer the person, the more respect they earn. And while they are rich they get influential people along and get more respect not earn them.

No Need to work hard to earn respect. Get money and respect follows - but what we forget is that its not a good respect but a negative respect follows, where people respect out of fear and always curse them and wish them bad.

All easy things come with a costly price.

Respect has lost its meaning, and it also has been dying. We value goods more than people - earlier we cared for people and used the goods, now we care for goods and use people.

We not only use them but also leave them stranded.

Change in Thinking Style

Let's take our whole world as one big computer, we all for the hardware and the software for this, upgrading ourselves faster and faster.

What happens when a virus hits this computer?

• It slows the world down,
• It Corrupts files,
• It pops a lot of errors,
• It takes up a lot of space and memory goes down,
• Finally crashes and dies.

For a Computer we can buy a brand new one - doesn’t really cost much or rather we can put a price on it. But what about our world?

• Can we really afford a new world?
• Can we put a price on it?
• Can we create a new World?
• Is Technology a Boon or a just sugar coated Virus?

Future in its making

Creativity Vs Technology - Conclusion

I guess it is safe to conclude that Creativity and Technology are inversely proportional to each other - which means that if Creativity increases, Technology reduces and Vice Versa.

What if we all decide to go Loco on Technology and give it a break?

What if we show it to Technology that we are more stronger than it?

What if we show it to our future that we can do it?

What happens then?

Well I love the dialogue from the movie PK - In the end When all is revealed, a sage says - We are indeed God Fearing people not God Loving and will return to the usual no matter how much fog / mist we clear up.

Just like that we have become Tech fearing people, we wont know what to do if we dont have one.

So then What is a Solution? What can be done? No Idea. All we can do is try and Travel the world, go to new places as Wisdom doesn’t come to us while we wait in one place. 

It is indeed when we travel that we achieve wisdom.

Just something to think on…

Let’s be the change we want around us :)

Thank you people, please feel free to leave any comments/ share your views :)
