In search of the peace of mind

           

“When you are searching for the peace of mind, let me remind you one thing that, there are a few things which are within us. Those few things can be achieved by seeing what is going on in our mind.”

       Human beings are the special creatures. They are fond of everything which cannot be seen. Things which are beyond our limits, have always been attracting our attention. How can we control our mind? By paying attention to every minute detail and by keeping the peace of mind at its best!

        Now, many of you would think that how can we achieve that peace of mind? It is very easy. Keep yourself connected to your mind. When you do so, you’d realize that you were very unaware about the depth of your mind. Be aware! Your mind has a lot to tell you. It has very much within it, which needs to be brought out. Talk to your mind. Analyze your thoughts. Realize the needs of your mind. Understand the importance of treating its ideas well.

        When you want to create something new, you have to have the peace of mind, which allows you to be consistent with your creativity. Where does this peace of mind reside? It resides within the purest form of mind. Detox your mind regularly. Keep the negativity aside. Remove the creepy things and people from your life. And now see, what happens! You would feel free. You would feel good! And this feeling gives you realization of having peace of mind. All the best! Have a great life ahead!

Live your dreams

Life is a game of hide and seek between happy and sad moments. We have to play a role of witness in this game. Happiness is like a key and sadness is the lock to the door of mesmerizing world of our dreams! When we insert the key of happiness in the lock of sadness, we get to enter the world of our dreams.

     Many people complain about things, which they don’t get in life. What do they lack? They lack the key of happiness. They go to the door of dreams with the same lock of sadness. Does lock have an ability to unlock? No. This is the work of key! You need to have a key to unlock the lock!

     Many times in life, we see that when something bad happens, we feel sad. The incidence keeps filling our life with sadness, and we add on the sadness by keeping the smile away from our lips. We need to understand one fact that our life’s purpose is to live the dreams we have in our eyes. To do so, we need to keep the key of happiness near us.

     Living dreams is not everyone’s cup of tea. It takes a lot efforts but moreover it takes a lot of optimism too. It’s not easy to feel positive always. For this, you have to ignore many negative things in life and only have to focus on positive things. When you decide to be happy, you feel positive and once you feel positive, you take a step further in the journey of living your dreams. With a negative mind, you can never achieve happiness. Keep your mind positive and enjoy the happy moments of your life. To be able to dream is a blessing, we humans have got from life. Take a step further and gather all the courage you have to live your dreams. 
What you need to do?
Behave the way you want your life to be. Live the life as you'd live when your dreams would come true. Law of attraction does the wonders! Never dream about happy life! Live your dream daily! 

Avoid selfishness in life

Our mind is very speedy. It cannot be controlled easily. This fact was well known by Samartha Ramdas Swami. So, in his ninth Shloka, he tries to explain that we need to control that speedy mind and need to let it travel from being selfish to understanding the self. This journey is difficult because our mind easily gets attracted to the worldly desires which cause selfishness. When we get attracted to selfishness, we forget to value our “self”. 

    Self is Aatman! It is not about our body, it is our soul. Our soul is non-destroyable. It is continuous. But when would we understand this? We would understand this when we let go of our selfishness. Why would we do so? Because, selfishness causes damage to our “self”. When worldly desires try to equip our life, we run behind fulfilling them. When we couldn’t fulfill them, we feel bad and sorrow surrounds us from all the sides. 

    When we are in sorrow, we tend to take bad decisions. When we keep the worldly desires and selfishness aside, we get connected to the self and we find the real and pure happiness there. We get connected to Aatman that is the divinity. We understand that worldly desires give happiness for certain time but the path of divinity is the permanent happiness. Many a times people expect that they would get something from the property of their ancestors. But this kind of property and possession never lasts longer. 

    Samartha asks everyone to leave this expectation aside to stay away from sins.  When we keep desires and they don’t get fulfilled then there would be only one thing that is going to happen, you would be surrounded by sadness. To avoid this, Samartha is warning the mind to stay away from selfish desires.

Politeness: A key to achieve peace of mind

We live in the world where many people of different natures live. We often get confused between their true nature and the masks they wear. Today, we will talk about bringing change in our perspectives and not changing the whole world. I feel that is easier than changing the whole world. We often overthink about the behavior of the people and their views about us. We fail to recognize the fact that we cannot take care of their views and we need to do it about our own. Now you will say, if we are not getting how to react to the people we interact with then, what should we do? We cannot ignore their weird behavior as we have to deal with them daily. Then don’t worry, we have a solution for this too. Today, we are going to discuss about how to be polite not for the people around you, but for your peace of mind.

How can we achieve this?

We can achieve this by practicing this, it is as simple as that. Politeness is not an easy thing to follow. But if you don’t, you would have to face chaos and it could affect your peace of mind. When you behave in a polite way, you realize that you are not only being polite to the people around you but to your mind also. When you feed your mind with unnecessary things, you actually harm it. We can achieve politeness through polite words and actions. We can take some time, before reacting on anything in life. We can take time and then react so that we get to think about which is the best possible polite way to react.

Benefits of being polite

•          You get more loving people around you
•          You attract more love by being polite
•          Politeness is an asset of the popular personality
•          You minimize your problems, when you act politely
•          Polite people always win hearts!

It’s all about attitude

A person is made up not only of flesh, blood and bones. He is all about the personality which he carries. Personality of any person is made up of the attitude which he has for everything around him. You may feel that how has attitude been formed? There are a lot of things that contribute in the formation of attitude. But mainly there are three components and those are cognitive, effective and behavioral.

    These aspects contribute a lot in the development of our attitude. Our experiences and social factors are also important when we talk about attitude development. What we see around us has a lot of impact on our attitude. Because, what we see helps us forming an opinion about it. These opinions form the base of our attitude. There are two types of attitudes, one is implicit and other is explicit. Implicit is unconscious while explicit is the conscious one.

    Many a times we hear people saying that XYZ person has positive or negative attitude. What makes them thinks so? Every person has an aura and when people meet each other, they can easily identify the positive or negative factor of that aura. They also have some or the other experience of meeting people and hence they can easily figure out the attitude of people. While living in society, we form different opinions, which help to form our attitude. Despite of having bad surroundings, we need to develop positive attitude. It makes us grow as a person. It is the core of positive and happy life.

Age is just a number!

                     

I often wonder how we human beings think from the day we become capable of thinking? When we were children, we used to think that it would be so great if we grow up, we would get to live according to our wishes but when we actually grow up, we think about others. We think about what would people say if we follow our heart? We are so much into thoughts that we don' t get to do what we should or what we wish for. We think about our age a lot.
     We often have heard a lot about being politically correct by keeping our age in mind. When we cross our certain age, we become more concerned about what we've gained in life. Why do we think this much about our growing age? Because we're somehow habitual about thinking or measuring our success in accordance with our age. But is it really so? Not at all.
    Today we're going to talk about being acceptable about our growing age. We often hear that at this age, it's not possible now to work or it's not possible to start your own business. But this is the truth, when we accept the fact that we can't! And this is the biggest threat to our growth. Feeling young is the key to be forever young. But in fact accepting yourself at every stage of your life, is the key to be comfortable with yourself. There is nothing which can stop you and if it is so, then do you think that your age could be a barrier?? Have a successful and happy aging!
