What does Sakha means and why I call myself as Sakha?

Dear friends if you must have read my personal opinions which I put here on Face Book or read my article, on my blog, you must have observed that I finish the article by mentioning, Always in your faith, Sakha The Eternal Friend. Now I would like to tell you about how and why I chose this name.
First of let me tell you what does Sakha means. Sakha means friend in Sanskrit, and if you as person would have lived your life to the fullest during some moment with some person, one thing which you will agree on is that to enjoy any relationship with any person, one needs to have a bent of friendship in it. So whatever might be the relationship you share; family, relatives , colleagues and friends, its only when you are with your friends that you really enjoy, open up without inhibitions, become natural and share deep chemistry and very personal and meaningful moments with them. Obviously you might say that you are free and very open to your father, mother, brother, husband, wife etc., but that freeness and openness has come only when one of you or both of you have agreed to be more like friends, so that the relationship stays alive and fresh. If not then the relationship is very dull, passive, and for namesake.
Hence only when, if you try to have a friendly kind of relationship with your parents, with your colleagues, with your neighbors, etc. rather than, just living by the set code of the ordained relationship, all the three entities, i.e., the relationship, the other person and your self as an individual are addressd and taken care of in a genuine way. Because in a true friendship there are no pretensions, no acts or hidden agendas that have to be fulfilled. Only true a friend can accept someone as friend as he/she is, without judging him /her on personal or any other basis.
But before going out and befriending others, you have to befriend the person within you without any regrets , conflicts and comparisons. Hence you, who truly are, mighty and infinite needs to take over and embrace the person who you think you are with all its mistakes, good, bad, evil, fears, like, moods etc. This person is very scared and anxious, and needs to be loved and accepted first than any one else, before you move on to love and accept some person outside. Once that person within you feels that there is someone who will always be faithful, loving , caring and understanding just like a true friend, as a Sakha, will that person slowly transform itself to its full potential. Once you make friends with this person, there will be a very open, clear and honest communication without any blocks or inhibitions, and this relationship of friendship within you, will be the best friendship ever, you would have had in you entire life, and will stay forever. What you need to show is total faith in your powers and faith in the person whom you befriend, without any judgment or reasoning going beyond logics. And the person within you will always be grateful to you, as a friend for helping it deserve its rightful position and potential, and when once this happens, this friend of yours will be all ready to be friends with each and everybody without expecting anything in return. And this is the real power of true friendship, accepting someone as they are, loving them unconditionally and then let the unconditional love take care of whatever needs to be done. No pushing, no complaining, no undue expectations, only love, joy and blessings from your heart. No other relationship has this kind of beautiful form and essence, since all the relationship including of people who want to be friends to fulfill their needs, are based on some expectations, judgments and approval of yourself as person.
And hence I have chosen the name Sakha, only after befriending the person within me, accepting it as it is, and letting it get transformed up to this point, where it naturally wants to pour out it’s love and joy to others without wanting anything in return. It wants all its relationships to be inclined towards and based on true and pure friendship without any mean motives to be fulfilled. It just want to see all its friends, just happy, enjoying and living the life to the fullest all moments, and nothing else!
In fact my name itself Amit in Jewish means a friend and in Hindi means, infinite/eternal, hence Sakha-The Eternal Friend. And the eternal friend is that person within you, who stays friends with you eternally..Forever!
Always in faith,
Love peace joy blessings

There is no way OUT, unless you don’ t look IN!

Things, people who are close to you and you feel attached are the only one who have the power to put you in pain and misery, because you have allowed and empowered them in the first place to hostage your happiness and security. Once you have a reason for your happiness and security outside you, you will always be like a puppet playing in the hands of these outside forces, people or things. We all are free to choose things and people we like. We become friends, close friends, even lovers. When the closeness increases, so does the vulnerabilities to being hurt and suffer.And at the end what remains is broken heart filled with pain and bitterness, and confused mind which becomes cynical and negative, towards people and relationships. So how does one not suffer, and at the same time remain completely involved with people and things around, enjoying each and every moment to the fullest?
The important thing is not that you suffer and have pain, that is ought to happen, the only important thing is that, why in the first place do you have to find your happiness, worth , security and comfort in outside world? What makes you to seek things in the outside and then feel good about them, and then when you lose them you are shattered? And all the time in between what keeps on going is roller coaster ride of your emotions and feelings, which make you feel happy at one instant and disappointed at the next. Why is your search for all things in life based on the outside, when you know that the only things which will give you company and is with you all the time is your own mind, heart and body.?Why not invest in the real gold within us, so that all your external crutches which make you feel and look like a handicap are thrown away.
The reason for your outside search is because there is a person within you who want to be loved, approved and appreciated by others. Your competition is with the other person who has got more of the outside approval, appreciation and worth from others. Your parameters of being happy and feeling good is only this, How much more have I got than the people around me? And this competition never ends. In fact you think human life is all about becoming better than the others at any cost and struggle to survive.
Once you realize that your true competitors are not outside you, but on your inside, your own, faulty and messed up beliefs about who you are and what life is all about will you be able to extricate yourself from this labyrinth of human condition, of suffering and misery. Remember, its you and only you who have created and lived your life so far, so its only you, who will have to firmly put your foot down to get things done the right way. And the right way is not out there in any kind of God, religion, father in the heaven, holy sprit etc. The right way is inside you. The power is within you. Have faith in yourself first, that you as human being deserve nothing lesser that the best. Once you find your own worth, security and comfort inside, there shall be no longer any seeking to be done outside.
Always in your faith,

The Power of Surrender and Acceptance

You must have heard people talking about the power of now, and how it gives one an immense sense of strength and joy. But the power of now, i.e. living in now is not that easy to achieve as told by people who have experienced it. In fact the people who have experience the power of now is not by trying to live in now, instead living in now happened to them as a natural side effect to something which they did. Hence one can’t live their life just by telling oneself all the time that one has to live in now, and then after sometime forgets about it. One needs to realize the hidden principle that works behind, which leads to a simultaneous and spontaneous state of living in now, without even you or someone reminding you to live in now.
Do you know what that great principle is? It is the initial power, which you have to show first, which will lead to the so called infinite power of now in a very easy and natural state, without struggling to achieve it. And that power is the power of complete acceptance and total surrender. Only if someone who dares to completely accept his/her situation in life including his miseries, sorrows and pains that they have experienced so far, as an inevitable and inextricable part of human life just like so called happiness and joy , will they have taken the first step towards living in now. When I say total acceptance that acceptance is of the totality of life and yourself as an individual with varied personality.Total acceptance of everything which is offered by life without any unnecessary struggle to fight against the so called vices in them and negativities of life, will give you some sanity and clarity to your mind.
The situations appear to be good and bad from your own subjective and personal frame of reference, hence for you to accept the situations as they are you have to accept your personality, your, beliefs, attitudes and ego as it is, and be more objective and show willingness to transform your life.Once you accept yourself as person as it is , love that person, feel good and comfortable living with the person within you without having any conflicts and confusion on your inside, you would have taken the second step towards living in now.
Now the third and final step of living in now is total surrender. Now who will surrender to whom? I am not asking you to surrender to any Guru, God or Religion or some philosophy of life you find inspiring.The surrender is on the inside and an attitude of your inner being. It is the person who you think yourself to be, who is struggling, suffering, at the mercy of outside circumstances and people around, that has to surrender, to; who you really are.
Surrender is not for the one who are weak , selfish and living in ignorance. Only an individual with real courage, burning desire to set himself free from all the miseries and sufferings, so that he/she could spread and share true love and joy to others, can surrender one’s egoistic person to ones true self. And this surrender leads you to see things with much more clarity and in a fearless way, since the person who was scared, suffering, confused and hurt, now is in the company of someone who is much greater, powerful than the person itself. And that person is in your mind, it is all over your mind, and hence total surrender means surrendering your self with the spirit and attitude of allowing your mind and that person to be taken care by its right and duly care taker and creator.
One can never take care of ones mind by handling and controlling it with mind itself. It will definitely resist and fight it with more power ferociously. Your mind will fight against your own mind, your beliefs and thoughts will be at clash and conflict with your own beliefs and thoughts. In fact surrendering is sheer science. It’s a science based on the flow of energy and it’s dynamics. Energy always flows from a state of high concentration to low concentration. It is only when there is an energy gradient between two entities will the energy flow from the entity which has more energy to the entity with lesser energy.
The mind does not belong to the person. The person itself is the creation of the mind which is all worried, confused and suffering, because the way you have fed your mind has been all wrong, hence the wrong outcome. So the best thing to do is to surrender that untrained and unclear mind along with faulty and un-groomed person, in the hands of the right one under whose guidance and mighty power it will get transformed and renewed into a mind which will be full of clarity and peace. And this is the first requirement to have a glimpse of your true self which will be reflected by that clear and tranquil mind, which will lead to the lining in now stage in a very spontaneous and natural way.
So don’t try to live in now. Accept and surrender, for it to happen on its own.
Always in your Faith

The Moral of The Story doesn't Sound Good!

Have you ever heard any story, I am sure you must have, but have you heard any story which had a moral at the end. Probably yes, almost every story has a moral at the end. But have you ever heard of such a story where the moral was taught and told at the beginning and the story was told later. Well I don’t think you must have ever heard such a kind of story. I don’t remember as well of being told such a kind of story.
But do you know many people including yourself are living and creating the story of your life the same way. In our society, family or else where, people are first taught about the moral and values before creating or living the story of their life. Then their entire life seems to be a big struggle and headache to conform to those morals and values laid down and exhibit them in your behavior, so that you could be accepted as a person with some morals and values. But living by the so called morals, ethics and values is not a natural thing for many people. If fact it is not at all natural to live a whole life based on certain fixed beliefs and dogmas of what to do and not to do. If they do so, then the entire human being and its actions gets programmed in a mechanical way, and there is bound to be always some conflict or the other which crops up, where in the person is caught in between doing what is right and just and what he/she feel like doing due to their faulty programming and conditioning.
Most of them who appear to be so called moral based and ethical people are in fact carrying it as burden and using it as a mere show, to hide the filth that is constantly getting created on their inside. They really want to throw off all the so called moral obligations and ethics , since the animal within them who is not been tamed doest believe in any restrictions. But they have a face to save, an image to be projected, personality to be protected, so that the world and society consider them as great followers of moral and ethical values accepts them. It doesn’t come any naturally, but in a forceful and a helpless way, very mechanical!
Today’s so called highly cultured, civilized, modern and moralistic society is nothing but an amalgation of mean, selfish, hypocritical and fearful attitudes and beliefs being imposed and dumped on people in the name of religious, societal and personal morals and ethics. But the individual has also become very smart and cunning and uses them as a veil only to cover his/her ugly inside world, apparently showing something else on the outside. But on the inside every one is scared, suffering, confused, hopeless, helpless, sick , tired, greedy and ready to trample the other person under one’s feet, in the name of competition and race.

Training the inner core musles

The very basic concept and practical philosophy of being healthy happy on levels of existence is that you should feel comfortable in your body, you should be peaceful with your mind without any conflicts and your emotions be stable and not overwhelm you make you suffer unnecessary. Once you target each and every aspect of these beings one by one you would see in due course of time their a an amazing balance which is produced on each body. And this happens because all these body though you experience them on different level of feelings and experiences they are intricately related to each other. Hence to deal with your mind , body and emotions you need to use something which is even subtler and stronger than them. And that subtler and stronger body of your is the spirit.

Now you must have heard everybody talking about heir mind, body and emotions, discussing about them at length, but have you ever heard someone talking about how to train and use the spiritual powers of your which in fact are the source of origin for the remaining bodies. The reason why people don’t talk about it is that they have never spend any time without feeling free from the worries and needs of their mind, body and emotions. For them their existence and survival depends upon how they could take care of these bodies which they feel , experience and bother them moment to moment. But they remain ignorant about the fact that these bodies are troubling them because the underlying body which is the foundation of these bodies is totally ignored and never taken care of. But how does one communicate with something which is so subtle and not experienced as strongly as other bodies? What is the training for developing ones spiritual powers?
Before I proceed let me make this one point clear where there is very much ignorance and misunderstanding prevailing. You have to remember and beware of the fact the truth, that your spiritual body is just like any other bodies you have, physical, mental and emotional. You are the possessor and master of these bodies, you are subtler than the subtlest, stronger than the strongest. You are neither physical, mental, emotional or spiritual being, you are just a “natural” being , having possession over these seen and unseen bodies and energies. You are beyond the seen and unseen, known and unknown. It is very important to first have an glimpse of the reality who you are before you take on the spiritual training .It provides your body, mind and emotions some confidence and clarity of what has to done and who is the one who will get the things done. Only when you acknowledge the fact and truth who you are, can you start with your so called spiritual training, else there are lots of spiritual seeker, who just go round and round, confused and feeling defeated, since they really don’t have the right kind of knowledge and training regarding their spiritual pursuit. How can you be at some place without having any idea of what that place is like? Any journey, whether outer or inwards requires oneself to first be clear of what one has to become and achieve. Though the inward journey is more on undoing and un-becoming, then too it is important that when one comes to the goal and destination, he/she knows what it is, and gets one with the goal. This might sound a bit difficult to grasp on intellectual level, but over a period of time, you would have gone beyond the intellectual reasoning, and your intuition itself will point you out when you have become yourself.
Now lets proceed with how to train your spiritual body. The principle of training your spiritual body is same as principle of training any of the other bodies, physical, mental and emotional. Personally speaking from my own experience as a fitness trainer and then a yoga teacher, I have always used this principle to train the muscle of my spirit and the result initially was more and more clarity and deep peace within me. That principle is the principle of overload, and to discuss it, lets take the example of your physical body. Now every body know that if we push our physical body beyond its normal potential of strength an power it responds to that stimulus, making the muscle and bones stronger, provided that there is regular exercise happening, which will stress your body in a controlled way. Same way is with your spiritual muscle, the only difference is that in spiritual training the resistance is not outside the body, but inside you, i.e. your own mind and emotions, and the improvement of the spiritual training is measured in terms of the peace and lightness felt on all three bodies, i.e. physical, me natal and emotional that slowly grows within when you get more and more detached with them.
The more you start getting detached the more comfortable you become with your own mind and emotions and more peace and lightness you experience. Ultimately the detachment increases so much that you are able to see yourself as someone who is not his mind, body and emotions and an amazing sense of bodylessnes and ecstasy is felt . And this spiritual training continues all the time throughout the day, when you are interacting with others and especially with yourself.
Like any other training, spirituals training also requires some rest and proper nutrition , so that you could get optimal result from it. If not I could leads to frustration and disappointment as experience by many spiritual seekers. This rest and nutrition for your spiritual muscle come from mediation( done at least for ten minutes) and then using the your discrimination and intellect to review how your mind and emotions influenced your state of peace and happiness. There should be some time kept aside where you contemplate how your mind and emotions have been conditioned by society, people, ,religion yourself etc., and how your behavior and thoughts are actually totally dependant on that conditionings. It is this conditioning that has to be removed and let go off, so that you could see yourself as you are without any perspective and subjective view of your feelings and thoughts force you to believe. The spiritual training should take you to a sage where you now that your are not your mind and emotions and neither their thoughts and feelings. This should act as a motivation and your quest to become you will intensify more.
Always in your Faith,

Top Ten Sure Fire ways for Being the Real You!

Friends, everything which we experience in life is all learned and programmed, either consciously or unconsciously. Let it be how we smile, how we talk, walk, get angry, feel happy, feel romantic, feel satisfied, feel jealous etc. .Everything has been learnt and is programmed in our mind on a deeper levels. Majority of the programming and learning keeps on going on an unconscious level which we fail to be aware of, but the effects are seen on the conscious level of our mind including our bodily experiences during particular feelings or emotions which we term as “Life”. Hence the entire life is lived in the ups and downs due to the unsteady nature of the acquired personality which is formed by these learned beliefs, attitudes and judgments about people and events we face in life. These layers of personality in form of deeply stored beliefs and attitude is the only reason for the human condition of suffering, happiness, excitement, sorrow, satisfaction, dissatisfaction, greed, pride, lust, jealousy, fear ,confidence and all dualities of the world and mind. This human condition can only be overcome if we truly take efforts and show burning desire to completely strip ourselves of all what we are not. Being aware and awake all the time to observe and witness is the only practice which will remove all the false identities which you have been living so far and assuming it real, yet being like a puppet in their hands.
Following are a few practices which I have personally tried before my “Self” revealed itself on dropping of the false selves. As a friend my only concern is to see my lovely friend reading this to experience his/her unique body and mind by giving him/her the taste of what they call as “ kingdom of heaven” all the time.
1)Accept first, that all this time the one who was suffering, enjoying, excited, dejected, satisfied, frustrated and all other experiences which you assumed you had, was not the real you.
2)Then whenever you feel overwhelmed, carried away, excited by emotions, purposely slow down your body movements and start practicing deep breathing. Especially when people or circumstances expect you to work and act in hurry under time constraint. Purposefully slow down all the work and listen to what the person inside wants you to do and why?
3)Ask yourself the question who is this person who seems to get excited, happy, frustrated and experience all other emotions during and after interacting with people. Please try it right now at this very moment immediately after reading this, because I am sure many of you might have judged and labeled me as fool, as a stupid person or otherwise as well. Just go that root of the person who makes these judgment and why.
4)Go openly and confront all what you fear, worry or feel hesitant about (Obviously harmless for others and u as well, might be even beneficial) like singing loudly, waving at school bus, playing with kids giving them flying kisses, smelling the breeze or the air right in the middle of road, cracking more jokes at home or office, saying sorry/ thank you instantly without thinking much, not going to temple/church/mosque etc. The point is to find out what is that person who silently suggest you to refrain you from doing these acts(or other which you want to do).Get to know that person, it’s beliefs and excuses it gives to you.
5)Try to appreciate as many people as possible throughout the day for whatever reason. You like about them. Appreciate a stranger if you find something nice about him/her. If people appreciate about you or talk good things accept it openly. But throughout the course just witness your reaction from within to find out who is person which feels good after giving and receiving compliments. Who is the person which doest not allow to appreciate and compliment others and what excuses it gives. The point is to find it out and let go of it. They are nothing but your own beliefs and ideas about your false image and self.
6)Be all mindful and observant especially when you feel hurt, jealous, hatred, greedy and negative. Try to loosen up your entire body and start breathing deeply. Just get behind the thoughts which are floating in you mind and reach out for the false self which wanted the things to go the other way but did not expect the result. Find out the person who demands things to go only in a particular way always, else it suffers.
7)Try to observe silence and stillness through out the day as much as possible and be aware of how you tense your body and breathe shallowly without any reason most of the time during the day. Practice deep breathing and keeping your body parts and joints loose and relaxes everywhere especially when you go to sleep.
8)Try to visualize your “death” happening in front of you and clearly experience the person who feels bad, afraid and unsatisfied. Try to know why is he/she feeling so and on what basis. What doest it want to hold on to and what it doesn’t want to let go and what will happen if it doesn’ happen that way?
9)Wherever you are, try to sometimes visualize how insignificant your body , your beliefs, your attitude is compared to the vast earth spinning around itself, the infinite universe and the space beyond. Try to see yourself as if you were watching yourself, others busy in their so called life matters, the earth and all the planets in the universe form outside space. Right at this moment if you feel this point to be totally absurd, just pause and track the person who thinks so and why does it thinks so? What it wants you to believe in? The point is to know the nature of your mind and how have you shaped it and your so called personality with whom you so strongly identify.
10)Try to put yourself in shoes of others as if you were having there body and mind(plants and critters included) and try to see and feel that, apart from the mechanism of body and mind which are relative and subject to change everybody has something which remains still and silent, which you have been with so far. This is the real you who has been observing and witnessing events and people interacting around. If this is the real you and the same one is in everybody then there is actually no need for you to be jealous, angry, greedy, excited, fearful of anything, since the real you will always remain as it is immaterial of what happens around. This real you is the “real life” what you truly are, which is one and only one and all other things which you have been experiencing are the “matters of life” as family life, school life, college life, love life, work life, married life, social life etc. In fact the one life has got many forms and expressions and if you start being what you are (instead of doing things to become what you are not) you shall feel connected with the entire universe ,the bodies and minds of others since all of these came from only one thing which is you, the eternal life!

Great Investment Tip to Attract Wealth!

People now a days have become very smart and accurate in forecasting about the fluctuations of the share markets and then make appropriate and careful investment. But they fail to address the fluctuations of their mind and emotions, which make their inner world chaotic like a marketplace. Only when they shall be sensitive towards it and make necessary investments on inside, will they reap a return of peace and harmony in their life.
What they do not understand is, that being wealthy is not in “doing things” which accumulates more and more wealth with an intention to be wealthy, in fact being wealthy is a state of mind, where you are no longer considering yourself to be poor and with lack of wealth. And every act of yours comes out from that state of being wealthy. With this mindset of “being wealthy” you will attract not only the material wealth, but you shall also be spared of the mental and emotional poverty which is evident by the greedy and jealous nature of someone who “does things” to “become wealthy”, and actually never really becomes one, since he/she gets caught in the viscous cycle of doing something to become something. Hence stop doing and start being. Act from your wholeness, your abundance and your true worth as an individual and a human being.
We are “human being”, just stop all your non sense of “human doing” to become something. You already are something (which many of us don’t know and realize, and hence the great and perpetual struggle), and no more do’s and don’ts will make any difference to your being. Be still and know yourself, the one whose nature is full of abundance, glory, magnificence and absolute wholeness.
Only when you shall foresee the great profit which is stored in making investments in your own self by studying the inner world of yours, will you be able to live a life more and more out of being.
Remember you don’t have to become rich to be wealthy, and at the same time you can still feel like a pauper, even after you have the wealth of both the world.
So the choice is yours , either you want to be wealthy by running after the luxuries at the cost of making your mind and heart yearning, expecting and anxious for more and more like a beggar and trader on the streets of markets(share or otherwise) or to have a wealthy mindset to attract all what you want without acting impoverished, by being a merchant of love, prosperity, wisdom, strength and joy.

A Spitting Cobra or Spilling Life?

Have you ever seen a cobra under some threat and how it spits out its deadly venom on its attacker to defend itself. The venom is so poisonous, that it can make one lose his/her eye sight. If further provoked the cobra will deliver a fatal bite, which can kill even an elephant within few minutes. Obviously all this is nature's unique gift to cobra to protect and survive in the wild. And it works out pretty well as there are not many animals who would want to mess with a it.
Drawing parallel to the cobra story if we consider our self as an highly advanced and evolved being we have got two options in life; First is to live a life full of struggle, competetion, greed, fear, insecurity based on mere survival instinct for which it will be necessary for that person to spit vicious venom through his mind, heart and deeds, to fend of his so called competitors and sometimes even give a deadly blow which will leave a relationship dead and lifeless if that person is further provoked or stressed.
Second option is to live a life fee from every competetion, struggle, fear, greed and insecurities without viewing others and the world as jungle and a market to compete and survive. No need to create and maintain any venomous or deadly thoughts, beliefs, and attitudes in the first place. What you instead throw and spill on people is only true love, life and care which makes them defenseless instantaneously and befriending them.
Do you have want to live a life like a non-venomous and a harmless person yet full of power and life force in it or like a venomous being nursing and fuming inside with the fatal poison of fear, jealousy and insecurities, which is not only harmful to others but to him as well?
The choice is yours. After all it is your life(Thats what you assume!). Its how you view it and live it.
But at least make an attempt to know about the reality of what life is all about before living in your own made world of sufferings and sorrow.
Get out of the jungle of mind into the heaven of what true life is all about.
Always in you faith,

Personality Dis-Integration Course

Personality development is a farce, since their is no person present that needs any development. What is there is only you, only life, here and now. The person is nothing but the cravings and hankerings of thoughts, which seeks for outside comforts to give a false sense of security and happiness. Don't focus on development of that person, instead aim to dismantle and dissolve all layers of the so called personalities to eventually destroy the person!
A person is nothing but the smoke which is left after your emotions and desire ignite, and you try to se your face in it after struggling to keep the fire on. But neither the fire nor the smoke stay there for a long time. The moment the fire of your so called passion and desire subsides the smoke also goes away. And you feel dejected and low finding life dull and boring unless you feel that rush of passion and chaos in your mind and body. You again try to create the same smoke by igniting more and more desires and dreams to feel the high of living a “happening” life(BTW there are two kind of Happening Life- one in which things happen to you all the time and second where you choose to make things happen all the time, choice is yours!) and in pursuit of so happiness in the outside world. But again the fire is their for some time along with the smoke. You see some smoky image of yourself in that smoke feel good about it, and then again it disappears, leaving you hurt and miserable. And this cycle keeps on continuing, as long as you identify your existence with the image in the smoke. It gives you a false sense of comfort and worth of being someone and something, of being capable, of being loved and being deserving, by doing something to gain approval of others or yourself.
You are not in that smoke and neither is your existence like it; temporary and relative. The smoke is just their to help you guide up to your real destination of who you are. But all what you are concerned is only playing foolishly with the smoke and end up living a suffocated and hazy life full of sufferings, sorrow, and total lack of clarity. Go behind the smoke, find out the fuel which ignites the fire and creates the smoke. Go to the root of it. You shall find that the fuel for this smoky person you call yourself is nothing but your own flawed thoughts and beliefs about yourself and the reality. Once you are able to dispose off that fuel which you have been creating and storing in form of your beliefs, you will be able to slowly get to know about your self in a better way, that you are not a person which you and others consider yourself to be. Instead you are the one who is the maker and creator of that person and were just fooled by the falsity of the image which was projected to you. You took it to be real, which in fact is totally unreal and temporary, changing on moment to moment basis.
The person is just a mask (In fact the word person has come from Latin word persona which means mask. In earlier days during some plays actors use to wear some kind of mask during the play on stage to hide their identity hence the name).So remove the mask and be bold and ferales to be who your are.
So if you are not a person you should not really care about decorating and developing your so called personality to impress others(If the body does not exist then on what are you going to put the clothes on). There are no persons to impress. You just are fooling with yourself and having a fancy dream. Wake up from it and start living life every moment instead of only planning to avoid death and sufferings.
Also do not split your life and yourself into personal, social, family, friends etc kind of classes and suffer in multiples. You can divide your responsibilities towards each aspect of your life, but be the same individual who you are with the same life which is whole, one and not capable of further division (In-Divisible!). You who are an “Individual” essence of the universe which is one complete and unique in its own perfect sense and all absorbed within it, and not a person who need multiple personalities to exist and hence, always keeps on struggling to survive.

Get the S#*T Out of your Head!

When was the last time you felt constipated, had upset stomach? Are you able to recollect and relive the experience of what you went through at that time? Frustration, helplessness, misery, overly critical and utter regret over what you might have had eaten the previus day which made you to suffer in this way. Well after you had quite a few visits to the loo you must have felt a bit relieved, though completely tired and seriously praying that the visit should be the last one.
Obviously everybody knows why and how one gets an upset stomach, constipation and loose motions, one really does not need to go and consult a doctor for it .Only if you might have over eaten the previous day, or had some stuff, bad for your stomach unknowingly or knowingly, just because it was tempting, you will suffer from this atrocity and rebellion from your stomach. It just wants to get rid of all what you had dumped into it without considering about the future consequences. In fact you should be thanking it, that it is helping your system to detoxify the harmful waste, and get rid of it or else your health would deteriorate even more, requiring serious medical assistance.
But you hardly have any gratitude for your poor stomach, instead you first abuse it and when you suffer, you curse it even more. You filthy, thankless creature! Anyways that’s how people are ungrateful and weird.
People are aware of only this constipation on a physical level caused by upset stomach which leads to so much of physical draining of energy and frustration. But there is another type of constipation which is even worse than this one and the effects of which are there for along long time. It is mental constipation, caused by upset mind and emotions leading to a continuous state of suffering in form of frustration, hatred, jealousy, greed, and fear. And the worst thing is that, most people who suffer from it on daily and moment to moment basis do not even know that they are suffering. They assume this mental constipation is a part and parcel of life, and hence they live with it and even find ways to increase their sufferings and even recommend it to others! LOL!
Not only they live with the filth and waste in their minds they also spread it around. They do not understand that the real cause of their sufferings and all possible unhappiness and sorrow in their life is their failure to clean up the mess with which they have filled their head with. People in fact consider and value it as priced possession, as some significant knowledge and information which will help them to be happy , free and joyous in life. What they do not realize is that there is no knowledge, no information in form of any thoughts, ideas, attitude, beliefs and philosophies of life however rosey and beautiful it might sound and feel, that will bring love, peace and joy in life.
Knowledge, information, theories, intelligence, attitude is all good and required for one to achieve success in the outside world(even that cannot be guaranteed most of the times!), but if we just acquire and store all crap ideas, thoughts, beliefs etc to be happy and joyous, it starts just piling up over there and starts decaying making the person suffer even more under its pressure. No amount of knowledge, thoughts, beliefs etc., even if it were from your religion, from your Geeta, Bible, Kuran etc. can give you a taste of what it means to be truly happy, joyous, free and fearless.
Just remind yourself what was the reason for your physical constipation and loose motions? It was due to either too much of food or some bad food or both. Same is with your mental constipation and the “loose motions of your emotions”(I really enjoyed writing this one!).You have to empty your mind and put only the truthful principle to be perpetually, happy, free and joyous life, which is, that there is nothing in this world which can give you true happiness, joy and freedom. If it does it comes along with its own share of suffering. It is a sorrow and misery disguised as happiness and joy. Hence you need to be all awake and aware before feeding anything in your mind especially if it related to your happiness and peace.
You need to just empty your mind of all the rot which you have been gathering over the years hoping that it is and will provide me with happiness and joy. Just go with your “Gut Instinct”. Take a step forward with courage to declare that your happiness, peace, joy, freedom and life does not depend on any thoughts, ideas, beliefs, attitudes, circumstances, and even people whom you find near and dear.
This is the time to clear your stuff or else if you continue to live with it, the sufferings and the miseries are going to be worse and it shall become impossible for you to do it. You shall become cynical, neurotic and a person with full of duplicity and hypocrisy.
P.S- Please friends, there is no pill or medicine available to empty your mind like you get to empty you bowels. So don’ ask for prescriptions! Yes, but you can start my being aware of your own mess and reduce it through mediation, and selfless, non judgmental and unconditional acts for others and yourself as well.
Always in your faith,
Love Peace Joy Blessings,
