I pester you all the while,
Being always troublesome
To add on to the worries
That has already squeezed life out of you
I say “NO” to your advise
Though you give only few.
Besides all these you shed love upon me
Cuddle me, relieve me from my worries
This only beautiful relationship on earth
I believe is true to believe right from birth…..

silence!!! This being my first blog, let me start with the topic "silence", which is my greatest pleasure! Today i was wondering, what is the cause of sufferings and depressions amongst people... ! Just then i was reminded of a qoute where Ramana maha rishi says... "The creator remaining everywhere makes each one of us play his role in life according to the Karma. That which is not destined will not happen despite every effort. What is destined is bound to happen. Therefore the best course is to remain silent!" Today afternoon, I was having a heated argument with my dad, to allow me to go to one of the spiritual programs happening tommorow!... he dint allow me. The same evening, i reminded myself of the quote and tried remaining silent thinking, let it happen as it has to happen... and amazingly he did allow me to the program! This is a very small example that i could give for today! It may seem silly, but its not. I understood that we donot have to fight to get what we want. Just by remaining silent things will happen. The only thing, let it happen, what so ever it may be! Surrender your self to God and donot fight against the law of nature... coz HE knows the best for you! Donot force things that doesnt come easy on your way. All our prayers are answered in 4 different ways. One, God may say yes and give you immediately when you ask. Two, he may say no to you. But, trust.. its all because of the love that God has for you and the final result will be for the best! Three, he says you to wait. This may be to test your patience and faith towards him. Four, is when he says "Here is something better".! In what ever manner your prayer is answered, it is all for your best. Only thing remain silent! Donot react (atleast try not to over react) to the situations! In silence and In God is a solution to ALL your problems. When you fix your mind on God and remain silent, forget your problems. The solution is comes to you spontaeneously!!! His desicion will serve the best for you! If you trust in GOD, then remain silent. The world, the universe, universes you and every being were created by him. He knows the best. We being the children of God, just need to surrender at his lotus feet and remain silent. Remaining silent does not mean, not to attend your duties. but attend them being inwardly detached. Nothing and Nobody belongs to you. HE gives and HE takes back! Who are you inbetween to say this is mine and that is mine! Everything is HIS! and so let your desicions also be his! :) He knows where and how to take you high up! You are just an actor and spectator in the ever enfolding cosmic drama of life. :) Silence to me! Silence to you! Silence to the world! Silence Everywhere!

Life is nothing, but experiencing! "No life will be a failure" - swami Vivekananda. When i was analyzing this quote, I started realizing the truth in it. Every birth we learn and experience something or the other. Working hard is an experience, at the same time sitting idle is another experience. So no life can go a waste or be a failure! Following are a few experiences - 20 years back... Parents wished to own a kid, And I was born in this human form. The happiness could not be explained in words, is what my mom used to say. Then as I grew up, like every kid I started giving them all the troubles and they were fed up of having a kid, like every parent. Then I was told the importance of studies and I was excited to go school. As I wished I was sent to school and later on, found out studying is the toughest thing to do and was fed up with studies. In the mean time I heard college days will be great fun and we will be having nothing to study. So, I wished to go to college and went there. There professors and situations gave the trouble. Though it also had fun, it lasted for a very short time. End of the third year was spent worrying (thinking of the partition); it again led to sadness. In the mean time i started understanding when we get something we want, we are happy. As the days go, the same happiness leads to many troubles. So getting what we want, and being denied of what we want – everything means the same. Everything leads to the same ups and downs. And everything is just an experience. Every happiness will lead to trouble and every trouble will lead to happiness. ;) So LET’S ENJOY ALL OUR EXPERIENCES, since we need all of them to evolve. :) Only when the child touches the fire, he knows that the experience is painful. Like wise only when the soul undergoes each and every experience it learns the truth. Thus lets always keep in mind that, "We are all making a reality out of this illusion(life) with stability, just for our souls to evolve". So, Learn from your past experience. Enjoy your present experience. & Make sure you are ready for the future experience!

Solitude/isolation is considered to be “a state of depression” or “a terrible thing” for many. Yes, I too felt the same a few years ago. But later on, i.e. when I started searching for myself, I realized that “the state of isolation” or “solitude” is one of the best ways to God! In fact now, being with myself feels like being with God! Many start their journey of solitude by different means. Honestly speaking I started mine by the feeling of loneliness. Gradually this unwilling feeling has turned out to be a voluntary decision. Though my eyes were opened to a new set of friends, I still relish being a loner. Hope every one is aware of the fact that no one is alone in this earth. Somewhere someone is always watching each one of us and taking care of us. How wonderful it would be to spend time with that someone to whom we really belong. Haven’t you noticed in the so called lonely moments “we feel ourselves even more connected to that someone”! It could be because in those moments we truly be ourselves! I believe it’s the best time to start observing ourselves. I love spending time alone because those are the moments when “I AM” more with that “Great one”. This is the time when I freely meditate on HIM, talk to him, pray to him, laugh with him and also cry with him. Gradually became mad of him. Their by, he has now become my best buddy. Having been in his company, I can proudly say now “God is my best friend” Just by talking out my happiness, my probs and botherations in life and surrendering them at his lotus feet in an everyday basis, I experience freedom! :) As it is also said, Solitude is the best way to attain spiritual enlightenment:) I wish, we realize, we meet and become one with that great one very soon. I conclude by telling lets long for God in isolation, their by turning "SOLITUDENESS INTO HAPPINESS ”

Criticism and appreciation - In my experience!!! :) "Every positive aspect of mine had seen a drastic growth during appreciation, Every negative aspect of mine has never changed during criticisms. " This is what inspired me to write on the topic... criticism and appreciation. Criticism can be from the heart and from the solar plexus! - GMCKS Criticism from the heart can be in other terms called care! (This is not the subject that we are to deal with at present). People tend to criticize others for their mistakes which may b theirs too... Criticizing one's MISTAKE is wrong cause, we too make mistakes and we never rejoice when being criticized! Next, criticizing a subject, mistaking it to be an object! I.e. criticizing one's physical aspects is fun for many! Don't all of us know that everyone is a creation of God!? So, critcizing one's physical aspects is criticizing the creation of GOD! If we were created with the most beautiful looks, it means we were lucky enough to a have good karma! It does not mean that we have the right to criticize another creation just coz they do not have what you have!! Place youself @ the position of the criticized for a moment before criticizing! Then, decide! Appreciation according to me is big differences through small words/deeds. :) Appreciation is an inspiration to do greater things. The more you appreciate, the more you make others grow. The more you are appreciated, the more you grow! What criticism cannot do, appreciation does! To explain this more clearly I would like to share with u my recent experience. I was once sitting with a friend of mine at home. I heard her telling "hey, green dresses suit you well". This is in fact a very small appreciation, is what you may think. But, I found my wardrobe full of green dresses the next year!! Words have energy! Appreciation has positive energy! I their by started understanding, "What you appreciate grows"! Thus I conclude by telling, when there are so many other ways to change one from worst to the best, why choose criticism? By criticizing I personally believe that you can only worsen the other! Let’s always remember "The word growing implies process. Growing implies mistakes. We all make mistakes"-GMCKS No man is perfect – neither you nor me nor another! "First cast out the beam of your own eye; and then you will see clearly to cast out the mote from your brother's eye" - THE CHRIST! So, let’s stop any tendency to criticize the mistakes of another. Let’s learn to appreciate even small things! BECAUSE THEY REALLY MAKE BIG DIFFERENCES!

I just attended a function recently, wherein students were running here and there with a lot of enthusiasm. Everyone was admiring one another.... " Ah! How beautifull is your earing" " woo... Don tell me, yaa saree is marvellous" " wow! You lukin so pretty like a doll" " Cool man! Where did you get this shirt from. Lookin too smart!"etc..etc... Others came running asking "How am i! How am i"! Like a silent spectator sitting lonely and amused, I was wondering "Does anyone (the 'i am' within) gets beautifull only on dressing up the physical body and through external make up"?! "NO". Does beauty come from outside?! "NO" Beauty comes from within and not from without.! This does not mean not to take care of your physical body! It is ALSO important to enhance your personality in this society of HUMANS!But it is the not the everything. Its just given to u for some period, to take care off. You owe this to someone high up! Your Body is the temple of your soul. Is it good to take care of the temple and forget the God within?! Is it good to take care of the body and forget about the Real YOU?! Grand master choa kok sui says,"Weaknesses have layers like an onion, They must be disintegrated again and again until they are replaced with Right thought, Right words, and Right actions." This means we got to disintegrate and remove the weaknesses from within. It is not just enough to remove the external scars. How many years will this physical body accompany you? Say, 50.. or 60.. or 70..? Then?!!! [:O] Remember "Your own physical body is going to ditch you one day" [Then, how long you think will it take for other human forms to do the same.. hehe...;)] So, Lets start thinking from today! Because tommorow it may be late and thus get difficult too".! What you see is what you are... So start seeing yourself and all others as IMMORTAL and not just temporary forms! Its not enough to admire one's external beauty alone. Lets start admiring one's internal beauty from today. Like... "Ah.. How honest he is" "Wow... So generous you are" "Great... He is too humble" "Lovely... you are really forgivng" etc... etc... Theirby i conclude by telling "Take of your self (the immortal soul) and enhance your inner beauty. Want to know how? Interested in getting beautifull? Learn pranic healing and Arhatic yoga :) Follow them and start glowing and shinning both internally and externally :) Thank you master :) God bless all with an abundance of inner beauty now and for ever.
