A talk show on contradictions, confusions and compulsions between the elderly and the next generation brought forth the wrath of the elderly and the lack of compassion of the young. Well anchored by one who knows the art of moving and sliding from side to side to bring the best of the both, gave room for contemplations. Loneliness, the most predominant factor felt among many elders clearly indicates the lack of connectivity." A loner builds walls around but fails to build bridges"-- Walls built in body and mind are barriers, firstly to one's own self. Walls of my family, my friends, my needs...endless it is. Approachability and comfortability becomes an almost impossible task with such an individual, irrespective of age. Awareness in connectivity leads to bridges irrespective of age and creed. None can create the loneliness in any one. A discordant chord within snaps the beauty of alone and confines it in loneliness. Sympathy and a subtle dominance of, "I" ...

Moving from the Interpreting mind To the Integrated Self is Harmony The very word resonates a sense of completeness. From childhood, we have learnt the meaning of the word as "there is no flaw and everything is perfect". Also, we are taught to relate this beautiful word to the outside -- people and situations. Rarely, we come across to relate to the significance of the inner self . when two people are found to share a non-complaining and satisfying relationship, then we address them as someone who is in harmony with each other. Mostly, harmony is used to describe two entities that share the platform of comfort ability . Be it nature, people or situations -- it is always with something other than one's own self wherein the word finds its usage. When such a division arises, it is a clear indication that the mind comes into play. The mind is too good in interpreting and defining it with wonder words. One just needs to be smart to know the mind and move to the next zone, The...

In a vehicle on road, the indicators play a major role in alerting the others on the path and letting them move smoothly in their way. Firstly, it is more of a mental alertness for the one who drives as to clearly know his way. Secondly, it helps the others to know if you are going to turn right or left etc. Right frame of mind, the indicators are on the right track too. Any swing in the functioning of mind, the same indicators get switched on wrongly -- right indicator and turn left. This results in accidents, chaos and all confusions to the rider and the rest. Sometimes, traffic jam too! The light is permanently fixed and so is the switch with facility to move the way we want. who is it operating? That's what makes the difference. Moods of the human beings are similar to the indicators. Clear mind operating results in the good moods, paves way clearly for self and others too. Confused mind operating, unfortunately results in the bad moods and the chaos, accidents and the traff...

Sickness, hospital, confined to the bed -- who would ever wish to be there either as a patient or as an attendant. But, life is not of choices of our own. One may plan everything in detail for the next day and go to bed. Wake up only to face the reality. Few are indeed unfortunately fortunate to observe the functioning of this great equipment called body and mind in such situations. I dont wish anyone for such a experience but at the same time when it happens, instead of getting caught with the sickness and the gloom of the whole region, you may choose to make use of it to observe yourself and the others too. Firstly, when we are clear with the understanding of body, mind and soul, the connectivity with our ownself does not succumb to the sicknesss of the body. No doubt, we watch the body failing in its functioning. The connectivity turns the duty as compassion. We watch and attend to our own body with so much compassion and the same happens when we are a attendant for others too. Comp...

Confide in one's own self is confidence. For this to happen, one needs to identify the self. The human being is used to developing confidence in others. Its the outside which lets you know and get the feel of that word, confidence. Actually, the outside either helps to identify the hidden potential or becomes an emptying vessel for emotional confidence. All these aspects take place on the zone of body and mind functioning. To have a complete development in one's own self, the search for wholeness begins. Thats when every aspect and angle of the outside is turned within to derive the same, right within. Not every individual is fortunate to get that exclusive guidance from a human form who knows His Self and who enables you to find your self too. Coming into contact with such Realised beings, you discover a whole lot of missing(misplaced) blocks that are essential to complete the construction. Both the body and mind are meant for attaining the eventual wholeness. Remaining in th...

Beware of Ignorance Be Aware of Self! That which begins as a practice Becomes a part of the whole Nothing new that never existed is going to be introduced for practicing. Yet, there comes a moment when each of us are introduced to discover our own self through various means. Body exists from the time of birth, yet the real feel of that first moment is experiential. Same with breath too. Breathing has been happening but when we enter into its realm with that touch of awareness then on the Real living begins. Ignorance in a way acts as the backdrop for awareness. In life, when we begin to learn some art or anything, we tend to have a total focus on the job. Like when we first begin to cut vegetables, the eyes, the hands and the mind are in total focus. Its the practice which eventually leads to evolution. Perfection sounds more like a finite one. But with subtleness, it just expands to nowhere. The taste of the self which begins as a practice eventually grows to expand in awareness. Focu...

Expression in Time Essence beyond time Existence both in time and beyond! Essentially everyone is good in nature(not the good against bad). Essence is nothing but just a spark of the source, got to be That only. But when it gets expressed, the problem starts depending on the purity of the expression and the time at which its delivered. Right time, right place, right person -- all is well, missing any one -- one is in the well. Does one have a control on all these factors? may not be. Do we have the control over our time of birth or death? no. Then, whats it one suppose to learn from this process of Time factor. Its not in differentiating it as Good and Bad, but how well we relate it with our own self and remain in balance. Nature never chose only the sunny days or the rainy days. Its meant to balance the action and withdrawal in accordance with time. Thats why, Sri Krishna says, All that happens is for the good All that happened is for the good All that is to happen is for the good ...

"Observe not the people around you, but the thoughts within you" - Living Master Akshara . People followed by situations come into our lives only to indicate the presence of certain corners (Dark & Bright)hidden deep within and let us learn to be aware of the Real Self in the absence of such thoughts. Thats why instead of getting caught in the trap of the Human being that acts as a pointer to look within ourselves, its important to make use of that pointer to turn within. Ofcourse , not an easy job but yet its worth the effort. In a way, they help us to unravel our own self. A kind of unpleasant help in the case of discovering the dark corners via a disturbed and yet to realize being. Unless exposed to such people and situations, how are we to experience the unknown? Similarly, some people and situations can help us to rediscover our hidden talents too. Realized beings are the ultimate source to know both our positive and negative sides and they help us to outgrow both t...

Expressions of experiences Observed within and outside Pens them as poems to prose Pointers they remain To the flowing river Quenching one's thirst Is one's own Bend to taste the flow Be wise to have your own..

A student gains each day. A follower of the Way (Tao) loses something each day.Loss after loss until arriving at Non Action (Wu Wei).* -Lao Tzu Knowledge is the accumulation of information which the student gains each day. But when the same knowledge takes an inner turn as experience, thats connecting to the Self, one has to lose all that has been gained. Thats what is called emptying, non action. Any resistance offered in the process of a student or a follower it would only arrest the way. Its much easier to gain than to lose. Resistance may probably be converted to re-assisting one self. No logic, no reasoning, just moving ahead with favourable or unfavourable situations but never losing track with Self can help one to learn the art of losing much much faster. The worldly loss like money, relationship etc causes unbearable sorrow and engulfs one in a terrible state of fear of all sorts and insecurity. It makes the heart heavier and the head go mad. The loss of a follower of the Way...

What can wonders of wisdom do? Sharp connectivity to the source, uninterrupted flow of channeling, manifestation of Divine expression... Some of these expressions are art, dance, music,poem,essay,etc.. Many times, when we witness these expressions from different forms, one of the most used word is WOW!! Not necessarily the expressions have to be reflected in some activity, but sometimes even just the presence of That Being brings forth ...Wow!!! Such are our Saints and Masters, rooted forever in the Source. But lets not miss, in our daily lives, many many momentary Wows too. The laughter of a baby, the blossoming of a flower, the song of a bird, the sunshine on the green leaves, the dew drops.....endless list... Of course , to receive these Divine expressions from the natural channels, one must learn the art of connecting to the Self. So its necessary to seek the wisdom to be a WOW or to say a WOW too....
