Who am I

Who am i?

I am not this, I am not that. I am nothing. Yet I am everything.
And sometimes,
I am this, I am that. I am everything. Yet, I am nothing.

So, Who am i?

Talking

You hear some words in your head and you think it is you who is talking.
When you like what that sounds like, you let it continue.
And even when you don't like what it sounds like, you let it continue.
and occasionally when you get overwhelmed by it, you say to it "Don't talk", "Stop talking".
How can you stop anything when you are not the one who is doing it, talking in this case.
Everything is happening by itself. You just identify yourself with it. Again, talking in this case.
If you want to stop talking, don't say " Stop talking"  or " you are talking too much".
Try saying nothing at all.

There is only one

They say, there's a speaker, there's a listener, there's a talker, there's a feeler, there's a thinker.
But there's only one. Doing all these activities at the same time.
So where is the confusion, why do we get distracted, what do we get disturbed/depressed about?
Confusion arises when we don't allow ourselves to do each of these activities to its completion/fruition.We are way too hard on ourselves. We order ourselves to do another activity before the one in hand is done.
For ex:- When we have to listen, we say to ourselves talk. And before we complete talking, we say feel, and before we feel it completely, we say talk again, before we complete talking again, we say think, and before we complete thinking.. we say feel.
We never completely do one thing. It takes a great deal of inner observation, awareness and discipline to teach ourselves to do one thing at a time. .The best part is, if we allow ourselves to do one thing completely the other things happen simultaneously beautifully.
Develop that kind of discipline, observation and awareness and be the one. :)

Enjoy the Game.

We are players. Players of different kind of games. Enjoy the Game.

Build your will power

How do you build your will power?

When you say, I will do it, Do it.
When you say, I can do it, Do it.
When you say, I have to do it, Do it.
Say often, I can, I will
And don't just say it. But do it.

Thought of the Day.

Your mind is your best friend and a best enemy too depending on how its working for you.

When it suggests some not so good thoughts like
I cannot handle it
I am not good enough.
I don't want to do this or do that.
Will i ever be happy.

Stop it right there and ask it to get help to get the things done.

Mind and Pain.

The moment pain shows up, mind runs away from it.
Runs away towards something that is not so painful.
Why?
Because it is not used to being around pain.
Because it is not still aware that pain too like everything else comes and goes.
So How do we make get used to it or become aware of it.
By being/sitting/seeing pain when it comes.
Even if it is for half a second initially, just be with it.
Don't dump all the pain on it at once, let the mind get used to pain slowly

Breathe

Breathing is a process that happens naturally.
But when we meet some hard stops, rough patches, disappointments, loss, bad memory, breaks, criticism, delays  and so on., and some times excitement too, we forget to breathe or our breath  becomes irregular.
So just breathe, don't forget to breathe no matter what the situation..
Breathe away the bad situation. :).

See all

In some moments, there is disturbance.
In some moments, there is ease.
See the disturbance.
See the ease.
Because the disturbance is you, ease is you. All that is, is nothing but you.
Don't just say i want see one part, and not the other one.
See all of it.

Everything is God.
Everything is one.
Know that,

Body and Mind

Body and Mind are independent and interdependent on each other.

Body has the capability to restrain/control mind and
Mind has the capability to restrain/control the body.
And each need to do that, if they don't, their roles gets interchanged.

When body has to control mind  and does not control mind,
then  in turn mind will control the body and does things it is not supposed to.,
and when mind has to control body and does not control body,
then in turn body controls mind and does things that it is not supposed to..

Thoughts, Thoughts, Thoughts

The so called life that we talk about and live daily is nothing but a thought, ok  a collection of thoughts. Imagine what life would be like without any thoughts.During the course of our day, we have multiple thoughts running in our mind.One thought will make us happy, and another thought will make us sad, and then another thought will make us inspired, and another thought will  make us disappointed, and another thought will make us hungry, and another thought will make us excited.

It's just thoughts, thoughts thoughts and more thoughts. questions are thoughts, answers are thoughts, problems are thoughts, solutions are thoughts. we live in a pool of thoughts. And thoughts perpetuate confusion. Life is just a game of thoughts.Don't fall in any of these thought traps by not taking any of them so seriously. Try spending your day/life with less thoughts and stay light and relaxed.

Point of Focus

There is a screen, and there are objects on the screen.
What is your point of focus?

The Amount of Happiness and Peace is directly proportional to your point of focus.
 Now, What is your point of focus?

TidBits

-The difference between a wise person and not so wise person lies in how they react to thoughts.

-You will be able to talk less only when you are able to focus.

-Worrying is nothing but continuous talking.

- Mind wants different things at different stages of life. That's all.

Thought of the day

Loneliness is not the problem.
The things we do or want to do in order not to be lonely are the problem.

GR

TidBits

--  When breathing is disturbed, the mind also becomes disturbed.
     Control of the breath enables steadiness of mind.

--  There's a difference between worrying and caring.
     By worrying, we are doing nothing but thinking excessively about it.
     By caring, we do the things that support in the best interest of person or thing.

--  People who are driven, don't sit around and say is this ok? is that ok?
     They just do what needs to be done.

--  It is very good to go blank, and start all over again.

Bad Attitude

With this kind of attitude, you will invite nothing but pain, loneliness and  trouble.

Meditate

Meditate Daily.

Infact make it a habit to meditate as often as possible...... Why? 

Because it

- Improves concentration.And Concentration/Focus is one factor that is needed to achieve goals.

- Helps you not to waste your mental energy on futile things.

Happy Meditation. :)

Thought of the Day

God makes you Soft. Mind makes you Hard. Stay Close to God. Be Soft. :)

Think Positively

A Positive person expects nothing but happiness, health, wealth, good relations and success.Be that person.

If a negative thought returns, replace it with a positive one.If you see your self finding it difficult  in replacing negative thoughts with positive, do not give up. Keep reminding yourself the benefits of good and happy thoughts in your mind. Persistence is the key.

Eventually your mind will learn to think positively, and to ignore negative thoughts.

Skip it

When someone is upset, sad, or angry. Give them a kiss or a hug first. And skip your, i know it all reasons, comments, or complaints for later.

Don't let your feelings vote

We are all going to have an abundance of feeling as long as we are alive, but we must learn that they are always changing. Feelings are not at all dependable. You can have feelings, but don't let them cast the final vote in your decision making.
