What is the combined formula for action, reactions and emotions of life? It is said life is 10 percent of what happens to us and 90 percent of how we react to it. When we respond calmly to anger, we are living life at 90%. We can see through, why that person is getting angry. We can eliminate the root cause of anger and help him live a happier life.

Meditate Before Setting a Goal

When I looked out of the window, I saw some feathers flying up and down in the direction of the breeze. A strong breeze was blowing. After some time, the breeze stopped, and all the feathers fell to the ground. A feather is so light that it cannot decide its grounding place. Similarly, life without a goal is like a feather, it will just keep moving. but if we give direction to life by setting a goal, it will give peace, happiness satisfaction, and bliss. Meditate to set a goal.

Meditation Makes us Selfless Volunteers

One aspect of meditation is, that it makes us selfless volunteers. Some incidents might have taken place in everyone's life. When we were in need, and from the midst of a crowd, someone walked up to help us. We don't even know him or her, yet he or she helps, without any hesitation or expectation. Such people are rare. At times we also get an urge within us, " I want to be like them".

Mother Teresa was one such person. Born on 26 Aug 1910. Her childhood name was Agnes. Agnes was too pious from an early age and committed to charity. At the age of 18, she travelled to India to serve humanity. She looked after people, whom no one was prepared to take care of. this led to the opening of her first home for dying hospices. and orphanages for abandoned children. Her work expanded to 130 countries. In 1979 she was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize." for work undertaken in the struggle to overcome poverty and distress.

Quote-- " It is not how much we do, but how much love we put in the doing. It is not how much we give, but how much love we put in the giving.

Meditation teaches us to love and give.
Meditation at certain levels can transform us completely One way can be to start deriving pleasure and satisfaction by helping others. Such a situation is a step towards a spiritual journey. Keep Meditating

Be A Meditator- Meditation is taking complete responsibility of the moment.

Sudarshan chakra " Disc of auspicious vision" is a shining disc weapon with 108 serrated edges or blades used by Lord Krishna. These blades seek out evil and destroy them. It is said to aim at the enemy with willpower. We too should use our Sudarshan chakra to destroy the negativity and weakness within us, using it as our willpower. For example, for some of us, the first reaction, when a mistake is made or something does not go as planned, is to blame others, make excuses, or twist the facts. Instead, we should use our Sudarshan chakra to eliminate these mentally created enemies by swiftly acknowledging that there is a problem, identifying our role in it, and implementing an action plan to minimize( or entirely eliminate ) the chance of happening it again. Meditation can help us in accepting things as they are, and take responsibility for this moment. Keep Meditating

Give attention to the action itself

Whenever we are taking any action. Most of us start thinking about what will happen if we undertake this action. If we can perform actions without being preoccupied with the benefits. We will be able to discharge our duties efficiently.

According to Eckhart Tolle, do not be concerned with the fruit of your action. Just give attention to the action itself. The fruit will come of its own accord. The Lord Krishna says the same thing in the Bhagwat Gita. " perform actions without expectation of result." Keep Meditating

Breath is the Great Gateway for Understanding the essence of Soul

Is it possible for one human being to understand another? Maybe yes. Maybe no. When we are able to look beyond the appearance of a person, we may understand the essence of his soul. The essence is like a drop of rose oil from a bucket full of roses. In general, there are seven types of soul essence
King, warrior, sage, artisan, server, scholar and priest.
It is with the soul that we grasp the essence of another human being. Breath is the great gateway for understanding the essence of the soul.
Observe your breath. "Ana Pana Sati"

Meditate Before Taking Important Decisions

Stuck with a difficult decision? Think of your options. Sit in meditation. You will have better clarity when you come out of meditation. Do not set an intention to become clear during meditation. Meditation is best done for the sake of meditation. Clarity will come on its own, either now or faster than without meditation.

Meditate to meet and play with the child within you

There is a child inside everyone. That inner child wants your adult self to give love, attention, acceptance, and protection, which makes us loving, caring and happy. As we grow up and get into the set pattern of life. Our mind forgets the needs of our inner child. Our mind makes us think life needs to be a certain way, for example, be punctual, well dressed, work hard, and always speak good words, These behaviours may come naturally to some people, but for others, it may cause stress, anger, and hypertension. So what do we do? Let us liberate ourselves from any form of control. Let us focus on the inner drum, where the rhythm aligns with our breath. Practice meditation regularly. Keep Meditating

Be A Meditator- Celebrate other's achievements as your own

During Asiad 2023 we saw some new stars emerging and others losing the competition by a narrow margin. Winning or losing a medal is a part of the sport. Sometimes we have to accept whatever comes our way. As we can't be winning all the time. If we can leave aside the results ( to be analysed later for the betterment of the game) and start celebrating with the winners. We will observe, that failure takes a back seat. Meditation can imbibe the art of celebrating other's achievements as if they were our own. Thus a feeling of failure is replaced with a feeling of oneness. Keep Meditating

Be A Meditator- Meditate to surf the waves of thoughts

We all have noticed that during meditation waves of thoughts come one after another. It's normal. Of late I noticed that during meditation thoughts related to whatever happened recently, or whatever I read, or watched last night kept surfacing in my mind. Remote and unfamiliar thoughts too appear sometimes. Meditation gives us an opportunity to look at what our minds do when we are observing our breath. With most of us what our mind does is wander off. We don't have to be rigid and strict with our minds, just surf over the thoughts which appear. However, we need a surfing board of meditation to ride on waves of thoughts. Keep Meditating

Watch your feelings as though they are waves created by passing boat

We all have observed that our feelings like sadness, anger, excitement or loneliness directly affect our daily life. Some days when we get up in the morning we feel low and aimless, another day when we have a goal we feel excited about it. For example when someone has remarked, " that you are not good enough" we feel low, but another day when we get a positive remark we are happy. Can someone's remark affect us? Can an external factor generate a feeling that can snatch our natural self? Yes for quite a few of us. Watch your feelings as though they are the waves created by passing by boat. How do we achieve this state? Meditation is one way to help us learn to be more aware and accepting of our emotions. Dealing effectively with emotions is a key leadership skill." Keep Meditating
