Ask, Investigate, and Realize

Realization is not a secret that is written in books. Realization is a gift from the Divine. All this magic that happens on planet earth, is created and preserved by a power that is beyond human comprehension. Because humanity doesn't know the Truth about this power, we term this power as the Creator or God. Then we confuse the creative power and give our God names, shapes and forms as we once again sink into the myth of ignorance. Unless we overcome the myth, we will never realize the Truth. Unless we realize 'who we are not', we will never realize 'who we truly are' and unless we realize the Truth, we will continue to suffer due to our ignorance. There are several established methods that...

Tame the Rascal Mind

We seek happiness and fulfilment but we look for it in the wrong places and in the process, misinterpret what true happiness is. The mind that we rely so much on, plays an active role in sabotaging our efforts in finding true happiness. The mind makes us desire and crave. We search for happiness outside. We become miserable and disappointed when our desires are not fulfilled. But the truth is that we are not the mind, the body and the ego. We may have a mind, but we are not the mind. We know that the body dies but the one alive inside the body doesn’t die. We are the life energy that gives life to this body-mind complex and appears as a part of...

We don’t have a Soul… We are the Soul!

There is so much said about the Soul and its connection with the Divine, still we don’t realize that we are alive because of our Soul. We do everything else but forget to discover this truth. Various religions all over the world and famous philosophers of the past and of the present have advocated different views about it but the whole concept of the Soul remains an enigma. The myth of the Soul is one of the greatest mysteries in the world. People are unsure about the existence and reincarnation of the Soul. These questions have many speculations, but till date, they have not been demystified. Everybody talks of the Soul, but not many know the true meaning of it. Just like the gold ring, the...

What is the Purpose of Life?

Many people find this to be a strange question – why did we come to earth? Why did we take birth? Did it happen just by chance? Nothing happens by chance. It all happens by design. We didn't land upon the earth without rhyme or reason. Our birth is controlled by the Law of Karma. Once born, we are in command of our actions. Either we can drift through life and reach our end, or we can discover the purpose of life. What is the purpose of life? Life is the journey between birth and death. Neither can we control birth nor can we control death. But we are in charge of everything that happens in between. If we don't discover the purpose of life, then...

A Product called Life

When we go to buy a product, what does the salesman do? He tries to explain what the product is. If we are buying a mobile phone, he explains how the mobile has two special cameras on either side. If it is a laptop, he explains how it is the lightest laptop in the world, with a feather touchscreen. Whatever be the product, we try to understand the features of the product before we buy it. If we are buying a massage chair, we will compare it with other chairs in terms of cost, functions, warranty and whatever else we seek from it. But what about life? It is one product we can’t choose. We do not decide where we will be born and when; who...

Who we are and What we are made of

If we truly want to live, we must do an anatomy of the body to understand who we are and what we are made of. We have 5 sense organs, eyes to see, ears to hear, a nose to smell, a tongue to taste and skin to feel. But that's not all that we are. If we try to understand our body further, we have the epidermis which is the outer layer of skin. If we peel the skin, it reveals the dermis that has tissue, blood vessels, hair follicles, and sweat glands. But what lies below the skin? If we cut our skin, we see blood. We also see flesh, muscles, and bone. Didn't we learn in school that we have a brain that has...

Mind – A Subtle Part of Our Existence

Life is impossible without thoughts. The moment a person is brain dead and the thinking process of a human being ends, then everything comes to a standstill. It is the mind that creates thoughts that lead to feelings and then actions. If we truly want to live, we must understand the 'mind'. What is the mind? It is a thought factory. It is constantly producing thoughts. It produces one thought practically every second and this can sometimes be up to 50,000 thoughts a day. While we are all aware of our mind, have we ever seen it? The Mind seems to exist. It worries and it wanders. But where is the mind, we cannot find. While it is commonly believed that the mind is in the...

There is No Warranty for Life

One may take insurance for their life, but the fact is that life has no warranty. Nobody can guarantee life. You may get a one-year warranty for your washing machine or a three-year warranty for your car, but life has no warranty. It can't  be replaced by anybody on earth. Birth and death are not in our hands. When, how, and to whom we are born is not in our control, just as death is in the hands of the Divine. The warranty for life is only for the present moment. Therefore, we must learn to live life in the 'now', moment by moment. Most of us live taking life for granted, believing that we too will live at least 70 years which is the average...

Is there a recipe to be happy?

Everybody wants to be happy, but not everybody is. We live life like a merry-go-round as we pass happiness and sorrow in cycles. Just like there is loss and gain, there is pleasure and pain. Man hasn't understood the meaning of true happiness. Therefore, he constantly desires pleasure. Happiness is not a product that we can acquire. It is not a person that we can live with, nor is it a place we can go to. Happiness is a state of being. Therefore, the moment we say, 'I want happiness', we fail to be happy. Desire ultimately leads to disappointment. As we fulfill our need, our greed takes over and thus we are never happy. Is there a way to happiness? Yes! If we take an...

There is a way to take charge of each day!

Each day is precious, and the most important thing, if we really want to learn how to live life, is to understand how we must start each day. Technically, the day starts at midnight when the clock declares that the date has changed. But our real day starts when we wake up in the morning. What do most of us do once we wake up? We jump into the day. We give over the day to our mind and we lose the day! The mind picks up all the chaos that we went to sleep with and starts bombarding us with thoughts. We visit something that happened the previous day, which may have a connection with our past. Then we jump into something that we have...
