The Power Within

Fate and destitute is nothing but the result of our accumulated past Karma. Getting parents, family, friend, spouse, offspring and environment are the matter of fate. These are predestined on the basis of our Karma, even before taking the birth on the earth. We can see someone gets more than his efforts, and at the same point someone gets less than his efforts. These fluctuations have been created by our past Karma. We complain and blame God if anything goes wrong in our life. In fact, God is not responsible for any kind of happenings with us at any point of time. It is we who are solely responsible for what the things are happening in our life. How the creator for all the creatures can be injustice with anyone? God has gifted the extra facility to the human being in the form of FREE WILL. All other creatures are bounded by their Karma and deprived of the FREE WILL. Although the human are bounded by the Karma, yet has the possibility to get rid of his bounded Karma by his Fr...

Faith and fear cannot stand together; the way water and fire. All the animals including human live in fear of some kinds. Animals do not have choice but to live in fear. Fear of death is very common. Fear of death is what animals make run. Deer need to run faster than tiger to survive, and tiger need to run faster than deer to have food for him to survive. Everyone needs to run to survive himself from the mouth of death. Nature does not favor any creature. Fear what makes animals alert. Animal`s fears are temporary and situational, they cannot imagine and hence they cannot have fear for future. They have only fear in the present. Human fears are multitudes. Human can imagine and visualize the future things, but animals cannot. This extra facility can help the human to entrap in infinite fear without reason and also can release one from the fear by developing the faith . The fear of any kind paralyzes the faculty of reason, destroys the faculty of imagination, kills off self-rel...

Indra, the king of gods, asked the cosmic architect Vishwakarma to build him a palace that would befit his stature as a king. Every time, Vishwakarma completed his construction, Indra says it is not meeting my stature, build it grander. Over and over again, Vishwakarma tried to build a grander palace, but nothing satisfied Indra. In exasperated, Vishwakarma approached Brahma to get some recourse. Brahma invoked Vishnu. Vishnu took a form of a boy and decided to visit Indra`s palace. On arriving, Indra asked the purpose of the boy visit to his palace. The boy replied, “I want to see how your palace is better than others Indra”. Indra surprised, “Other Indra”! There is no other Indra, I am only one. The boy replied,” there are multiple Indras in the parallel world; there were numerous Indra before you as well. They all have constructed palace, and they all claim that their palace is grander and unique. You are only a grain in Indra beach. There would be numerous Indra in future who wo...

Time is equal for everyone. It is a natural concept. Nature does not show any favoritism towards any creatures. Unlike our cultural concept, we cannot manipulate the natural concept. The best way to get the maximum out of the nature is to make the rhythm with the nature. Time is one of them. In the same amount of time 24 hours in a day, some get the maximum work done and satisfaction and others not. The planning of the day makes a difference between the performers and non-performers. Let us plan our day to get the maximum out of the day? 1.     Take a paper and pencil, you can use smart cell as well for this purpose. 2.     Write down all items you want to perform on next day before retiring for the bed. Label priority on the work items. 3.       After waking up, go through the work items. 4.     Tick marks with remarks if any on the completed items as the day passes. 5.     At the end of the...

There are only two reasons for any person to be happy or unhappy. These two  are internal and external reasons.   We can see many persons, who are affluent, possessing all kinds of luxuriant; still they live a stressful and unhappy life.   Many healthy and dashing people also lead an unhappy and stressful life. These are the external factors. These external factors cannot guarantee us to make us happy and live in peace. According to a survey, the money help us only 10% in our happiness. Another factor is the internal factors, especially our thought process. Inherently, the internal factor is very pure and pious. Kids are unaware about the external factors and hence their internal factors are intact. Kids are found in natural happiness, it does not matter; he/she is born in an indigent family or an affluent family, whether he/she is boy or girl. If sleeping and feeding are appropriate for them, then they will always be in happy and giggling. Scientis...

The human brain has been blessed with the special feature of Imagination which is bereft in other creatures. Human can visualize and imagine due to his frontal cortex in his brain. It has been determined that there are from 10,000,000,000 to 14,000,000,000 nerve cells in the human cerebral cortex, and we know that these are arranged in definite patterns. These arrangements are not haphazard. They are orderly. That is very powerful. By this power human can remove his fear by developing faith, and also chances are there to amplify his fear. Faith and fear cannot stay together. Also the negativity and positivity do not stay together. Dr. Alexander Graham Bell, and Dr. Elmer R. Gates, observed that every human brain is both a broadcasting and receiving station for the vibration of thought. Through the medium of the ether, in a fashion similar to that employed by the radio broadcasting principle, every human brain is capable of picking up vibrations of thought which are being released b...

Published in Dainik Awantika, 18 Feb 2013 गंगा भारत की सबसे पवित्र नदी मानी जाती है। गंगा को माँ करके सम्मान दिया जाता है। गंगा स्वर्ग से उतरकर पृथ्वी लोक आती है, और फिर पताल लोक, और  पुन: स्वर्ग लोक चली जाती है। इसतरह गंगा तीनो लोको में बहती है। विभिन्न-विभिन्न पौराणिक कथाएँ यह बताती है कि गंगा स्नान करने से या पितृ के राख को गंगा में श्राद्ध करने से मुक्ति का द्वार खुल जाता है, और स्नान करनेवाला स्वर्ग में निवास करता है। भागीरथी अपने परदादा सागर को मुक्ति दिलाने और उनके अधूरी सपने को पूर्ण करने के उद्देश्य से गंगा को पृथ्वी पर लाये। तबसे यह परंपरा चलती आ रही है। उस समय जब पृथ्वी पर गंगा आई होगी, तो उस समय के लोग भी पवित्र होंगे, और मुक्ति के लिए सारे पुण्य काम भी किये होंगे, और अनजाने में यदि कोई गलती हो गयी होगी तो गंगा स्नान से क्षमा हो जाएँगी। हड्डी की राख को गंगा में प्रवाहित किया जाता है। और इसमें उर्वरक शक्ति भरपूर होती है। गंगा की पानी का इस्तेमाल भारत के बहुताय इलाको में सिचाई के काम में लाया जाता है। हो सकता हो, कि इस परंपरा का मकसद भारत के कृषि ...

  Lord Shiva is found in deep meditation in a secluded place. And whosoever tries to disrupt His meditation with an evil purpose, He opens His third eye and incinerates those into ashes. He is detached from the household things. His power lies in His capacity of deep meditation and detachment. He has unparalleled Tap, tap means heat or fire. The things surrounded by Him are solid or stable viz snow at Kailash Mountain, His locked hair, Bunyan tree etc. His locked hair is the embodiment of His controlled mind. It is the power of His Tap, made Him Mahadev. He is known as the God of destruction. He is widely worshiped God in Hinduism. If He is God of destruction, then why, He is worshiped so widely?   Lord Shiva is an embodiment of the soul. Soul is pure and pious. He incinerates all the negativity, who tries to defile the soul. He destroys all the negativity like envious, hatred, jealous, ego, unnecessary attachment etc. His body is smeared with ashes, it means, if we bu...

How we can forget our school prayer of goddess Sarasvati, the goddess of knowledge.   This tradition still persists in schools. The right of education is a fundamental right in India (article 21-A).   Government schools are there in India at large scale. Government has also increased salary to the government employees including government teachers at handsome level. Private schools have also been permitted to open in India at very large scale. Despite the government school, parents are more inclined towards private schools, and ready to pay high fees to the private schools. It has become tough to take admission in private schools. Most parents’ measure that the high fees mean high quality education and it has also become the social status. The teachers in private school get very less salary in comparison to government teachers, still people are not interested to take the admission in government school with minimal fees, and rather they struggle to take admission in priva...

  There is no limitation of our desires. We fulfill one desire with the invitation of another one. This is not the desire which comes by others opinions. The real desire comes within. One desire breeds another desire. The tendency of desires is to get influenced by both internal and external factors. We are not body and mind, we are soul. Body and mind are bound to cease, but soul is eternal. As Bhagwat Gita (2-62, 63) says:-- While contemplating the objects of the senses, a person develops attachment for them, and from such attachment desire develops, and from desire anger arises. From anger, delusion arises, and from delusion bewilderment of memory. When memory is bewildered, intelligence is lost, and when intelligence is lost, one falls down again into the material pool. The desire compels us to indulge in different-different Karma to fulfill our desire. That creates our material nature for the next birth. Until and unless all our desires are fulfilled and our all Karm...
