The Power Within

Our mind cannot distinguish between big and small problems or thoughts. Whatever comes into our mind, our mind takes it as a task and processes it with the same sincerity. And stuck with that task and continuously revolves around it until and unless it gets the solution of it or that problem is superseded with a bigger one. Who decides which problem is big or small…? We decide and convince our mind that this problem is the bigger problem than others; this task has higher priority than others, and our amenable mind starts executing it the way it is convinced. Our mind cannot stay even a single moment without thinking about something. Thinking is the nature of mind. In a normal state, we cannot avoid it. When our mind becomes incapable to find any convincing solution of the problem revolving in the mind for a longer time, the mind becomes restlessness. People try to find the solution of that restlessness in either wine or divine. Wine drains our energy and makes us mentally ...

India got a grand success in producing learned workers to a very large extent which can roll a business or project or idea but cannot give a new dimension to it. Nevertheless, somewhat, we have not succeeded in producing experts who can give a pristine dimension to business, project or idea and can drag it to a next level. Still, we wait for the instruction of the foreign experts in taking our steps forward. It is not because; we have less brain or having some learning incapability. In fact, Indians have great learning capability, due to this, India is dominating the world in the service sector especially IT industry. However, those capabilities have been used to create workforces of great workers, not experts. And we are not becoming experts in one technology or application or domain, because of the instability of ours in one project or application or domain or technology for a longer time. After this errant jump, we become a jack of all trades, but master of none. We en...

The constitution of India was accepted and adopted by the constituent assembly on 26 November 1949 and after two months; it was implemented on 26 Jan 1950. The best thing came out of this constitution who gives an ultimate power to every citizen of this country is the fundamental rights which have been mentioned in article 14 to 32 of the constitution. It is so powerful that – if you think that your fundamental right is in danger, you can directly challenge the Supreme Court and Supreme Court is bound to listen to it. That is great news - but, do we have that much courage and confidence to execute our power and rights…? Suppose we are going on the road, a traffic police stops us. Most of us get disturbed because we do not know what the power we have as a citizen of this country. According to article 20 and 22 of the fundamental rights, we have the power to ask our offenses, and that is his duty to explain you about your offenses to your satisfaction. If he fails to do so, you...

  Since the inception of the civilization, India has always been a center of attraction for the foreign invaders, because of its richness and abundance. Persian, Greece, Arabs, Turk, Mongol, Portuguese, Dutch and French came with their own ambitions and motives. They invaded, looted, plundered, massacred, exploited and ruled over us the way they wanted. We fought, but something went wrong and this mighty country became the slave of the handful people of foreign invaders. The major reason was – we were divided into states and we did not have one constitution of this country which could connect and collide the forces of the isolated states which could stand and fight against the foreign forces. The first person who understood the need for one constitution of this country was – the great Chanakya. According to him – the nation or kingdom must run through the power of the constitution, not through the power of the king or any individuals. He challenged the ferocious Nanda...

Religion or any particular faith about someone or something is very private matter. It cannot be made public and the base of any sort of public conflicts because one`s religion and faith is different than others. Religion is the medium of the realization of the truth. There could be various mediums of the same realization. One could be a realized person without following any existing religion. He can deduce his own path for the realization. When you get the realization, you will not find any difference between one human being to another. The different religions, faiths, creeds, and communities become very small. It is the namesake only. At the higher level of thought and understanding, it cannot be the cause of any bloodshed and conflicts. But, most of the wars of the world have taken place on the basis of religions. It had started at the inception of the civilization, and it still continues. Surprisingly, we still fight in the name of religion in the modern world of global...

No matter what you do, there would always be oppositions, contractions, and conflicts. There is no person existed on this earth who lived his life without any oppositions, contractions, and conflicts. Even the most influential person of this world cannot convince and please everyone by his deeds, thoughts, and ideas. People would find something even in the noblest work done by someone and start opposing and criticizing. They would try to prove why they are right in their views and you would try to prove yours. This contention to prove who is right and who is wrong drains massive time and energy. And at last, the outcome remains disappointing. If you involve yourself in persuading your opponent to accept and support your views, ideas, deeds and your way of life, there would be nothing, but struggle and conflicts. The more you try to persuade them, the more contradictions and conflicts occur. You would be crippled. Your natural flow would disrupt. You will find perve...

Lord Mahavira sacrificed everything - his kingdom, his family, all the luxury, his clothes, even his hairs in order to attain Kaivalya Gyan, the supreme knowledge. Many people follow the lifestyle of Lord Mahavira. They also want to attain Kaivalya Gyan like him. There is nothing wrong in this attempt. But by simply sacrificing clothes and luxury like Lord Mahavira would not guarantee to attain what Mahavira attained, if you are not comfortable with this lifestyle. That was the Mahavira`s way of attaining the supreme knowledge and getting salvation.  Lord Mahavira, did not copy anyone`s lifestyle. He did what suited for him. For lord Mahavira, that was the comfortable way to spend his life like that. That was his nature. And in his true nature, he attained that supreme knowledge. It does not mean that for attaining the supreme knowledge, you have to sacrifice your clothes, and sleep on the earth and give other many kinds of torture to your physical body. No need to be...
