Purpose of life..

Dear Julia,

Many people talk about the higher purpose of life and our reason for incarnating. This has always been so confusing to me, for most of us seem to be busy pursuing material possessions and the accumulation of wealth. Is there any higher purpose to life? If so, how can an individual discover his or her life purpose in order to pursue it? I'm sure no one wants to leave this world not having fulfilled their highest purpose. I would be grateful if you shared your thoughts on this matter.

-Muralidhar

Dear Muralidhar,

There are indeed all sorts of ideas about the higher purpose of life on Earth. Most people look to religion for such explanations. I'm in harmony with some of the teachings of all the major religions, such as the Christian focus on love and faith and the Buddhist belief in karma and reincarnation. I'm in greatest harmony with the oldest religion, Hinduism, and its core teachings that we are all part of God, and through learning and growing via the cycle of birth, death and rebirth, we can progress toward enlightenment and eventually remerge with our Divine Source.

My personal views are based on the information I've received from Spirit throughout twenty years of spiritual reading work in combination with research into the near death experience and life between life therapy. (In life between life therapy, people are regressed to the period between lifetimes to review their plans for their next lives as well as all sorts of other very deep spiritual issues.) The main tenets of all of these sources mesh well, which suggests that even though I may not be able to firmly grasp the entire picture, I am honing in on some big truths.

The two main life purpose themes that emerge time after time in my own experience as a channeler of Spirit and in the NDE and LBL research are the pursuit of knowledge and wisdom and the development of an ever greater capacity for selfless love. While we all share this general life purpose, how that translates for each individual is of course unique. I believe we make our own plans for each life before incarnating, and that these plans are based on the karmic lessons and issues of previous lives combined with the desire to move to higher levels of learning and development.

The higher purpose for our life does not equate to a set plan, however, for we always have free will. In fact, once we get here in the physical, it can be very challenging to stay on track. This is why life on Earth is such a powerful learning experience: when we are plunged into this dramatic situation where we have to find a way to survive and get all our physical and emotional needs met, we tend to forget about the higher truths and lessons our soul is hoping to master.

The analogy of Earth as a school is popular because it is so apt. When we first begin the incarnation cycle, our lessons are simpler and more mundane in nature. There are people whose goal is to simply learn how to work with their divine creative power in order to create the material things they need to physically survive and enjoy life. Often when people graduate from learning how to physically survive, they spend a lifetime or two "playing" with their newfound power to manifest "the good life." Eventually, this naturally gets boring and they start to ponder deeper questions and issues, at which point they begin a conscious spiritual journey. (They've been on a spiritual journey the whole time, of course, but they may not have been so conscious about it.)

To denigrate others' goals and values is a bit like a college student sneering at kids who are just learning arithmetic; we've all had to go through the same basic lessons, so just because those classes no longer challenge or interest us is no reason to put them down. In fact, I've often seen that people who have been through a very difficult journey in life are being prepared to fulfill a very high life purpose. Their highest destiny is to move through the experience to the other side of it so they can become a source of help and healing to other people who are going through the same thing. In order to help people, we have to understand what they're going through, so people destined to become great healers may go through years of darkness and misery.

In some ways, we are all always living our higher purpose, for whatever we're going through is what we need to experience in order to grow into a higher level of experience. Thus we see people who have been touched by cancer creating cancer charities and support groups, and people who have lived some very dark years battling addiction becoming mentors and healers for other addicts.

To determine your own higher purpose, it's wise to listen to your own life story and trust that it is leading you to the knowledge, experience and wisdom you need. It's also important to honor and trust your passions and interests, for these are also trying to guide you to fulfill your destiny. This is how my own life's work came about: I experienced the death of my first love at a very tender age, which made me all too familiar with grief and encouraged me to develop great compassion for the grieving. I also had amazing spiritual experiences that produced unwavering faith in an afterlife. As my own journey ultimately led me to profound healing, I developed a strong desire to help others discover the peace I had found.

Perhaps our highest destiny is to find or create something good out of our suffering. It doesn't matter exactly what form it takes, the point is to transmute the darkness we encounter into something light. With this in mind, some key questions to help you determine your own life purpose include:

What unusual or extraordinary experiences have I suffered through? How can I turn my own struggles into something positive? What am I most passionate about or interested in?

Please note that your higher purpose in life does not necessarily relate to what you do to earn a living. Since someone has to build the houses and grow the food, what people do for a living should never be taken as a sign of how evolved they are spiritually. By way of a very famous example, someone can be the very embodiment of wisdom and unconditional love but work as a humble carpenter. In fact, having a simple, straight forward sort of job can bless us with the time and mental energy to pursue higher aims.

Also, having psychic experiences does not necessarily mean you are meant to become a psychic professional. I often hear from people who have been having psychic experiences and want to know what they're "supposed" to do with them. Since we are all psychic to some degree, that's a bit like saying that lately we've been hearing noises and we want to know what we're supposed to do with our ability to hear. What we do with our gifts and talents all depends on what we want and/or feel called to do.

To determine your higher purpose and find a way to fulfill it, you must listen to your intuitions, insights and conscience, for it is through these channels that you receive guidance and direction from your soul. The more you work with processes like meditation in order to clearly hear your higher self, the more you will tend to fulfill your higher plan for this lifetime. With this in mind, perhaps the most direct and powerful way to determine your life purpose is to engage in life between life therapy

First remove the
darkness of sin
from your heart....
Go not to the temple
to bow down your
head in prayer,
First learn to bow
in humility before
your fellowmen...
Go not to the temple

is downtrodden.....
Go not to the temple
to ask for forgiveness
for your sins,
First forgive from your
heart those who have
sinned against you.

Nothing is forever, including the pain of loss

After experiencing a devastating loss, if you’ve allowed yourself to feel the legitimate pain it’s brought and not sought to avoid feeling it, things slowly start to improve. We wake one morning to find there’s something in the day we’re actually looking forward to; or someone says something funny and we actually laugh; or we find ourselves able to plan things again, even if only a trip to the grocery store. But there’s no definite timetable for this.

Stuck in grief, unable to move on.

Sometimes this happens because we actually become reluctant to surrender our grief even after it’s run its proper course, believing the pain of loss is the only thing keeping us connected to our loved one, or that to feel happy again would be to diminish the significance of the relationship we once enjoyed. But neither is true. Even when people we love die, our relationships with them do not. We continue to have feelings about them, memories of things they did, imaginings of things they might say were they with us now. Just because the pain of losing them diminishes with time, their importance to us need not. Normal grief is like a roller coaster: there are ups and downs, moments of pain intermixed with relief.

Why do we suffer when we lose those we love?

I think the true answer is because we believe we can’t be happy without them. And yet I often think the only reason the pain of loss abates at all is that we do become convinced we can start living life with a new perspective, be normal and happy again—just slowly and unevenly.

I have learned silence from the talkative, toleration from the intolerant, and kindness from the unkind; yet strange i am ungrateful to those teachers.

Spiritual Nugget

In spiritual life there is no room for compromise. Awakening is not negotiable; we cannot bargain to hold on to things that please us while relinquishing things that do not matter to us. A lukewarm yearning for awakening is not enough to sustain us through the difficulties involved in letting go. It is important to understand that anything that can be lost was never truly ours, anything that we deeply cling to imprisons us.

Time is a great healer

Suffering with time remains no longer a tragedy. It becomes the fuel that molds us into better human being.

How many stars are there in the sky?

Hey someone asked me shairy do you know how many stars are there in the sky?

A star which if gets hidden by clouds comes to me when my heart calls for it

A star which guides me and shows the right path to follow in tough time

A star which I feel is my companion forever

A star which is mine only mine my angel star giving me peace and harmony

Let there be no depression in our lives.......

Dealing with Darkness by Elsa Joy Bailey

Depression can grab you like an angry dog, leaving you limp, worn and devoid of spirit. Most of us have experienced this life-spoiler at times. I know I have. The question is: how do we work our way out of it? Trapped in fear or angst or despair, is it possible for us to reset our emotional barometer? You know it is, because almost every human being alive has done it. And we’ve done it more than once, because dark feelings are like molasses on the kitchen floor: our feet can get stuck there in an instant. You may already know some of the steps we use to transcend dark times. They are always counter-intuitive; meaning they seem, in the midst of sad feelings, like false movements. It’s important to remember, however, that they are not false movements – they just seem like it. The bottom line? Do them anyway. The healing principle is simple: our task is to help our mind shift out of its temporarily diminished view of life. To do that, we need to take a stride in a different direction – towards thoughts that are larger than the small self in which we lie, curled and spent. Simple Step #1: Cry it out. Let your tears fall, and listen to their story with compassion. Simple Step #2: Exercise. This helps because it releases endorphins that pour healing energy onto our constricted thinking. Simple Step #3: Do a kindness for another person. There is no way to do a kindness without it reverberating back onto yourself. No matter how sodden we feel, doing a kindness cauterizes suffering. Simple Step #4: Monitor your thoughts. When you catch yourself licking your wounds for too long, you can pause and simply decide to change the subject. Yes, you can do this. Play some music; listen to a standup comic; read a poem by the great mystic Rumi. In other words, enlarge your universe. The instant you become willing to do that you begin to realize – much like our astronauts did when they viewed our tiny beautiful earthstar from thousands of miles away - that life is larger than one small self. In that light, our tiny, individual pool of suffering is seen as a slight matter compared to the simple majesty and mystery of life itself. Expand your thinking, and any answers you need in your life will come toward you like a kitten tiptoeing up to you on soft paws. Tears. Exercise. Kindness. Music. Laughter. Change the topic. Try it.

Does money brings us peace and happiness.....?

Money gives one a sense of freedom and ownership. We believe that with money we can own anything, that we can put a price tag on anybody’s

Money creates a false sense of independence (Getty Images)

services.

Ownership of something means total control of its existence. When we buy a piece of land, we feel that we own it, although the land continues to exist even after the owner is no more. How can we own something that outlives us?

Money also gives the idea that we are powerful and independent, blinding us to the fact that we live in a world of interdependence. We depend on farmers, cooks, drivers and the services of so many people around us. Even an expert surgeon cannot operate by herself. She depends on others. Because we pay for their services, we overlook the fact that we depend on them.

If we look at why most people with money are arrogant we will find it is because of the feeling of independence that money brings. The awareness of dependence on the other hand makes one humble. The basic human quality of humility is taken away by a false feeling of independence.

Can money really reflect the worth of a person? We cannot put a value to human life. Wealth can be attained through one's skills, abilities, inheritance, or through corrupt means. The means of attaining wealth brings its own consequences. The very motive for corruption is peace and happiness. Yet peace and happiness remain elusive when the means are corrupt.

As possession of money creates the illusion of independence, money is often referred to as maya. A Sanskrit phrase sums it up: Miyate anaya iti maya – That which can be measured is maya.

On the other hand, some people blame money for all the ills in society. There are others who even consider it an evil. Just as possessing money brings arrogance, rejecting it too makes one arrogant. Some people who renounce money take pride in their poverty to draw attention and sympathy.

However, ancient sages honoured money or maya as a part of the divine and transcended the grip of its illusion. They knew that when we reject or hate something, we can never transcend it.

They honoured wealth as Goddess Lakshmi, the consort of Narayana. She is born out of yoga. It is yoga that transforms the bad karma and brings out latent skills and talents. It also brings up ashtasiddhis, the eight perfections and nav nidhis, the nine wealths.

Yoga helps one move from arrogance to self-confidence, meekness to humility, dependence to interdependence, from craving for freedom to the recognition of unboundedness and from a limited ownership to oneness with the whole.

\When people lack faith in the Divine or in their own abilities or in the goodness of society they suffer from a deep sense of insecurity. As a result all that appears to provide security is money. They rely on something that is not certain, and end up getting upset. Uncertainty causes craving for stability.

The world is of change; the Self is of non-change. We have to rely on the non-change and accept the change. This is like perceiving the real as unreal and unreal as real. In fact, all miseries are unreal. A wise man knows that happiness is real, as it is our very nature. Unhappiness is unreal because it is inflicted by memory. When we see everything as a dream, then we abide in our true nature -- love, joy and peace. We then understand that money is not all-important. Values, sense of belonging, love and care are more important.

singing down the storm.......

Singing Down the Storm by Vicki Woodyard

There is a way we can sing down the storm, but perhaps it is the unlikeliest way you can imagine. The only way I have found to do this is to be authentic in the moment. Being real is being courageous. I have had reason to study storms, believe you me. The first one hit me when I was thirty-two years old. My daughter was diagnosed with a fatal childhood cancer right before she turned four. Right after she turned seven, we buried her in the dress she wore on her birthday. How did I sing down that storm? I’m not sure I did. Maybe I managed to keep breathing, but that was about it. I took to the spiritual path with a vengeance after her death. We owed money, our son was angry about losing a sister, and my husband’s job demanded all that he had and more. I was smack dab in the middle of a very long storm. I have always been honest to my core and I do believe that is a kind of singing. I wrote oneliners the whole time my child was undergoing treatment. We would be with her as she got chemo and then in the middle of the night, while my husband slept, I would hold the emesis basin as she vomited for several hours. Daylight would come and I would submerge myself in getting my son off to school, keeping house and paying bills. We spent the minimum and paid the minimum on our credit card bills. My daughter’s treatments at St. Jude’s were free, but not the incredible nursing expenses that we incurred during her last days. I sang down the storm with my children as my daughter taught us the true meaning of love. She sat and colored and watched The Brady Bunch and wondered why she was so often sick. On the last trip to the hospital, she asked to look out the window at the sky and the trees. No doubt that is what sang to her in that moment. The spiritual path was singing to me about the great mysteries of life and love. The Book of Mirdad says, You live that you may learn to love. You love that you may learn to live. No other lesson is required of man. I spent many hours reading books about the inner journey. I was going on it, ready or not. Years passed and in 2000, I had another storm to sing down. My husband was diagnosed with a fatal cancer as well. Multiple myeloma is an incurable cancer of the bone marrow. I was devastated. He had been given less than three years to live. A familiar figure - exactly how long our daughter lived. At first I didn’t sing; I was too busy crying and cursing. It was honest, though. As always, I tried to be myself in the midst of the mayhem. Finally, I took hold. I became a caregiver for the second time. I knew the tide would eventually sweep him out to sea, but until it did, I would cling to the shore with him. He wanted to live, not only for himself, but for my son and I. In Christmas of 2004, he left this world. I had sung myself through two storms of my life. As I said, being myself is what has brought me through. I still have anxiety attacks and feelings of loneliness, but I also have the strength of who I really am to carry me through. The notes I write and record are all I have to offer. Two angels would be awfully proud that I still have some harmony left to share.

Rise together...

It's a beautiful time to be alive
And the long walk home is peopled...
We, are everywhere.
Yet the struggle to surrender is where we walk alone.
So the next you fall
look
to either side where you lie
and take the hand
of your dear Sister or Brother
whose own face is muddied.
We can rise together,
even if we fall alone-
for it's a beautiful time to be alive
even
on this long walk home.

Blissful life--its in our hands

Choose Your Frequency by Ann Albers

Realize that on your planet Earth, there are as many frequencies available to you as there are stations on your radio or televion - actually, an infinite number. These run through you all the time. Your life experience depends on which ones you choose to tune into. For example, each one of you can tap into the frequency of gratitude at any given moment. You can look around and say, Okay, I have some worries, but I eat three meals a day and have a roof over my head, and so I am blessed! You can say, Okay, someone is a challenge in my life, but at least I have grown into awareness that I want better treatment. There is ALWAYS something to be grateful for if you look. And if you look for things to be grateful for, you will find more. You can tap into the frequency of beauty at any given time. But, you say, what if my life is a mess? Well, dear ones, have you ever seen the beauty and wonder in a blade of grass or in the perfection of the sky above, or better yet, in the eyes of another? Beauty is always available to be found. You can tap into the frequency of harmony in spite of chaos. Suppose you find yourself in a place where those around you are stressed out. Breathe deeply and tap into God's deep peace with each breath. The eye of the hurricane is calm in spite of the chaos all around it. Most importantly, dear ones, you can always tap into Love because you are made of it. Whether or not those around you are kind, you can make kind choices, choices that honor your true spirit. You can choose to speak truthfully and with compassion. You can choose to be in situations that uplift you and leave situations that do not. You can choose to honor self without judgment of others. Choose to tap into the frequencies that make your life blissful, dear ones. Anger, sadness, jealousies - those exist at all times as well. They can be messages from your spirit to be acknoweldged and used to change your behaviors (for example to speak up, reach out for comfort, create what you want, etc.) but once you receive the message, it is time to tune back into the energies that give you the kindest experience of your soul's journey here upon the planet Earth.

Love Your Body by Ann Albers

We are experiencing unusual effects in your physical bodies as a result of the increased vibrational frequency on our planet. Understand that your body is a beautiful container for your soul. As your soul's frequency increases (and it cannot be avoided during these times), anything less than that light in the body is being brought to the surface for love, acknowledgement, cleansing and clearing. In a way, the light is doing a beautiful job of housekeeping in your cells. Take heart - this is a wonderful thing! Your cells are like computer programs that store a history of your emotions, unresolved pains, stresses, etc. If you have not allowed yourself to be guided by your heart, your body will start to cry for attention, for it is your soul's last resort to getting you to listen. For example, if you are experiencing back pain, perhaps you have felt unsupported in the past, and now it is time to support yourself a bit by defining clear boundaries and taking time to do the things you love. If you are experiencing tightness in the throat and jaws, what is it that you wish to express but have been holding back? If you get headaches, there is likely to be wisdom that you are not yet owning about yourself. If you experience female problems, do you fail to take time to honor the feminine spirit within by resting, nurturing and giving yourself time to just BE? We could go on, but as you know, many human beings have created wonderful references that link the body and emotional patterns. However, what you CAN do to heal yourselves is to remember this one principle: It is your soul, your mind and your emotions that define the body. If you are experiencing tension, stresses or pains, go into a meditation and ask the part of your body under stress, Who is in there and what are you trying to tell me? You might be surprised to find that you at a younger age are in that part of your body, and that you still need love. If so, imagine giving that part of yourself love. If you have allowed another person to define you, control or manipulate you, you might find them in the body. Ask their soul what they need to let go, and in spirit, give them what you can. Cut the cords. What if you find that there are others in there? Beings that you do not recognize? Well, these might simply be faces for the beliefs that you hold. Ask them what they want. Acknowledge their needs as valid, and give them an invitation to move on. The process is the same no matter what. 1. In meditation ask, Who is in there and what do you need? 2. Acknowledge the need of whomever you see as VALID. Do not argue! Something or someone that you let under your skin is crying out for love, and the body is mirroring this. It might be you, another or a metaphorical face for your beliefs. Acknowledge the need as VALID. 3. Negotiate with whomever you see to figure out how you can fill that need in a way that does not compromise your own beliefs. Remember, all this is done on the INSIDE, in meditation. Many of you will be surprised that if you do this on a regular basis and keep your promises that you have negotiated, your body will transform itself! In the words of one of your rather famous singers, All you need is love. We love you so very much! - the Angels

Everything is preplanned!

Really important meetings are planned by the souls long before the bodies see each other. These meetings occur when we reach a limit , when we need to die and be reborn emotionally.

That's Life !

My experience is that it's precisely the ones who don't know what to do with this life who are all hot and bothered about what they are going to do with another life.... As soon as you look at the world through an ideology you are finished. No reality fits an ideology. Life is beyond that. That is why people are always searching for a meaning to life.... Meaning is only found when you go beyond meaning. Life only makes sense when you perceive it as mystery and it makes no sense to the conceptualizing mind.

Circumstances tell me....

To cultivate patience through prayer, meditation and acceptance. Follow Supreme Power’s direction regarding when to stand still and when to move forward.

A thought pondering in my mind since morning

If you are not able to change the circumstances for long, then change yourself and accept the situation with different attitude .

"Power of Giving"

Today a unique thought came to my mind that why the movement we give someone something we start waiting when we will receive in return. Are not we more contended if we believe in “Law of Giving”. Law of giving means the more we give more we receive but there are certain conditions to this:
1. Unconditional Giving 2. There should not be any grudges
3. There should not be any feeling of loss while giving
The most powerful form of giving as per me is non material form of giving. This may be:
Attention, Appreciation, Compassion, Cooperation, Health, Knowledge, Fun/ Laughter, Leadership, Love, Skills, Time, Understanding, Wisdom etc.,
"Every act of giving is a strand in weaving a cloth of love and care."

My inspiration

“Waves are my inspiration, not because they rise and fall but each time they fall, they rise again”

food for thought

Its how you handle your troubles and problems that counts, not the trouble themselves !

My affirmation of the day!

I am alert to the shifting energies of each day, and am quick to adapt to new conditions. I flow with grace and allow the divine power to direct my every step.

Follow your dreams....

"Dreams are a starting point for many who wish to begin the spiritual journey to God and do it in the easiest possible way. Dreams taught me to face myself, let me see the future, and took me to the heavens of God."

"Dreams serve as a communication line between the invisible and visible worlds. or we can say between astral plane and earthal plane ....A dream is a real-life experience an individual has on another plane of God....We, in our true nature as Soul, are able to have experiences in a far-reaching panorama of life."

Thought of the day!

Do you feel weary and burdened with life? Give the load to God and let Him handle it. He is strong enough and He hears your prayers. He is always ready to help you.

My learnings of the day!

There are so many stances in our life : happiness, sorrow, tough times of trials, failures, Success. We keep on going through all in our life time. All these are put up in front of us to help us grow . eg.
We face trials in life to be strong; sorrows in life make us human, allows us to fit in other person shoes ; failures keep us humble; success is required to build up confidence ,to nurture the soul and body.
O lord ! thank you ! U keep me going!

My affirmations of the day

I go within to cultivate a new sense of power and confidence. Meditation brings the direction I need to define purpose of my life.

Early morning insight!

One depressing day can lead us towards early morning insight to led a life in different manner and can change our attitude towards tackling problem. Today i realized others treat us in a way we treat ourselves. If we do not respect ourself , if we keep on showing ourself weak, a person who can be easily overcomed; yes people will not respect us. They will overpower us and will not give the due importance. So let us start respecting ourself. We are the one who can portray orself the best. Try this you will see a change in the eyes of others.
Everybody has a right to live a respectable life...

The Big Question
There is one question that all children keep asking that drives some parents to the point of exasperation. “Why?” they keep asking. And when given an answer, they again ask, “Why?” – Why is the sky blue? Why do dogs bark? Why am I sick? Why do mommy and daddy not live together?
As children, we sometimes got satisfying answers to some of our questions. But more often than not, we probably got answers that were really no answers at all – responses like: “Because that’s the way it is,” or “I don’t know.” Sometimes we maybe received religious answers, like: “Because God made it that way,” or “It’s a mystery,” or “It’s a miracle.”
Not finding answers, many of us stopped asking the most basic question of life that, as children, we knew to ask.
But not asking the question did not make it go away. The question was repressed, but the need to find answers to ‘Why?’ keeps haunting us, and unconsciously pushing us to find the answers we need in order to live a meaningful life.
‘Why?’ is a search for meaning, an attempt to see the significance of things that are not obvious. Some of the answers are objective and impersonal. Then the question is about facts, like why the sky is blue. The blueness can be explained through physical facts, and that is the end of it.
But the big ‘WHY?’ is about life and its puzzling dramas. It is about pain and suffering, and their meaning. It is about separation and death. But more than anything, it is ultimately about ME – Why do I exist and what is the meaning of my experiences? These questions are soul searches, and can only be answered by developing soul consciousness.
Finding meaning does not eliminate pain and suffering, but removes the necessity for it. Understanding death does not endow us with physical immortality, but enables us to approach it with equanimity and peace. The meaning of a painful relationship does not heal the pain, but opens us to love again.
As far as we know, humans are the only species that feels driven to find meaning. We cannot help but seek it. Not responding to this deep inner urge is to attempt to function without soul.
Taking the Soul Journey develops soul consciousness and gives meaning to our lives.
Exercises:
1. Each evening take an inventory of your motives throughout the day.
2. Identify a recent important or emotional experience and explore the deeper meaning of it. Why did it happen TO YOU?
3. Seek silence and explore your deepest inner urges – the calling the you do not give enough attention.
wishing enlightment for all...

Problems in life

All the problems / difficulties we come through in life are the circumstances put through by our soul. These are the tests which our soul put us. Then why to ask for solutions from somebody just listen the voice of your inner soul, you will find the right path to follow . The teacher who gives us a question to solve, always knows its answer and he is the best person to make us understand how that can be solved. Listen to the voice of your inner soul you will never be confused for which way to follow . Our soul is our best consultant in material world ,our guiding light which can help us complete our life journey with contentment.

wishing all a life full of serenity...

Live for your words...

Upholding vachan is a deep rooted indic tradition.What happens when we do not keep our promise? We hurt another soul and the guilt inherent is carried forward onto next life with atman or soul. Why burden your future with deeds of this life? Never make a promise that you can not fulfil. Once you make a promise, never go back on it.

Live not for this life, God awaits for you in his kingdom.

The man who promises everything is sure to fulfil nothing.

My Prayers of the day!

May I have the serenity to accept the things I can not change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.

Dealing with Stress

This is the first time i am penning down my views in writing. I believe these thoughts which keep on pondering in my mind should reach people and if it is helpful to any one person than my purpose of writing is solved. In today's hard life we all suffer from stress . Everybody has different ways of dealing with stress. If we talk about what is stress that will again be relative. But the one which I found appropriate is a situation where we are supposed to handle things which we are normally not used to. Things further can be categorized into visible or invisible, physical or mental; controllable or uncontrollable. Like certain things in our life happen as they are predestined like a parting from loved one and when we have to manage life without that loved one we come under stress. We normally then blame circumstances, other peoples behavior and so on and on. But I want to ask a question why we always knowingly or unknowingly throw ball in others court why do not we do self analysis first . Yes, these uncontrollable things when happen in we feel helpless. For these things we keep on thinking why this happened to me? I am feeling so helpless. Wanna share one life experience a very sweet friend of mine lost her father all of a sudden . Whenever i used to meet her i used to feel so helpless to answer her queries. Her stress level was too high that she left her PHD in between , she used to sit whole day at home doing nothing. On other hand her younger sister joined job to make herself busy and to not to think for those questions which we do not have answer. My friend after seeing her sister realized that she is just loosing precious time of life and just emitting negative energy to surroundings. She got inspired from her sister joined her PHD back after a year and today she is a successful professor. From all this i concluded its the way how we look at things is what matters. Do we want to spend our life in worrying about things which are not under our control or we want to change our perspective of viewing things and lead our life in peace. Stress sometimes is just created by habit. There are people who have a habit of performing in Stress. They believe there efficiency is best when they are under strong urgency zone. But as a human being we have been given responsibility of universe. We need to ask our self that by always being there in crisis zone are we giving energy or we are just spreading negative energy in universe. Both positive and negative energy send out in world roll back like snowballs, picking up size and speed as they return. Let us all start looking at our self and come out of stress so that we can heal the souls arround us.
Few things which can help us doing this :
1. Aceept the things which are beyond our control do not resist ant try to move with flow of life.
2. Manage your time effectively.
3. Our inner soul is our best guide listen to you inner voice before taking any decision.
4. Meditation, Yoga, Prayers are certain medias which help in decreasing the anxiety level.
