Year end of 2018

(contd)

Year end of 2018

Now coming to ‘year end’ – do we see it as ‘an end’ of this year or is it the ‘beginning’ of new year?

Because, if we see it as an end (or for that matter of anything in life) then it is painful and letting go becomes difficult and heavy! But if we see it as a new beginning, there is hope, expectations, joy and celebration. Think about it! 

So how do we see it as?

As an end of as a new beginning?

Neither! See it as a continuation – like a serpent eating its tail! A circle – a circle of life and events! Come to see of it - Every end brings with it a new beginning. Just go back and look at your every end that you suffered then! Your school, college or a job – you suffered because it ended but it also brought with it a new beginning that you cherished and loved later on. Isn’t it?

End of childhood – youth

End of youth – adult life

See it in various situations and with various people. It is same. The happy person is one who accepts this as he knows this to be the fact of life and moves with it and embraces the ‘new’ with joy and openness instead of being closed and fearful of the new. Be it situations or people every new change will bring with it new dynamics and new way of working, living and thereby growing and learning opportunities. Resist it and suffer the process. Fear of change is the cause of this resistance. But a flexible mind and heart doesn’t demand the ‘same’ old way of living and experiencing from the new. Where is the suffering then?

Think about it!


Comments?

and lastly, what are the milestones you wish to cross this coming year?

Year end of 2018

Year end of 2018 

‘Year end’ - Once again the time has come for this period of year!

And what an year it had been!

Time to say good bye this year and celebrate the coming of next year! 

Goodbye carries with it packet full of promises kept, resolutions held on to, dreams lived, relationships mended, joys and achievements celebrated, memories made. 

With the success tales are some dreams unfulfilled, persons and hope lost, resolutions broken and few regrets thrown in too!

And what better time than now for some introspection....so...

What does your life story hold vis-a-vis this year?

What are your achievements and joys?

What are the memories you made this year? 

What are your strengths that you have realized, worked on or gained this year?

What are your weaknesses you overcame this year? 

What is the lesson this year has taught you?

What did you give this year?

What are the lessons from this year that you wish to carry forward next year which will make your next year a better one than this one?

What are the milestones that you crossed this year?

On the whole how would you sum up this year?

We - The creator!

On prayers unanswered and desires kept pending......by an ardent devotee of GOD!

On prayers unanswered and desires kept pending......by an ardent devotee of GOD!

I am a ‘believer’ in GOD and would love to believe that HE is there ‘somewhere up there’ for me! 

I would like to believe HE listens to me. 

I long to believe that HE loves me and wants to fulfil my wishes – nay exists only to fulfil my wishes! 

In my head I AM THE ONLY existence for HIM and I believe that to be true! 

I wish my belief was validated with my experience!?! 

Well, If I need to be generous, yes few of my ‘small’ wishes did come true (and some of them a wee bit late than soon and I had to do lots of sadhan for that too!), but ONE wish that was most important and dearest to me has been kept on hold since ages..... 

And it is at such times I wonder if God has ceased to exist for me! And even if HE did exist may be HE has become deaf to me and my woes? 

I wonder..... 

Has HE gone on a holiday? Does HE? Can HE? Would HE? Does HE need it or want it? 

I just wished HE grant me my long pending ‘wish’ as I cursed HIM and my FATE, I heard this song playing in a shop that I walked into and then......... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9GuA5PZx3K4 ...I had my cup of coffee and left the shop wondering.........was it HIM that set that song for me? I guessed I would never get an answer for that! But I realized I had a smile on my lips and a gratitude in my heart as I walked out of that shop...........and thank God for that!

on knowing self!

happiness...

some thoughts to think about!

on time gone by!

Of all the regrets one which is difficult to forgive is having wasted enough time in not being happy.

And the power to have less of this regret rests in our hands. How wonderful is that! And yet.......

Yes, we are angry and frustrated about all such moments when the other is responsible for me not being happy. But what say of such moments when I uselessly wasted precious moments of my life 'not being happy'?

on choices!

https://kantipadam.blogspot.com/search?q=chose

wow, this link is a long one and that shows how many times and in how many ways this topic has been dealt with. 

Why? One, because I presume the person experiencing anger, frustration, sadness etc because of hurt, situations and people in life, expectations etc haven't read the old posts and even if they have they didn't give much notice to it as then it was not their problem or question.....

Not every story, explanation, quote, sayings or examples (and etc) touches everyone alike. Each of these have a taker and all the rest of the people are left where they are. When again this topic or this Truth is projected / explained with a different story or in a different way, it reaches some. Assuming that atleast one of these explanation would help you to see the area of problem and thereby make it easy to come out of the pit of sadness and anger easily i write again and again. (Am I wrong?)

And again I know this is easily said than practiced and takes years of practice and old habits make it much more difficult to take in new way of thinking. So just as the mind works hard to hold you to your old way of thinking, I take it upon myself to work doubly hard and from various angles to cut that way of thinking.

So end up with same topics again and again.......yet it is not the same. The topic is dealt from various angles, perceptions and degrees so people find their answers as per the intensity of their problem, the stage of their sadhan and thereby make it easy for them to apply it eventually effortlessly in all times of their life......

I know this is tough and that's why I say 'go ahead, i'll have your back even if you falter...'

may you find the strength to walk this necessary yet difficult path which is more than enriching as you work past its difficulties.....

No, sadhan also means you make conscious effort towards a change of perception.

Use every opportunity to exhibit your change of choice thereby changing your attitude and perception.

Don’t use every excuse in the book to be what you are already!

I’ve not only answered your question of “why we feel different energies at different times?” but also answered to

“how come I don’t feel so like them?”

“Why is it I don’t feel that change in me?”

“Why is it that I am unhappy at places where others are happy?”

“What should I do further to experience such wonderful feelings at all places?”

And such related questions.....

and please let me know if your query is answered completely and are you satisfied?

Instead of searching for flaws in present we overflow with gratitude and fall on knees with tears rolling down our cheeks for the abundance of love of Nature/ God/ Guru / person. This stems from silence of mind. And for that to achieve ‘stop cribbing’. One who goes within into that silence (be it for even few minutes) and lo! The magic happens! No one can make it happen!

Only you can by changing from cribbing person to a silent one!

Change of centre of operation opens up doors of happiness!

Sadhan doesn’t mean do reiki for one hour and then hate one or all for the rest of time and complain that Reiki doesn’t work.

“One housewife was reading book and she came across one saying that said “Faith can more mountains”. Immediately she put down the book, looked out of her window, staring at the mountain afar she said “I know this quote to be wrong and I’ll prove it just now”.

She closed her eyes and started praying “may my faith move the mountain” for an hour. After an hour, she opened her eyes, found the mountain just the same, smiled and said “I knew that! No faith can move a mountain. How right was I!” she went to reading the book.

(Godavari Arti in Rajhmundry - AP)

Assuming I have ONLY good experience, emotions and feelings always experience with moon, how come even they vary from time to time?

If it is the case, bless you for you belong to that group of people who have come to that ‘slot’ in existence where ‘being happy’ has become a way of effortless living with you. You are the one who’ll say -

“wow! I am in heaven – beautiful ambience”

“Wow! I am in hell! I have got company!”

You’ve practiced over God knows how long and come to live and Be happy inspite of circumstances.

And for those of us who aren’t in that space yet the mantra to be ‘happy’ is to choose ‘being happy’ every time we have to choose between ‘being happy’ and ‘being sad’.

Now coming to question as to why the same person’s feelings change from time to time?

Apart from ‘State of mind’ there are other variables working within like our attitudes, centre of operation and sadhan. 

As we are in sadhan our attitudes start shifting from fault-finding, complaining, conditions and expectations to that of acceptance and gratitude. When we are grateful we see the abundance in our life and its situations.
