Buddha Poornima 2022

Further to link  https://kantipadam.blogspot.com/2022/04/buddha-poornima-2022.html?showComment=1652721203499 - I appreciate one and all who participated in the same...

I seek blessings from the Gurus for all those who completed 108 malas as decided....Keep up the good work...

and those who did more than 108 malas - kudos to you all....taking up a job and completing it is a wonderful quality....

but taking up responsibility beyond the suggested job is an excellent quality....Universe appreciates that in all who have it....go that extra mile in every area of your operation....success and peace will follow you....it is the best panacea for all your ills....develop this one quality and it will protect you from other ills...don't lose that quality....keep working on it and applying it in all fields of your life...

I completed "Japa yagna" yesterday - the whole day long - and the same sent to all those who have given feedback by yesterday of the number of malas completed. 

Honesty in work!

 

Honesty in work!

Most of the people do their job well when paid well....or at least try to or pretend to....

But the few, very few are those gem of characters who give their 100% even in the job that is under-paid. They give their 100% and more if possible even if it is not paid. They not only give their self to the job, they do with 'love and gratitude' for the job on hand. They don't need to be told that they have to do it well - they do! They don't have to be assigned responsibilities, they take it upon themselves happily on their own....These are the 'karma yogis'. These are the people you will find to be happy, cheerful, grateful and support to others. These are the ones who hardly complain about work or others in work. These are the contended lot. These are the men of character! These are the ones who addressed work the right way!

Their needs are fulfilled by doing their jobs right!

They are the people who may not know what 'Dharm' is but know how to live it!

If you happen to know any one like this, appreciate them both verbally and through some material gift. Let them know what a wonderful person they are! Tell such people their worth while they are still alive!

Don't wait to say those words in their 'shraddanjali'.....

# giving your 100%, abundance, work ethics, job well done, dharm in work,

Hate or love?

 

Hate or love?

Do we love to hate

or hate to love?

Which one is good for us?

What are we doing?

What is that forcing us to take such a choice?

How is it making us feel?

Where is it leading us to?

Think about it!!!

On cloudy days

So, see these days as cloudy days. Enjoy the ‘forced leisure’ while it lasts. Put it to good use. Prepare yourself for ‘busy time’ ahead. Strengthen your body and mind. Use every opportunity and time to do as much sadhan as you can. Gather as much energies you can. You’ll go that far as your energies that you’ve accumulated now!

So, as cloudy as our days seem now – believe that SUN shines always! In fact, it shines more brightly after a cloudy day or a rainy day!

So, will our life gather momentum in activity and shift into fast paced life?

Here, fear not, feel not! Dust that depression, disappointments, fears, tension, stress and stain for change is just around the corner!

As they say, the last lap is the most difficult one! So, don’t lose heart just before shift in ‘The Time’!

Get back to regular sadhan.

Get back in shape – body, mind and soul.

Reclaim your strength – body, mind and soul – for the coming time is going to demand that from you.

So, to sum it up, cloudy days are to recoup our strength.

They are to give rest to our soul.

They are so we get connected to our soul.

However, dark cloudy days be, sunny days are bound to come – one way or the other – for sure – Always!

Financial – it is possible that few of you (like me!) don’t have a job or income coming by now. Those who are getting are also probably not happy with their pay-checks. Whatever be the position, all I can say is ‘hold tight and keep healing – light is at the end of the tunnel and we certainly are almost there’!

So, become physically strong to be able to take the work load that’s going to come your way. Take all the rest your body needs now. You’ll not get it later nor can you complain about it then. So, you see Universe doesn’t punish us with these times – though most of us do deserve such punishment for our nature and attitudes! These times is a ‘necessary evil’. It is the much resting required for our body, intellect and soul. We also need to gather our emotions scattered periodically! Look back at your life. Each one had these periods. Some had every 5years and others every 8. That number may vary from person to person. But all had and that is important fact that we can’t overlook.

Even nature has ‘winter’ when nature goes to sleep. That period of hibernation makes it bounce back with ‘colourful spring’ soon after. Even trees shed their leaves before blooming!!!

Respect these periods of pauses in life. Work on your fear, doubt, tension and need to hurry to next station of life!

It is possible that few of you are going through a lull period of life. It can be any aspect of life – physically due to ailment may be you or your near one – don’t be discouraged. See this as a ‘forced vacation’ given by the Universe to you. I know boredom may bother you. So may be the financial tension. Trust Reiki. Do reiki and relax! Things will work out very soon – very well too!

Emotional – may be one or few of the relationships may be bothering you a lot. Be with it. Do the needed healing for the same. Also become aware of areas you need to heal within. Most of the relationships have these ups and downs period. If it is at the start, well and good. Make the necessary corrections and see the relationship go from bad to good to better to best…right now it may look not worth fighting back. But everyone who had such problem had only come back with ‘thank God, I kept healing and today I am so glad it worked out so good’. Few of you have already experienced that too! To others I say this will turn us into better human being for sure!

 On cloudy days

Today, I’ll address just the ‘mood of the day’ part. Even on the days I’ve class or when I was working – be it in office or in marketing or sales, I would still have this mood rule my day. I would take in more work in office and finish it. I would work fast – so..! on road, I would not feel the stress and strain of driving long distances and traffic. I would take in rejections during marketing with a smile. So, I can say for sure – these days were meant for smiles – wherever I had been in life!

So, is this about my likes and dislikes?

Am I talking about how I enjoy certain kind of weather?

What do these days tell us?

·      Slow down! Yes, we lead a disciplined and structure life 9-5 24/7. It is good. But it is ok to be relaxed and enjoy the view once in a while.

·       Life is just not about proving ourselves. It is not about acquiring or possessing something or someone. It is not even about chasing something or someone. It is about ‘being’. Yes, it is about stopping and slowing down a bit to relish what we are holding with us – right here, right now! Yes, we are ‘being in the moment’ and it happens so effortlessly when we just ‘do these little nothings without any agenda or with an eye on returns or targets.

·      
These days tell us one more important fact of life. They tell us ‘It is in the Nature of things to slow down or have a lull period in life”. Yes, there are going to be those periods of time when nothing seems to move. Just as rest is also equally important part of ‘exercise’, waiting or pause in life movement is also part of the whole movement. That time is for us to recoup our energies – gather ourselves which is scattered during our rush through our driving life. As we rest or slow down, we become eligible and fit enough to take on next stage of life. Then we become ready for some more ‘ups’ of life. There can be no up without a down. So after intense activity life forces us to time of less or inactivity one way or the other.
