On waiting!!!!

 



On waiting!!!!




Wait of the life time is over in a minute. But for that minute to come, we need to wait for years on end!!

What a paradox??!!

Reflections - Life, a puzzle?

Reflections - Life, a puzzle?




Now, with this understanding when I look back at life, then the way things worked out gets a new perspective altogether. Now, everything seems to be ‘right’. It may have been painful, uncomfortable, displeasing, and not to my liking and yet it was the ‘right thing’ that happened. Because now I see ‘the big picture’ emerging.


If this be the case of the past, is it not the same with the present too? Whatever I am undergoing – though painful and not to my expectation, would it not be right for the future to unfold itself? So, life and its situations are just about unfolding itself, layer by layer, bit by bit in time so that the ‘picture’ forms itself on its own – in time!

So, you see, it was never about me!!! It was always about the big picture. Now, from this perspective when I view things of the past and of the present, ‘whatever happens, it’s right’ is understood well!

So, does that goes to say that "Life is a puzzle, unravel it?" right???

Get back with your feedback!!!

the question you have is answered in one of these links.......go find them....

Questions addressed and points made:

  • Life can be lived forwards and understood backwards only....
  • Life may not make sense while it is happening but at a later day, most of the things find an explanation to validate their happening......
  • Life is beautiful even when not understood.
  • Live life, let understanding to God or the Creator.
  • To understand we need to have basic qualifications of having overgrown few of our traits like hatred, ego, doubt, laziness, selfishness, manipulative nature and so on. We also need to develop few of the essential qualities like love (that is pure and selfless), selflessness, purity, honesty, commitment, discipline, faith, patience and so on.....
  • Let's first work on gaining the qualities required and losing qualities harmful for us and then understanding will happen on its own.....
  • Why is this thing happening/not happening in my life?

Reflections - Life, a puzzle?

 


Reflections - Life, a puzzle?




The other day, I happened to be at a wedding. So many of my schoolmates attended. Everyone was happy to see each other. There was cheer in the air. And I, was looking at all of this from a distance! (not physically but mentally!)

There were the same friends who as kids I thought would be ‘together for life’. We still meet occasionally – but that’s not it – right? So, in spite of ‘assuming’ and ‘wanting’ things to go our way, it doesn’t – right? In this example, we are not able to continue ‘being with our friends for life!


People go out and a ‘new set’ of people come in. we shift places. We change jobs. Our environment changes. Our circle of people changes. Even the relatives we once considered close grow apart. And the ones we didn’t think much of come closer to us.

When I saw all this, it felt as if I was watching ‘a giant puzzle’ in motion. Pieces getting shifted continuously till the final picture comes together! Wow! So beautiful, subtle, simple, and yet profound!

On Shivarathri



On Shivarathri



Today being Shivarathri let’s do sadhan of every kind – depending upon the time and interest available….

Follow the list as much as you can to make good use of today’s speciality:



a.Do every kind of meditation you have learnt in various degrees of Reiki class.

b.Do homam

c.Do re-birth meditation

d.Do Vastu healing

e.Do any or all of your intention healing

f.Do relationship healings required for your life situation

g.Do navagraha healing



h.Do soul healing for just one person in your life

i.Do financial healing

j.Do japam – just MM or OM NAMAHA SHIVAYA AT LEAST ONE MALA

k.Do earth healing

 


Anyone who is able to do even 5 of the above, you are done for the day….relax….you have done good….



Those of you who wish to be awake the whole or partial night, do the same at that time…



Shiva is not an idol. Shiva is not a figure who lives somewhere. Shiva is a state of existence that one can experience only when one is calm, silent, pure and desireless from within! Let's search for 'that Shiva' within by healing ourselves....let's collect our broken pieces so that we can experience what it is to be whole....



May your healing bring you closer to your REAL SELF!

On fasting!

 


On fasting!


If I don’t eat but all I can think of is ‘food’, does that count as fasting?

What does fasting actually mean?

“To be awake the whole night?!” – what does being awake the whole night actually mean?

Watching some films – may be mythological yet if watching a movie is to be ‘awake’ on a festival day, then we need to do some real thinking here….
