Mind relaxation has become a mandatory need is our fast and furious world. There are many different forms of meditation... physical, mental, through use of sound, aroma....  all are known differently but ultimately their goal is mind relaxation and co-ordination

Here is one such physical technique of relaxation called Brain wave vibration. This again proves that man is made up of energy molecules that are constantly vibrating, colliding at a very high speed and acceleration. Thought is a vibration, words are a vibration, breath is a vibration, every movement made by the body and within the body creates vibration...... this physical body that we see as a human body is a cluster of Vibrating molecules which is amazing in itself

Do we have time for time........?

We all want a busy life with some relaxation, but the moment we are absolutely out of work we feel bored.  Hmmm... even during recreation we need activity in life. Human beings are sociable, friendly and dynamic. So we need activity to keep our spirits alive. Our daily activities are timed whether the time is controlled by a ticking clock or by the patterns of sun dial. We all live by time, with time and desperately want things to happen in time. Yes, honestly we all want things to happen in time and definitely hate to wait.  We work for results, well, basically it is the main pushing factor in life. Then when we have to wait for the result, that seems distressing and sometimes very painful.
A student waits desperately for the exam results and on the day of result, seconds seem to be longer than hours. After studies we wait for a good job, a good settlement and a good companion. The excitement of a pregnant woman makes months longer than ages. The post retirement life suddenly loads the individual with so much time that needs to be managed and spent before going to bed. In  daily life we encounter many situations..... may be small or big...... when we need to wait impatiently losing our cool, ultimately raging our anger, anxiousness, excitement and frustration. Ultimately all this leads to unhealthy distressed living.  In all these situations we are asked to give some time and space for the time to pass and wait for the moment that we want to arrive on its own. Only if man could control time, it would be his play mate. Then again, time is always in its own pace, it is only us who repeatedly change our pace on the play-ground of life. We run, walk but never want to stay nor give some time for the moment to pass or for the new moment to come. We hurry. We get so busy with our activities forgetting the fact, we have no time for time Or in other words we have no time to wait. Only if we could patiently give time for things to take shape on their own, time would be our best companion.

Bindi (Bindu) and its relation to the Energy Center in the body

Bindi, Tilakam, Tilak all the same names. Bindi is the traditional custom of wearing the so called "dot" on the forehead close to the area between the eyebrows (mid brow area). 

Bindi has long been considered as a mark of beauty and decoration. It is worn by most of the females of  India  and some other countries of South Asia. it is a Hindu custom. Usually a red bindi is worn, but these days there are a number of colourful bindis available. 

Traditionally, in India, even men used to wear the crimson red Tilakam that was mostly "Kumkum". The kumkum is obtained from a combination of dried turmeric and slaked lime. Kumkum can even be made from saffron.  Turmeric and Saffron are very well known for their antibacterial properties. The natural kumkum is, in the present day, partly replaced by artificial stickers and paints. it is also a custom in India to offer kumkum to guests and apply it to their mid brow area during auspicious occasions and when bidding farewell. It is considered as a way of showing respect and affection. However with the passing ages, tilakam or bindi wearing is now being followed  by some females only. Its a pity though to see the customs slowly decreasing in popularity.

The significance and Importance of wearing Bindi goes way beyond just beautification and good looks.

The position of the "Bindi" or "Bindu" , sanskrit word/s that in english means "Dot" is usually between the eyebrows or slightly above the area along the midline of the face. This area between the eyebrows corresponds to the Sixth Chakra (energy center) called "Ajna" Chakra of the Kundalini ( the central channel of energy of the human body). "Ajna" (Agna) means command. Any mild touch or pressure over this area helps in the stimulation of the energy center. The Bindi resting on the skin of the area applies the constant touch that provides some stimulation of the energy center. The pressure applied during the application of the Bindi (done daily) is also stimulating.This stimulus is very good for activating and balancing our body energy field. The similar is true for application of kumkum to the scalp in the mid-partition of the hair. This area stays close to the Sahasrara chakra. The position of Ajna Chakra is coincident with the position of the pineal gland. The position of the Sahasrar Chakra corresponds to that of the pituitary gland. Thus application of tilakam or bindi is not for mere charm or decoration but has a great implication. 

everything is energy

Human body can be compared to a magnet surrounded by an energy field with two poles. The body matter is made up of tissue with the basic unit of every tissue being an atom. An atom as we all know is made of the orbiting electrons with central protons and neutrons. Thus it carries energy and human body is made up of millions of such energy units and therefore as a whole it is an energy field with the atoms and molecules vibrating with their particular energy fields giving the body a form and shape visible to the human eye. Every thing that appears in nature irrespective of its state of existence is nothing but a compilation of atoms-- the basic energy units--- to produce a shape and image that we see and perceive.

our thoughts, words, actions are all examples of the dynamism of energy.
Everything around, within and without us is Energy.   

Every thought has a frequency

• http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2eDqDcZm9EA&feature=related

Thoughts are nothing but electric impulses traveling through the extensive nerve network the human body possesses. They are nothing but one of a kind of sinusoidal waves similar to every other wave in nature. They have a frequency, a wavelength..... they possess the field of energy. So they can carry a smooth wave or a disturbed wave with a disturbed frequency. Whatever the wave is..... it is a thought generated by us.......... these thoughts carrying energy waves can affect us and our surroundings too.  

Known Ignorance

There is an age old saying "Ignorance is bliss". Yes, many a times Ignorance is a bliss. It keeps the mind away from the fear of unknown, thereby not creating tension in life. True Ignorance is no different from innocence.

Unfortunately we live in a world where innocence is enacted, things are done with known motives and known knowledge of their consequences. Then, ignorance is acted upon just to escape. Life has become so pseudo, pseudo satisfaction, pseudo happiness, pseudo tears. Man has become so adapted to this pseudo act that he is now living in its shadow accepting the shadow as reality. A true act, a true concern or a true affection is considered pseudo and false whereas a portrayal of actions is considered sophistication, reality, intellect and smartness and is appreciated. Every one looks at each other as an opportunist, and believes opportunism is one of the smart ways of living. it is accepted that a helpful hand if opportunistic is more reliable than the real help that is done without any reason. No one is ready to accept a true helping hand with the fear of what he might lose after the favor is done. So insecure the world has become!. It is a pity that the world knows what is right and who is right yet fears to recognize the truth. Recognition is attributed to the one whose intentions are clearly known to be untrue. Why.... just for the fear of being hurt!..... Just to safe guard the pseudo life! why are we unable to accept a true thought or a true word, when we know its true. Are we fooling the world or ourselves......  An ignorance that has made two worlds. A real world and a world created by our own thoughts, discrimination much different from reality.... yet is perceived as the truth of the hour. Why are we all living with such known ignorance!!

Spectator

A spectator I stand

to witness everything

all that happening outside,

all that is within.

All around I gaze

I see many faces,

resembling the siblings alike,

all masked in the crowd of emotions.

Each, changing face with the play of time.

All, but my faces!!!

Yet unable to recognize self!

Time once again proved its might,

as I stand, a spectator

in search of self,

witnessing event after event.

Smiles turning into fears, fears into tears

and tears ultimately into acceptance of reality.

The masked emotions changing faster than the pace of seconds.

Yes, I stand as a witness

to my own life

learning to accept the way of life.

Learning that Acceptance is no defeat

but a victory over emotions.

A path trodden less,

opens the door to satisfaction and happiness.

The most misunderstood colour

Among all the colours existing in nature the most misunderstood , negated and unaccepted is the colour black. if colours too had emotions.... then probably they could speak for themselves :)

I make the dark of the night
I make the life of your eye
I make the beauty spot on your face
I make your hair glow in grace

Unwanted I am to many
Unlucky I am to many
Yes, I am not colourful
Yes, I am the black

may be not as bright as the colour white
but white is brightest only when next to me

I am not the yellow that has a radiant glow
yet when mixed with me  its glow is lost

The red is strong and mighty
it is the colour of the fire ball
yet the ball rises and sets
the night was there before it rouse
and still there after it sets

I am not the blue that is pleasant and cool
yet it freezes in my cold

I am not the green, the queen of prosperity
yet when with me, its lusture is shadowed

All the colours to one side,
I stand alone
I have no shades,
I have no hue
I  absorb all and I still stand as one
I am the universe
Yes, I am not colourful
Yes, I am the black

Holi

 Holi hai !  bhai holi hai !!
Once again Holi is back with its vibrant colours. Holi is the festival that signifies unification of all colours,
be it the colours of nature, the universe,
be it the colours of the human race or the human face
be it the colours of traditions and culture
be it the colours of older and modern beliefs
be it the colours of our society, community or family.
The bright as well as the subtle colours balance each other and harmonise to glorify the world. These colours make up the collage of life representing the various phases like happiness, sorrow and any moments we live. The collage exists within and around us. Without colours life is meaningless. Colours are  the beautiful basis for sustenance of life.


Colours... so many with shades so varied!
To chose just one is a difficult task indeed!
To colour your day,
especially today
choose not just one,
but all colours that glitter under the sun
Though some are dark and some sober
they still balance altogether

Silence

 Silence can be noisy... so noisy that only words can break it.... silence it. sometimes it is so frustrating sitting alone and the only one speaking to us is our mind! Such a paradox life is .... people yearn for silence and peace yet cannot live in peace without noise or someone to speak with. Too many conversations are also disturbing. Man is swinging like a pendulum between silence and speech. what actually comforts him...Does he know? 
Scientifically, a person with a working brain is living completely and a person without a thinking capacity is half dead, or half alive or just a vegetable to survive. Speech is a compilation of thoughts expressed in an understandable sound called language. So it is nothing but thoughts. Well, in that case, mind of a living is never devoid of thoughts. So then, is the mind and the continuously working brain at silence any time? Now then, where is the silence. OR what is silence...absence of words or thoughts?

Silence..... is it internal that is no thoughts or is it external when not spoken? Does it exist or not? Can we hold the mind from thoughts filled with desire, fear, terror ....... May be YES, but how? Man can be idle without work, but the mind cannot be idle. Even when asleep we dream, so when does the mind remain silent. Is it possible to remain silent.... undisturbed? Yes, it is possible, but again.... How? 
The ripples of the ocean have a wave pattern just similar to the huge waves... but they are less noisy.... why? They cause no destruction compared to the hurricane tides. Both the ripples and huge tides are created by the same water, the ocean as deep and mysterious as our mind. Like the mind its depths are yet to be revealed. 
The ripples have a controlled pattern of the their flow that is soft and yielding. The huge waves and tides are strong, aggressive, unyielding and devastating. Thoughts too, are patterns that origin from the depth of our mind and when propelled by emotions tend to be aggressive. The aggression is so strong that it disturbs the mind… noises the mind. Then forms the expression of aggression in form of words causing a disturbance both internally and externally to the thinker, speaker and the listener. Thoughts that arise out of emotions …desires, pleasures, anger, ego, fear as well as happiness… have no controlled pattern, and are only devastating and disturbing.
When thought patterns are controlled, they become subtle, sounding as pleasant as the ripples that exist to vanish without any effect. Ever heard a ripple? Mind cannot stop the thought process, emotions do exist… yet they can be tamed, directed in a controlled manner to attain uniformity and order. Such a uniformity and order creates a balance of thought and word, silencing the mind if ever it tends to get disturbed… as thoughts do arise!, this fact is inevitable.
Nature has both beauty and destruction living in harmony. It’s a marvelous example where we can learn how it balances its own self. A controlled mind is silent and peaceful even in a noisy crowd. The noise gets heard but remains unheard. A silent mind is at peace with itself and surroundings… a disturbed mind is at nuisance with itself and surroundings.
In-spite of its realms unrevealed, mind is an open book. Anything can be written, and anything can be erased. Well then, who can write or erase?… it is us who maintain the records in our mind using the software of our memory and the will to forget. Yes forgetfulness is a boon to mankind, that helps to live in harmony and peace. However if we intend not to forget our troubles then the same mind becomes a curse to our peaceful living.
The instability of mind is always blamed on situations. We feel that bad situations shake us otherwise we are very balanced. Is there a need to be balanced and peaceful in a favorable situation? The tree never complains about the strong wind that blows its leaves away. Even after the storm has resolved the tree stands erect, undisturbed, though it has lost something. Mastering the art of balance is not very difficult. We just need to understand a simple fact … disturbed is the mind not the situation, resolved is the mind not the situation as it is only the mind that reacts and not the situation.

Magical potion of life

Love is a pure emotion, that bonds people. Be it the love of parents, children, siblings, friends, fiance, husband or of some secret admirer OR Love for our passions or just love for life and the pure nature around us.... it is pure and a power that keeps us all alive and going. It is a magical potion.


Whenever I miss you
I'll search for you in the beautiful rays of the sun
whenever I want to see you
I'll look for you among the twinkling stars
whenever I want to reach you
I'll reach the tallest tree to feel the cool leaves
whenever I want to gaze at you
I'll watch the ever continuous waves of the ocean

whenever I want to....
..search for you
..see you
..reach you
..gaze at you
all at once
I'll just close my eyes and peep into my heart
because you are always there forever

Live in coincidence
believe and follow your heart
but be bold to embrace your destiny...
... this is life
autographed with a smile

A Thought

No Phrase so mighty is powerful until and unless it is implemented by mind.
Body may perform mechanically, but mind cannot deceive itself.
Experience teaches what scriptures try for years.
Blessed are those who are chosen by the eternal scriptures.
Paths may vary but destiny is one.

The cold desert

Far far away where the eye can reach,

an ocean of snow, nothing else but snow. 

Cold it is, so cold that no tree bears a fresh leaf. 

All of them have dried off and fallen away. 

The breeze colder than Ice, freezes the blood. 

To flap a wing, a bird does not dare,

 to venture into the cold desert the feathers cannot bear. 

There is no food around, only solid water everywhere. 

Water that cannot quench a thirst 

Alike the ego, that never quenches itself. 

it conquers the mind and freezes the thought. 

A pride so cold, bars the friend and family, 

deserting all relations that slowly part away. 

Ultimately... alone remains the ego, 

 no one ever tries to befriend it . 

All that remains is self and nothing else, 

cold and alone just like a cold desert.

Virtue of Time

Water is so clear, so pure, shows the shadows and images of anything that leans on it.
Does it have no image or shape of its own?..... does it have no virtue that it only reflects the images of other?
it neither can be contained nor curtailed. it just flows. what is its virtue then?..... its real virtue lies in casting the images of other things that co-exist, be it living or non living. its ever continuous flow tells us about the continuity of existence, life, that cannot be stopped. water flowing from the hill keeps on passing down, with the same spot being bathed by the water that follows..........well the water that follows bears the same virtue as the previous flow of water, yet its not the same.
when you try to touch it....... it just leaves a lingering wetness... a dampness that slowly dries off. when water evaporates, it is lost from our sight, though it exists as vapor......Time is also lost when we miss it, never to come back. Can we draw a simile here?
Water can be a representation of the ever flowing time. Each second, minute, hour of the clock is repeated yet the count is not the same. The sun rises daily to set again, but its not the same day. The time keeps ticking, just like the water flowing in the stream. We witness its flow, but cannot change it, nor beat it.
we need to swim in and with water to survive its waves or else we drown. Similarly we need to live in and with time, to survive. Time, timely shows us our shadowed images, we need to realize from these images about self. Some times the image is pleasant shadow showing our pleasant nature. Sometimes it is unpleasant, showing our unbalanced emotions. Time gives us a chance to understand self and resolve our confusions. Yet again, it is ever flowing, running as some may call it. We, people have classified the time frame into past, present and future. We are surrounded by the time and its measurements. When time passes... it leaves a lingering memory that fades off with passing time. Just like the lingering wetness that the water leaves, to dry off. We cannot live without water, We exist only within the horizons of time.

Time... Isn't it amazing!!!. An entity that has no physical picture....... has such a virtue. A virtue with so much of teaching and guidance. A virtue not separate from life.
