Off I flew from this blog to <a href="http://www.lotusfeetofguru.blogspot.in/">another</a>. It's been a beautiful companion, always there by my side. It patiently agreed to carry on any accessory or dress that I offered. And must I say it looks beautiful, with or without my words. It served its part in my story very well but now it is time to move on.</div>

Everything posted here through me has its origin somewhere else. There is no idea ever in my life I can claim as my own. Behind every thought is some inspiration, either from the inner world or the outer one or both. Since I know neither of them, not even whether they are two different worlds or not, there is nothing that belongs to me. I am just grateful that these words chose to come to me.</div>

</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The most beneficial moments for spiritual growth are the most challenging ones in which we discover our greatest shortcomings and face the wall. Because then, we break the wall and emerge as a super version of what was before. We may choose to stay contented in that state. Or we may discover the next greatest shortcoming and face the wall. The thicker the wall, the lesser the number of walls. If we are in a very difficult phase in life, surely it is the best time to become a super-self. No wonder people who live intensely advance immensely. The more the world attacks us, the better swordsman we become. If everything around is quiet and controlled, it is time to move on to some place which is a little shaky. Only then can we quickly advance to the ultimate truth.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

We were just a super tiny creature crying for some reason. Gradually, we accumulate things from this place into our body and mind. We tend to assume our right over those things and if any of them goes bad, we cry again. Even if we are not able to accumulate more, we cry. If we remember the state we were in when we arrived and see what we are today, we will feel nothing but deep gratitude to everyone and everything for taking care of us. No matter who we are, we are alive today only because the existence is so caring.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Sometimes, when we lend a helping hand to someone, our ego tricks us into believing that we are the ones helping the one in need. Isn't it so easy to see that we are just taking a piece of the existence from one place to another. There is nothing here on which we can claim ownership. Everything is loaned from the planet. However much we may claim anyone or anything to be ours, it will become free from us sooner or later.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">That brings us to the question - is there anything that we can claim right over? Are we supposed to start as a beggar and end as a beggar? Is there anything at all that belongs to us? Before that, who are we? What are we? Who am I?</div></div>Apoorva Chandrahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10153619057275936604noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24960317.post-43673652313471284832012-01-10T20:17:00.000-08:002012-01-10T20:18:01.978-08:00Observe / React<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div style="text-align: justify;">Simply doing what is needed and just observing what is happening and accepting it as a movie script, even though it may be something negative happening to us, ceases creation of karma. Life incidents, positive or negative, are best seen as a movie script and enjoyed that way. If we react to them, we are not letting that karma leave. "This too shall pass" is a wonderful way to look at everything.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">It is not immoral or wrong to act otherwise, it is just beneficial to see life this way. All the energy and emotions that we have should be channeled to the pursuit of the ultimate truth and always doing what is needed, may be helping someone in need, working to improve a situation, or whatever that, according to our understanding, is needed to be done.</div></div>Apoorva Chandrahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10153619057275936604noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24960317.post-89383769093479910882012-01-10T07:08:00.000-08:002012-01-10T07:08:55.376-08:00Self-ish<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div style="text-align: justify;">There is no such thing as unselfishness. Even mother Teresa served the poor because she felt bad for them and that feeling couldn't let her not help them. Selfishness is the motivation for all actions. It is a righteous feeling.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The inability to see the interdependence of the world leads us to serve only oneself even at the cost of hurting other life forms. More than anything else, that is plain ignorance. Ignorance is the ultimate sin. The root cause of all consequences is ignorance.</div></div>Apoorva Chandrahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10153619057275936604noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24960317.post-60466510354358822602012-01-10T06:59:00.002-08:002012-01-10T06:59:43.965-08:00Intensity<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The purpose of ego and attachment is self-preservation. The concept of “I” exists to preserve this particular body and mind. But, this particular body and mind is as precious as another body and mind. All our activities should be in line with this idea. <o:p></o:p></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Once self-preservation is achieved, we seek something else. That search may find expressions in greed, ambition, curiosity, creating an impact in the lives of people, etc. It seems we are seeking something infinite unconsciously because this search is never going to end this way. Even the most accomplished and affluent individuals such as Alexander, Bill Gates, Henry Ford, Einstein, Edison, Steve Jobs, etc. could not attain perfect bliss through towering heights of accomplishments. They all stayed miserable as far as perfect happiness is concerned. <o:p></o:p></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Spirituality is about seeking that infinite consciously and finding out the ultimate truth. It is not about attaining any knowledge or reading any scripture or following any religion. It is just about consciously seeking the one answer to everything that has been, is, or will be.<o:p></o:p></div>

<br />
Case 2. I am happy, absolutely at peace with all the positive and negative events taking place. Nothing can stir me. I enjoy the beautiful world as it is. I wonder who the hell created all this, including me. Where is she/he hiding after creating this marvel? At this moment, all I can think of is that I must find the creator.<br />
<br />

But still the truth might exist. Only when it comes within the reach of my experience does the truth become a truth for me.</div>Apoorva Chandrahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10153619057275936604noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24960317.post-84706211665811952972011-12-29T01:37:00.000-08:002011-12-30T11:31:27.961-08:00Pursuit of Happiness<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div style="text-align: justify;">We remember our glorious past and dream of a world-at-our-feet future to be happy. We do things that we like and talk to people we love. We try to find more and more ways to enjoy but end up being sad many times.<br />
<br />
Life is composed of moments. In order to make the whole life happy, finding ways to be happy for a moment is a good starting point. Now, what can we do to make a moment full of joy? We can eat an ice-cream, see our loved ones, look at a beautiful landscape, and do numerous other things. But still there can be times when none of these happiness seeds is available. What do we do then? If, by any chance, we can be happy just by looking at whatever is present in front of us, that's a good practical solution.<br />
<br />
Wherever we are, in office, at home, or on the streets, if we think of nothing but just observe what's happening around us closely, without judging anyone or anything, we will be at peace. If we begin to appreciate the little beauty present in every little object we encounter and feel a sense of gratitude to the existence for allowing us to experience that thing of beauty, we will be happy.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The truth is that even if we do nothing or think of nothing, we will be happy. If our mind is cleared of all possible thoughts, we will feel nothing but an ever growing peace, the true nature of spirit. But our logical mind is always at work to make us feel sad. At this moment, sitting in front of my computer in my room, if I choose to do nothing and think of nothing, I will be perfectly at peace. But my mind won't let me. It will remind me of the many things I need to do to be happy today and tomorrow. It will give me flashback of many things that went wrong in the past. It will try its best to keep me busy and take me away from this peace of nothingness.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">We all have had our share of the victory moments when we felt we got that most important thing we had longed for. And we were so happy and at peace at that instant. If we reflect, we will find that our mind had become empty of all thoughts and desires for those few moments. Free of thoughts, we felt absolute peace and happiness. But then mind comes back to work, takes away our happiness, and reminds us of the next list of action items to be happy.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">To the logical mind, it may seem that thinking of nothing will amount to utmost stupidity and dullness. But, on the contrary, active or conscious emptiness of mind means leaving logic for intuition, which is the source of all monumental acts and scientific discoveries in the world.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Does this mean we should stop doing everything and just think of nothing, do nothing? Not necessarily. We have been living in a way that we always pursue happiness through actions. Instead of that, if we live in a way that we experience happiness and peace first and then perform actions, we will be ever blissful and more successful. We can keep growing the peace inside ourselves by thinking of nothing but just feeling and observing things around us whenever we can. At all other times, filled with calmness, we can perform all actions and duties with greater effectiveness. Let's find peace first and then pursue the actions instead of the other way round.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Even better than observing things outside is to observe and feel our own body, our breath. That's something we will have with us, wherever we go. If, while sitting or walking, we simply observe air flowing in and out of our nostrils and try to feel it more and more as an observer looking at the body breathe instead of consciously making an effort to breathe, we will be at absolute peace. But of what good are words without experience?</div></div>Apoorva Chandrahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10153619057275936604noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24960317.post-12862730910028248542011-12-28T08:15:00.001-08:002012-03-16T13:29:29.831-07:00Good & Evil<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div style="text-align: justify;">Any intention or action that inhibits life is evil or negative.
