"The longer we dwell on our misfortunes, the greater is their power to harm us"
- Unknown

How true... The more the thought given, the more it bombards. At that moment, diverting our mind to some activity/ making ourselves busy helps. It's tough, but that's how it works. Escapism can be termed by many. But, the one who faces the worst knows the best. And after all, every human's ultimate desire is to have a happy life. We engage ourselves in every outward activity(entertainment, travel, chats, work, ...). We search for joy in our every interest. But, does this truly help? We can feel that void still left, and that too, when the miseries keep coming. We can definitely feel that imbalance within. We'll again start looking for happiness outside and that process repeats. If, we really want true happiness, we must look into ourselves. That's where meditation/yoga comes into picture. I won't say that everything becomes rosy in a day, but I can guarantee that there will be some change within us which will help us move forward in life with a positive note. It will give us that inner strength which we require. This happens when we go to temples / mosques / church. It helps us to come out of our fears. And yes, prayers do help. But this is again another way other than meditation. Ultimately, however, our life will guide us towards the same and that is, we know, it's meditation. If we wish to sit for long hours, yoga helps... All the best!!! Will be wishing everyone to lead a happy and a prosperous life. Peace to All!!!

I used to be a strong believer of all these early. Later from few years stopped even thinking about such stuff. Only started believing in creating or processing my thoughts. Now suddenly, out of curiosity, when I stepped into the website above, I was astonished. Mostly, on the negative traits. Yes and I even got a doubt, how instability leads to spirituality? If there is stability, there is a possibility of all the positive traits. Might be, it's a hint for me to work on this... Good for me.. :) Thank you Sirisha for posting this in a community...

"Most difficult moments in life : 
Sometime, life even takes such a turn.. And how true it is. Experiencing it at that moment is worse but later when you look back it makes you strong... And, that's a great feeling. 

She is my mom's grandmom(nanamma). I knew about the state she was in recently. Never knew there was a pic like this. I was in at most shock as no one ever told me about her last stage. However, started knowing about her. 3 years before her demise, she started meditation. And 1 year after my birth, she left her body. My mom misses her even now... She loves her the most than anyone. She even now tells me about the chain her grandmom gave her (as she gave it to me). Lucky Me. For me, it's her memory. It will be safe and will be passed on... :)
 Mom even used to say that her grandmom loved me a lot. And she even wished to see my marriage. Hope, it was not another Balika Vadhu.. ;)  Anyways from the pic, I got some clarity with my life too... There should be someone in the past for you being what you are. I understood. Wherever you are, thanks a lot for everything. This is one pic that attracted me the most than any of yours... :)) I am just enjoying your state. Wish I just be regular in doing whatever I learnt. Thank You and Love You...

I don't know how this suddenly struck my mind yesterday morning. And yes, this basic math that I am talking about applies to life and its relationships as well... With positive attitude anything can be achieved. But when you come across some negativity, it will slow down your progress. This happens due to fear, anger, frustration and many other such attributes.. Life takes you for a ride with many more lessons to learn. But once you overcome all your negatives, you are a Success.

Take the same with relationships too... You being positive and when with people with negative thoughts, it creates lot of disagreements, misunderstandings, anger, and what not..... Finally, whatever you were before never matters. You tend to get negative and you start questioning your identity. Such is the influence.. So, be cautious. Most of our lives get stuck here losing peace of mind. And, this is where we must know how to come out. Every problem has a solution. Listen to your heart and take a step ahead. Nothing to worry even if you get negative at some point as that finally becomes a Plus... 

      Past 10 days, before her demise, I was reading Bhagavad Gita. Never knew the reason behind. I wished to read it many times, but never gave myself into it. Me, a person who always wished my end before anyone's and who is very attached to all, started realizing many things.
1. Love must be there, not possessiveness.
3. Let us free the Soul. Our binding will block it's progress. Let it be at Peace.     


Whenever I visit her, she always used to hold my hand with love. This time, it was me who was craving to hold her and feel her. I was in control most of the time but still tears fell... It's okay... Thanks to the Lord for helping me. I knew He was trying to teach me something. When the time came, to hold her, some fear popped up. I told the same to Mom. She said, "Why fear?" She held her and seeing her I too held her hand. I felt her. That moment I was very happy. Then, I bowed to Her and felt better. Though it was the body; when I saw her face, I felt she was very peaceful. At the same time, felt that she was longing to see everyone. I wish her Soul to be at Peace... When coming to happiness before her death; yes, she was happy. Mom was there with her and that's the reason. However, her death was unexpected but this was the best solution for her next best life. May Your Soul Rest In Peace, Ammamma. Love You...
