Normally we do not look inwards, it's only when an #emotion rises and overpowers us in it's expression then we are forced to reflect. You say, OMG!! how did I scream? Is it really me?. Then our #ego constructs a story to make mind believe that it's not really me but the circumstances and the people around who caused the devil to snare out. Ego is master in deceptive game of delusion and we fall prey as we always do. This time know that all that volcanic waste that you release is all your internal matter and not an iota of it is from the outside world. It is your material and it is your responsibility to get rid of it. Either spew it on you or people around you and suck the life out of them or you have a choice. You can choose to release it all in meditation with the grace of a master. Learn sudarshan kriya, practice. Learn sahaj samadhi #meditation, practice. Live a life where you support life within you and around you.
अक्सर देखा गया है कि जो हमारे पास है हम वही देते हैं। जैसे हमारे पास #सुख है तो वही बाँट सकते हैं, दुःख है तो वही बाँट सकते हैं। लेकिन जब हम देते हैं तो बिना मतलब का परेशान होते हैं की, अरे!! मैं कैसे ग़ुस्सा हो गया, मैं कैसे चिल्लाया? मेरे अंदर इतना ग़ुस्सा कहाँ से आया? सब नाटक है। खुद ग़ुस्से की बोरियाँ भर के ढो रहे हो और पता भी नहीं हैं।खुद को दूध का धुला मान कर ऐसे अनजान बनते हैं जैसे कुछ हवा ही नहीं। नकारने से असली चेहरा छुपता नहीं, उसका नुक़सान खुद को और अपने परिवार जनो को ही होता है। उस नुक़सान से बचने के लिए और खुद के जीवन को आनंद से भरने के लिए न्योता देता हूँ। #सुदर्शन क्रिया और सहज समाधि #ध्यान सीखो और ख़ुशहाली से हल्के चलते रहो ...
It is said that intention is the cause of the universe. We get so many thoughts in a day but only few of them manifest or fructify. The world of our action is very limited compared to the subtle world where the rest of the work happens. And all activity in the subtle is driven by the sankalpa from the mind. The more stable and equanimous the mind, the source, the more powerful will be the support system that rises up to manifest the sankalpa.

सुख हमारी प्रकृति है, वो पाने की वस्तु नहीं है और न ही कोई गंतव्य है, वो है, बस।दुःख हमें अपनी संकीर्णता मैं घसीटा रहता और अपनी प्रकृति से दूर करते रहता है। दुःख के होने का कारण होता है और उन कारण और उनके असर को काम करने के लिए सुदर्शन क्रिया और सहज समाधि ध्यान का अभ्यास करना होता है।
Happiness is our true nature. It is not a goal to be achieved, it is the state of our being. Unhappiness is what keeps us away from happiness. We need to work on eliminating or reducing the cause of unhappiness in our lives by doing sudarshan kriya, sahaj samadhi meditation. Then we become lighter and joyful.

exploring the effects of sound on your body, head and heart via a short poem inspired by Gurudev's satsang last thursday
nature is complete with sound
there is hardly a dull moment
sometimes a thunderstorm
sometimes nightingale’s song
sometimes the honking vehicles
sometimes planes cruising in sky
sounds are produced far away
but reach you this or that way
then
sometimes you can hear your breath
sometimes your own heart beats
or the words in your mind
ringing loud and clear
making a quiet moment a distant reality
words from yesterday, today and tomorrow
sometimes from others and
sometimes from your own imagination
cooking stories, building speculations
the sounds from far away as much as from nearby
touch your head, heart, body
to dissipate in a while, subside
some sounds are caught by the intellect
held tight in memory
poked and played by your identity
building, repeating, strengthening,
impressions for lifetimes
that is why you meditate
witness the tastes of intellect
juicy stories of neglect, anger, guilt, frustrations
rise and disappear
into the self
never to ring the bell of worry and despair again
again and again, everyday
there are too many stories to wipe
from sound engineering during the day
to silence re-engineering twice a day 20 mins
meditation is the only way
to reduce the noise, both fresh and stale
The above poem is inspired from Thursday Evening Satsang talk given by Gurudev Sri Sri RaviShankar ji on 3rd December 2020.
