Happiness

Image
             Happiness is the sacred experience of living every moment with love and gratitude.     There is always something to be thankful for and some reason to love.  So be sure to appreciate what you’ve got.  Be thankful for the little things in lifetime that means a lot. Be a student of life every day.   Experience it, learn from it, and absorb all the knowledge you can.  Prepare yourself for greatness by keeping your mind conditioned with fresh knowledge and new challenges.  Remember, if you stay ready, you don’t have to get ready when great opportunities arise.     Experience is the best teacher.   Don’t try too hard to memorize the things others are teaching.  Learn the best practices and then do your thing.  Life itself will teach you over the course of time, and often at the right time and place, so that you will remembe...

Magical divinity.

Image
By K.N..Subramanyam. The spiritual path is one of cycles of growth and destruction, of rebuilding followed again by disruption, until the magical work of the soul, the higher self, effects a transformation of the personality. Through a balanced practice of meditation, the study of spiritual texts, and service to humanity, a higher and more stable spiritual vibration can supersede these cycles of ebb and flow.   This magical power of the soul can be grasped and steadily manifested in our lives as an increasing power to serve through love-wisdom and skill in action. That will draw upon the timeless spiritual principles and techniques by which the soul works its magic   The differences between the western and eastern     mysteries are not huge.              They both involve practices to bring you into contact with the deepest (or highest) aspects of consciousness for the purp...

Life is Simple.

Image
when we were young we saw the world through simple, hopeful eyes.  We knew what we wanted and we had no biases or concealed agendas.  We liked people who smiled.  We avoided people who frowned.  We ate when we were hungry, drank when we were thirsty, and slept when we were tired. By. K.N.Subramanyam.  As we grew older our minds became gradually disillusioned by negative external influences.  At some point we began to hesitate and question our instincts.  When a new obstacle or growing pain arose, we stumbled and fell down.  This happened several times.  Eventually we decided we didn’t want to fall again, but rather than solving the problem that caused us to fall, we avoided it all together. As a result, we ate comfort food and drank alcohol to numb our wounds and fill our voids.  We worked late nights on purpose to avoid unresolved conflicts at home.  We started holding grudges, playing mind games, and su...

Minding the Mind

Image
By. K.N.Subramanyam. We live each day with thousands of things demanding our minds precious attention. We think incessantly about a million things that many of us become slaves to our minds. In fact, we think so much that as soon as we have time to be still we don’t even know how to enjoy being quiet. The only way you will ever experience peace of mind is by learning to drop the analogical thinking mind. Meditation is a way to help you on the journey of achieving mental clarity and peace.    Meditation will be your tool for deep introspection of your inner being, and will prove to be very valuable in your day to day life. It will help you develop an intimate relationship with your true self. As you develop your inner being you will become valuable to those around you, because you will be more in touch to who you really are. You can only truly help others when you have become the master of your mind, free of false illusions. Many people feel ...
