A Journey towards a new beginning.

Whenever we come across anything pertaining to the health of the mind, a lot of questions emerge. We hear many stories, attend a lot of training sessions, meditate, eat right, do a lot for a healthy life and as a result we feel energised, strong and happy, but, by the end of the day if we ask ourselves a question “am I happy ?”…the answer would be a YES or will it be a NO?

Now, let us again ask ourselves , “are we really happy?”. All human beings try to answer this question in different ways possible. Some go on a road trip, some focus on their work, some find it amongst their group of friends, some party hard, some shop it out and so on. But, the very next day, again, the same old act of grumpiness follows. We can do anything, but we should constantly check ourselves if the situations that we are creating for ourselves, the things that we do to remain happy is giving us real happiness or are we just distracting ourselves.

But a few of us try to find real, permanent, long lasting solution for that matter. And that’s the reason why we have so many yogis and gurus in the world. But as a common man with so much responsibility on the head, with a family to take care of and with so many dreams and visions, not all of us can leave the house and live as a monk. This cannot be the answer and it should not be the solution. Then what is the answer for it? Let us take a pause and look at ourselves for a moment… ‘just us’…and try answering the doubts that arise on looking inside our mind, deep down into the soul. The queries that we mostly have are…

Who am I?

What am I here for ?

What’s the purpose of my existence?

Why is there so much of chaos in the society?

Can’t everything be resolved? Won’t this world come back to normal? and so on…

When the entire world quests for happiness and peace outside, the one who stops and dives within, finds the answer and ultimately finds the truth. Happiness, peace, power, bliss, joy are some of the words which are constantly on the rounds these days. Every single individual in this world needs happiness, peace and bliss no matter what.

For that we need to understand that we are happiness, peace and bliss ourselves. How can we do it? It is a vast topic which cannot be understood from a single sheet of paper. We will look into it in the upcoming days, slowly and gradually creating a beauty within and thus a beautiful world outside.

Om Shanti
