Victory over Pain

Lord,
I am going through pain,
I know if I conquer this pain,
I am the winner,
I know there are no winners and losers
for now I want to win over the pain, the grief,

I will come out of the pain and grief,
win over it,
I know God is with me.

I am facing these pain
because I am being refined,
I am being tested,
I am becoming better and better individual,
God I am winning over all the pain and grief
And achieving victory over them.

Love

Shiva's three eyes; and its is sometimes known as the Mrita-Sanjivini mantra because it is a component of the "life-restoring" practice given to the primordial sage Shukra after he had completed an exhausting period of austerity. The Maha Mrityunjaya mantra is hailed by the sages as the heart of the Veda. Along with the Gayatri mantra it holds the highest place among the many mantras used for contemplation and meditation.

Just reducing your body fat would not make you healthy

If our body parts are not healthy and we reduce our fats, our body health would not improve much.

We need healthy inner and outer body to improve our health.

To get a healthy body, give exercise to each and every body part.

Body parts are outer body as well as inner body.

Our body parts include brain, stomach, intestine, liver, spleen, lungs, eyes, cornea, spinal cord, joints, cells, etc.

When we exercise we need to give exercise to all these body parts.

Just exercising to reduce our body fat would not make us much healthy.

How do we exercise all our body parts; inner as well as outer?

Yoga has exercise for all body parts, inner as well as outer body.

Yoga Asanas ( exercises ) are the exercises which give exercise to each and every body parts.

The biggest benefit of Yoga is that Yoga helps to improve each and every part of body.

In Yoga each and every body part is considered and given exercise.

If our inner body and outer body is healthy than body fats would not harm us.

If our inner and outer body parts are healthy than our body fats would balance themselves as per our body needs.

Normally Actors, obese people need to reduce body fat. Of course they need to improve their inner as well as outer body also.

Do not get too much obsessed with your body fat; instead concentrate on improving the health of your inner body parts like brain, lungs, stomach, liver, spleen, pancreas, intestine, cornea etc.

If our inner body parts are not healthy, than just reducing out fats would not be of much help to improve our health. We also need to eat healthy food, have positive thinking.

Question: When meditating I frequently have to cough.

Question:
When meditating I frequently have to cough. Only pops up then, not during my daily activities. Does this mean anything?

Answer:
Good question.

Before doing meditation, do some asanas, pranayam, breating exercises like nadi shodhan, bhastrika, kapalbhatti, savasana.

Exercise, asanas and pranayam are done to make our body healthy so that, while meditating, we should not be disturbed by our body.

These are the eight limbs of yog as described by Great Sage Respected Patanjali

Yam ( Yama )

Niyam ( Niyama )

Asan ( Asana )

Pranayam ( Pranayama )

Pratyahar ( Pratyahara )

Dharan ( Dharana )

Dhyan ( Dhyana )

Samadhi

We need to follow all above for good success in meditation

Body need to be perfected before becoming success in meditation.

Yoga at our convenience

We need to know that our health is not only important for our selves, but it is important to keep our near and dear and well wishers and everybody happy. If we are healthy we can spread happiness.

I like Baba Ramdev Maharaj easy Asanas and Pranayam, they are very healthy and keep our body fit. Baba Ramdev's class are everywhere all over India, and they give free Yoga Coaching. His teachings are also shown all over India early morning at 5.00 to 7.30 am on Aastha channel. If Yoga can be done in Open space it is best, but we can do it at our convenience at home also.

While doing Yoga we should be empty stomach. Best time to do Yoga is early morning between 4.00 am to 7.00 am. Second best time is 5.30 pm to 7.30 pm evening. It can be done at any time on empty stomach. It should be done 5 hours after heavy meal.

Breathe

Each and every cell of our body is requesting us to breathe properly as each and every cell of our body wants to survive in most healthy form.

Each and every cell in our body wants to enjoy life. These cells will not be able to enjoy life if we do not keep them healthy.

The process of keeping each and every cell of our body healthy starts from breathing.

Learn to breathe properly. Learn different ways of breathing.

Each and every cell of our body says ‘please breathe for me,’

We breathe automatically because breathe is the essence for each and every cell of our body.

Breathe is energy.

Breathe is life.

Breathe is prana.

Everything exists in cosmos

When we become aware about that existence we call it discovery or invention.

The Secret of global recession! The reality of recession! Functioning of the market economy!

A friend of mine forwarded this mail to me on what is an asset bubble or an inflated market. The reality of recession and functioning of the market economy.

Once there was a little island country. The total money in circulation was 2 dollar as there were only two pieces of 1 dollar coins circulating around.

1) There were 3 citizens living on this island country. A owned the land. B and C each owned 1 dollar.


2) B decided to purchase the land from A for 1 dollar. So, A and C now each own 1 dollar while B owned a piece of land that is worth 1 dollar.

The net asset of the country = 3 dollar.

3) C thought that since here is only one piece of land in the country and land is non produce able asset, its value must definitely go up. So, he borrowed 1 dollar from A and together with his own 1 dollar, he bought the land from B for 2 dollar.


A has a loan to C of 1 dollar, so his net asset is 1 dollar.


B sold his land to C of 1 dollar, so his net asset is 2 dollar.


C owned the piece of land worth 2 dollar but with his 1 dollar debt to A, his net asset is 1 dollar.


The net asset of the country = 4 dollar.


4) A saw that the land he once owned has risen in value. He regretted selling it. Luckily, he has a 1 dollar loan to C. He then borrowed 2 dollar from B and acquired the land back from C for 3 dollar. The payment is by 2 dollar cash (which he borrowed) and cancellation of the 1 dollar loan to C. as a result, A now owned a piece of land that is worth 3 dollar. But since he owned B 2 dollar, his net asset is 1 dollar.


B loaned 2 dollar to A. So his net asset is 2 dollar.


C now has the 2 coins. His net asset is also 2 dollar.


The net asset of the country = 5 dollar. A bubble is building up.


5) B saw that the value of land kept rising. He also wanted to own the land. So he bought the land from A for 4 dollar. The payment is by borrowing 2 dollar from C and cancellation of his 2 dollar loan to A.


As a result, A has got his debt cleared and he got the 2 coins. His net asset is 2 dollar.


B owned a piece of land that is worth 4 dollar but since he has a debt of 2 dollar with C, his net asset is 2 dollar.


C loaned 2 dollar to B, so his net asset is 2 dollar.


The net asset of the country = 6 dollar. Even though, the country has only one piece of land and 2 Dollar in circulation.


6) Everybody has made money and everybody felt happy and prosperous.


7) One day an evil wind blowed. An evil thought came to C’s mind. “Hey, what if the land price stop going up, how could B repay my loan. There is only 2 dollar in circulation, I think after all the land that B owns is worth at most 1 dollar only.”


A also thought the same.


8) Nobody wanted to buy land anymore. In the end, A owns the 2 dollar coins, his net asset is 2 dollar. B owed C 2 dollar and the land he owned which he thought worth 4 dollar is now 1 dollar. His net asset become – 1 dollar.


C has a loan of 2 dollar to B. But it is a bad debt. Although his net asset is still 2 dollar, his Heart is palpitating.

The net asset of the country = 3 dollar again.

Who has stolen the 3 dollar from the country ?

Of course, before the bubble burst B thought his land worth 4 dollar.


Actually, right before the collapse, the net asset of the country was 6 dollar in paper. His net asset is still 2 dollar, his heart is palpitating.


The net asset of the country = 3 dollar again.

9) B had no choice but to declare bankruptcy. C as to relinquish his 2 dollar bad debt to B but in return he acquired the land which is worth 1 dollar now.

A owns the 2 coins, his net asset is 2 dollar. B is bankrupt, his net asset is 0 dollar. (B lost everything) C got no choice but end up with a land worth only 1 dollar (C lost one dollar) The net asset of the country = 3 dollar.

There is a however a redistribution of wealth.

A is the winner, B is the loser, C is lucky that he is spared.

Be healthy to make our near and dear happy

Always be healthy. If we are healthy our near and dear would be able to enjoy life along with us.

If we are healthy we can make ourself as well as others happy.

We should devote sometime everyday to improve our health.
We have our parents, our siblings, our spouse / partner, our children, friends, well wishers, we want to see them happy.

We should take care, what we eat, how much we sleep, do exercise, do yoga, pranayam, meditation, follow healthy lifestyle.

Are southpaw's / left handed different ?

I am left handed.Do we left handed think differently?

My personal experience is that I do not follow the herd.

I like to be myself. My personal definitions of good and bad, right and wrong are my own.

I like Yoga, Pranayam, Meditation in which non of my parents or siblings are interested.

Is it because I am southpaw / left handed?

Rajesh

Why do I feel sense of hurry when I approach any Ticket Window or an ATM?

Throughout my process of calmness and bliss and happiness and breathing, one activity of aproaching a ticket window or ATM, a feeling comes to me to hurry or reach that point faster than I want to.

As per my understanding this feeling is in me because of our development in school, office and home where we were asked to compete, complete our exam within alloted time, reach office early, complete project on time.

I have connected to calmness in most of the activities connected to the soul of each activity.

Still I have to learn to bring complete oneness with ticket window or ATM and feel sense of complete calmness, when approaching a Ticket Window or ATM.

Peace Calm Love Bliss
Rajesh

Silence

Silence brings peace and bliss. Since childhood I believed in silence. But within last three years I had to face two situations, where I wanted to keep silence, but could not, as I was blamed for something which I had never done or would never do, and unless I speak up, nobody from my family or my near and dear would believe me. They forced me to speak.

My childhood thinking that silence is gold broke.

To save myself from wrong blames I had to speak.

My childhood thought broke.

Now for me, not speaking up for myself is like not standing up for myself.
