Sane living

Alexander the great, went about conquering the world. He killed many and had several victories to his name. Eventually he died of a mosquito bite, while dying he asked his generals to lay out the arms of his dead body to show people around that he was carrying nothing with him. In his death bed, Alexander understood the futility of leading a life devoted to the pursuit of achievements.

Competing and striving for better status is what a rat race is all about. How wise is this way of living? There is succinct sutra in the Hindu scriptures – “we come empty handed and we leave empty handed, why do you struggle so much in the interim”. There is a stark truth in this pithy saying.

Remember that the point is not to give up on life, but to stop living it insanely. No one is asking you to denounce everything and go to the jungles or caves. You can function beautifully in the society without struggling or suffering its conditioning.

Many people are becoming more and more aware of the foolishness of indulging this rat race of existence. That’s all it takes. You just need to see the insanity to step out of it. Here are few simple truths of life that can help you get out of the rat race mentality.

Your mind conditioning is running you – A person who blindly involves himself in a rat race for success and achievement, is just living his conditioning. May be he/she was criticized as a child and felt the need to prove his/her worth to the society. This is just negative conditioning and it’s silly to the core. When you know that your programming was dysfunctional, you can easily step out of it. You are not your conditioning when you live consciously.

All is one eventually – This is not a spiritual concept. You can easily see the truth of life is “oneness”. Everything came out of one source into existence. We can call it the big bang or anything else to suit our intellectual needs, but the fact is that everything is that one source manifested as form. So when everything is the one, why are we trying to out do each other? When Jesus said – “Love thy neighbor as thyself”, he was pointing to the simple truth that everything is one, when you hate or resent someone you are eventually hating yourself. When you understand this you will immediately get out of the rat race.

Nothing matters in the end – The Alexander story proves it, you can also look at the lives of other famous men or women of our times. Do they really carry their achievements with them once their tenure on earth is terminated? Even the most stable and concrete structure eventually falls down and becomes dust. Why do you associate so much importance to material achievements? With time everything comes to an end, how ever immortal it may seem. Relationships, careers, popularity, all of this comes to end sooner or later. Enjoy what life gives you but stop struggling and suffering for it.

The future is not going to liberate you – Are you seeking your happiness in your future while suffering in the present moment? If you look closely does it not look insane to do so. The future is just a mind projection, a phantom image which has no reality. When it does come it will come as the present moment. Since you are always looking at the future for salvation, you will never be happy in the present no matter what it brings you. True happiness comes from within and not from acquiring this or that, everything else is just fleeting. With a rat race mentality, you will be happy for a moment when you achieve something and immediately start worrying about the next achievement.

Nothing you achieve will bring contentment – Have you not noticed this to be true in your life so far? You constantly strain and suffer to get ahead of the “mind created” competition, but to what avail? As soon as you achieve one thing you will strive for the next. Your life will be an endless struggle till you finally lay down for your last rites. What an utter waste of a life time? Contentment comes when you see that everything is pointless and the only thing that matters is your present moment enjoyment of what life gives you.

You don’t feel fulfilled because you don’t know your true self – Your true nature is peace. This is the call of spirituality all over the world. The mind conditioning is not your true nature, it’s just a bunch of ideas and thoughts that make you indulge in a rat race. You are afraid of the future because you seek your identity through it. Your essence or true nature is that of stillness, it’s a simple awareness of all that is. The only place where you can find your true nature is in the present moment awareness, when you mind stops churning out so much noise and fear.

Escaping the rat race is the first step to sane living. Focus on what you have rather than what you want to achieve. Continue with your duties and work but don’t seek yourself through them. There is a peace and joy to life when you are not constantly worried about the next thing to achieve.

Choice is yours!

Three possibilities exist:

1) all is pure chance, leaving no ground or reason for anything - ethics, compassion...... (Science).
2) an all-powerful being,. a 'creator God', arbitrarily blessing or dooming for life and for eternity according to his whims.....the proverbial clay being turned into pots for noble or menial use. (Orthodox monotheistic religion)
3) that each is the fashioner of his own destiny, leaving no room for blame onto any 'God' , not even onto chance. (Justice and common sense)

Choice is yours.

Quantum healing

Quantum Healing is a term used to describe healing practices that utilize the principles of Quantum Theory and Quantum Mechanics.

Quantum theory states that when the Mind observes a set of circumstances or phenomena, it has an impact on the outcome ("the observer effect"). The impact the Mind will have upon the outcome will be determined by the state of Mind of the observer.

In Quantum Healing, the Mind is the primary instrument used to heal the body. The Mind of the "healer" (yourself or another) must be in a "healthy" state if it is to have a healing effect on the body.

Illness or disease in the human body is almost always caused by this thing we call "stress". But what is stress?

There are many definitions for stress, but for our purposes here I prefer this one, "Stress occurs when our beliefs, or what we think is true, are in conflict with what we know to be true in our own Heart."

When the Mind is in a state of stress (false or inaccurate beliefs) it will have a negative impact upon the body. This can create illness or disease.

When the Mind is in a state of appreciation and well being, it will have a positive effect upon the body and can result in healing.

Knowing how to create a healthy state of Mind is the only secret you need to know to effectively use Quantum Healing in your own life.

Identifying false fear-based beliefs and replacing them with Love-based Truth from the Heart will create a healthy Mind. When a healthy, peaceful, appreciative Mind observes an illness or disease in the body it will have a healing effect upon that condition or disease.

This is the observer effect in action, and can account for so-called "miracle cures", energy healing, spiritual healing, and even the placebo effect.

Magnetise energy to your life

Like Attracts Like

If you had magnets stuck all over you, you would expect some things to stick to you, others to leap away and still more to show no reaction.

In a sense this is what happens in life. You unconsciously transmit your energy.

Some of your qualities are magnetic and others repellent.

You have drawn towards you everything and everyone who is in your life. Other things and people you have repelled. Many situations have no magnetic pull towards you.

A radio transmitter broadcasts on a particular frequency. Anyone interested in a programme going out on that waveband tunes in.

You are the transmitter.

You broadcast the play of your life. You send out into the ether the story of your patterns, emotional energy, mindsets, denials, likes and dislikes and much more.


Imagine you want to find an interesting programme. There are hundreds to tune into and you are flicking through the channels trying to decide which one to listen to. Most of them you tune out immediately. Now and again one will catch your attention. It may be heavy, funny, boring or interesting, violent or peaceful. You may like some aspects but be repelled by others.

Nevertheless, you are hooked in.

In the same way we attract people to us. People who do not resonate on our frequency simply are not attracted to us. They just pass by.

The vibration you emit is made up of your conscious and unconscious energy, some repellent, some magnetic, some neutral.

The underlying law is; Like attracts Like. We attract into our lives people and situations that have similar vibrations to our own.

•Negative qualities such as neediness, desperation, depression, greed, unkindness or thoughtlessness transmit on a low frequency. If we have elements of these in our nature, we will magnetise someone with similar energy into our life.

•Qualities such as love, kindness, happiness, delight or generosity transmit a high-frequency energy and also magnetise people with similar energy.


As We Develop Spiritually Awareness We Realise That The Universe provides mirrors for us to look into.


Look around you and note the characters around you. They are taking part in the play of your life for a reason.

The more vehemently we deny that we are magnets for a particular type of person or situation, the more our Higher Self is asking us to look at our shadow.

If you feel ready to commit to a relationship but your partner will not do so, look within at your own fear of commitment. He or she simply would not be there if you were one hundred percent sure. The moment you resolve your underlying belief, the other person will either commit to you or leave your life and allow someone who can commit to enter.

The person who is always cheerful and happy but seems to be surrounded by depressed people has attracted them to mirror their inner unhappiness. They serve a purpose, possibly to make them feel needed.

Our underlying beliefs attract situations and people to us. If you have a belief that you are not deserving, you will attract people into your life who mirror that belief back to you by treating you badly.


The Law Of Attraction works on many levels.

•If you are out of harmony with life you may attract food which disagrees with you.
•If you think self critical thoughts you are taking little swipes at yourself.
•If you are burying rage, you may draw in attack, physically, emotionally or even psychically.


These things may of course be a return of Karma, which is the unevitable balancing of right and wrong over lifetimes.

Whenever you do something because you feel you should or ought to, then you are in bondage. You will attract situations and people that keep you in bondage.

If, on the other hand, you are sending out positive energy, you will attract help when you need it.

If you think negative thoughts, you attract negative situations and people. Whenever something is not materialising as you expect, examine your underlying feelings and change them. Then magnetise what you want.

The inner attracts the outer.

•If something in your outer world is not what you want it to be, look inside and shift how you feel about yourself. You will then automatically attract people and experiences to you.

•Do not send out negative energy and wait for a disaster to be magnetised towards you. Send out positive light and wait for a miracle to be drawn towards you.

You are a magnet. You attract like you.

Does luck exist?

I often hear people asking, "Do you believe in luck?" and it always makes me wonder what they mean by "luck", and what to answer to it when they ask such a question. I will put my explanation of the word.

Some say Luck is destiny and some say it is coincidence.

You can surely call pleasant coincidences your "good luck" and unpleasant ones your "bad luck", but there is no reason to think that something miraculous as "luck" governs your life. There is no reason for giving up control of your life. Yes, your life will surely be affected by the dynamics around you, but then you are also a part of the dynamics in that your existence also affects the whole! Makes sense? So, you had better be active rather than counting on your luck!

Lack of control is an illusion. If you are the creator, all things are under your control. Some people say that control is an illusion but the opposite is the real truth.

How can you not be in control when all things are under your control? Realize the aspect of yourself that is divine, your Godhood. God is in control of all things, and God is the Self of all, which is your Higher Self. You are the Higher Self. You create all of your reality. There is no aspect of your reality which you do not create. Therefore you control all.

You are not a victim. All power is within and is absolutely under your control. To say that things happen through another cause other than yourself is to say that you are a victim.

Nothing happens outside of you. Everything is happening within you. You are Consciousness, and Consciousness encompasses All That Is. Whenever you feel not being in control, you are experiencing an illusion. You created the illusion of not being in control, of not being God. You are the director of the script and can control at will.


Intention controls results. Everything is created by your intention. Even when what you desire comes at a time or in a way that seems beyond your control, it is still your intent that brought it into manifesting.
There is no God outside of you that makes things happen. Everything is within you and within God. Nothing happens to you outside of you. When you realize this truth, you know that you are the creator of everything that happens in your life. The idea that something else makes things happen is not truth.

When undesirable things happen, you are simply being moved mentally or physically towards somewhere else that is closer to what you want. It is you moving yourself. Those undesirable things are not created by something external of you to affect you. They are part of your intent. Your intent arranges and rearranges the universe to move you to closer to where you wan to be. The rearrangement of the universe may seem to be something that is happening on its own but it is you who control it with intention.

By fixing the mental images in your mind, you will be better able to manifest the two phases as occasion arises. To create a thing you must want it with a burning desire that allows no denial, backed up by a will that knows no such word as "can't" or "no."

Besides its role as the director of the energy, the will serves a very important office as the restrainer of Desire Force. When under the control of the "I" of the person, and taking the suggestion of reason and judgment, it is able to prevent one from expressing undesirable or hurtful desires. It refuses to project the Desire Force, or to allow the desire to take effect in action. It also turns back the desire upon itself, and refuses to allow it to manifest. The will prevents negative manifestation upon the plane of action.


And the will has still another important function. It acts as a protector. The will repels the influence or vibrations of another mind, and renders its possessor immune to undesirable thought-waves. It creates a protective aura around the individual, which will turn aside the thought-waves or vibrations which may reach him, whether such be sent directly to him or whether they are the vibrations emanating from minds of others and unconsciously sent forth. A strong soul retains strong individuality and thinking.

Feeling is living thought. Everything that is worthwhile was produced by this feeling thought. Feeling—Desire— Emotion—Passion—Wanting— Willing—Demanding—these are the things that have creative power. So do not deceive yourself with this ''holding the thought," or any such nonsense of which you have heard so much until you get sick at the mention of the words. It is not simply "holding the thought," it is "holding the desire," and backing it up with the will that does the work. Desire-Will is intent.

Each one of these centers of energy seems to have two poles of activity, one of which acts in the direction of impelling, driving, pushing, forcing, urging, directing, etc., the action being always "outward"; and the other acting in the direction of drawing, pulling, attracting, coaxing, alluring, charming, leading, etc., the action always being "inward." One seems to be a masculine force, the other a feminine force. One seems to act as Will-Power; the other as Desire-Force. The Desire aligns, and the will acts.

These two poles of Mind Power possessed by each center are called the motive pole, and the emotive pole, respectively. As in all other things, a combination of the masculine and feminine qualities and characteristics produces the best results. Each has its strong and weak points, but together they are irresistible along all lines of work, physical, mental and spiritual. Desire is emotive force which is internal action. Will is motive force which is external action. Desire translated into Will is Magic work.

To live as a powerful creator, you have to banish the illusion once and for all that you are not in control. Because you will always arrive back at the core truth that you are the creator of your reality and that you control all of it. Not being in control makes you feel like a victim.

When you focus on what you can do to create what you want, you take back the power. Your intent brings you the knowledge, the awareness and the energy to create what you want. Everything that happens can be traced back to intent.

Life is Beautiful.....

Life is full of surprises…..Whether it’s good or bad…No matter what happens… Happens for a reason…!!!

It takes you through lot of ups and downs in life….But it helps you become stronger day by day….Sometimes, You have a reason to be happy and Super excited ….Where as you as well have a reason to feel low at times….Similarly, There are two sides of life…Brighter side of life always makes you smile and darker side of life helps fight back when unexpected things happen and things go wrong, when you are unlucky at times.

I am sure everyone would have experienced both the flavors of life…So we just need to know how to be balanced and focused in life….!

Is Tradition really needed to live life?

Traditions are mostly useful. But let us explore the ones that aren't so useful. The type of tradition that is for tradition sake. The ones that are generally referred to when confronted as "we've always done things that way."

Why are we so tied to them? Why do we allow them to effect the way in which we do things when all they are, are roadblocks to moving forward? Do we use them as crutches to force us to stay they way we wanted to be? Is it some nostalgic why to inhibit progress of any type?

We should all be evaluating the traditions in our life that help us and the ones that hurt us. We should all view them as if we are an outsider and really look at their importance. Do they help or hurt? Do they wax or wane? Do they progress or regress?
