The Teacher.

Hello readers

Hope you enjoyed the week, on this lovely Saturday morning wanted to discuss about a topic that everyone would love to read .I wanted to recollect my teachers whom I always have respected and will continue to respect them.

Let’s go back to some 20 years ago when we were all kids ,and did not know the meaning of life ,the criticalities of life ,basically we had no idea how life works!

What we knew was to ask for what we desire, and cry if we don't get it, and ask questions that sometimes made sense and sometimes didn't make any sense.

Just think for a while who helped us, when we had those fresh questions in our mind, like why does a dog bark? why is the sky blue and so on ,may be the first person who used to answer your questions ,was your mother or your dad ,the next person would be I am sure your favourite teacher in your playschool .

We all can never forget that teacher ,whom we used to like and love very much ,since she used to be like a mom in your school taking care of you ,even though from a professional aspect her job was to help you learn the ABCs, the number system and other basic steps in education ,she helped you built the basic value tutelage ,that you follow even today.

Then the years rolled by, you grew up, and now you are in your high school may be in the same school ,and now your teachers are still more serious ,because the level of your education has changed ,and now you are  a more accountable youth ,and want to become that person you have always dreamt of becoming.

Again the teacher is the one who will help you, to pursue your dream.

Well we should all agree on this fact ,as people say this world works on documents ,it also unquestionably works on teachers .

Yes is that is true, just take any profession in this world from a hawker to an astronaut he has to first be thought the lessons of life that motivation and will drive him in the path of knowledge, in whatever field he likes to .

The supreme part about a teacher is that whatever you become in life, wherever you are today and how great you are today is I am sure it’s because of a teacher.

Teacher is the most holy profession in the world where ,the knowledge which is considered as a divine force in India ,and the Guru is considered a God .It is also the most self-less profession ,which in Bhagavad-Gita considered as the Karma Yoga ,which means to do your job and leave the results to God and never expect anything in return .

Well I will end this discussion here and take this opportunity, to thank all my teachers who have shown me the correct approach to lead life.

I bow to all my teachers.

Thanks a lot for your time, have a great day ahead.

The phase.

Hello readers

Hope you are doing great.

Many negatives become a positive, so just wait for it.

-Anonymous

Today I wanted to talk about this phase of life ,that I am sure we all would have gone through ,we can call it the phase that takes you to the summit of a mountain. The phase that will test your grits, in meeker words some people say, “Oh is going through a rough ride “we also call it suffering.

You know I have been thinking of writing about this theme from many months, but I was always feeling why should I write about such a negative topic, when there are many positive topics around to write?

But I realized late that, this can also be considered as one of the affirmative topics, and will also help people to get over this situation.

We suffer due to many problems in life, some problems, come and stick on to us, in a way that we never predicted, and some are perianal problems, like an aliment we are suffering from ,which is quite understandable and ,the only person who can help us at that moment would be a doctor.

This question is to all the people who have suffered, and gotten out of it, What was it like to suffer?

Well we all know the answer, at least the one who suffered know ,what we would have felt is a very bizarre situation ,where we lose ,hope ,feel depressed and feel lifeless and dull.

But there is an important thing, we all forget each time we suffer ,that is we devise a solution to come out that suffering we underwent don’t you think that is so positive and wonderful ?the only trade-off is the time it takes to come out of that suffering .

We must all understand that, the time it takes to get out of that misery is with you, if we sit on that problem and crib, cry, or just scream on others, it’s not going to work out.

It’s all about working, towards a direction in which we can solve that source of that anguish and come out of it.

I feel it takes lot of determination and fortitude for a person, to accept that he is suffering and, he must also be brave, and fight this condition out to come out of it.

Sufferings are the testing points in everyone’s lives .It tests how much stress can you take, some people say God is just testing us ,whatever it is ,finally it is a steep mountain that we need to climb reach the summit ,which is the limit for that suffering and it descends as the height of that mountain slopes!

The key in life according to me is never losing hope.

Let’s consider the suffering and face it bravely, and get good experiences in life which will give us all a great deal of psychological maturity.

All the best, thanks for your time.

Gen Next.

Hello readers

Hope you all are doing great.

When love and skill work together, expect a masterpiece.

-Ruskin Bond.

The upcoming generations are very much advanced than mine that is one positive take always for today.

But it still it, has its own shortcomings.

So today wanted to talk about some of the needs this generation is lacking and how to cultivate them.

Let us first understand what we are lacking. This generation though way ahead and smarter than mine,

I feel this generation, lacks some key qualities which are required like presence of mind, responsibility and the sense of humour.

I remember my childhood, that was a total time of enjoyment and being happy always. Yes I do agree that the level of happiness cannot remain the same, it differs and completely depend how we approach life, and try to see happiness always and ignore that sad part.

Humour.

But what about, the sense of humour part, come on this generation kids no long smile to a joke they really need, something very amusing to make them smile I mean just smile!

Isn't that sad? , we all know a famous proverb which says laughter is the best medicine! So we just discuss, as to why this current trend are kind of serious, my answer would be well they are more matured than we were, in that age.

That is actually a good point. But do think they are over matured for their age, a recent survey, I read about this on the Internet, and it said yes, there is 32% relative increase, in brain maturity rates and emotional out bursts, which is actually in spoken English means both laughing and crying.

As I told you this is good, but some get over matured and become too serious in life which I feel is not necessary.

Responsibility.

This quality is very important for the success of any individual. Let me be very clear I don't expect small children to take responsibility before even they know how this world works! I am talking about teenagers who are going out of track.

We must all acknowledge the fact that our older generations took more pressures and responsibility, than we are taking now ,which is quite natural ,considering the time lines ,the political and fiscal environments they belonged to .So we must start teaching the values ,like being responsible for his owns actions from a smaller age.

Presence of mind.

This is actually one of the strategies which is followed by greatest people whoever lived  on earth, it is experiencing and living that moment rather than just seeing time!?

People with a good presence of mind are selected in the best schools in the world, and from a professional aspect they are selected by, top investigative agencies in the world like the FBI, CIA, so why is that.

It is because a person with a good presence of mind can take thoughtful decisions, and he lives that moment with commitment. It is sad that the present generations due to the passive environment they live in, If I suppose tell them there is dead crow, they would first see the sky?!Do you think this is stupid ?but I guess its not ,they define it psychology as the passive reflex syndrome ,where kids and young adults lose the ability to keep their presence of mind on ,due to various reasons.

So I want the parents of the Gen next to start, guiding their children to develop all these basic skills of life, rather than just dumping them into top class schools, and just heading out for work and, just meeting that kid at a dinner table, before he or she goes to bed. I guess that is not the correct way to do it.

We as elders need to interact with children and understand their problems, give them responsibilities, as we were given; they say it in a famous proverb “home is the first school”. Therefore we must be a good direction for the Gen next to dream that goal, they might have.

Motivate your kid towards socializing; let him laugh his hearts out.

Let us all understand that ,irrespective of how much we develop ,and improve the way we lead our life, the air we breathe and the ,water we drink won’t change ,until something radical happens to change this, similarly teaching the Gen next to become these confident individuals to lead life on their with minimum help from others is very essential.

Thanks a lot for your time have a great weekend.

All the best

Root cause,The self research.

Hello readers

Hope you are doing great.

You are always more capable than you think you are.

-Einstein

Life moves on each day, we all keep wondering always the good and bad happening to us each day, so I thought let’s start thinking about the root cause of all things that are happening.

So let me tell a small story, Mr Beagles is a successful person in life and very much satisfied with his own life, he is also very jovial with all the people and also has a good helping nature and also a compassionate person.

But still in his life he is used to undergo phases, where he used to feel disheartened from various reasons like a petty fight with his wife or children, a small argument with his boss at his work place and so on.

It so happened that he met an old friend one day and found that he is also working in a similar industry same as Mr.Beagels, so they started discussing about their respective businesses and also socializing with each other families.

Beagles was surprised to see that his friend never used to crib about things and this made him realise he is actually the person happy in life.

So he made up his mind asked his friend, “Can you please tell me how you manage to be so happy in life”?

The friend replied “I see happiness in everything’’ and just smiled at Beagles” Mr.Beagels was very much confused with this answer and started thinking in depth about the answer being given by his friend.

After few months Mr.Beagels was also happy like never before and same with his wife, even though he was a satisfied man in life, he had never felt so pure and peaceful.

So what do you think is the trick that helped him to lead this happy life?

It’s nothing but thinking, when his friend said that he sees happiness, Beagles was puzzled how he can see happiness in all things like in situations of death or a disease.

Then the great realization struck to his mind that, of course his friend was suffering with many problems of life, he just spent time in thinking about this problems and stop being emotional abut it and was thinking on it in a deeper way and had found the root cause of his own problems and had taken responsibility to correct those problems.

So people there is no point in sitting on our own problems and just cribbing about them , we need to just get there, analyse and solve it like a mathematician who solves a problem. I think that is the most challenging part of life, and we need to move on from all these situations and try to balance our problems and deal with it instead of blame games ,and showing g anger on others.

Always remember if you want to quit, think why you started it!

All the best start thinking and, come let’s solve those petty problems.

Thanks a lot for your time, have a great weekend.

The Sigmoid Curve.

Hello readers

Hope you guys are doing well .

Do not wait until the iron is hot; but make it hot by striking.

-William Butler Yeats

Well it’s another gloomy day here in Bangalore, a great season to take out the blankets and sleep.

But definitely we need to work towards our goal and then we will sleep in peace, well today wanted to talk about growth and difficulties in growing.

We all have heard about the title, the sigmoid curve, it is usually quoted in two fields, of science in mathematics and biology .In mathematics it is been studied in a bigger branch of the subject called the calculus.

In biology a sigmoid curve helps in understanding the growth rate of animal, bacteria, the cells in our body and so on. There is a main characteristic of this curve that is the‘s’ shape and the gradual dips and boosts is also a feature to be observed.

When we start discussing the growth aspect, immediately we get the next thought, how the growth rate is, is there any hindrance that is slowing the growth? And so on. Definitely there will be always factors that will promote growth as well as demote the growth that is the rule of nature to maintain equilibrium.

Let’s start with Children ,when a child is born the parents are the most happiest people in the world ,they promote the growth of that child to the maximum extent possible by providing the essential values of life ,the love and care it needs. Then there comes a stage in the life of the child where he or she has reached equilibrium in the sigmoid.

The future dim or dip of the curve according to me should be taken care of that child, that is what determines the next aspect which is, how he or she will handle difficulties ,that are sure to first discourage the person’s growth but, getting out of these hard times will definitely will get the person success.

Now talking about is this word called difficulty, I feel this is an important word that makes its mark in a person’s life, it can make a person or break a person, it can make a person a hero or a complete loser in life, he becomes wise or a fool, if he does not know to handle difficulties, the foolishness can go so intense that sometimes it may lead to even death!

The part about death I was talking about is definitely not an exaggeration ,have we not seen people dying just because he did not get a nod from a Girl or his dad for his marriage ,come on can he even take that situation as a difficult one? That is the sad state of this world .People have lost the sense of differentiating, what they can handle and what they cannot! And consider all situations they face as difficult.

This happens due to loss of patience.

We want everything to happen in a jiffy like a pizza delivery! No that is not how life should work, there should be struggle in life we must face difficulties, drown in them and then come out clean, like a fish out of a dirty pond.

These difficulties are the testing times in a person’s life.

It starts suddenly ,escalates and goes to a  point where we feel it’s all over !then it stays there for a while and after that the breaking point is reached from the next moment what you will see is only a life of success where you can be confident to face the upcoming difficulties of life.

When we see the sigmoid curve after the equilibrium point it moves further higher ,we must not mistake that its becoming more worse than before ,because according the theory in biology the growth further moves on ,so we can interpret that our difficulties will come down and promote growth.

When we walk ,tripping is normal ,likewise for growth ,hindrance is natural ,that doesn’t mean we must close this book called life by just seeing the first few pages and thinking that it is difficult to read.

Let us face difficulties and grow wise, and help others to come out of the same situation and help them as well, to grow, to become better individuals in life.

Thanks a lot for your time, all the best, make sure your sigmoid always maintains its shape.

Have a nice day.

Self healing-The key to success.

Hello readers

A very good morning to all of you, hope you are doing fine.

It’s ok if you fail or if your being discouraged these tools will challenge you ,and  meanwhile you achieve success.

-Sri Subhas Chandra Bose.

So today wanted to talk about the concept of self-healing.

When we look at this concept of self-healing it is actually a very simple one and we all have this quality embedded deep inside our body and mind both biologically and mentally.

But have we thought about self-healing to solve our issues and difficulties in life let’s see.     

   

So the first self-healing mechanism was recorded some two centuries ago by many scientist and Gurus and we have lot of literature regarding the same.

We also are aware how advanced the field of medicine has become ,this filed is so vast that they have  cameras which can show you ,your own healing process using advanced delayed photography.

Well healing a cut or a wound is the first type of healing which we are familiar with.

It is a great biological process where the body tries and is successful in repairing itself If we just observe the concept, we find that body tries to retain its original shape ,size ,chemical condition and other essentials how much ever its being damaged.

Isn’t that so wonderful?

Yes of course biologist call it homeostasis, where the body follows the two famous feedback methods called the negative feedback or the positive feedback method and tries to bring back your body to stability.

So in nature its very evident that self-healing is the key to survival? And that’s how we, supposed to be the most ‘advanced species’ of all times are here today.

Can we just apply this in our tiny little lives?

Of course we can, well I am not suggesting to, start sulking with diseases and never go to the doctors that will be foolish, but I feel we can definitely start analysing the problems of our own lives instead of just being emotional, weak minded and stop the blame game.

I had told you at the starting of this passage that this a very simple topic it’s about  , how we take our lives ,if we take it too seriously ,life will be the mahout and you will be that tamed elephant ,but if you take  life a little cool and calm and spend time in analysing it ,I am sure we can lead a heard of elephants!

We can lead a composed life. Where the graphs of emotions and productivity will go hand in hand.

What is the key ingredient of success for all the great people who lived and gave us great knowledge and invented things, that we are still fascinated about?, they never cared for tall the people who tried to pull them down they stood there like a rock and they were just oriented on their goal.

So by the time others tried to pull them they were surfing on success. They also controlled their emotions how much ever their mind was trying to cry inside, they maintained homeostasis

Remember we are the only ones responsible for what we are in life today, and you as person is the one who has to, self-heal and maintain homeostasis of your physical body as well as your mental self. The body takes care of itself, most of the time but you will have to take care of your mind.

Just look at the sky when you get a feeling that everything is breaking apart ,the birds fly with such high confidence ,the clouds pass by,some fail in the effort and give us rain some move forward,but they too will melt down.

In life ,there is a fun in every struggle that we undergo,every drop of your sweat ,turns into pearls after the day ends ,and you will sleep in peace ,and I am sure we can only be  peaceful through hard work and truthfulness.

Self-healing is the key to success ,because you’re the best judge ,to rate yourself and I am sure you have all the witnesses within you to prove yourself ,to forgive yourself and also punish yourself ,and at the end of your judgement we have a successful man .Who is self-healed!

All the best to you, start healing yourself.

Thanks a lot for your time, have a great weekend.

                       

2 Sides of a coin!

Hello readers

Hope you had a good week.

If you tell the truth, there is nothing you have to remember.

-Mark Twain.

Today wanted to talk about the two aspects of life that we all consider every day ,and react according to it ,one is a smiling face and another is the sad face, or positivity and negativity.

I see the direction in which we are looking at things is sometimes I feel is illogical.

For instance, a conversation between a mother and her child, “Mom I want to learn swimming “there can be two answers for this the first one would be will just be a OK and the child learns swimming.

The second answer can also be a no ,where the mother cautions of being drowned in water.

Ok I am sure all of us would have many situations in our life like this where your parents or guardians said no for ,what you wanted to do ,sometimes you were upset on them ,sometimes not ,but the point which is forgotten is there are many ways of telling no ,or just think ,should it be a no always!

I read an article recently in a popular magazine where ,it says an average human receives the answer 'no' ,at least some fifty thousand times in his life ,and the sad part is the brain too tends to become prone to  negative functionality response  which is now considered as disease ,which reduces self-confidence.

I agree that reasonable "nos" are fine, but why all the time?

So what is the solution for this, the solution is just within you,yes the guy behind the driver seat of the car you drive which is life ,it is how you drive this car in pot holes called negatives and come out happily with a positive smile, and make the passengers ,the people whom you come across in life appreciate on the way you drive!

We must definitely look at life in a positive way, we need to observe, that there is lot of positivity around us, but we tend to choose negativity! For the reasons I explained in the conversation.

Can we not think this way let all the positives remains positive and try to convert all negatives into positive!?

Let there be a balance between the two ,a negative situation is the one driving you towards growth remember that ,because it puts n to stress and strain and makes you worthwhile of the pain you underwent and also helps you in solving the problem by yourself.

A coin has 2 sides, it almost impossible that when you flip a coin it keeps falling  on the heads, or tails. Life also works in a similar way ,we will have ups and downs just look at how to come up when your down and try to stay up ,but if you fall down repeat the same .SO let’s stop being too hard on ourselves.

There is positivity in everything on this earth, it all depends on how we see it, just think of patriots ,saints mentors your teachers ,that one good boss you likes at your work ,some stranger who motivates you, the garbage collector who is focused on keeping your street clean, your old dog who always thinks only  guarding your house.

Remember great scriptures like Gita, Upanishads and all the good books In the world,  aims always to keep us motivated and feel positive.

Dear fellas they are all the glowing sources of positive energy.

I will always stay positive, come on let’s all live a positive life.

Thanks a lot for your precious time.
