Mind Conflicts

I keep running after the elusive perfect day without any conflicts. But never can have. There are different conflicts which trouble. There is a common pattern in all humans, the underlying theme is of desire vs morality. One major one which I have observed is as follows.

Oh yes you love the woman and want to make love with her right now, gently and truly but then the thoughts of monogamy or your spouse or she has a boyfriend, am I being led by selfish senses and not anything else... Enemy mind says "Control" the other mind says "Let go and love"... and life goes on.. there are more conflicts this is one.

work wok work

My life has been revolving too much around work. almost each day i have been spending 12 horus and even on weekend catching up with my work. Life is really shit i feel sometimes. At other times i feel arrogant about working so hard and look with a high nose and consider all others some lowly creatures... life is really confusing to live. The same aspect makes me feel shit and arrogant...

Life Myths - 1

Myth:

Visualize, Slog, Slog, Visualize, Slog and life will be as you desire... A happy ending.



A concept you would have seen in many movies one i remember is "In Pursuit of Happyness". Its a big myth media, movies, novels glorify this. the motivational speakers, spiritualists, trianers make money out of it.



I am not a pessimist or hopeless but i am a realist. I beleive that there are geniuses and mentaly challenged.. 2 extremes and all the billions of people on this earth are interspersed between this 2 extremes. Only a few are on the extreme and not everyone can become or is a genius. One genius who is born in penury and he may achieve what Will Smith did in the movie but that is once and only one in a lifetime.



This whole concept is so flawed but so interesting (come to think of it someone is promising you the world if you slog) that most people fall for it and only later they realize that it is not happening as they had seen, visualized and they get hopeless. hopeless to an extent that it becomes difficult to get them out of this and help find happiness.



True happiness comes from accepting yourself as you are and being able move ahead step by step from there. But at the same time also remember that at times destiny has a differnt story for you and you may end up being pushed backwards.. The happiness comes from the journey and having some love around you. Your acceptance of your self and having people around you who repsect who you are and help in taking you ahead in the journey of life.



Even our education system is made of making everyone a genius/ expert, however they have a new concept of multiple intelligence and one should find his/ her attribute of intelligence where one is genius. It is flawed it must just focus on finding what you are better at and can make a good living and you can grow.



True happiness lies in finding yourself and knowing yourself and planning life accordingly. Not biting more than you can chew that you choke yourself or not dreaming what will only frustrate you and make you feel smaller. Just know and move ahead.. you may become a genious in this way but may not also. Just get along and enjoy the journey...

Restrain the fun...2

The last time I wrote I got carried away with too many thoughts in the mind. This is an attempt to give the logic again in simple manner why we must restrain the fun even though you are going to die anyway.
If we go back in history our very old anscestors who had not even discovered fire, for them earth was as much as they could walk. it was a flat surface for them. Pleasure had a different meaning. We evolved, fire was discovered, life meaning changed.. the basic understanding of what life is all about changed. We evolved further more intelligent scientists came across machines were made, moon was discovered, so many things have changed or evolved with time and each time the meaning of life is redefined by the best of scientists. Every time we do and debunk the earlier ones (which a while back was the only truth known).
In this flux we have realized that science and logical thinking has not been able to answer all about life. There are so many miracles which happen around us. Science has not been able to explain. Miracles associated with spritiual practices like meditation, reiki, EFT, astrology, past life experiences of people. None can be answered through moder science or logic.
The only intelligent deduction of all this therefore is to accept we do not know everything, logic even if the most intelligent one fails to answer much about life. It changes each time with each new discovery.
if logic has its weaknesses and there is a proof of life beyond our comprehension how do we lead the life? we should lead to discover the unknown as some miracles tell us that there is a life larger than what we understand. much larger !! we should experiement and enlarge our experience... if that is to be done we will have to work and restrain the fun. restrain to move up to a higher plane.
Thats one strong reason to restrain the fun.
Another one is look at life of people who have had unrestrained fun. You will see it comes with a equal lot of pain as you become dependent on having it always.. but body, mind, money gets depleted with unrestrained fun. drive a car without breaks and it will meet with an accident.. it may damage you, the car.. it will be painful you may be hurt, it will require much hard work from now as you will not have any car any longer. It comes with equal or greater pain, in that case the overall fun mathematically speaking fun - pain is always "zero" or negative.
This is another strong reason to restrain !!
Life has extreme beauty !! Beauty is all over, all around you. Discover, experience with compassion and love and you will be surprised restraining the fun (fun defined as per sensual pleasure) will lead to a lot of happiness and peace...
