Shhh....power of silence!!
'Om', probably the only word in the spiritual world that does not have a religion tagged to it. Some may argue that it is part of the Hindu custom, but I beg to differ. It might have originated from Hinduism but a sound that does not have a religion or caste attached to it. Well that is my view.
I recently got a message in whats app from my friend and believe me, I have not seen such a wonderful message till date. Here it is:
~ In spite of so much to eat - Fasting is considered healthy
~ In spite of so much to travel & explore - Meditating is considered superior
~ In spite of so much to see - Closing your eyes and looking within is considered eternal
~ In spite of so many voices, words & sounds - Silence is considered ultimate
and the list goes on. A simple message and yet so powerful it is. All the answers lies within ourselves. Even we are nothing but our 'Soul' but in every unfortunate circumstances we try to find the solutions outside. Aren't we all ignorant?
My mother took me to a Homeopathy doctor whom she used to visit regularly. The first visit I had with him was as usual until he said all the secret lies in uplifting the soul. I did ask him what he meant by that. He recommended that I walk for at least 3 kilometers per day and meditate for about 10 minutes regularly. He would look at my health post that. Basically he wanted me to learn discipline in life and improve my lifestyle. Now that we have crossed almost 3 to 4 months, I have tried my best to keep up to the promise I made him. The reason I narrated this story is to suggest that upliftment of the soul is the answer to today's problems.
"Follow your soul....it knows the way" they say. To know what your inner consciousness is trying to say, we would need to be silent. Hmm...let me stop this blog with it. I want to remain silent too.
!Om Shanti Shanti Shanti Om!
