"Are you happy?"

        "Are you happy? Is this what you wanted to do in life?" my inner voice rings the bell.           It does not matter what these folks in the outside world look for in you. It is ultimately the inner YOU that needs to be fulfilled at the last. Probably at my age (45+), yes this is what matters!        The goal isn't to competitive with others, but YOURSELF. The agenda is not materialistic pleasures anymore but SERVICE or CONTRIBUTE. With that being said, after all some of us are in the rat race to either earn money or build a career, only to realize is that all they wanted?  I see a lot of young folks following this race to make quick buck to retire early. It's their choice...no comments on it.       Do what you like and most importantly ENJOY...because YOLO. :)            

Ready to laugh at yourself!

          Did you look at your face today in the mirror when you got up? I did. My hair stood out like a Rockstar's spiky hairstyle. After all I am happy I did not had to spend Rs500 at saloon for this. My own  early morning look at times amazes me.            When I look back at my life journey, I know things did not work out the way I wanted it to be. But isn't it part of the bigger plan that I mapped out to? Rather than worrying for the things not in control of myself, it it indeed a blessing that meditation is helping me to let go of things. Ever made a fool of yourself, if the answer is 'no', believe me you have not lead your life to the fullest.           Smile, life is just a play. We are damn too serious in it. Relax, just have fun.              After all, the design is meant for us to be happy. Do what makes you happy.            ...

Peaceful Warrior - A true eye opener for me!

    A movie that has really moved me and educates me every time I watch it is 'Peaceful Warrior'. It has a decent script and acted wonderfully. I loved the movie for its simple teachings it gave me. Every human being has a purpose to our birth, wouldn't it be so good to find our what it is? Here are few things I learnt from the movie: a) "Empty your trash"                 Mind is the dustbin here...removing the unwanted thoughts and retaining what is relevant is the only way to lead the life blissfully. Doesn't it help us to achieve more by being in the present moment? After all this is what the yogis, sanyasi are preaching us over the years.        Being present and devoted to the moment 100% is bliss. b) Life's 3 rules        Paradox - Life is a mystery...don't waste time trying to figure it out.        Humor  - Keep your sense of humor especially about yourself....

Live by rules!

            Imagine you are about to cross that stage of life when everything is about to change. What if you don't care about the profession you work on, where you live, what you eat, who you care? Its finally about you. You only. Isn't that what you always wanted? Then why the set of rules to follow. No am not a teenager who is entering to his adolescence if that is what you are thinking.             Even as an adult you just have so much rules to comply by - get up at a particular time, go to work that you may not enjoy, attend the party that you no longer belong. At times you might feel that being all alone in some forest is the best way to enjoy the life. Who cares about the rules? Don't you agree.            Life isn't about these rules that you have imposed on yourself. Its much more than that. Freedom in every walk of life is what you would be thinking. How to get such a free life? Are w...
