From
turbulence to Calmness
From
anxiety to peace and happiness
From
agony to ecstasy
This
is what we want, what we dream of.
This
transition from bad to good is the inherent desire of
everybody in the present day civilized world – a difficult,
complex, exciting and hectic world that we live in.
Anxiety,
tension and constant stress, TAXING ON OUR PHYSICAL, EMOTIONAL
AND MENTAL ENERGY, have become intrinsical part of our
day-to-day life, everywhere – either at home or outside.
We
have ego, greed, selfishness, and jealousy inside our mind;
outside we have conflicts, problems, work-stress and
interactions with social environment. Thus our mind is
constantly strained and shattered. At times, we feel battered,
helpless, and friendless. We hanker to get rid of all these
stress and strain, search for a little bit of peace and
happiness.
But
how to achieve it? Where is the key to the path of contentment
and calmness?
THERE
ARE WAYS. There
are means to control the mind through disciplined body
exercise for mind and body are canonically bonded to each
other. But that too is to be achieved by none but you,
yourself, because your real agony and crisis can only be truly
felt by yourself.
ATMANAM
VIDDHI – know
thyself. Thousands of years ago, this was the prime
preaching of the wise old Indian Philosophers. This basic
ethical self-realization could fetch you the desired path of
mind-body contentment.
Perhaps
India is popularly known as a land of black magic and
miracles. But this is very unfortunate; regrettably this is a
falsified portrayal of wealthy philosophical heritage of
India. This heritage actually refers to the age old Vedic
Indian thoughts in which close conjugation of mind and body
was recognized. They could identify that body, mind,
intellect, and spirit are in comprehensive cohesion in human
life.
