Death and mud

After the last breath is released only body remains. The breath is given back to the winds. The body is burnt and the water goes into the clouds through the fire that facilitates burning. The remains are mixed with the soil and are offered to the river to meet the oceans.

 

Can you sense that energy when these elements interact with you in your surroundings? The air you breath, the water you drink , the soil on which you walk and the sun that gives energy. They mix and form and give birth and then they disintegrate and are returned back to nature. And it happens with everyone. No one is spared death. It is a certainty and the only certainty. Rest all comes and goes but death persists. The death is release of energy in environment that you can subscribe to and build on.

 

When everyone is mud then why do we have opinions? If you have the resources then why don’t you simply share it. Are you bounded by life and freed by death? Or are you free for life and after too. Go melt everyone and see the sand and walk over, fear is simply a perception, a feeling to guard against harm. And what harm can a piece of mud do to another?

 

Nature is free. Life is free. Death is certain. Die when you have to or die every minute before you have to. The choice is actually not a choice, one thing is certain and other is free to take and embrace. Or you can choose to embrace certainty before you have to and just because you are afraid of exercising your freedom. Shout, scream and shake or simply play and enjoy the game of life.

You don’t die after each good or bad experience, you come out shaken or thrilled but alive. Events are like moves of the games, some move could be to partner and some could be to opponent and some could be simply out of play but the sequence continues until the game ends. You can learn from the game and play the next one better or you can die with each game and forget about the rest or better wait for death.

You are born, you are alive and then you die.

You cannot choose when to be born or die but you can choose to live and be alive.

Success is exchange of energy

By
The definition of success is very elusive. It means different things in different phases of life to different people. When I was in school and college it was to pass somehow. When I was in 12th it was to get into engineering somehow. When I was in job it was to make more money anyhow. When you were in marriage it was to demand happiness and feel proud in pronouncing to yourself that every act of a frustrating job was for the sake of family and their well being. I was focusing on doing. I was focusing on achievement. So whenever I reflected back in life I always felt less. I could have been an IITian, I could not crack CAT. I could not join an organization during their early stock offer days. I could not go to US and earn in dollars. I simply missed doing too many things.  Now I feel lack of achievement. Now I feel lack of doing. Did I miss out on something while I was undergoing all this doing? Why was I nervous all this while? Why did one achievement led to other? Why...

Shivani, Brahmakumaries and Aastha channel

By
She comes twice on TV from 7:10 PM to 7:40 PM and 10:30 to 11:00 PM on Aastha channel. The spiritual channel story in India is on same lines as that of Aaj Tak , which was run by local ads before the big boys put ads on them. Today Shivani, a Brahmakumari mentioned that 99% of the cause of anger and frustration is elsewhere, it is not in the spur of the moment, when you hurt somebody or get hurt by somebody. Instead of reacting instantaneously , or pestering the reaction in the mind post the incident till eternity , can you wonder "Why is that soul so angry, what is bothering her? I am sure there is something more than what she has told me now?". The chain of thoughts that emerge lead you to compassion, releases love vibrations into the air. Love has a very subtle medium to reach out. You cannot yell and throw around love and claim that you are helping somebody by your love. You have to surrender to love and let love take over. You cannot correct the world. You can onl...

fix for tweetmeme button on blogger

By
This was the second time when I was pained to locate a proper place to place the tweetmeme buton in blogger. The tutorial has suggested keeping it between b:loop values = 'data:posts' var = 'post'> and ‘b:loop’. Also there are two such places where you can place the code. If you place in lower one then it will appear only if ads appear in your blog. The above has not worked for me and I am not sure about you, do you Meme?. I searched for a place near the spans at end of post and put it above the below line " <p class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'> And it seems to work. You can meme below and retweet and check for yourself. Have you been struggling with button placement in blogger?
