MAGICAL CODE TO SHOO AWAY FAILURES & DIFFICULTIES

spirituality

“What is the difference between a ‘champion’ and an ‘average person’?”- This question was once asked to an English football player, Tom Hopkins. An apt and crisp reply came: “The single most important difference between champion achievers and average people istheir ability to handle rejection and failure.”

Perfectly true! To do a self-analysis check, just try answering genuinely in ‘yes’ or ‘no’ these questions:

Do you feel sad and disheartened when you meet with failures or difficulties?

What if these failures go on hitting you umpteen number of times?

Do you give up your determination when the world labels your idea as ‘impossible’?

Do you lose all your hopes, when situations don’t seem to be favouring you despite your maximum efforts?

If the answers to these questions are in ‘yes’, to whatsoever decibel of intensity, then here are a few exclusive real-life examples out of the innumerable ones, for you to receive sumptuous doses of inspiration!

The young and inexperienced shoulders of Chester Carlson were charged with the responsibility to look after the ailing parents due to adverse circumstances. When he was seventeen, he met with a sad demise of his mother. At the age of twenty four, his father also passed away. He struggled hard to earn a degree in physics, where after he tried rigorously for a job. Probably, you would receive a shock to know that he was rejected by “eighty two” firms before he made it to Bell Labs in New York.

In 1934, Chester was in a job where he had to make copies of drawings by hand. But, even after so many painful and challenging strokes, destiny was not yet over with its stock of difficulties for Chester. His hands used to pain a lot, with the problem aggravating as the time passed. Chester was suffering from the problem of arthritis. When his whole job and hence livelihood depended on his hands, which were now on their way to ditch him, what was Chester’s move? Did he quit the job… to take a difficult dive in the swarm of rejections? Or, was he readying himself to sit with his head in hands, crying and wailing over his state?

What choice he opted?

When difficulties, challenges and failures try to kick you hard and knock you down, don’t turn your mood off! That’s not the wise angle to look at things! Instead, adopt an intelligent perception… How? What is that magical code to shoo away all failures and difficulties? To know this and furthermore, read the complete article in February edition of English Akhand Gyan monthly magazine.

Are WE Ready to BRING About the CHANGE?

Are WE Ready to BRING About the CHANGE?

Have you ever witnessed a forest set on fire? The grand empire burning down to ashes, but in that hour of downfall also, the forest emperor standing tall in vanity…

In no time the grand empire which once stood lush and green is reduced to nothing more than a dark dead patch. And then there is that long waiting period for life to sprout again!!

Does this ring a bell??

This forest set on fire is no different from state of our world burning each day in rising flames of our innumerable social, economic and political problems. And we, the human race, reside as the emperor of this grand empire… Our empire is set on fire, but we stand in pride, dancing to the tunes of greed, passion, lust and rage. With no extinguisher in place, this fire is bound to grow and gulp in the whole empire in no time.

Definitely, we are all aware of all this. Newspapers keep regurgitating these stories. Visions of change have become an inseparable part of our coffee break… But WHAT change are we talking about??

A lush green forest, losing its beauty in the hands of fire needs to be restored back to its beauty…We want to set the chaos right. We want an ever-growing, blossoming new world. Then what is stopping us from bringing this change?

We can innumerate a thousand problems which scar the face of the world; we can have another hundred thousand perspectives to dissect each of these problems; another hundred thousand policies can be put in place to deal with these problems. But the point is that after all these discussions, all this sharing of information, after all these policies, all these public campaigns, the fire is just intensifying, the problems are ever growing… the call of change rising unanimously from all directions simply seems far from realisation.

The million dollar question here is WHY is the CHANGE not coming?

A quote by an American scientist, Peter Michael Senge, throws light on this WHY. He said,

“People don’tresist change, they resist being changed”

We are a society which desperately wants change, but is itself posing the biggest resistance to the change it wants. We are caught in the play of Social Inertia.

In 2006, a poll was carried out in the Unites States asking its citizens their opinion on whether climate change is real or not. In response, 85% of the U.S. population indicated their belief that global warming is “probably happening”, while half asserted that the issue of global warming is “extremely important” to them. Ironically, the ubiquity of single occupant vehicles on U.S. highways remains undiminished.

It seems as if the sense of Urgency is just restricted to words. This is just one case of the social inertia. Likewise, take up any social issue – water conservation, gender discrimination, molestation, corruption, terrorism for that matter and do a Self-assessment.

Our world is not deprived of creative brains and our world is not deprived of able workers; but, our world is deprived of responsible citizens who are ready to explore their own depths to change themselves for bringing about the change.

Socialists often say that adverse consequences of the prevailing problems would come as a jolt to the masses and awakening would come subsequently. By logic, this phenomenon does seem to be a reality and the protest marches, the media campaigning do legitimise this argument. But the psychological phenomenon which counter-balances this action-reaction tendency is the famous “Life goes on” tendency.

Gruesome incidents, hue and cry on environmental issues do wake us up for a moment. But in no time cries die out, memories fade out and “Life goes on”. We get so engaged in our little lives that the responsibilities towards the larger change are forgotten. We fail to change ourselves.

Yes, a jolt is needed to awaken us, the physical and mental jolts need a foundation to last on; they need a medium where correct habits can be formed and we get shaped into responsible citizens. The medium cannot be external; we are the medium ourselves. We need to start the process of our change…the jolt needed is a spiritual Jolt, which can shake us out of our state of inertia and can awaken us to our spiritual plane – the most elevated and most powerful plane of our existence. Only then will we rise up to our responsibilities and take charge of our empire in full spirit.

The solution is there, but the question is – ‘Do we have the urge?’

Change can come anytime, the high flames of fire can be extinguished, but are we ready to unleash the fountains of wisdom within!!

Find an answer and begin your exploration for a true spiritual awakening!!

Change is waiting…

KICK OUT YOUR PAIN BY MEDITATION

KICK OUT YOUR PAIN BY MEDITATION

MEDITATION

The study evaluated the effect of meditation on pain intensity and unpleasantness reported by subjects and changes in brain activation patterns were measured by functional MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging). Heat applied by a thermal simulator assessed the pain response. A comparative analysis reported a 40% reduction in pain intensity and a 57% reduction in unpleasantness associated with pain (measured by heat stimulus) after meditation training.

At the same time, scans demonstrated that meditation increased brain activity in the areas responsible for experiencing awareness of pain (primarily anterior cingulate cortex). The more these areas were activated by meditation, the more was the pain relief felt.

The other mechanism by which meditation leads to a lesser feeling of pain is by producing endorphins, which are natural pain relievers in the body. Meditation has also been shown to decrease the levels of stress hormones (e.g. cortisol and adrenaline), which otherwise increase anxiety during stressful stimuli like pain. Further, meditation also leads to increase in hormones like melatonin and DHEA, which help boost the immune system and promote a sense of calmness even during pain.

Conclusively, there is a definite, objective evidence of meditation leading to reduction in pain perception, and reducing the emotional impact of pain thus making it easier to bear. Now that gives you enough reason to tread the meditative path. And, just in case it inspires you to walk the road, Shri Ashutosh Maharaj Ji, the Founder and Head of Divya Jyoti Jagrati Santhan, and the Perfect Master of the present times, is disseminating the eternal technique of true meditation in the form of 'Brahm Gyan'. Make best use of the opportunity and reap innumerable benefits by practicing the 'Brahm Gyan' meditation technique!
