Negativity in our lives and the role we can play to bring it down!

To overcome the negative thoughts in our heads, we first need to understand that how they take birth in the first place. 

If we look closely we would find that people who are miserable in life are the ones who hold back to certain questions so dearly that they never even accept the answers to those questions.

They would simply keep hanging to those questions within their heads and would never want to arrive at a conclusion, it is as if they do not even want to come out of their state of misery.

We as a society and individual think that when someone comes to us with a question, we are entitled to answer it, but that is not the case most of the times. Most of the times, the person with the question simply wants you to acknowledge that he is in pain, that he has a question in his mind, simply doing this puts them at ease.

It makes them think that someone out there understands their state of mind and that they can be understood by other people too.

Condemning people is always easy but understanding their plight and their internal struggles is hard

Blaming someone is always easy, but trying to figure out the reasons behind their actions is really hard

Similarly, stereotyping someone is easy, but helping them break the barriers with full support from us is hard.

I believe that it is our duty to help people around us, everyone is going through a different hardship, everyone has their own demons to defeat, and the least we can do is listen to them, so that they can simply know that they are not alone.

In a world where everyone is screaming, it becomes even more difficult to be heard, it becomes even more difficult to be found, so lets stand up and make sure that we would lend our ears to a broken soul and would never try to judge a person without knowing the reasons behind his/her actions.

Lets try to cut down the negativity in the world by simply listening to each other.

Live Laugh Love💓

Do you see what I see?

Do you see what I see? Definitely not! Even if we all look at the SAME thing, at the SAME moment, we cannot see the SAME thing. If we remove the scientific angle from the explanation and only try to understand the philosophical or experiential angle, we would know that it is impossible for two people to look at things in the precisely the same way. How we experience things, places and people around us depends on our past experiences, our mental status and a lot other internal things. Though we can try to relate with others around us in a similar settings, we never know what they must be feeling exactly, sometimes they themselves don't know. Having difference of opinion is completely normal, very rarely it will be the case that two individuals can completely agree on something, and we should understand and respect that without any ego or negative perception. We all have a different life philosophy, different goals, different learnings, We all cross paths with each other for a short ...

Root cause of Depression and Anxiety in life.

Someone asked Sri Sri Ravishankar (Gurudev) that - What to do when everything around us starts to feel like a dream and superficial? This is what Gurudev answered with- When everything starts to appear superficial and dreamy, realize that you are waking up to the universe. When we are really woken up, everything do appears to be a long dream, and that is the true reality. When we all accept that everything around us is momentary and transactional we will wake up to a new paradigm of wisdom in life. The life full of happiness and contentment. The life with a bigger perspective. When the life has no set goals, it feels empty and meaningless, and gives way to depression and anxiety. But when you have bigger goals in life like, working to make this world and environment better than before, so that the planet is still healthy and livable when the next generation arrives, it will give you a sense of purpose and meaning in life. The lack of direction and purpose in life is the root cause of d...

Why I started writing this blog?

Ever since childhood I have been told by my parents and grandparents that whatever you do in life, just make sure that you never hurt someone or never succeed at the cost of others happiness. This thought has been the basis of my entire life. At the very core I have always tried to be a good man, someone who can be looked upon, someone who is a problem solver and not creator in others lives.  Then came a phase in my life when I started questioning everything around me, every person who was a part of my life seemed like a negative influence, every talk that I got involved in only led me down the path of spiraling negativity and I lost control of my own thoughts. It was the time when I had the deepest realizations, most of them eventually never made sense after a while but some of them had a life changing impact on my thought process and personality. I realized how people can be perceived just opposite of what they stand for, how our mind plays trick and fills the gap with negative t...
