Today every body is running to temples, holy places, holiday places, and lot of other places to search for peace and mental health.
They may be thinking that peace are kept there, so that they can take it and come back.
But they don't know where the peace is kept
Like a Kasthoori Mrug ( Mrug means - Deer) who keeps the Kasthoori in his Nabhi and searching for the smell without knowing the place it kept, today we are searching for God, peace and happiness.
What is peace what is happiness and what is God
To know this, you have to understand your body first.
Our body is a physical structure with organs and functions.
Because of the organs are functioning properly, we are living.
How the organs are functioning ? Because of 2 things.
1. Air and 2 Fire
Air means breathing. Fire means heat of the body.
Once the both are not available, we call the body is dead.
So, can you see the Air and Fire ? No. but we can feel it. and It is called God
That means , God is inside each of you and you are not bothering to feel it, but running pillar to post to find out him
Our body is consisted of Intelligence, mind, emotions and thoughts.
These are available only when we are awake. But during sleeping time, these are not available except the Intellect. Still we are alive. This power is called LIFE and this is God.
We should try to mingle and capture more and more to this intellect, which is silence, and free from all thoughts, emotions.
If you have a problem , think who is creating the problem ?
Only your Mind. so, Mind is the problem. detach from mind and come to the silence, then you will find peace.
Mind is full of emotions , calculations, imaginations and thoughts. If you allow mind to attach Intellect, you will find all sort of problems, and sorrow.
Aware that silence and intellect is beyond the mind.
To bring this into your life, meditation is essential. Through meditation only, you can detach mind from intellect.
Meditation is nothing but just observing your breath . Whenever you get time, observe the breath.
Assume our mind and all attachments of mind like emotions, thoughts, imaginations , calculations are only just experiences, and you should not allow your intellect to fall and lock into the experiences. Be an observer and see the experiences coming and passing away instead of feeling and involving in it.
Like a Traffic Police man observes the traffic from the Traffic Island and controls it.
If he becomes an experiencer, he can not observe the traffic and he will be a part of the traffic. Ane he loss his value.
More over, we should practice to live in present without carrying the past and expecting the future.
If you can recall the temple, there will be two bars separating the frontage of God's idol
One side for Gents and the other side for Ladies.
Assume Gents side is the PAST and Ladies side is Future.
If you separate past and future like this, then only you can enjoy the present which is the flow of God's grace.
