Pray Power

Prayer's an amazing thing.

It's like having a power. Power to rise and create something better.  Power to be happy, power to be abundant.

To end your money worries, to end the hunger in Africa and to even bring down the crime rates in your town.

Sound's unbelievable? Need proof? Ever heard of the Maharishi Effect?

A Maharishi (literally a brilliant great sage) held mass prayers and meditations in many towns in the US. Result- Miracles.

Crime rates plummeted down like it's under gravity. In truth, an equally great law of the Universe was working it's way through.

Other miracles happened and still happen today wherever and whenever people tune in to the power of the One. When they pray to God.

It's everywhere. Look around yourself. You will see someone everyday who is looking up at the skies and asking and wishing to the great power.

Look at social networks. Pray to God communities are an oasis to the soul in Facebook.

Prayers do create miracles. Try it. Don't be afraid to ask. You can be, have and do anything you want. Can't believe it yet?

    

Try Praying to God for some faith.

Photographic bliss

Nature is my favourite model. I click with my humble digicam, but for me, these are the most beautiful sights to behold.

There's a deep sense of yearning for me to be in nature. It's not special to me; the affinity towards nature is the most natural need of your mind, body and spirit. Your choice to that call is what shapes you.

I feel so deeply rooted to the earth that I find my true self there. I forget the past and future and truly exist in the moment. I feel truly connected with my soul. 

I feel Mother Nature enveloping me in love, care and protection. I want to simply lie down and look at the blue sky and white clouds and think of the wonderful things out there I want to experience.

I want to walk barefoot and feel, touch and smell the scent of life.

I want to melt in the colours of the flowers and feel the heartbeat of the trees.

I see a leaf with droplets of sparkling water. I take a dark sheet in a box and with a click, capture the light that emanates in that divine moment. Every time I see it, the divine light touches me.

I see reflections in the water and it pervades a calmness in my being.

Soon it's time to attend to the things in life that need attention. I am not sad but on the contrary, feel content. For I just had a taste of paradise.

Thanks my friend

One of the best ways to bid adieu to someone is to express gratitude.

I have a friend. His name is 2011. He is going away, for now. I don't think we will meet again, not in this realm. So diving deep the memory lane my friend 2011, here are a few things that you gave us which I have captured in the digicam.

 Thanks for the beautiful sunshine on 24 th March....

Thank you for all the colourful flowers all around the 4 seasons...

Thanks for showing me the light during the dark nights......

For all the beautiful trips with wonderful people....I thank you 2011

Loved the sun kissed afternoons with a cup of tea and lots of inner calm...

Thanks for a great festive time

Thank you so much for safe journeys

I am grateful that you kept me dry and warm during rainy days

Abundance has flowed freely into my life, thank you 2011

You helped me grow when I was pulling myself down, and I found inspiration in the most beautiful ways...

And 2011, my friend, thank you most for giving me the people whom I could love and be loved <3

The truth about gods and goddesses

It’s very important to realize the God that lives inside each of us. Actually like everything else in this universe, it is balance-  the god and goddess energy. In other words, each one of us is an amalgamation of masculine and feminine energy.

You take a huge leap in making your life better and closer to your true self once you grasp this concept. Vedic tradition calls this energy couple as Shiv and Shakti. In Oriental terms, it is better known as Yin and Yang. The idea is expressed in physics as well; call it the poles, the opposite energies or call it matter and anti-matter. The essence of the universe is to maintain a healthy balance where life flows and grows.

Shakti

Shakti is another name for the Kundalini. It is the seat of tremendous power at the base of the spine. Seated spirally at the Base Chakra, it rises like a serpent along the spine when given the call. Durga, Kali, Lakshmi or Saraswati- whatever you name her, however you see her; she is the Goddess aspect in you. She is the feminine energy that will bring you material success and power.

Shiv

Shiv is the masculine energy in us.  Kundalini Shakti rises and unites with her consort in the upper chakras. The crown chakra opens at last and you become the fountainhead of love, knowledge and creation.

Masculine and feminine energy are not the equivalent of male and female. On the contrary, both genders need these energies. Lack of any of these energies leads to problems in our material and spiritual dimensions.

If you look closely, this concept is everywhere in the Hindu pantheon. Lakshmi & Vishnu, Shiv & Parvati, Ram & Sita, Radha & Krishna – it scintillates with balance and flow of life.

It might take one ages to believe that the god and goddess is inside us, and makes us divine. But when does believe it, then the voice on the inside gets stronger. It sets him free. It gives him divine wings.

Love your hair and it loves you back

I love my hair. Truly, deeply, madly.

That’s why I follow a hair regime that’s simple and full of common sense.

The one simple truth about lovely hair is that you must not experiment with too many brands or types. Keep it basic –

• Use oil overnight or if not at least for 1-2 hours, preferably plain coconut oil.
• Use a nice shampoo that suits you hair to wash off the oil. Wash twice to keep it cleaner.

I can vouch that you will have the softest, smoothest hair that you would want to kiss again and again :)

One other amazing benefit of this practice is that it also helps in repairing split hair. It works for me and I have recommended to my friends. It has worked for them and they absolutely love their hair now.

My practice of keeping hair beautiful is sans too many fancy hair products. My mother and my lovely granny follow the same regimes. My granny who is past 80, still has ravishing dark hair!

So my mantra is to keep it simple, use oil and shampoo as it suits you. Keep your hair absolutely clean. That’s all it needs to grow and glow.

The mystery of the Third eye chakra

There is a point of immense power within us and it lies in a position in our forehead between our eyes. Release of this power is possible only through deep meditative states when one understands that godliness is being true to your human self and by seeing that in oneself.

The Third Eye looks to many as a figment of imagination that stems from the tales of Hindu deities. The truth is, however as good as fiction. The Third Eye is a real point situated near the pituitary gland in the forehead.

To understand it more deeply, we need to delve into the realms of energy and vibrations. Our subtle body , or which some call simply the energy or astral body, is a myriad of beautiful colours. It is tuned to nature and shares the rainbow's seven hues. The 6th point is the mystical Third Eye point and in perfect  state, it is awashed in the colour of indigo.

Yogis, ascetics and seekers, who have been through the process of opening of a third eye through meditation speak of a light between the eyebrows. It's like a pure light of a candle scintillating in the darkness. It gives a feeling of completeness and pleasure and joy so deep that one feels complete. The perception of the world outside is changed positively and the enlightened gets such insight that inspiration, ideas and success in come in scores. Everything was  always there, only the awareness was missing ; this was the great truth the one realizes. That one realizes his or her oneness with the Great One who lives in heaven. That one also realizes that the One lives with him, within him.

The third eye cannot be opened by force or mere will. It opens when the person is ready and prepared for it. And it should be so. Until a mind is calm enough, it cannot handle this tremendous power. It's like handling fire,  metaphorically.

So much would be our life better if we had your third eyes activated? The answer is, better than your comprehension right now. It is not difficult to seek your third eye light. It is your natural state of living, the goal towards your completeness. If you seek, you shall receive.
