IMPORTANCE OF YOGA AND MEDITATION

By

The food we take is to be digested and the undigested food if any shall come out as excreta from our body after 24 hours, otherwise we fell sick.

The excess water we drink shall come out within 4 hours, otherwise, we fell sick.

The air we breathe in shall come out within one minute, otherwise, we fell sick.

As such, Anger, Hatred, Jealous, etc., are within us years together. What will happen if they dwell in our bodies like that?  We become sick permanently.

That is why our great saints say that we the fools feel that we are living daily....in fact, we are dying to some extent day by day. If our age increases what we presume....  is our life span increases or decreases?

We have to necessarily accept the bitter fact that we are dying daily to some more extent from these negative energies.

Anger, stress, hatred, laziness, etc, which are within us and not leaving us are making our lives deadly.


The only way to give Prana Sakthi( Vital energy) to our body is Yoga and Meditation. Yoga builds strength, awareness and harmony in both the mind and body.  Meditation is a way to decrease stress and anxiety. It also enhances self-awareness, generates kindness and creates a more positive outlook on life. That is why the Indian Sages have adopted this method and taught it to their disciples who lived long happily without any diseases.

So do  Yoga and Meditation daily under the guidance of a capable master to lead a happy and healthy life.

FOOD CONSUMPTION

By
Image
Food has major role in human existence. It influences not just our physical health, but also our consciousness. There is a saying "You are what you eat". So we must chose  the food which can cure both physical and mental ailments and also  help us in making spiritual advancement in our lives. Lord Srikrishna in Bhagavat Githa, said that food determines the gunas (satvic, rajasic and thamasic) of  human beings in Chapter 17 verses 8 to 10. Here is the bri ef description about them: Satvic foods are those that lead to clarity of mind and physical health. These foods are very dear to those of goodness. They promote longevity, virtues, health, strength, happiness, joy etc., Fruits, vegetables, milk, milk products, rice, wheat, honey, juices etc., come under this category. Rajasic foods are those that have a stimulating effect on the mind and body. Those foods lead to aggressiveness and irritability. They are very bitter, sour, salty, hot, pungent ...

Realisation of the Truth or God.

By
In the Vedic and Upanishadic tradition, Saksatkara, the direct realisation of Truth or God, is not described as an external vision but as an inner awakening of one's true Self (Atman) — a state in which the seeker directly experiences Reality without doubt. Saksatkara comes through inner purification, meditation and grace, not mere study. According to Vedic wisdom, saksatkara is direct experience, not belief.  It is a permanent inner transformation, not a passing vision, and it brings deep peace, fearlessness, detachment, and universal love. In other words, it is experiencing your true Self as one with Brahman, not imagination, not emotion, but clear inner seeing.  Brihadaranyaka Upanishad teaches that Brahman cannot be limited.  Anything we can see, think, or describe is limited. But Brahman is infinite and beyond all qualities.  So, the sages say 'not the body, not the mind, not the senses and not even thoughts. "Neti, Neti" removes all wrong identifications. ...

What is Gratitude in human values?

By
Gratitude, thankfulness, or gratefulness is a feeling of appreciation (or similar positive response) by a recipient of another's kindness.  We express gratitude when someone shows kindness, provides help, gives a gift, or offers encouragement. Expressing thanks is also appropriate for both big and small gestures, as it strengthens relationships and creates positive feelings.  It is beneficial to show gratitude whenever you genuinely feel it, as this makes interactions more meaningful and strengthens your connection with others. In spirituality, gratitude shifts towards a deeper recognition of life's interconnectedness, such as meditating on the gift of breath, the universe's order, or inner peace as expressions of divine presence. Practices include affirmations such as "I am grateful for this moment" during breathwork or reflecting on personal growth as unseen blessings, aligning with present-moment awareness from traditions like Hindu philosophy. This form trans...

Doing Meditation either for Spiritual progress or for Peace or for Health is most beneficial

By
Those who MEDITATE regularly and do a little bit of Yoga and those who eat SAATTVIC food (food that causes Serene Behaviour) like Vegetarian or Vegan diet, will need less sleep, not more than 6 hours a day! We don’t make a scientific claim here, but based on the widely available information to the public on internet, we just put forward our observation based on experience. There is a lot to be known about meditation for spiritual progress. There are many articles written on ViprasCraft about Philosophy and Spirituality.

Control of Mind through Spirituality.

By
      By B.E.Sampath Kumar.                          The concept of  Mind is a complex and multifaceted one that has been debated and explored by Philosophers, Neuroscientists, psychologists, and many other thinkers across various disciplines.  According to the Philosophical perspective, it is a non-physical entity that enables consciousness, thought, and intentionality.  It  is the seat of subjective  experience, perception and awareness. From a Neuroscience perspective,  the Mind is the collection of cognitive functions that arise from the brain's neural activity. It results from complex interactions between neurons, neurotransmitters, and brain regions, enabling thoughts, emotions, memory, perception, and consciousness.  According to the Psychological perspective, the Mind is a dynamic system that processes information perceives, learns, remembers, and adapts. ...

Homeopathy medicines - A Guide for the Old, Poor and the Needy people

By
The last stage in human life is Old age. At this stage old people will encounter negligence from others including their families in some worst cases. Not only this, they will develop self negligence. Due to Competitiveness, tension due to pressure of work, spending leisure time on viewing TV, Children's education etc., youth also neglects them. Though the youth have love and affection towards them , they are not spending sufficient time as expected  by the old people due to the  above reasons. Youth working in foreign countries is also one of the reasons. As a  result, old  people  are getting mental imbalance. They feel  that their vast experience in dealing things and  their sacrifices  for the family have no recognition by their kith and kin.Neglected presence of the old  people in taking decisions in important family matters will lead them to distress and self non-attention over the diseases from which they suffer.

Interdependence is a higher value than Independence

By
What a great sentence it is! You will find this sentence, " Interdependence is a higher value than Independence ", in the Stephen R Covey's book, " The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People ". This book is one of those best books you could buy and add to your library. And the Preface itself consists of this great line in the beginning. To summarize the meaning of this line we can say that the whole world would be happy with peace and good human relations spread all over, if every leader from every country understands these principles. Of course these are not the principles founded by Mr. Stephen R Covey but are those which were discovered by him during his research on the past 200 years of the Success literature as a part of his doctoral program. "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People" is undoubtedly the best guide for any individual or a manager to perform effectively restoring that Character ethic which was eventually lost in the recent ye...

First time is always the thrust time for any activity that we do. But to be best at the first time itself, is a difficult thing without any guidance from the experienced people. Here we mean the experience of traveling abroad from India . So this Indian Checklist of items for the First Foreign trip will at least help the newbies i.e., the Indian travelers , to any foreign country. Our emphasis in this article will be mainly on those items which are important to us but often we neglect them when we are at our home. There will be some issues when we are out of our country which will cause the troubles to us. The examples of some of those issues are: Availability of a Particular item: This is the biggest problem.

In a foreign country we may always find something in many shops or stores, whic...

One good New Year Resolution is to plan for reading a number of books, get inspired and inspire others

By
We celebrate the New Year on 1st January bidding farewell to the year ending on 31 December, almost as a ritual every year, but very few of us actually make some time to think and look at the year just passed by. While we needn't worry about our past as we can't make changes to it at any cost, we do need to have some sort of introspection and must not lose the sight of our achievements and drawbacks related to those goals that were met and of those that eluded us. We are all human and are not the perfect beings, but striving for continuous improvement isn't a bad thing either. What we need to really check about ourselves is whether we have made our presence felt to this world, or not!

WHO WILL CRY WHEN WE DIE?

By
Image
It is natural that if a person dies in a family, all the blood relations and other members will cry for the beautiful, meaningful and colorful memories the deceased has to make them witnessed and enjoyed in their life and the lessons and life-changing values they learnt  from him. The people very close feel great pain for the loss of their well-wisher or friend..  But there may be some members also in the family of the deceased, who cry more than the blood relations, for the sake of Society. Since times immemorial we have been hearing the story of Lord Rama from Ramayana, an Indian Epic.  He was loved by all, and even by His enemies.  He was the embodiment of a perfect human being.  He was given the title of " Maryada Purushothama " considering him as a Supreme being for His unbroken principles as an ideal son, a wise brother, a caring husband, a good friend, the best disciple, etc., but most importantly a notable and admiring king in the clan of ...
