I Love you- Do I?

The three most commonly used words, maybe in close competition with I Hate you, one generally follows the other, so we can't be very sure. but heck, to begin with how many of us understand what Love is? As a famous Calvin comic strip goes, is it just evolution kicking in to make sure that our species continue?  Or is it something, which is above the relationship of give and take? What is it? Well, as usual too many questions and just one person to turn too. Asking the Guru himself. In the words of Yogi Ashwini ji - "In a human being, the anahad chakra, located at the center of the chest cavity, governs the need for love. There are very few, who with yogic practices like Sanatan Kriya or with karmas of previous lives are able to form connections at the level of anahad. The closest example of a connection made at this level would be the unconditional love of a mother towards her baby. Most adult relationships are limited to connections of the lower...

Why are our thoughts more negative than positive?

Question- Why are our thoughts more negative than positive?  Yogiji- That is because you are selfish. Selfishness breeds negativity. But if you are not selfish, you will not be in this world. A shooter training for Olympics had come to me few years back. I told him that he should go for the competition with a detached mind. Not to win a medal, but to give in his best without thinking about the result. His wife was listening to the conversation and demanded, 'What kind of an advise is this? This way he will never win. He needs to inculcate the killer instinct rather than becoming saintly.' So when this shooter went for the game, he won the medal once, but was never seen on the international arena ever again. If you attempt anything with high levels of detachment, you will be successful. But if you approach it with selfishness, you will fail even if you achieve it because you will not get satisfaction. The 'killer instinct' takes you nowhere. The ones who focus on just t...

Who made me think ?

Funny feeling it is when all of a sudden we would lose ourselves in the world of thoughts and find ourselves wasting precious joules of energy getting angry, jealous, happy, sad, sometimes naughty in our dream world. Ever wondered why we think, where we get these thoughts? Do all people get the same thoughts? Well, I decided to do some research and google my thoughts.  Remember a time when researching meant bugging your grand mum with not so comfortable questions. But technology has advanced and everything we need is just a click away. Cool isn’t it? Even though our original google is just a call away.  Anyway I was told that “ I was feeling lucky today” so I continued. Some links that I browsed said that these were because some neurons were fired while others directed me to some fancy brain maps ! All seemed to explain what happens when I think, but none why I think what I think. Not satisfied with the answers modern science was throwing at me, I decided t...

Its not Mumbo-jumbo!

The Revered Cow Yogi Ashwini Our coming generations have a strong western bias and firmly believe that the vedic culture is mumbo-jumbo, and that there is no science behind the worship and rituals. I would like to present certain facts about the efficacy and the global acceptability of the vedic principles to the younger generation. Recently, I came across the diary of Sir Cunningham at the national archives. He had sketched out a calf and a cow on the third page of the diary and discussed the scientific and logical benefits of preserving this animal. One can find references to the cow across cultures. The Egyptians worshipped her as Hathor, the goddess of fertility, while those from this side of the Indus called her the Kamdhenu and Nandi. The Greeks knew her as Lo and the Nordics as Audhumbla, the primeval cow who licked ice and brought mankind into existence. So, what is it about the cow that caused it to be revered across cultures and also caught the attention of the ...

Rasayans For Good Health

One thought that constantly plagues everybody’s mind is to lose weight. Every one wants that lean body, which has wrongly become synonymous with beauty and attraction. In the want to lose weight, people resort to extreme measures. Some of them start excluding things from their diet randomly without being aware of the serious complications and deficiencies that such an action entails and others turn to dieticians and fad diet programmes. A dietician looks at only physical aspect of the body and completely ignores the energy aspect. Unaware of the complex mechanism of the body and various dhatus that comprise it, he/she usually categorises the food into fats, proteins and carbohydrates and formulates a chart where the fat component is excluded from the diet. Majority of such diet control regimes have serious side effects that often translate into chronic ailments. The time-tested science of ayurveda details the seven dhatus that comprise our body and the importance of maintaining a bala...
