PEACE OF MIND

 SECRET OF PEACE....  NANGANALLUR  J K SIVAN 

Is there anyone who does not want  peace of mind?  It is what everyone wants but no body gets,  why?   Because it cannot be purchased and is not available anywhere outside  either  freely or for sale.   It is not at all to be searched outside because it is  always there within you. 

Peace can be easily had by constant search within.  Everything  that we do or think is meaningful only in the context of peace. So, peace is above everything else. 

 

To be peaceful, first we have to take care of our physical well-being. So it becomes necessary  to  invest one hour  atleast a day on the body and utilise so that  its benefit  can be enjoyed during the  remaining 23 hours. Select and eat only health-conscious foods.

To be peaceful, the best investment is SILENCE. The cluttered mind needs quiet  moments. Be wholly still and alone. The world will present itself to you for its unmasking. In ecstasy it will be at your feet.  Even if you have not been initiated into meditation, at least practice stillness, be alone, for sometime, everyday. BE STILL, AND BE AWARE THAT GOD RESIDES IN YOU.

To be peaceful does not mean being without  any work.. Work is a must, to keep the mind and body engaged. Work is the only solution and at best  salvation for self  improvement and progress. Keeping  engaged and busy alone  develops a man from idling. You all know an idle mind is devil's workshop.  Work can be in the  primary form of worship and love towards all.  That is why it is known as ''Work is worship".

To be peace one should not judge the others and follow the sacred principle FORGIVE AND FORGET. A  charitable mind  without any expectation is paradise.  Instead of expecting anything from  others, we should learn to expect from our own selves.  Rejoice the unpredictability of life and take it easily without any fear for Death and disease. What comes as inevitable and unavoidable, it has to be accepted.  How we conducted ourselves in the wake of  Corona, did we not adjust ourselves when it is inevitable to socially keep distant, lock down ourselves within four walls, cleaning our limbs and covering the face with a mask. It  still continues as well.  Prevention is better than cure.

To be peaceful we should never doubt or suspect.   Trust we place on others may kick back due to some betrayal by others, and there need be no grudge against it because  human mind works many ways in many people. Be prudent and place your trust on the dependable and reliable and keep off and  away from the rest.

Unpredictability is the hall mark of life in this world. Take it easy and adjust yourself as situation warrants.  Remaining peaceful will reward us  amply.  

Avoid unnecessary talk. Silence is golden.  The tongue can not express all that the heart feels. It cannot reveal all the feelings. True feelings are beyond words.  We present some sweets to a child, it does not say thank you, but the joy of the child consuming the sweet makes you immensely happy.  Doing something good without expecting a return or reward is  joyful and divine.  

Love  ALL  AND  LOVE ALWAYS.. Why unnecessarily we  celebrate  Mother's day, father's day, sister's day, brother's day chinnamma's day,  thanks giving  day.... etc... once a year.... Why restrict the abundant love to only a day... Realise the God you worship in everything and everyone and spread the message of love  and remain grateful for all you are blessed with in life.
