Music, Me N My Guitar...

Playing the music you love to hear is much more soulful and peaceful than just listening to it. And being able to play it is a satisfaction in oneself! I feel that every person should learn to play atleast one musical instrument in their life. You will never regret it, I can assure you that much. Music is one thing that can make you feel any kind of feeling just by stening to it and doing nothing.

And one thing I want to tell you people that INDIAN CLASSICAL is the best music And there is no comparison of it. I have seen children learning music or some musical instrument just because they are forced by their parents, but music is to be felt and not to be learnt, one should enjoy music from every part of his/her body. Have you ever seen to the facial expressions of the instrument players? If possible see to any video in which a player is playing how he/she feels the music he/she is playing from every part of the body.


A musical instrument can be a best friend of a person’s life. It is there with you in every situation you are in.

This was just a bit which I wanted to share, it just came into my mind when I was playing my guitar.

And Lastly.........My pic in my hostel room clicked by my friend when I was playing some guitar solo

I hope you all are liking my posts.

Radiate Happiness

My GURUJI "His Holiness Sri Sri Ravishankar Ji" has immense knowledge, he is an ocean of knowledge,

So here is one of those for you..

Sri Sri: Being individually happy is not enough. Our wish should be that whomsoever we meet becomes happy and radiates happiness. A frustrated man will create frustration; a jealous person will create jealousy and so on.


You can turn every situation into your advantage. Have you ever thought of this? There is a story in the Puranas of how a saint turned an arrow, which was going to hurt someone, into a garland.


If somebody is shooting an arrow at you, insulting you, realize that they are doing it because they are miserable. Once you are blossomed from within, you can take any insult and turn it into your advantage.

Realize that they are simply pouring out their stress, tension and anxiety. When people shout or burst out at you, you can only feel good that all that was building up inside them is coming out. I am not saying that we should encourage this tendency or justify it.


But when it happens, do not regret it.

What do we normally do? We go on regretting and with regret we commit the same mistake again. Even when someone commits a mistake, he or she is not the culprit; the stress inside is causing him or her to make that mistake. Once we get rid of the stress inside us, there is no culprit; there is no one to be forgiven.
Then we begin to realize that the whole thing is just a game in which there are no winners or losers. It's just a play!


Jai Gurudev.

Lack of Awarness

This is one thing I have been observing in many people since past few months "Lack of Awarness". Just check all your actions throughout the day.
For example: We always say that we are heading towards global warming, but how many of us care to become a bit more concerned on saving the electricity, saving water and other natural resources. Once I was sitting in my mess eating food and one of the tap was leaking I observed that leaking tap for almost 10 min and around 30 people passed that tap and no one bothered to close the tap properly, enevtually i got up and closed that ta properly.
Another thing what we do is in summers switching our AC's before sleeping so that the room gets cooled, and sometimes we don't even bother toclose the lights and fans of the room after we leave. Another thing I saw was many a times the light of my hostel lobby are open during the day and not even a single person is bothered to switch off them, again a lack of awarness.
Next is eating Non veg food, how man of us really eat because we love that food, hardly a few. We give silly reasons like its good for health, full of protiens and  these type of other reasons. We should be aware that this is also a very big cause of GLOBAL WARMING eating non-veg food. Majority of the people who eat non-veg food can't even make out that they are eating chicken or mutton and what piece of the dead animal they are eating, at the same time how much amount of stress and other toxins they are taking in hile eatin that non-veg food. As when an animal is slaughtered it undergoes so much stress and the same toxins are released which are secreted i us when we are stressed.
WE NEED TO BE A  BIT MORE AWARE OF WHAT WE ARE DOING.

And the best thing to be stress free and happy with 100% awareness is to do "THE ART OF LIVING" course.
Its is the best course to bring out the best in you with totally fun filled activities and processes.

Rohit

Everthing you do just do it for him.......

Hello people,
I hope you all enjoyinn my posts....
Please do comment on the posts after reading....

So,

Once there was this old musician who used to sing the best in the whole of an emperor's territory. He used to sing for the emperor for him entertainment, whenever the king wanted to hear something he used to call this musician and the musician used to sing for all the members of the royal family.
Once the king came to know that the master of this musician sing far better than the musician, so he asked him that if u sing so well and by ur singing you can make clouds rain and winds blow, than your master will be much powerful than you. The musician replied yes that true but my master does'nt sings for anyone he will sing whenever he feels like.
The king told that musician to take him to his master, and they both went and sat in front of the cave in which the naster of that musician lived, they both waited for 2 days for the master to come out and finally the master came out and meet the king. The king said that i want to hear you sing. The master said fine but I will not sing for you because I only sing for the divine. Then he started singing, after completing the king was so impressed he asked the master that would you come to my palace and sing for him and his family. The master replied no, saying that i only sing for the divine.

So what is the knowledge or learning behind this ??

It is that whatever you do just do it for the divine or in the name of the god, and then see how that particular thing flourishes. If you do any work in the name of the divine it will never be a waste and you will master it like anything.
So, next time whenever you do something just close your eyes and say in your heart that this is for you my lord, and see the magic that follows.

A Must Read...Follow Your Dream

There were once 2 brothers who lived on the 80th level. On coming home one day, they realized to their dismay that the lifts were not working and that they have to climb the stairs home.




After struggling to the 20th level, panting and tired, they decided to abandon their bags and come back for them the next day. They left their bags then and climbed on. When they have struggled to the 40th level, the younger brother started to grumble and both of them began to quarrel. They continued to climb the flights of steps, quarreling all the way to the 60th floor.



They then realized that they have only 20 levels more to climb and decided to stop quarreling and continue climbing in peace. They silently climbed on and reached their home at long last. Each stood calmly before the door and waited for the other to open the door. And they realized that the key was in their bags which was left on the 20th floor.

This story is reflecting on our life…many of us live under the expectations of our parents, teachers and friends when young. We seldom get to do the things that we really like and love and are under so much pressure and stress so that by the age of 20, we get tired and decided to dump this load.



Being free of the stress and pressure, we work enthusiastically and dream ambitious wishes. But by the time we reach 40 years old, we start to lose our vision and dreams. We began to feel unsatisfied and start to complain and criticize. We live life as a misery as we are never satisfied.



Reaching 60, we realize that we have little left for complaining anymore, and we began to walk the final episode in peace and calmness.

We think that there is nothing left to disappoint us, only to realize that we could not rest in peace because we have an unfulfilled dream …… a dream we abandoned 60 years ago.



So what is your dream?



Follow your dreams, so that you will not live with regrets.

One Early morning a mother went to her sleeping son and woke him up.

MOM : "Wake up, son. It's time to go to school."

SON : "But why, Mama? I don't want to go to school."

MOM : "Give me two reasons why you don't want to go to school."

SON : "One, all the chilldren hate me. Two, all the teachers hate me."

MOM : "Oh! that's not a reason. Come on, you have to go to school."

Go to your house's roof an jump rather smoke....

Why you people who smoke want to have a slow death....anyways you are going to die then why not rather go to your house's roof and jump from there.


A person who smokes..
1. Has the risk of dying from lung cancer 23 times more in men and 13 times more in women as compared to non-smokers.
2. This Tobacco causes upto 90% of lung cancer cases and is the major risk factor for heart attack and stroke.
What about your family or others in front of whom you smoke....every thought about this...???
Passive smoking is also very dangerous...
Exposure to tobacco smoke in homes and public areas kill thousands of children, foetuses infants and adults.
Because of you smokers, non-smokers exposed to second-hand smoke i.e. passive smoke at public places or homes develop a high risk of getting lung cancer by 20% to 30% and heart disease by 25% to 30%.

" Tobacco is the only product consumed that harms every person exposed to it and kills half of its regular users."

Smokers live an average of 15 years less than non-smokers.
You will be surprised to know that persently in our world 10% of the current world population will eventually succumb to tobacco related diesease, as approximately 650 million smokers are alive in this world today.

In india now its a serious offence to smoke in public areas and anyone can stop a smoker from smoking in public without any hesitation.

So why not have a tobacco free healthy world.

Very Sad.....In the name of Research....

IN SILENCE THEY SUFFER...
IN LONELINESS THEY DIE..
Stop cruelity to animals....
they breath as we do,
they bleed as we do,
they cry as we do,
they suffer pain as we do,
then why animals are used for experiments,
there hair are different from us, it is scientifically proven that their system is different than ours then why do the scientist perform experiments on them to check whether it will work on humans or not.
All these animal testing methods are faulty,
then why do we need them.
When we have cell based tissue models. So why do we still BLIND RABBITS.
When we have mannequins then why do we BASH BABOONS......
We cant simply explain what we are doing to them, if we could what would we say.......think about it people.....

A life in a METAL cage is no life.

When is comes to pain, hunger, wanting to live basically we all are the same.


Just see videos from PETA........

Become Veggie Lovers

This is the time when 10 billion animals suffer in U.S. and world wide factory farms and salughter houses every year, when heart and other dreadious disease is the leading cause of death among non-vegetariansAnd you will be surprised to know that animal agriculture is the single largest source of soil and water pollution.Every1 of you who goes vegan not only saves the lives of millions of animals in his/her lifetime, but also enhances his/her human health and makes our very own mother nature more greener and fresher.AND IT IS SCIENTIFICALLY PROVED THAT A VEGAN PERSON IS MORE HEALTHIER AND LIVES 10 YEARS MORE THAN A NON VEGAN PERSON.......

10 Ways To Build A Better You

CULTIVATE THE HABIT OF READING
Make a habit of reading.Books in many ways have,what writer describes it,a pharmaceutical effect on people.They help us to forget the injustice of men and things,quiet our cares and our emotions, and lay our setbacks asleep.
DISCIPLINE YOURSELF
It is so easy to drift.You will never be able to manage time if you fail to mak a routine and discipline yourself to follow it. Check yourself so that others will not have to check you.
ORGANISE YOURSELF
Try and organise your life as much as possible. Keep a handy schedule and stick to it. Keep things where they should be. Don't keep work pending. Get it done as soon as you can. Why not stop right now and plan out a few things for the next few days,weeks,years.....
BE GENUINE
The moment you feel you have to live up to a certain standard set by others, you will be putting unecessary pressure upon urself. Avoid trying to follow the crowd. Consciously and constantly try to improve urself, without having to copy others. Just be real.
TAKE CARE OF YOUR HEALTH
Maintain your health and keep urself fit.
FORM RELATIONSHIPS WITH CARE
Your friends have the power to influence you for either good or bad in many ways, they can either make you or break you. There are a lot of good people around, mix with folks who encourage you in good things, with whom you or at ease and feel at your best.
HELP OTHERS, BE HAPPY
There will be times in your life when you will have to face the choice of furthering your interests at the expense of someone else's. It is important to realise that you don't need to put out another man's light in order to let your name shine
EFFORT+PATIENCE=ACHIEVEMENT
Achievements are hard to come by you have got to make the effort and continue making it. I do know of dozens of examples of people toiling hard and turning their lives around.
LOVE OF MONEY=ROOT OF ALL EVIL
The BIBLE says that maney is the root of all evils. John Wesley puts it very succincly,"Earn all you can, save all you can and give all you can."
START SMALL, BUILD BIG
It is always wise to start many projects in a small way. Start small and keep it simple. Gradually build up. Start small and build bigg.....
