Aloneness is not loneliness

 How do we differentiate between these two categories? Most of the time we feel that we are lonely because of being alone. But being alone is a very meaningful process as against being lonely.

Being lonely is a process wherein one feels the absence of people and a low feeling. Whereas being alone allows you to be by yourself. Do your own things and feel satisfied with life in general.

Aloneness is what everybody is feeling. Don’t feel sad or depressed if you are alone it allows you to explore and discover new meanings and new processes in life.

Aloneness gives you a chance to go in the woods ad explore new paths of yourself.

India has been the symbol of inner journey and loneliness provided you the time and space to go on that journey.

There is a difference between the East and the West and people who are in the East are more inclined towards self-reflection, self-examination, and willing to go on a journey of themselves.

Now is the only time you have for yourself so it’s best that you utilize it gracefully and meaningfully. You are constantly living in the here and now so it is best that you utilize your time fruitfully.

We try to explore spaces out there but little do we realize that the real engagement is in here within your heart and soul.

The silence will remain the same although you wish to externally speak.

You are destroying his mood and his very being if you try to force him into something that he does not believe in.

When aliveness arrives within you are like to share and communicate with others.

Why do we Produce children? When sometimes they are assets and sometimes are liabilities.

  Whenever you get married the first thought that comes to your mind is when you will have children. Having children becomes such an important dream for the parents, the in-laws, and friends around you. People become very curious, noisy, and intruding in this very important phase of one’s life. So having children becomes almost a compulsion at each stage in life. Even if one is not prepared one gets into the rat race of having children. There are very few couples or individuals who make a conscious decision to not having children because they are not prepared for it. Once you have children they become an immense source of joy, fulfillment, and nurturing for the parents. If I were to take my example I had two children in a row and they were the most burdensome and I rarely enjoyed my motherhood until they were five. They were symbols to show off and gratitude towards in-laws. Only once they grew up to be adults could I engage with them on a one-to-one basis. My Husband...

Don’t rely on Saint and Saige’s for your Solution.

  We often rely on saints, sages and the arrived people for all our solutions. However, we need to ask ourselves whether they are the actual source of all our problems. Actually, if we look inward we can realize that most of the solutions lie within us and I don’t need to look out for any solutions. It’s only the belief in one self that you realize that all the solutions lie within me. It’s all about the faith and conviction that I have in myself to generate solutions in life. If I look at the problem, with a great deal of tension and negativity I will only look for problems outside me. If I have the courage and the faith in myself then I will not look outside of me. You become a prisoner of your own habits if you are unable to get out of it. Only if you are in tune with nature and the real things happening around will you be able to find real solutions. In the name of being god-fearing, we are unable to drop all the shackers and inhabitations we carry towards god and t...

So in living life it is important to look at yourself into the mirror and create learnings. Mirror is an object which creates lots of learnings for the self Is there a god which helps you look at real picture on there is no god. When you look into the mirror you discover/recreate. You feel good with yourself or you feel nauseous. Both the realities are true. At times you feel good and on high and at times you may fee horrible. Keep the mirror for a learning of whether you are in the good space or the bad space. At times you may feel very big and at times very small both realities are real. The mirror reflects only what you are it does not pass a judgement on whether you are good or bad that judgement is passed on by the self. If we stumble and fumble we are unable to see ourselves with clarity. Author:-Dr. Nayana Shah (Ph....
