The summary post

Life is full of miracles and possibilities. From the little atoms to the cosmos, there is so much happening in each moment. Our knowledge about the universe may not even be compared to the drop in the ocean. Yet, we feel so sure of our lives, our desires, ambitions, and motivations. We keep running after them with a lot of certainty. The problem is not being ignorant, rather the problem is the arrogance of the ignorance. We are trapped inside the well and rather than making efforts to come out of the same, we stay happy inside the well. A pigeon chased by a cat closes its eyes rather than making efforts to escape. Similarly, we have surrendered to our laziness and ignorance rather than making efforts to come out of the well of ignorance. A. Testing the waters of the well Probably the first step is to examine human behavior. We live in a society and keep meeting people of different types. It is like a laboratory to us and if we are a little aware, we can examine different dimensions of ...

वर्तमान क्षण में जीने का आनंद

 आम तौर पर, हम अपने कुछ आशीर्वादों के बारे में जानते हैं, जबकि अधिकांश आशीर्वादों से अनजान होते हैं। हमारे शरीर के विभिन्न अंग हमें इस दुनिया में काम करने के लिए पूर्ण समन्वय के साथ काम करते हैं। हम आम तौर पर इस आशीर्वाद के प्रति अपनी आंखें बंद कर लेते हैं और अपने शरीर को तब तक हल्के में लेते हैं जब तक हमें कोई बीमारी नहीं हो जाती और दर्द महसूस नहीं होता। दर्द हमें "मूक आशीर्वाद" की याद दिलाता है। इसी तरह, हर किसी को सांस लेने के लिए पर्याप्त हवा मिलती है। आम तौर पर, हम इस आशीर्वाद से तब तक अनजान रहते हैं जब तक कि हवा प्रदूषित न हो जाए और हमें सांस लेने में कठिनाई न हो, या हम किसी ऊंचाई पर चले जाएं और हवा का दबाव कम न हो जाए जिससे हमारे लिए सांस लेना मुश्किल हो जाए। हम सभी के पास पीने के लिए पर्याप्त पानी है और हम पानी को हल्के में लेते हैं। हालाँकि, धीरे-धीरे बोतलों में पानी आना शुरू हो गया है और हम धीरे-धीरे अपने जीवन में आशीर्वाद के बारे में थोड़ा अधिक जागरूक हो गए हैं। हम आम तौर पर अच्छे रिश्तों के आशीर्वाद से अनजान हैं: एक दोस्त जिसके साथ हम अपने मन में आने वाली हर बात स...

Generally, we are aware of some of our blessings, while unaware of most of the blessings. Different organs of our body work in perfect coordination to make us work in this world. We generally close our eyes to this blessing and take our body for granted till the time we develop some disease and feel the pain. Pain reminds us of the "silent blessing". Similarly, everybody has enough air to breathe. Generally, we remain unaware of this blessing until the air gets polluted and we find it difficult to breathe, or we go to some high altitude and air pressure is reduced making it difficult for us to breathe. All of us have enough water to drink and we take water for granted. Though, off-late water has started coming in bottles and we have slowly become slightly more aware of the blessing in our life.
