This is my first blog after a while and i want to talk briefly about how things are, how my perspective is etc..
change is always difficult to handle and the magnitude of change in my case has been huge..new technology, new work environment, new place and new people...sometimes, thoughts prod me on whether it was necessary and whether it was in the right direction, i feel a little nervous and wonder whether i'm in the right direction...change makes people nervous and the key to not feel nervous is to accept it and be ready to take mis steps, make wrong calculations and then be able to correct the course of action...so, i try to chant sairam mantra and then tell it that it is ok to be nervous and that time will help us determine the correct course and well if it is not the correct course then we will change it...what the heck...
I also attended a talk called..how to tame your monkey mind...it made me feel happy to realize that it is not just my mind that is a monkey and that everyone on this planet have similar problems that i face...it was interesting to see that you can train your mind and make it bend...i loved the thought of giving pain to my mind and make it squeal begging me for mercy and asking me to forgive it for the numerous troubles it has caused to me...one thing i realized is that, YOUR THOUGHTS make a big difference and unless you can conquer them, you have not attained true realization...in my case, my thoughts do trouble me and meditation/passive observing of thoughts is the SOLUTION...Also, believing in the goodness of the UNIVERSE and my sadguru are the key to not lose hope and optimism....
Omsairam!
