Truth is at the tip of your nose
There is a problem that our senses are set somewhere outside. We do not feel what is going on within. We hear loud noise all the time but we do not try to listen to the voice from within.
We often forget that we can get answers easily by just focusing a little on ourselves but being set somewhere outside, we do not get to the solutions soon or sometimes we search for readymade solutions.
Readymade solutions have very small expiry date and soon we find ourselves standing at the same position whe...
It’s like giving a medication
We all have the right to our opinions but we do not have the right to incorrect facts. Sometimes, we jump to conclusions very fast and do not get to the right facts.
This happens mostly when we criticize someone or something that happens in front of us. Criticism is like giving medication and it is a serious thing to prescribe to others.
How can we just treat someone without knowing the actual disorder?
We should take full time to analyze and to understand the situation before saying anything ab...

We have lot of problems. We have problems in business as well as in our personal life. We discuss them with colleagues, managers and staff or we discuss them with friends and family members.

The good part is that we try to solve our problems by discussing them with other people and by having their opinion in...

We want more to experience
The whole awareness of life is only through our senses. Everything that we know has entered us by seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting or touching. This is the only way we know the world and this is the only way we know ourselves.
If we shut down all of our five senses, we will have no experience of life, world, and ourselves. This is what happens when we go to sleep. It does not mean that the senses die when we fall asleep. The body is alive, the mind is on, everything is its place but all of t...

Be ignorant to some extent
If everything worth knowing has been known, that knowing cannot be held in the body. If the body has to be held, one has to be ignorant to some extent.
When we try to know and learn every other thing that comes to our reach, our perception level increases and sometimes it reaches to a point where we achieve the idea of almost everything. In such condition, it is difficult to get hold on to our body and our senses.
It is always important to be decisive during the process of getting the knowledge...

A feeling of oneness
Problems that we have in our imagination or in our real life are caused somehow by the individuality that we feel. This individuality urges us to be authoritative enough to decide anything for ourselves as well as for those around us.
There is no harm in putting our point of view in front of others but it might be harmful to expect that others will not argue on that and they will simply agree on what you said.
We get messed up by this individuality thing especially when we elevate our expectati...
