Spreading Positivity

  || No Matter What || We have all heard many affirmative statements, especially from positive people who look at life very differently. No matter what, I will work hard and achieve what I have thought of. No matter how difficult the times I pass through are, no matter the financial difficulties I face, I will not beg for money from anyone. No matter if I experience tough times in my relations with others, I will try my best to mend and maintain those relationships. We've been hearing all these affirmative statements over the years, but how many of us really implement them in our lives? Now, the time has come to learn, feel, and take pride in hearing one of the historic statements by our Indian scientists: 'No matter what, we will try again to land on the moon.' And today, they did achieve it. Chandrayaan 3, a successful mission, happened at 6:04 pm Indian time on August 23rd. It's the first of its kind on the south pole of the moon. This is the best moment to embrace p...

  || Sharing is caring || Sharing and caring are two intimate words that complement each other so well. This universe exists, and we humans, along with other living creatures, also exist in this universe. However, if the actions of these two intimate words, sharing and caring, are not present, the universe cannot thrive beautifully. An observation stated by Lord Buddha in his teachings is that 'there is infinite delight in conquering and eliminating a desire rather than satisfying it,' and the second observation is that desire is greater than small pleasures. He emphasizes the divine element, divine grace, which comes from sincere self-giving—something that gives itself to others without expecting anything in return. When one has done this, a feeling of sweet warmth, comfort, intimacy, and radiance arises in the heart. This feeling embodies care and brings about a sense of delightful achievement and a path for you and every other person existing on Earth. With this, the univer...

  || Direction is more important than speed || ''The day you plant the seed is not the day you eat the fruit.'' What a statement with so much depth. It's just true; every seed of nature or human being takes time to grow, to plant and nurture a good human being. In this fast-paced and rapidly advancing world, especially among youngsters, there's a prevailing demand for everything to happen at mechanical speed. They don't seem to believe in words like focus, patience, direction, or integrity. Instead, they believe in obtaining everything on a platter with rocket speed. I have observed that everywhere, people are fixated on short-term gains, focusing on quick gains and using persuasive tactics to amass wealth and establish relationships. Very few contemplate long-term goals, quality maintenance, and nurturing relationships. Especially in the realm of social media, there is an insatiable hunger for an ever-increasing number of followers, yet few are willing to i...

  GROW WITH THE FLOW As long as you are breathing, everything is possible. One should never quit; keep trying and make the rest of life the best of life. Such a positive statement is easy to say but difficult to follow. However, if given no option and one tries, then nothing is difficult. For that matter, an easy and positive affirmative approach is to grow with the flow. Many times, parents come to us asking for guidance on how to deal with their kids. In earlier times, our ancestors never had any educational formula to teach kids. During those years, kids used to learn by observing their environment and others. Nowadays, there are so many guidelines for pre-pregnancy, post-pregnancy, and parenting that parents get confused about whom to follow and whom not to. There are numerous dos and don'ts for kids to learn language that they forget what is natural. I feel parents should not make any special efforts and just be natural with kids. They should make them observe everything aroun...
