Taking deep breaths while meditating a thought just crossed my mind.
What are the substances we receive inside our body from external space?
The mind is the most powerful tool where we create blue print of our lives.
This is the seat where ideas, thoughts and intentions take birth.
We allow plans and designs from our external environment to enter our minds.
We are choosers here!
We nurture our bodies with water and food which we absorb from our natural environment.
Our physical health is largely governed by what we consume.
We are choosers here!
Our bodies are connected with our soul through a seemingly modest sounding word called breath.
Breath is prana and it is life giving force.
The deeper it is the better the quality of our lives.
Here too, we are choosers!
The mind, the body and the soul thrive on a beautiful concoction of thoughts, nutrition and breath work.
Who can discern what enters our being?
You and only you.
The quality of our lives, our happiness, health and our general wellbeing is apparently governed by factors which are in our control.
Yet we fail at taking ownership,
Yet we choose to blame things outside of us for the predicament we are in our lives.
Yet we choose to stay despondent and miserable.
What is actually the formula or secret to stay happy?
Is it some degree, recognition, an award, a medal or being at the top of the game in the rat race that is self-created?
What we see as a sure shot hack for happiness is nothing but an illusion.
It is a sham!
More often than not, when you reach there, you still find yourself miserable.
Why is that so?
It is because you placed your happiness in the things, people, situations, post and credentials.
Where happiness does not live.
True and everlasting happiness is found only within you and it can never be had any other way.
