Worries…. is one of the basic feeling of humans. Everybody worries about something or other. It would be a lie if I say I dont worry at all. In this discussion I focus on our day to day worries. For e.g., some stress at home, missing bus and arriving late to office, vehicle repair and unneccessary expenses, credit crunch, lesser marks in exams, etc., These are basic worries which we encounter everyday at life.
All such worries creates bigger impact in our life like it creates lot of stress and make us sick. Creates tension and strain our relationship with others as we sometimes lose our control over our words and much much more.
All I say is there is nothing wrong in getting worries, there is nothing wrong in feeling bad.
At the same time, accept that you are feeling bad and drain your worries.
For e.g., if you are feeling bad about something, once you are aware about that fact, you start imagine that your worry is draining away from brain or fly away from your brain. Animate it and be creative and make the process more interesting. you can also think that a soldier is killing your worry. You also think that you are erasing your worry written in your mind. whichever way you are comfortable with.
After that process, believe it that the worry has vanished from your mind doesnt exist anymore.
At the same time, within few minutes your subconscious mind will pop up with the same worry again, animate it again. It is purely within your mind. As you continuously do that your mind calms down and you would feel better, and more importantly that worry would not stored into subconscious mind and as a result would not have any negative impact in future.

I just gave the heading of this article as “Art of sitting idle” just to dramatize and attract you to the article, but I am sure you will enjoy this as other blog posts.
Actually, I am going to discuss about “Art of sitting idle and relax”.
As we all might realize that the world around us is moving at very high speed. Late hours at work have become routine and we don’t feel guilt about it. There are numerous tasks ahead of us and we are running hard to catch up. Mobile phones and Blackberry have become more common and we are expected to be connected to the network 24 x 7 x 365.
In that process, we are missing a lot in our very short life. We are paying very high price. We are ignoring our body, mind and soul. I would say that many of us are atleast aware of taking care of body (by doing regular or at least irregular exercises, at least one time healthy food). But we are absolutely ignoring very important factor i.e., mind.
We don’t care/aware about the existence of mind and our need to take care of that. Since we are not doing, all sorts of unhealthy thinking getting into your sub-conscious mind and in turn it makes our life sick.
One of the medical journal estimates that every 2 out of 5 American requires a sleeping pill to sleep. Isn’t sleep should be natural? Because of our ignorance of mind, all these problems exist.
I am going to recommend to you “Art of sitting idle” to you.
Every day consciously spend time with Nature. At least 5 or 10 minutes to start with. It could be sitting in morning sun. It could be watching a bird. It could be watching a child sleep. It could be morning mist. It could be watching plants/flowers. It could be watching a sea/rain/river. It could be a bird’s feather flying in wind. Anything associated with nature.
I am not talking about morning activity like gardening, jogging, brisk walking – all that is really appreciated and it is focused to body. But all I am concerned about is our minds.
During this time with Nature, let sit and notice the beauty of this world. Embrace it in your mind. Talk to it. Appreciate it – All slowly and steadily.
The outcome would be multi fold. Over the time you would appreciate the fact that how much beautiful the nature is. It would relax your nerves and calms you down. It paints a nice picture in your mind and it is ready for that day’s work load. And when you are tense, your subconscious mind automatically brings in that picture in front of you resulting in calm mind, and it means greater power. Because Calmer mind brings in greater power.
I heard from Amma Bhagavan (www.onenessuniversity.org) that brain as a organism work better when you feel gratitude.
I thought of putting that in practice. Everyday I wake up or pray to the god, I feel grateful to god for all the things happened in my life. I make sure that I dont fume in my prayers nor when I talk with people. I as a person have become much more happy, clearer in vision and leading a healthy life.
In addition to this there are many other things which I have put together and sharing with people in my website www.vedicsecret.com
I wish that people learn those and be happy.
Hello there, sorry for not writing for a long time. Now I’m back.
I was just asking my 3.5 yr old son….”Dear, are you happy?”… He said “Yes”… the response was instant…. I was just noticing him… He is happy to go to school…. play with his mates…. play with his toys at home…. sing nursery rhymes…. seeing mickey mouse…. just one after another activity…. I find him happy……
Its just the nature of his child’s mind to be happy…. There is no pre-condition for him to be happy… Its his mind’s nature…. I think thats the case of almost all kids…..
As we grow, we gain strength in physic, we gain more knowledge, we become more intelligent, we gain more skills, we learn to speak multiple languages… but somehow down the line, we miss the nature of being happy… We add more and more precondition for our happines….
If I get the admission in this college, i would be happy. If i get this job, If I get this salary, If I get this life as my girlfriend, If I get this girl as my wife, If I get bigger house, If I get big car, If I travel aboard for pleasure trip, If I earn money, etc., etc., etc.,
All I saying is expectation is not bad…. All I am saying is desire is good…. also I am saying that it is human;s nature is being happy…. and we can simply be happy, and you dont need anything else for that… You just decide and be happy….
When I wake up in the morning… I have 2 choices… either be happy for the whole day or be unhappy for the day….. its my decision….. I decide to be happy…. Its just as easy as that….. Hope you do that and be happy too.
