Unhealthy Relationships

"We are social animals who need friends. We need a community to survive. Friends are made on the basis of trust, which only grows if you are kind to people. Exploiting, cheating and bullying others will win you no friends. Kindness and compassion gives rise to self confidence, which in turn empowers you to be honest, truthful and transparent. This self-confidence brings peace of mind, which also favours good health ".-Dalai Lama

Say No to unhealthy relationships . What is unhealthy relationships ?

1. Relationship where there is domestic violence

Life Skills

Lets try to follow some basic etiquette . Some etiquette tips and  life skills  which will help us in journey of life  have been  mentioned below.

1. Talk softly on phone . Sometimes we do it unknowingly but it mite cause a lot of disturbance to other people around .

2. When you are physically talking to a person , try to avoid  looking  at your phone and give full attention to person you are talking to unless its very urgent to see your phone.

3.  Lets stop complaining about everything and anything .
I know sometimes life is not fair , but complaining doesn't yield any result  .Take action and move on  rather than cribbing and complaining

4. Don't  compete with anyone . Each one carries their own samskaras (Impressions)   No two people are the same .
Focus on your journey and try to improve on yourself at all levels .


5. Be kind to whomever you meet even if they are not because most of them have their own issues and fighting a harder battle

Irony of life

This picture speaks a lot . Similarly in life , we get attracted to so many things which literally kill us .
.It could be alcohol , junk food , cigarettes or unhealthy relationships . Lets have the awareness and be more selective in what we get attracted to .

Listening and learning   music is good  . " Recent studies have clearly indicated that musical training physically develops the part of the left side of the brain known to be involved with processing language, and can actually wire the brain’s circuits in specific ways"

Say No to alcohol Today

I always knew the ill effects of alcohol . But today came to know about a terrible incident . Someone whom I know is a victim of physical and mental abuse . Its only because of alcohol . Alcohol not only effects your physical health but also your mental state . Under the influence of alcohol , you tend to do things which you would never even imagined off.

Google definitely will give you all the ill effects of alcohol . But when you see a dear person of yours being a victim , then you understand the real effects . Some people say social drinking etc . Whatever is the reason , lets not make someone drink and be the cause of someone s pain .

You may still not realize what I'm saying unless you know someone who is a victim of alcohol abuse.

One interesting read on it . Link posted below .

When you get a high , apart from drinking , then why do you need to drink  . SUDARSHAN KRIYA gives you a greater high than alcohol . Lets not drink and not encourage our near and dear ones as well .

Be Strong

" You know how strong you are.. Only when being strong is the only choice you have "

We see lot of disasters happening around the world . Now it is Nepal earth quake . Anything we can do , apart from donating money ?? Yes , we can send vibrations of peace and love to them . Will it help them .??? Definitely  , Vibrations travel faster than anything .

Don't worry about the results and do the work . Can we do it  ??? Lets try doing it for a day and lets see how we feel  . Definitely productivity will be higher . This is what karma yoga says. Do your best at any situation without worrying about the results. 

Love like rain, can nourish from above, drenching couples with a soaking joy. But sometimes under the angry heat of life, love dries on the surface and must nourish from below, tending to its roots keeping itself alive. 
― Paulo Coelho, By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept

Everything s gonna be alright !

ok kanmani

Some movies give entertainment , some movies give something beyond it. Ok Kanmani was among that . It did have a message .  Commitment is required  in any relationship . May be initially everything will be good , but without a strong commitment , things can go disastrous . It doesn't mean all relationships with commitment will be happily ever after . Things can go wrong . But then if both of them decide , then they can make it work .

Its very important to behave well with people who can't do anything for us . Most of us behave well with people who can help us in any way   but not the ones who can't be of help to us .  I have seen people who talk badly to  waiters etc . This shows your  true character .
