And the journey continues.....

Feel the feelings......

When ever there is a road block or sudden upheaval in life or situation gets out of control, we tend to look beyond this familiar pattern of thought process. Wishing for a miracle from somewhere or someone who might be knowing little more than what we understand or believe in !!

That search to find the way out of current situation, is full of desperation and hope. We try to follow people or places religiously so as to get out of current pain and find ultimate relief. ….. .. .

That desperation is the portal to go beyond our normal patterns of life, we have followed so far.

Life can’t just be a happy ride all the time. It is meant to send us on a roller coaster journey, so as to make us conscious of our own power. We can’t remain in a fixed mode for ever in human form. This is against our own evolutionary process.

So to evolve and progress beyond a point there will be pain, heartbreaks, breach of trust, tough challenges or some unexpected incidents. It may seem like all the troubles are meant to test me only!!

But purpose of all these roadblocks is to jolt our ego, shatter our old belief systems and make us rethink about life in a different perspective.

Feelings can transcend life..

It’s definitely not easy to live with pain and trauma, but it’s more dangerous to get stuck and remain unconscious through out these rough life patches.

  • When ever life throw challenges upon us, our first reaction is resistance ( conditioned human mind)
  • Sooner we understand the reality, better it is to get out of the loop.
  • Feelings play a major role in our lives. We tend to follow our heart and remain lost in the sea of emotions. But when things go wrong, and feelings get hurt badly, we must also learn to come out of that ocean of emotions, before it engulf us entirely.
  • What ever happen with us, learn to observe it. How so ever tough it may get, take your time to absorb it and then start observing the feelings surging within.

Initially it may seem like impossible to get out of old habits of mind, but slowly observing self from a distance will give you a better approach to face such situations.

It’s easy to say than done, but it’s definitely an excellent practice of getting out of our habitual thinking pattern.

We will have to swim across this ocean of life, facing every wave with awareness and try to look beyond a limited mindset.

What is life??

Ponder upon this question regularly.

Just eating, earning and producing is enough or there should be a way to explore life from some other perspective too?

If you are satisfied with limited view of life and don’t want to explore it beyond a fixed vision, then why to look any where else for help? Why anyone else will solve your problem, if you are not ready to step beyond your own fixed and narrow perspective?

Just think about it !!!!
