Nothing more empowering than realizing your true self

Who Am I?

From where I have come?

Am I just a physical entity or there is something more profound which prevails beyond this visible world?

I know at some point of life we all must have faced certain situations where life seemed so complicated that getting out of that phase was the only option we could think of.

We may have different backgrounds, languages or professions, but we share almost similar types of emotions in our lives. Our mind is constantly trying to figure out the mystery of life but is it possible to find a solution amidst turbulence?🤔

Everything is fair in the journey of life🤗

Life sometime seems very unfair if we compare it with others.

We may complain with the laws of nature, where being a victim seems an easy option to put away the baggage of our pain on someone’s else shoulders. It can relieve us from our pain for a period of time, but on the long run we would have to own the responsibility of our actions.

There is no discrimination of any sort with any one in this entire gamut of life. We all are free to exercise our choices and grow from our experiences. There is no lack, no pain, no misery only if we leave our victim mentality aside. What we call suffering is actually a powerful tool to learn and grow out of our limitations.

What we call pain today will be our strength tomorrow and time is the only trustworthy friend in this entire journey of life which helps us to understand this entire play more clearly only after we go through the process.

There is nothing unfair or fair but its all a matter of perception.

There are billions of humans on this planet and everyone is going to get affected by someone or something. We can’t just isolate ourselves from the world and play a victim card for life.

This process named life will have to go through various twist and turn so as to keep this machinery running and evolving.

Won’t we get fed up with life where every thing will be available on platter without any effort? Mind will start repeating the same old record and life will get dull and boring. There will be no newness, no passion.

We are creating our life with every passing moment

It may sounds cliche’s that we create our own destiny but this is the truth. If we analyse our life we will accept that majority of the time it was our decision to play a particular part.

We may recall some decisions being taken under pressure or fear, but we can’t deny that we were the final authority to put the last stamp on paper.

We have the right to change the direction of our life at any moment but then many factors come to surface —

One of them is fear of losing control over our life.

We are so accustomed to our habitual ways of living that we almost give up upon trying new ideas and feel safe and secure in following old routes which seems more comfortable.

Fears can be of many types which holds us back from exploring the untouched aspects of our life. Like fear of rejection, failure, change, loosing freedom, loneliness, getting judged which prevent us from achieving our greatest potential.

Facing fears will make us realize our true self

We just can’t rely on fate or some external force to take control of our life and save us from uncertainties. There will be all sorts of experiences in life and we must face them boldly.

Is there any way out? Can you stop life from displaying its tricks?

Incessant fears obscure the larger truths of life. As long as you are alive, you will have fears. It is an intrinsic part of our existence.

If we resist or push it aside, we will miss a powerful opportunity for healing. When we face our fears with mindfulness and compassion, we begin to realize the power of awareness.

Awareness is a simple understanding of where our mind goes and when. We must be aware of the paths our mind likes to take before we can begin to question why it choose those paths and whether those paths are helping or hurting us.

This power of awareness is the gift for entire humanity to realise our true potentials, and awaken to the larger picture beyond our limited self. 😇
