The Test of Truth

And here is the Test of Truth-anything that makes you weak physically,intellectually,reject as Poison;there is no Life in it ,it cannot be true(III. 224-25) courtesy-Ramakrishna Mission Institute of Culture

 The Human embodies itself in a body that is materialistic . But the Human I know is the soul that is the definition I see-both semantically as well as the meaning that should be realised. And though, we may overlook the lifespan as something concerning only the materialistic being; It is the Soul that continues to live on. Both as a Legacy in this mortal world or as the Pure one enlightening future souls if someone believes in the AfterLife. Truth, though relative on the Earth has a clear cut distinction when we come to the Soul. Anything that makes it weak, that makes it believe that something is impossible, something is unreachable and that someone holds the remote of our lives is the Fallacy.This realisation makes it all the importance in understanding that the human body though mortal needs a life called the Soul to make things happen on this mortal world. It is important to change the outlook from the narrow alleys of the Body to the wider limitless domain of the Soul.What good is a ship without a Captain, what good is a smartphone without a battery and what good is a body without a strong soul; a lively heart. All of this may come naturally to some but it requires effort , even though unseen to all, to understand how an enriched soul helps to bring out the best of a human body.So here is the test of truth-What is it that holds you back.What is that setback that left a scar on you and your heart screaming every time that this isn't for you; when you always knew this is what is meant to be!! Its a very simple test-The mind makes a goal for you not being completely detached from your heart but subconsciously aligning itself with the heart and soul to accomplish all that you longed for. However, this isn't so easy to get past- and hence its imperative and natural to get setbacks.Setbacks don't get you weak-its what follows that makes you feel helpless.And what follows is entirely a shadow that is created in the backdrop of an illumination.That illuminated background is what you are after and setbacks are proof that light exists at the other side of the tunnel.So rather than rebuking fate and going over books of palmistry, try to understand that what you set out for was a journey your Soul took and its your intuition which would help you see success.The mind may clog itself trying to decipher what is right and what is wrong-what is the truth and what is untrue.But here come the power of Faith-Believing what you set out for is the key to unlocking success and achieving the results you desired for.The Body ought to get tired pretty quickly but the Soul is the never resting being that rest not until the Goal is achieved. This is true for both materialistic pleasures as well the the peace and happiness all of us are running after.Its best to leave decisions about truth to the subconscious- and your intuition is the tool that connects to the Subconscious. So here we take the easy way out-all those things that make your intent and decision making weak is NOT THE TRUTH!!!

Happiness or Greatness

      In the treacherous ruffle of thought and the unsettling visions that dwell within the mind, the foundation of all displeasure lies in the basic crave for staying happy. And amidst the frantic search for peace and happiness, we often skip the most important part that is solely enough to provide us what we long for. Happiness and Me are synonymous. unfortunately we look past ourselves, or to be more precise when we seek it, we don't count ourselves in. Be it seeking peace from material possessions to relying on the emotions of someone dear or even the sight of a loved one or a loved dream; we Do skip the Me from all of the search. To my bewilderment and to everyone's when they do come to realise it, the happiness dwells in the individual, the Me more than the search for the Who Else. A mongrel searching for his morsel spends the hours of the day beaten  by the heat or all curled up i the cold seeking an end to his hunger. But unfortunately, it is the very person who moves and finds the food but for a meagre quantity. If only,He Seeks a higher dream. But it is natural for a struggling soul to get bogged down by his own expectations. Seeking happiness in others and hoping someone else finds it for Us or building the pillars of emotions which is the fruit of sweat of not Me may collapse easily around us with us being either silent Victims or the more heroic ones coming out bruised. Some recover from their bruises only to lose their senses of the intricacies of Happiness forever or some are crippled.The crippled ones go back to building one after another do away structures of pseudo Happiness. And the Heroic ones quell their mind and heart into not believing the most basic fabric of life-Happiness. Happiness is not  commodity.Happiness is more than the search.its the Realisation.Happiness is not about achieving.Its about Believing.And Happiness is like Love.More than getting its about Giving Back. The Quest for Happiness is a meaningless search in the deep forests only to find yourself moving in circles. It is that worthwhile seeker who searches for thy hand when it is happily a part of His own.

       But not all lie in peace. Not all rest when they all cuddle in their comfort zones. Comfort is the price of a rested mind. And a calm Heart. But isn't that what We all desire. Not everytime. And rightly so ! Because the wheel of progress both material and spiritual stops ! We Seek. Either Happiness at our current levels or at another. And we need to move to seek at a higher level. So , there are beings who strive for success and more hard work which results in more success.Success is not entirely materialistic. It brings forth new avenues and exposes doors to the human race that never opened. And then we have followers of success seeking their own goals at a higher level. This is bound to bring in the path of the leader, countless thorns and obstacles and maybe He may have to get rid of them alone or with some help from a Higher power. His success as is synonymous with lots of other ones is epitome to the fact that the Success is also a result of that Higher power and certified. Greatness is just a term used by the masses. This quest for "" Greatness "" is not a all calm but a journey through the stormy seas. And hence, The Mind and Soul is at War. A War that is sometimes necessary in real world too to weed out parasites and the sick agents. This Seeker is thus called a Great Soul. And He seldom rests. And Rightly so.

So , as I have always believed.The Juice should always be Worth the Squeeze. And You are here to Achieve Happiness or Achieve Greatness
