    Confused about praying and meditating?

    It is easy to be confused by powerful words and concepts such as religion, prayer, worship, meditation, spirituality, etc.particularly when they are bandied about so cheaply and irresponsibly. Most of us humans are obsessed with greed, material success and failures. We are also plagued by both genuine and imaginary fears and problems. To cope we have conceived of an all knowing, all powerful parent figure called God. God, in the world of believers is someone high and mighty,

    What Meditation is not

    The Western mind deeply influenced by Judaism, Christianity and Islam which has no room for meditation. Contemplation yes, meditation no. Hence the Oxford dictionary erroneously defines 'meditation' and 'indulgence in thought. Ignorance can mislead us. The concept of meditation originated in the East where great Masters shared it with their disciples. Unfortunately, even though India is the birth place of Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism, there is a lot of misunderstan

    Truth is not attained, it is realised.

    'The Truth lies within us'. What did the Gurus and masters mean by that? What did Jesus mean when he said, "The kingdom of God lies within us"? Therein lies the answer. God called by a thousand names in numerous language are just another name for the Truth. Truth is not an acquisition that has to be sought. It is not a goal to be attained. It is a realisation and an awakening. If truth cannot be attained, then how is it realised? To be truly happy and liberated, then to the c

    It will pass

    We will always see the divine in the form we have been taught all our lives in our places of study and worship or in our literature and art. If that should happen, then we should know that we are not experiencing the divine. The human mind is so powerful that it easily fools even us ourselves. When we desperately long for something, our mind is easily capable of conjuring it up for us. Our minds are very powerful, therefore it projects whatever we desperately seek. We feel we

    How did Zen originate?

    Zen originated in India with the laughter of Maha Kasyapa, one of Gautama Buddha's close disciple. One morning all the disciples watched with incredulously as Buddha walked in with a rose flower in his hand. For about half an hour he just sat and looked at the rose flower, all were silent and fidgeting when suddenly Maha Kasyapa laughed. Gautama Buddha called Maha Kasyapa to him and gave him the flower. Addressing the 10,000 strong gathering Gautama Buddha said, "All what I h

    Feel Alive and be Happy

    In Greek mythology, Icarus was the son of the famous craftsman Daedalus, the creator of the Labyrinth. They were imprisoned in a tower by King Minos. Clever Daedalus managed to create two sets of wings for himself and his son, that were made of feathers glued together with wax. He taught Icarus how to fly and warned him not to fly too high, which would cause the wax to melt, nor too low, which would cause the feathers to get wet with sea water. Together, they flew out of the
