Knowing The Soul

You may think that you already know the soul.At present you are only aware of the outward manifestations of the soul; you do not know the soul.

There is only one way of knowing the soul: to know the soul within yourself. The ignorant think they can know the soul through the senses.But all knowledge through the senses involves the duality of the knower and the known.Knowledge of the soul transcends the duality of the object .

Thus to know the soul within yourself you must rise to a higher level of consciousness. At this higher level you no longer identify yourself with your body; and so physical birth and death cease to matter- you are immortal.

To know the soul is to dwell in perfect light.To be ignorant of the soul in utter darkness. Thus knowledge of the soul within yourself should be the only goal of your life.

Mr.Y and his sir

As we come to know much about a person eventually we start to love him.But its not true in this case here is an example of love at first sight of two good minds.This post was about my love to my superior.Yes this one to my boss Mr.X. Y fondly like to call him as Sir,From here Sir means Mr.X(an HOD).And Mr.Y is a disciple of Mr.X...

The story begins as Mr.Y met Sir on one afternoon when Mr.Y had dispute with his office colleague, Suddenly they took Mr.Y to sir and introduced him but Mr.Y was so embarrassed since at the mid of a dispute he is pushed into Sir's cabin.As the introduction was over Mr.Y told "Nice to meet you sir" - True words which Mr.Y had whispered instantly......

Days are galloping, Mr.Y is loaded with work but always rewarded by Sir pushes his energy level more and prepares him for the battle.As a young guy Mr.Y never thought how much he can contribute and he had his own false demarcation.Whereas sir wants Mr.Y to get the knowledge and gave him a chance to be with them in meetings.Slowly he got the knowledge of their work and now from hard worker he evolved as smart worker....

Things seems to be blooming for Mr.Y and given chance in all the possible areas to prove what he deserve to be, slowly Y got moulded for a corporate life.Every meetings and words from Sir conveyed a intellectual meaning to him.Sir's profound knowledge and humanity made him to wish for a dream person within Y like sir.Mr.Y was more curious to know lot about sir, but until now what Y knows is only Sir's birthday Aug 13x2..

Whenever Y was in Sir's cabin Y use to read a phrase "Tough time doesn't exist for a long time.As tough time gets going tough gets going".So whenever Y had his sad account he use to remember this phrase - then he got energised and move to jolly mood in minutes.All his Sir's word will be full of energetic,zeal,natural and Y feels as it is designed to target and mould him.Mr.Y start to wonder how nice it will be if everyone has such a Head in their department...

Time to pay reward for Y's hard work as expected Sir called him and asked Y "what is your aim?".Y told as a cse engineer Y wish to be in IT.A person like Sir will do anything to take one to the right place what they deserve to be.As a result Sir informed Y I had spoken to our IT head and asked Y to meet the IT-head.Things went smoothly and Mr.Y got a chair reserved at IT department.Whereas Mr.Y job nature is not defined at IT and not offered a big chance to explore himself.But Mr.Y was informed by the IT head that he will be put into his area of interest in future.So Y was doing what he was intend to do....

As the days were slipping Mr.Y contract period comes to an end and one unfortunate day Y is out of his first job.All his dreams are shattered, tared into pieces, not able to see his friends as he is out of the race.Still Y rememebers the very next day Y was lying in bed till 10.30am watching his friend rushing to office has a heart pealing pain within him.All his entire one year effort was collapsed and dont know what to do?.But IT head told him there may a chance for Y to be back but unfortunately it doesn't happened.Y was drenched in sorrow but Y got a good experience in exploring different pupils..

With an excruciating pain,Y decide to call sir and explained his situation, since Sir's budget for his department for that fiscal year is closed Sir cannot help Y.But his kind and powerful words of sir healed all his wounds and bought him back for an another fresh journey.Then Y decided to call sir on every Saturday then changed to Friday since all Sir's Saturdays are reserved for his outings.May be around 20 times Y should had spoken to sir and all those minutes are the vital minutes of Y's life which keeps him moving.Even though cyberspace and telecom keeps them in touch but their separation kills the days of Y....

A leader should be a true entrepreneur and who values the importance of his employee and feeds them with what they required, sir is a kind of human who exactly fit for the word -Leadership.Y proclaim Sir as the greatest gift which god had given and he wishes the shelter of Sir's wisdom to be enjoyed by Y for all his life.And Y really dont know what he can pay pack to sir and he is sure that nothing can reciprocate what sir had given to Y.Y prays to god for the long happy life of sir.His kind of person is rare to be seen and Y met the right on his way...

Truly, Deeply, Madly Y likes his Sir....

Miracle of Music

"Music can express feelings." - no one can regret it.I feel music as a best half of my life as it heals all my wounds.Is there anything greater then mind?? then my answer will be music because music has the ability to touch ones mind and then take control over it.I wish to give life to music by emphasising three of its formidable characters - "intention, thought & meditation".Only living beings can poses all these characters but up to my perception music posses all these character in a relation with the divine sacredness....

Intention is the point at which mind and speech converge. Earth and sky, wind and space, water and fire all are fashioned through a intention.Similarly music is also fashioned by a intention within it.A pensive mind gets the exact intention of music and for others it was just a passing cloud.So music is strongly associated with an intention hence music can change the mind of a person in-tension...

Is there anything greater then intention?? then my answer will be "thought". Yes thought is greater than intention.Through thought you can remain constant and steadfast.If you direct your thought to some goal you can attain it.Thought can move with complete freedom but music has the ability to take the control over it and evokes a fresh maiden thought in life.Hence music is amalgamated with lots of fresh thoughts.....

Is there anything greater than thought?? then my answer will be meditation.Yes through meditation one can understand the universe.So what music can do with meditation may be a question but answer lies within the mind of everyone who truly loves music.Just examine this when you hear a beautiful melody then automatically for few second you are spellbound and that moment you can realise your touch with your soul.Hence music is coupled with meditation.....

So music lives in each of us, just a sparkle of it is enough to invoke your mind and take the control over your intention,thought and meditation.One miracle of music lies, how a single molecule of air gets converted into a pleasant music.Music is not a pleasant sense to a single organ.It even induce the dead cell of our body(hair) then what about our living cells??...

Hence music has miracles within it and love the music which is within you.If possible live like a music such that make others to be happy when you are a part of their life....

I started with the idea of adding beauty to music but I had ended somewhere...

Anyway love and live like a music....

Me @ Ponmalai…

A beautiful place which I never thought of crossing it. My radical soil, where I learnt to walk, run, play,speak, fight …etc. A spacious place where I had my complete freedom to roam around the corners of ponmalai. Every breath of me was secure and I was careless jaywalker on the streets of ponmalai. Even though now I was in Mumbai I feel restless because its like a relative home and I feel as I lost my holy relation with my mother’s soil. I thought of having a short review about all my lovable places at ponmalai..

During my childhood days my favourite place is “Manjathidal Station”. Every evening I force my father to take me to the station to watch the trains. I really don’t know why I love to watch the train but I feel very happy when the train had crossed me. Then there will be a undiminished happiness in my face. I really feel sorry to my dad for putting him in extra work. Sorry Dad!!!..

My next favourite place is my home and its surrounding. A stepping out of my home will be the ground, where I use to play like a crouching tiger for its prey .At that time I was accompanied by a group of sisters and brothers of one year or two years of age difference, With whom I play “Nadu pirithal, Sathura Papathi, Ice boy, Current, Bamparam, Kolly kundu, Pae pae, Seven stone, Complan flight disc….etc.” all these games steal my childhood times. Now slowly these games are getting extinct due to TV and Cricket. Future generation is going to miss such flawless happiness.(Will soon c a post on “extinct games”)..

As we are grown and due to some female quotient all those sisters are not allowed to mingle with us. And at this time cricket was stealing the attraction of every Indian child. I too fall on the trap and now cricket becomes my passion. By now my favorite place is Cricket ground. Whereas my parent’s don’t like me playing cricket and they locked me in the home, through the doors I will be watching what others play. All my neighbors will be kidding at me to my mother saying , “Senthil amma the sunrays are getting wasted and allow senthil to play otherwise tomorrow sun will never arise”. I look on my mother with a disappointed face...

And by now am in sweet teen age and I had my wings to fly. So I just roamed all the corners of ponmalai and left my foot mark in all the directions. One beautiful place which I had seen is there was a garden at G-corner with some beautiful plants and big trees covering the entire ground space of the garden. This place has enough numbers of birds singing and rejoicing. Bad luck is this area was governed by the Railways and we are not allowed to stay for a long time…

Another beautiful place which I came to know through my friend’s is “Vouyagonda Vaikal”. When we all moved towards to south end of ponmalai that is crossing M.K. Kottai we find this water stream. With lot of amuesment we all will sink into the water and the biggest fun lies in pulling and pushing one into the water and falling over him ensuring tat he was completely immersed into the water for few seconds. What a thrill yar?? .Now seeing those childhood friend itself becomes as miracle then what to say about a play in water. Beauty is surrounding this water stream you can see only the paddy fields stretching for miles …..

Now the well frog is out of the well. Yes for my higher secondary studies I have to go to K.K. nagar by getting into two buses (Hurting travel in bus no.17, 109 & then 88 really too bad) . I really like our bus stop”Mariamman kovil” bus stop. There where four big trees providing the shadow for the passengers to stand and single tea stall then a small bus stop with seating arrangements. Since these four trees are too big and it has lot of birds residing and enjoying. The atmosphere looks pleasant during the rainy season, since aside the bus stop there will be a small water stream which has small fishes, crabs, snail, water snakes…etc. I really love to watch and find any of them in the water. Often during my sad account I use to sit in the bus stop and relax.

I hope the post continues whenever am into the same account ….

Finding the soul

When people truly understand the soul, they proclaim: "I am the soul." What desire could such people continue to have? What anxieties could they possibly have about their bodies?...

When people find and recognize the soul within themselves, they realize that the soul is the creator of all things, the author of universe itself. They know that the world belong to the soul - the world is the soul.

We can find and recognize the soul even while we are alive on earth.And though finding the soul, we become immortal.But so long as we fail to find the soul,we must endure great suffering.

When we percive the soul is divine- when we acknowledge the soul as the matter of what was, what is, and what will be- all fear is dispelled. We rejoice in that perception, since it makes us immortal.

The soul is the breathing behind breathing, the sight behind sight, the hearing behind hearing, the thinking behind thought. The soul has existed from before the begining of time.

"Those who know the soul realize thal all is one.They realize that diversity is an illusion, and unity is truth. Those who see only diversity, and cannot see unity, wander from death to death."
