ॐ पूर्णमदः पूर्णममदं पूर्णणत्पुर्णमुदच्यते
पूर्णस्य पूर्णमणदणय पूर्णमेवणवमिष्यते ॥
ॐ िणन्तः िणन्तः िणन्तः ॥ (Isa Upanishad)
Meaning:
Om, That (Outer World) is Full (Full with Divine
Consciousness); This (Inner World) is also full
(Full with Divine Consciousness); Taking full
from the full the full itself remains. (From the
Fullness of Divine Consciousness the World is
manifested because the Divine Consciousness
is Non-Dual and infinite). Om Peace, Peace,
Peace.
 Happiness is but a
Choice

Bad things do happen;

how I respond to them
defines my character and
the quality of my life. I can
choose to sit in perpetual
sadness, immobilized by
the gravity of my loss, or I
can choose to rise from
the pain and treasure the
most precious gift I have -
life itself.

Life is ten percent what happens to you and ninety percent how you
respond to it.

 UNDERSTANDING STRESS
Stress is body’s way of reacting to any situation
Stress is defined as anything that disrupts the normal
person’s physical or mental well-being.
.

Stress arises due to the

demands placed on an individual
and the individual’s inability to
meet these demands.

Today I choose life. Every morning when I wake

up I can choose joy, happiness, negativity,
pain... To feel the freedom that comes from
being able to continue to make mistakes and
choices - today I choose to feel life, not to deny
my humanity but embrace it.

What is it that we are looking for?

All the comforts and

luxuries of life make
us only feel dull

All the power and

weapons make us only
feel more weak and
miserable?
 Change is in the Air

Problems of human beings cannot be quantified in material

terms

Problems rather are metaphysical and spiritual

Till we remain ignorant about the spiritual needs of the humans,

till we keep on denying the existence of our soul i.e the universal
soul for that matter we would remain clueless about everything
and therefore would remain in disgust.
