Dream!



Action is inevitable as long as there is energy.
During Rapid Eye Movement (REM) in the sleep cycle, our system becomes active but the body is still at rest. Hence the only way of activity during this phase is through the mind. Like in normal life, the level of awareness,  resources, environment, experiences, etc, decide the course of our life. Same happens during REM but without all man made limitations. The impressions of the experiences that happened to us in combination with the memory storage that needs exhaustion act rapidly creating meaningful/meaningless, real/unreal play of events that we call as a dream. And this is why, it seems so real, so weird and sometimes the same may happen in real life too.
By practicing any spiritual discipline, one can become conscious, hence can alter these cycles by will.
Eg- reduce the overall sleep time by increasing the time of sound sleep and still be active throughout the day.

Nepotism!

I remember as a child how much I used to hate eating healthy. There were numerous times where I didn't want to eat a particular vegetable or dal and so I would starve myself for a couple of hours and boom! My parents would give me whatever I wanted to eat because I mattered to them. Living in a decent locality and having family and friends from similar localities, I could never see anything wrong with this world. Being brutally honest, everything on the news was just news to me! Well, everything nice and pretty until I moved out of my comfort area and started meeting different kinds of people. At first their life stories were nothing more than stories to me. Then came a person who happened to become my closest of friends, when he shared his story of life, a part of it was a time when he didn't have the opportunity to eat 3 meals a day! Now this time I didn't feel it like "just another story". Something so deep pinched me so bad that I was more than rea...

Butterflies!

Never fall for someone who gives you "butterflies in the stomach." The sensation of feeling butterflies in the stomach is a sign of nervousness and no where even near related to love. Generally during nervousness attack the mind tries to find an escape from the situation. But when given some time, it will adjust and will find ways to survive through it. This is how it goes in everyday life. But sometimes, rather rarely, when a person is trying to come for you which directly means that the person is only trying to get you for specific needs. Be it emotional, physical, psychological, financial or all of them. In this situation the mind only tries to understand and get familiar to that person. There's no way it can relax and handle the situation because the person ain't giving you that much time and so the immediate signaling happens through the stomach. This intense sign is what people call "butterflies in the stomach." Since this happens towards a person ...

Youth and Addictions!

Youth - the wonderful phase of a person's life. The phase that opens the doors for many new opportunities and beginnings. A phase when used to it's finest, has the potential to turn a person's life into a treasure. But also into a dark hole if mislead or not guided properly. 13-30 years of age is usually considered as youth. This is the time when the internal activity of an individual is at it's maximum. A lot of changes happen inside the body and our perception is enhanced. It is during this time that one has to ensure they blossom in the right way. Failing to do so often brings immense suffering to the life of that person. This is the reason why, any situation that never bothered you or which you never thought would affect you during childhood, shows a whole new affect if the same happens during youth. Human mind is the most sophisticated machine available to mankind but unfortunately not everyone knows it's entirety. People struggle immensely on a daily basis jus...
