Satya - The Truth

By -

 I always wondered about what the word ‘Satya’ meant. If only it meant to speak the truth all the time , then why did people in the past like Harischandra ji got such experiences ?

How to be trueful when it is not valued? I believe that anything in this world will have its full effect when it is ‘valued’!! And it is taken for granted?Or when it is being commented?

 Let me tell you a scenario . In today’s world, we run behind many things. Our everyday life is more like a race. We get told few of these lines - 

‘ You are running out of age, Get married soon’

‘Your friends are earning more than you, why not you?’

‘Some random person has got nice big villa, why are you living in a small cosy home?’

‘Oh! You got such a nice costly thing, you must be a millionaire’

‘You look so ugly, why not get some makeup?’

‘You used too much make up to look so beautiful, why are you faking the beauty with make up?’


Blah blah blah….


But why don’t anyone think about the standard of living doesn’t define the standard of happiness?

And the standard of happiness/ fulfilment/ contentment is the one key thing for a happy life?


And that the standard of happiness can be different for everyone?

And that everyone have their freedom to think of such core values that makes the foundation for their standard of happiness , which in-turn helps in the quality rich life style?

So, if someone is earning some crores of money and living happy , doesn’t necessarily mean that earning crores  should make everyone else happy too. 

And if someone is deciding on things very quick and the other takes time to decide on things , it is absolutely normal. It doesn’t make either of them unusual or abnormal.

I don’t know why but in today’s society, we come across such comments atleast once everyday. 

And I am not sure if anyone knows how much that puts a negative effect on someone when it happens for a prolonged time period. 

I wish people be a little considerate before they roll out any comments. 


Also, I am glad to have known some interesting thing today by Radhika ji from Satvik Yoga. As per Yoga , Satya means not just speaking truth about something external but also being in sync with your core values. Being trueful to self.

How to be trueful to self?

Know your core values

Sync your thoughts accordingly 

Sync your actions accordingly 


And then look at how peaceful you could be. Such blissful feel.

And that’s the exact thing I had on mind but then how do you achieve it when you cannot sync them with core values because they are not accepted by the society around you? ( I mean , even for simple things like a girl cannot talk more. A boy cannot cry out loud . You cannot pick Engineering as you are from a doctor family…..).

I will get back when i find the answer. There must be an answer for this :)

Now, while you realise and awe at  how much your smart devices are helping you,  Did you also note a point that all of these are still the computers but...

Feminity and Masculanity

By -
 I have had this sense of a feeling recently about the Feminity and Masculanity - which felt like are the other words for Energy (Shakthi) and Matter (Purusha) respectively. Just look at the properties of all those described under these words - they match right? Shakthi roopam - that refers to the ‘Ammavaru’ (Goddess) which translates to the feminine power. Purusha roopam - that refers to the ‘Ayyavaru’ (God) which translates to the masculine power. We need to dive a bit deeper in to understand more properties of these two forms , which then can be related to the Energy and the Matter. And to my understanding so far, I have got to a conclusion that Energy is the Shakthi/Feminity and Matter is the Purusha/Masculanity. Hmm..! :)

Karna and Duryodhana

By -
  What’s the difference between them? This is something that I felt while watching the Indian Epic , Mahabharatham . Everyone knows Karna has been very good in his deeds and he is well  known as “Daana Veera Sura Karna” . And similarly everyone knows what kind of a greedy person Duryodhana is ,and how blind has he become towards his acts with greed for power and property. Having known this difference - why is Karna taken to face the same bad hits as Duryodhana even though Karna is no where close to Duryodhana in any form?Here is the answer. Karna never has been greedy of anything .All that he wished was that a person must be respected for his skills . Karna being a son of a charioteer (though actually born as a Kshatriya, no one was aware of this except Kunti devi and he was always treated the son of a charioteer until the time this truth about his birth got revealed ) who belongs to the Shudra varna. When his thoughts were matched by Duryodhana’s offer to let his skills be sh...
