Continuously focussed on the desired outcome.

Working consistently and swiftly and doing what’s needed to achieve the firmed up defined and imagined result.

And having unwavering conviction that whatever desired would be done without fail.

This is how the believers and the achievers and the doers and the givers think and act.

In the eastern scriptures, these people are called karmayogis.

The four pillars defined for this in the vedic scriptures are Sankalpa , Dhyana, Karma, and Shraddha.

When a karmayogi takes a sankalpa, often it’s done as a ritual through a priest at a gathering , and sometimes the Sankalpa is taken privately without even telling anyone..

Then the karmayogi gets into Dhyana often , sometimes meditating and often simply contemplating and reflecting on the sankalpa and assessing what has been done and what’s needed furthur to be done.

That’s being engaged in Karma, which says every action has a consequence, so if one takes actions, things move in the direction of the sankalpa, and you don’t take actions , there is no movement.

The karmayogi also has Shraddha the faith within and the faith in a higher energy, which will help the karmayogis fulfill their sankalpa.

And that’s how the doer the achiever the giver and the believer lives life.

Continuously taking firm resolves always focussed on them taking massive actions towards their fulfillment and always believing that what is asked will be given.

May you therefore understanding these four pillars and practicing the disciplines needed keep dreaming keep resolving and keep achieving to keep making life happen the way you want and keep living life of a karmayogi to keep growing and keep enhancing joy abundance and well being in your life and your world.

Keep living life like the karmayogi and keep making it happen the way you want

This happens when we are constantly working towards our grand visions while being fully aware in the present moment and experiencing the joy and happiness and gratitude that the present moment brings.

Striking this delicate balance happens by anchoring our consciousness towards the most evolved side of the spectrum.

May you know that as per vedic scriptures our consiousnes could be broadly defined as having four stages which are Covered, Shrunken, Budding, Blooming, Fully Bloomed.

Vedic texts describe five states of consciousness related to spiritual progress. “Covered” represents unconsciousness, while “Fully Bloomed” signifies liberation and self-realization.

May you remember that to live most of the time in ecstacy joy and bliss, you need to keep vibrating in the highest state of consioisness which is of self-realization.

The vedic scriptures not only give you this destination , which is merging of Atman – individual consciousness with the Parmatman – universal consciousness or Brahman – the ultimate reality, but also gives you tools and practices through yoga, meditation and other disciplines to reach that destination by embarking on this meaningful and fulfilling journey.

May you reflecting on your state of consiousness keep practicing and keep striving to move towards the higher end of the spectrum and keep enjoying moments of peace and bliss, and keep enhancing abundance joy and well being in your life and your world.

May you have an understanding of your state on consciousness and may you always keep gravitating towards the higher levels and be more peaceful and be more blissful

Vision , determination, and execution make things happen. Those which seem possible, and also those that look impossible.

And it all begins with the thought.The Brihadaranyaka Upanishad of the vedic scripture has a shloka, which means “Whatever a man thinks of, that he becomes. Therefore let a man think good thoughts.” This verse emphasizes the power of thought and intention in shaping our reality, aligning with the initial spark of inspiration and cultivating the dream.

Visualising a better future and making a firm resolve is the starting point.

Then comes relentless execution. This is the most interesting part because although you have a goal and a result in mind , yet you must not be attached to that goal, that’s what Bhagwat Gita says. “Your right is to work only, but never to the fruits of action. Fix your mind on action, but be indifferent to its fruits.” This teaching encourages us to focus on the journey and process of pursuing the dream rather than solely getting attached to the outcome.

May you remember that the way to make life happen the way you want is to follow step by step process of ignition, navigation, propulsion, and continuous growth while sharing the road.

The vedic scriptures have multiple references to the above regarding navigation. The Taittiriya Upanishad says, “Knowledge brings the world closer; ignorance keeps it away.” This emphasizes the importance of acquiring knowledge and understanding relevant to our dream and aligning with the process of research and planning.

Regarding propulsion, the Chandogya Upanishad says, “Never say, ‘I will do it tomorrow.’ Today itself, do what you have to do, do not delay. Death takes one by surprise, like a hunter, and does not wait for work to be finished.” This encourages urgency and consistent action towards your dream, emphasizing not to procrastinate.

Finally, effective execution needs adaptation and learning and collaboration, and support.

May you therefore using your vision determination and effective execution get all that you want and keep enhancing abundance, joy, and well-being in your life and your world.

May you by practicing this always be a creator of not only the possible but also of the impossible.

We only need to strike the perfect balance where our objectives key result areas goals and timelines are intertwined in the desired way for success.

Objectives give us big picture aspirations. They are the ambitious qualitative statements of what we want to achieve. They outline the overall direction and impact we aim for. Well-crafted objectives are inspiring and ignite passion within. They give a clear vision of the “why” behind our efforts.

When we break down our objectives, what we get are the KRA’s.

They are the broad categories that define the areas where progress towards the objective will be measured. They represent the key aspects of our goals. Defined key result areas give us focus and prioritization.

Goals set within each KRA’s give us quantifiable milestones. They add specificity and tangibility. They define what success looks like in each area, translating qualitative aspirations into measurable achievements. They also enable us to track our progress towards the objective. They act as checkpoints and allow us to adjust our course as needed.

When we also break down our goals into subgoals, they keep us motivated. Smaller, achievable goals provide a sense of accomplishment, and by celebrating small wins, we are excited and motivated throughout the journey.

Timelines help us set the pace. They frame the duration for achieving our desired outcome. They give a sense of urgency and guide the allocation of resources effectively.

May you remember that the magic happens when these elements weave together. Objectives inspire, KRAs focus, goals quantify, and timelines drive action.

By clearly defining each of these elements and ensuring their coherence, you create a roadmap for turning your desires into reality within the planned timeframe.

May you always remember that the key to success lies in finding the right balance between ambition (objectives) and practicality (goals and timelines) while maintaining focus through clearly defined areas of progress (KRAs)

May you by striking the right balance keep creating bigger and better things and you keep achieving success and you keep enhancing abundance joy and well being in your life and your world.

May you keep living a life of creating magic everyday

One of these verses is Ashta siddhi Nav nidhi ke data, asvar din janki mata. This translates to – Mother Janaki, the conqueror of demons, is the giver of eight siddhis and nine nidhis.

Siddhi is derived from the Sanskrit root – Sidh, which means To Succeed or To accomplish. In yoga and meditation practices, Siddhis refers to spiritual attainments or realizations gained through dedicated practice and may also connote Mystical or Psychic powers.

The attainments, achievements, and successes gained through dedicated practices is mastering and controlling various powers or having them Siddh.

Nidhi is a sanskrit word that means treasure. The nine treasures lord hanuman possesses are Padma Nidhi – Lotus Treasure – Represents divine knowledge, wisdom, and purity. Mahapadma Nidhi: Great Lotus Treasure – Represents abundant wealth, prosperity, and material abundance.Shankha Nidhi – Conch Shell Treasure – Represents fame, glory, and artistic expression.

May you understand the eight siddhis and nav nidhis and by total surrender and devotion to the lord keep practicing whatever you want to master, own and control, and keep achieving all kinds of wealth to keep leading a rich and fulfilling life and keep enhancing joy abundance and well being in your life and your world.

May you lead a life of gaining powers and wealths every day

The last day of the year, therefore, is a good time for examination and reflection.

A happy joyous meaningful and fulfilling life is a progressive and growing life, where you keep becoming better version of yourself.

Growth could be seen in terms of material possessions, money, power name, and fame, and could also be seen as becoming a more compassionate wiser happier and better human.

As per vedic scriptures, all growth must be aimed at getting closure to the higher consciousness and ultimately becoming one with it , which is Moksha the liberation from the cycle of birth and death.

The last day of the passing year is a good time to take stock of your growth in the passing year both in terms of material gains and self evolution.

Reflection and examination become very important as that leads to becoming wiser to face the coming year in a way that furthur leads to greater growth both externally and internally.

Experiences we have are the raw material of wisdom.

It’s the events, relationships, challenges, and successes we encounter.

Without experience, we have no data to process or lessons to learn.

We live through triumphs and failures, navigate complex situations, and encounter diverse perspectives. Each experience leaves its mark, shaping our understanding of the world and of ourselves.

Reflection is the crucial transformative ingredient.

Mere experience alone doesn’t guarantee wisdom.

Reflection involves actively thinking about our experiences, questioning them, analyzing their causes and consequences, and drawing insights from them.

We ask ourselves, what went well, what didn’t. What could I have done differently. What did I learn about myself and the world. This inner processing allows us to extract the nuggets of wisdom from the raw ore of experience.

May you remember that the cycle of experience and reflection leads to spiral growth. The more deeply we reflect on our experiences, the more we learn and grow. Conversely, richer experiences provide more material for meaningful reflection.

This ongoing cycle of accumulating experiences and reflecting on them leads to the gradual cultivation of wisdom, and we prepare ourselves for bigger and better things in life.

May you remember that examining our lives encourages us to think critically about our assumptions, societal norms, and our own biases. This questioning can lead to personal growth, intellectual development, and a more informed and ethical way of living.

May through careful examination and reflection today you gain invaluable insights about yourself the social and financial arrangements you have managed for yourself and how they are serving you and how you can make them more efficient and effective to achieve better growth in the coming year.

And may you in the new year continuously keep creating better things and keep enhancing joy abundance and well-being in your life and your world.

Have an examining and refecting journey ahead

We are part of a grand cyclic design, where we are participants.

Nothing belongs to us, as even the air we breathe, we need to exhale.

And when we exhale, we’re not just returning air to the atmosphere; we’re participating in the cycle of life and nature.The air we exhale contains carbon dioxide, which plants absorb during photosynthesis, creating oxygen that we, in turn, inhale again.

Along with being participants, we are temporary custodians of the material world and the things and the relationships we possess.

Nothing belongs to us permanently.

The air which we inhale is temporarily with us. It belongs to us for that particular moment, and then we need to release it. In doing this act, we for a while own it and become its momentary custodians.

This body we identify ourselves so deeply keeps changing itself , the skin renews in average 30 days. The inner lining of the stomach renews in only about two days, and it’s said that we have a new body every seven years.

Just imagine the body which we identify the most with is also not the one which we had few years earlier or will have few years hence. We are just part of a cyclic natural system and custodians of a few things temporarily.

May you therefore remember that nothing belongs to us.

And when nothing belongs to us, then there is no need to have deep attachments.

This defies common logic.

The Gita, one of the vedic scriptures , explains this in detail and encourages us to keep living in detatchnent.

We are the custodians , temporarily, whatever we have is ours , but it will go away. Some will wither faster, and some will last longer, but perish it must as that’s the natural law.

Even our challenges , obstacles , failures things which seem to be troubling us , don’t belong to us permanently, they have come to teach us , make us stronger and its a feedback that we are not doing something right.

We will ultimately either learn and grow and change or accept if it can’t be changed.

We will see newer horizons , embark on more beautiful journeys, and keep being custodians of better and bigger things, and we will keep enhancing joy abundance and well-being in our life and our world.

We must learn to keep participating in the cyclic nature of the universe and keep being custodians of bigger and better things.

And, Buddha said, whatever the mind thinks and whatever the dominent thoughts are , they become things.

Imagine a scenario where a human mind always thinks of beautiful and useful creations and they keep becoming realities.

The problem with the human brain and therefore the mind is that its never at rest, its always on.

As per research its always operating at 95 percent of its potential, even when there is no visible activity or distractions in the front.

There is always tremendous background activity. As per research once externally idle , several parts of the brain ramp up activity.

All these interconnected parts of the brain are focussed on self-referential processes, such as recalling personal memories to navigate the future, feeling emotions, and evaluating incoming information.

The scientists called this process the Default Mode Network.

May you remember that this default mode network decides how you think and feel when you are left alone with yourself.

In loneliness most get fearful and worrisome and emotionally overwhelmed, however the ones who understand this basic nature of the mind and who consiously train their , this monkey mind to think positively, end up in self reflection and visualising a brilliant future when left to themselves.

Solitudes then become powerful moments of visualising and weaving the future of your dreams and desires and creating the magic you need in your life.

May you by mastering your mind keep visualising better things and keep making them a reality, and you continuously keep enhancing joy abundmace and well being in your life and your world.

Have a positively disposed Default Mode Network brain days always

Magic is something that beats the rational mind. Unfortunately, the rational mind is biased and conditioned and is predisposed and often prevents us from making magic happen.

This world has grown and flourished and has added useful and beautiful things due to many irrational fools who believed that something which has not happened ever can happen and those eccentric individuals who said why not to things which were not around and they went after making them happen.

May you know that magic is possible all the time.

Things that are improbable don’t mean that they are impossible.

Improbable things happen all the time because “improbability” is an illusion based on our preconceptions. Most of the times it has nothing to do with statistical truth.

The trouble is that we do not take certain actions which otherwise taken would have the likelihood of creating magic.

May you remember that people who make magic happen quite frequently always take action without being predisposed if those actions will bring result or not, they try and try as often as they can.

May you, therefore, remember that those who keep creating magic are the action takers irrespective of their biases and conditioning or prejudices.

May you become a creator of magic by having a bias for action and belief in improbabilities and going after your dreams and desires without getting trapped in rational limitations.

When you believe nothing is impossible, the sky is the limit for you, and you keep creating magic, and you keep enhancing abundance, joy, and well-being in your life and your world.

Keep building and living a beautiful life by beieving in improbabilities and taking actions to create magic everyday

The ordinary life is when one is able to provide adequately for oneself and one’s family, while the extraordinary life is when one is able to go beyond and serve others too.

The more one is able to serve, the more extraordinary a life is.

This all begins from self care. The first step is to serve yourself first , imagine a more healthy you, a more powerful and more connected and more wealthy you.

When you are more, you can serve more.

However, one must know beforehand what one is going to become in the process of being more.

The vedic scriptures provide a compass for this called Dharma , the path of righteousness, living life ethically, and with responsibility aligned with the highest universal values and principles.

The eastern wisdom also provides the foundation on which a successful growing and serving life is based.

May you know that an extraordinary life learns and practices to transcend pain and suffering.

May you remember that pain is a necessary and important element in preserving and maintaining life, which is contained in the body.

Pain tells you what’s wrong with your body, and either it self heals or you need to take available care for its healing.

According to Buddha, while pain is an inherent part of life due to physical and emotional experiences, suffering is the mental and emotional response to that pain.

He believed that suffering is caused by our attachment, desires, and aversions, which create a cycle of dissatisfaction and discontentment.

Buddha’s teachings are aimed to help individuals understand the nature of suffering, its causes, and how to transcend it by changing one’s relationship with pain and cultivating a state of mental clarity and equanimity.

An extraordinary life is built in spite of the mandatory pain and by transcending suffering

May you by understanding the impermanent nature of life including pain , keep transcending suffering and keep building an extraordinary life following your Dharma and keep creating the impact you are supposed to create on the world, and keep enhancing abundance joy and well being in your life and in your world.

May you always be living and building an extraordinary life everyday
