Attitude is Everything!

 

Attitude is Everything!!


During the theory sessions for our paragliding course, our flight instructor had asked us what is the one most important quality one should have to be able to fly. There were several answers from the students and the correct answer was ATTITUDE. Because with the right attitude you will not only complete your course but also become a safe paraglider!

When we talk about attitude, there are several quotes which define this – ‘attitude is everything’ is my favourite. Why is that so? Simply because with the right attitude you can literally touch the sky, nothing is outside the realms of possibility – everything is achievable! Then what is the ‘right’ attitude you may well ask. Well, if you have a positive attitude and a nothing is impossible outlook then you are destined for great things in life. For instance, if you think your attitude is like a box of crayons and you select grey then your whole life is shaded grey – but if you select colour which reflect nature and life you can fill your life with colours of love, humour, laughter and achievement. Once you have these bright colours life actually lightens up for you!

Your attitude is the most important quality needed to be a successful, liked and admired person in life. Show positivity, humour, love, compassion and you will be well liked and admired. Along with the right attitude you also need to be humble and grounded, else your ego will take control and your attitude will turn into arrogance. That is something which one should totally avoid.

Your attitude is shaped by not only those close to you but also by the experiences you get in life. To have control over your attitude, to remain humble and grounded meditation is of great help. Meditation helps you see life from a deeper perspective. You get to literally ‘know’ yourself and once you do that you realise why you have the kind of attitude towards life that has been a part of you as you grew up from a child into an adult. Meditation helps sharpen your attitude along with compassion – so meditate.

Mahashivratri - Har Har Mahadev!

  Mahashivratri - Har Har Mahadev! Tomorrow is Mahashivratri – the day Lord Shiva was united with Shakti. It is held on the 14 th night of the new moon in the month of Phalgun (onset of summer) as per the Hindu Calendar. In honour and as a mark of respect and devotion, Hindus fast for the full day and night of Mahashivratri. This is considered to be the darkest night of the year and it celebrates the grace of Lord Shiva who is said to be the Adi Guru or the first Guru from whom the tradition of Yoga originates. Mahashivratri is celebrated throughout the country in various Ashrams by all self-realised Saints in the presence of their devotees – either in the physical form or remotely – this year due to Corona pandemic, this festival will be mainly celebrated online. We, the Samarpan Family too will be celebrating this online through the live webcast on the GuruTattva YouTube channel. All the devotees wait eagerly for this day as the energy is literally palpable and, in my experi...

  GSD view from afar Heaven in the Heat - Rajasthan Samarpan Ashram   Visit to Rajasthan Samarpan Ashram   Our visit to Rajasthan Samarpan Ashram had been in the offing for quite a long time. I had called Umeshji sometime in the middle of April and asked whether we could give Aradka a visit. He said he would be free after the 26 th and so we planned accordingly. Umesh Paiji and I had decided to give a surprise inspection visit to the Rajasthan Samarpan Ashram as per the guidance given by His Holiness Swamiji in May 2023 during his discourse at Mahudi. Accordingly, we had booked flight tickets, airport to Ajmer hotel transfers – both to and fro. Our visit was from April 28 and return was scheduled for May 1 – both Gujarat and Maharashtra Day! On the 28 th we requested Swamiji’s office to inform the Rajasthan trustee and the Administrator of our impending visit and the purpose of the same. The office informed Dr Manoj Sharma and Mr. Sundeep Sharma about our visit ju...

Talking to your Body Mind

Photo Credit: Pinterest Talking to your Body Mind In the labyrinth of our existence, there exists an unspoken dialogue—a conversation between our body, mind, and spirit. This discourse, often overlooked amidst the cacophony of daily life, holds the key to unlocking our innermost truths and nurturing holistic well-being. To embark on this journey of self-discovery, we must first quiet the noise of the external world and turn our gaze inward. As we delve deeper into the recesses of our being, we encounter the subtle whispers of our body and mind, each conveying its unique wisdom and insight. Our body, a temple of sacred intelligence, communicates its needs and desires through sensations, feelings, and emotions. It speaks the language of sensations—aches, pains, and discomforts—as messengers urging us to pay attention and listen with compassion. Simultaneously, our mind, the orchestrator of our thoughts and perceptions, weaves a tapestry of stories and narratives that shape our reality. I...
