God is in everything

Good morning friends.  It’s a very good morning to me as everything said, God is everywhere,  God is in everything.  I was reading an article of an actress and how she believed that God is really in everything.  Let me share it with you as it is a good one. 

Actress Eisha Koppikar believes God is in everything!  

You find God in…

“For me, my parents are true manifestations of Him. God is everywhere — in nature, in human beings, in animals. Once you feel connected with God, you begin to enjoy life. I can feel God all around me in everything that I do, everywhere I go and within myself.”

How do you connect to God?

“I feel connected with God on a one-to-one level. If I need something or have any doubts, I talk to God! Our conscience or the inner voice is God keeping us on the right path.”

Karma & kismat to you are…

“I believe in kismat and that one has the power to change it. Destiny is always in our own hands. I believe good thoughts lead to good habits, which lead to good actions. These actions, when directed well, lead to good intentions, which make you who you are and that leads to one’s destiny. I believe in karma. My dad always says, ‘Put your best in everything that you do and don’t worry about the results’. Our experiences are also based on our past-life karma. We must try to correct our wrongs and approach life positively. Karma and kismat are closely interlinked.”

True contentment lies in…

“I am no spiritual guru and am still trying to get there. Knowing you are happy can amplify your happiness. Once you notice that something is pleasurable, you can increase your happiness by savouring the experience. Whether it’s appreciating a particular moment, the beauty of a rose, a job well done, or a trait I love in someone, the little things make me happy.” – The Times of India

Don’t look too far for solutions (2 of 2)

The process of strategizing while solving a problem throws up many facets of ourselves that we never knew existed. Adversity has been a blessing often enough and ought to be respected rather than feared. Complications arise most often because we take things personally and too seriously. Surrender only destroys self-esteem. Fighting enhances it. The difference between the two is just a matter of attitude.

Helplessness is a state of the mind. Most successful businessmen and corporate executives are paid for their ability to keep cool in the most trying of circumstances. They probably begin where others stop trying. Fixing the blame is not what absolves one of failure. Fixing the problem is the only redemption.

Anger, fear, resentment and frustration only muddle neural networks. They are mere manifestations of the fight, flight or fright response. What is actually needed is a right, bright, and trite response. This response can only be attained with a calm and controlled thought process. Knee-jerk responses are just reflexes without any form of cerebration. They are most often fruitless. A deliberate, conscious effort needs to be inculcated to programme a conditioned response.

A positive approach is a big help, as it tends to activate the right brain, the one that has great intuitive abilities. The most appropriate response to any problem would be whole-brained. That is with both the right and left hemispheres giving their inputs. The dominant half — the left-brain in right-handed persons and right brain in left-handed persons – enables analysis, logic and assessment. It tends to be a fragmentary approach.

The right has a more intuitive, subtle and holistic approach. A combined two-pronged approach is much more likely to bring out the best in adversity — and make it easier for the butterfly in you to take wing. – The times of Indian
