2AM Thought

 Myself Anushka

 Got a random thought one night when i wasn't asleep, staring at the ceiling when my conscious mind thought of this question. Why do we offer plucked, fresh and healthy flowers to god and not those fresh and healthy flowers which fell on ground just a few seconds ago, once when fallen on the ground flowers are considered unfit to offer god. It's a kind of spiritual thought I wanted to ask somebody, since my grandparents left me, I don't have enough enlightened folks around me to give me a proper answer about this. I read somewhere, a soul takes 8.4 million births before taking their final birth as a human being. Liberation is only possible through human bodies as they are the smartest one. So, further strengthening my question, I come to another part of this, do we have a right to destroy a life? By plucking a flower from tree and destroying it's life, offering it to god, are we doing the right thing by being a mediator between that soul and god? When I was a child, my baa (grandma) use to take me to a Krishna mandir nearby. We used to offer him flowers, do kirtan, spend some time there and come back home. Sometimes she took freshly fallen flowers on the ground and offer them to god. When they were with me I wasn't that concerned about all this but now, when I lost few of my family members really close to me, they often show up in my mind, my dreams and my thoughts. I remember few moments of us together, just as memorizing this one, my thought process started a hunt for a satisfactory answer to this question. I haven't received any answers until now, even it's a huge confusion about what action to be done when one wants to offer god?

Goddammit just WRITE

 Myself Anushka,                    I have encountered certain similar events lately; there had been the same situation with different people, where we were discussing a little about our days, when I began to cast for my career or personal life, they heard, and right after, as a response or to cut my sentence, they began to talk dissimilarly to the discussion. At that moment, I was stunned by their negligence towards me; it was an eye-opener. I handled the situation stoically. After returning, I realized I should not share my thoughts at this random pace with people. Everyone in today's time is busy with their own hustle; they don't even care about anyone. Even I might have done this to some of them.                     My point is, what do you do when you want to speak to someone about your dilemma or just simply rant? I have witnessed people and even myself requestin...

Choosing between the two

-
 Myself Anushka,                         Got busy with my college lately, caught up soo many emotions, thoughts, doubts, fear and what not until I recollected that I-do-write. Which brings me here to write for a simple reflection from a number of happenings. If I ask you a certain question, what would you choose 'MONEY or KNOWLEDGE' with reference to your career. Now, lets break down your answers, if you fall under the category of choosing 'money', I assume you are not one of those for whom having cognition level is necessary, for such people, they have to be capable enough of having the skillset to fix in any work environment. So that they can start working at an early stage and make money of their own. This attempt gives a very good boost start to your career, you have experiences, strong grasping ability, optimistic attitude to work with what takes your interest, so overall you have a great start. Now the another quota,...

Do learn emotional control.

-
 Myself Anushka ,                       Existing among people is quite challenging when you don't have a control over your emotions. This thought came to my mind when I experienced such situations around me. Now, there are two people, one agrees with other's preference and the other one puts his own implication, even if he's not asked for it. Imagine a scenario, where you are showing something you like and the audience directly cuts you out with a nullifying statement, you weren't even asking for their opinion. I know, it feels distressed! That is how your mood gets ruined, the person who did this won't even realize. This puts a damper on your day and even wrecks the image of that guy for you. Ever experienced a situation, when you're in a great mood and someone explodes with anger on you? Again, i know how it feels.                        These are the little things w...
