The motivating power which has been most important throughout history of mankind is faith. Faith in us and faith in God is the only secret of exceptional contribution in this world. Spiritual world and scriptures make us believe that we are immortal spirits and enlightened self. This great conviction motivates and nourishes great action and paves path of conquering our minds maintaining the confidence in our day to day life. This faith is different from trust and hope etc. It is distinguished in some traditional folk stories.
Long-long ago in some ancient town, people decided to pray for rain after a long draught. On the day of prayer people gathered and one boy came with an umbrella. That is faith. If we see feelings of a newborn baby, only one or two years old, when elders throw him in air, he laughs because he knows you will catch him. That is trust. Every night we go to bed and in fact have no assurance of waking up alive the next morning but we still have plans for tomorrow. That is hope. These instances place hope, trust and faith on right juncture and proper order.
Let faith be attribute of strong and not the weak. It might be mixed with emotions but it is a firm decision every time. Let our faith drive our wellness.

Start the Journey
Slow tortoise, fast hare, clever cat, aggressive hen and proud peacock are always real. The logic of selfish and impure person is always dull. The body of creator is light and his spirit is truth, God is compared with fire and light because it rushes upward,purifies everything, has broad bottom and small tip, latent everywhere ceaseless and impartial. Light restores balance, sight and confidence.
Bergson and Hegel etc narrated that everything spiritual is speculative but Indian Philosophy takes it to be purely practical. Traditionally Indian seekers penetrated the veil. The truth cannot be expressed in words. The finite, in fact cannot contain infinite but it follows by actual personal realization. It is to be understood clearly that desire arises out of the life system of identification of the self with mind and body. We have to gradually minimize attachment diluting the sense of identification. When this journey is started the dry path starts witnessing the cool point and flashes of bliss and consciousness. This is what Jesus said "Not my will but thine be done". This bliss is consciousness of unpolluted calmness, it is devoid of contrast and excitement and it is really different from pleasure. It gradually extinguishes the anxiety and allows everything to happen as it is. Thus in due course of time we do not require change and stop wishing for it. It will also slow down the mind and discover infinite joy or bliss stopping the search of contentment outside.

Trap of Ego
After achieving all that we want in this worldly life, we never get fully satisfied with every aspect of our life. Lasting happiness and fulfillment remains far away from us. The thoughts of ownership and doership assemble to make our ego, which is generally precursor of pride and quite akin to our identification in the society. This ego separates us from rest of the world and consciousness as well as greater consciousness.
Even if all the 'If onlys' of our life and all the wishes of a particular moment are fulfilled and materialized, happiness can not be guaranteed. All the implements and sources of happiness gradually become source of depression. Those who search happiness in money, property, possession, investment or portfolio are pray to rude awakening of future making them deplorable.Wealthy are lonely and suspicious, fame of great people, when they stop delivering at a certain stage, makes them very unhappy.Those who love you let you down, leaving you more unhappy.Stimulants and recreations leave you mentally and physically weak and sick. Money in due course looses its value ,bankers do not remain trustworthy and security proves farce. Unless we get rid of undesirable manifestation of ego and we are not stuck in our opinion and imagination, peace and fulfillment remain impossible for us. Let us come out of this rigid belief system and trap of ego. Relinquishing the need to control and judgement we can go beyond our ego. Ego; it is said that changes angels into devils and humility again makes them God. Jealousy and unhappiness are youth stages of ego.

Contrast Mind
We should always forgive and love people because everyone is a replica of the same Creator. We have no business to judge His work and can only evaluate situations. Identity of every one of us is Ultimate Infinite Consciousness. If we start facing truth, every moment gives us a chance to create a new reality. This makes us capable of creating our own rules and values. We have to maintain our chord and never loose this spirit of harmony and creativity.
People who don’t believe in lies always remain away from any type of conflict in this world. Only to hide our ugliness and inner hollowness, stuffing of hope is done by us in our day today life. This is nothing but a defense mechanism, a farce ness caused by purely our imaginative nature. That is how the worthwhile life is lost and meaningless chasing of hopes is started and continued. It goes to silence the inner voice and makes the liar established in our unguarded mind. Thus the story teller enters our head and remains till the last breath.
The ancient Indian thinkers gave a technique of quieting the mind. It is established that enquiry gradually kills the mind because it is only a contrast faculty called mind, established on sheer farce ness. Thoughtful examination gradually breaks its pillar one by one and finally the roof is also crumbled, giving complete freedom as a bye product. It is freedom from slavery of undesirable manifestation of ego. The moment ego is disclaimed we start seeing things in a novel manner and bright light.

Terrorism and Corruption
We find that our present day life is full of excuses of different type. This automatically generates pessimism. Such an atmosphere is always against worthwhile actions and positive experiments. Moral blindness in this physical world is man made and easily avoidable, but inspiring want of power and wealth paralyze our subjective thinking as well as pursuit of satisfaction. Thus completeness naturally becomes impossible for us.
Conscious decision and concerted effort is capable of eradicating every illness of the society. Corruption and terrorism today are cosmopolitan in nature and habitat, which demoralize the creative aspects of society. These twin diseases are because of lack of transparency in our governments and society. Shaking the belief of people in goodness, the hope of right and justified to be done is badly mitigated by these factors. These are not problems because of inferior character of people and their criminalization but only degeneration and incompetence of institutions. These diseases of society are eradicable and only a will to fight all this is required. A simple method is to put all these old institutions under trial and substitute new people on the delivery points. A new set of people with highest integrity compensated for performance if given time and support of resources may change things in a very effective manner for general wellness of this world.
All the deformities of society and bad thoughts of the mind are like short time guests because purity, consciousness and piousness are true nature of the host. Bad things are so momentary that they always fail to make permanent impression. The evil remains for sometime in the society as well as human mind and gradually goes on causing un-comfort everywhere but finally perishes. It is rule of wellness of nature of course governed by consciousness.

Learn or Blame
Choice is ours; learn, develop and acclimatize the changes honestly or blame others for this and create resistance which is going to kill our positive energy for unlimited period. Victory of argument and logic is not going to solve our problem. Work is our ornament and continuous delivery of services as well as sustained learning process results in a self generating system and finally proves to be a reservoir of positive energy. When we react, let others down or become revengeful it gives us very deep wounds. Arrogance and anger finally end in disease, degeneration and suffering.
We should only concentrate on what is right, ways of being wrong and who is wrong is a negative exercise, an egocentric vicious circle. Fulfillment is there in developing and living, it is not there in winning. Service, apology and forgiveness bring us closer and our belief is capable of doing miracles. What we generally overlook, proves us wise because more you know, better you tolerate when such situations arise.
Every march of history goes to prove that all the fall-downs are only reference point and not the end. The business of world is only a sequence of change and nothing else. We should stop victimizing our own people, develop and encourage whenever there is opportunity, towards inspiring attitude of life and energetic living.
