भाइ! तिम्रो जीवनको उद्देश्य के हो ?

धेरै आफन्तजनहरुले धेरै सोध्ने गरेका प्रश्न– भाइ! तिम्रो जीवनको उद्देश्य के हो  ?

मेरो उत्तर– वास्तवमा जीवन खुद आफैमा एउटा उद्देश्य हो । जीवनको दोस्रो अर्को कुनै लक्ष्य/उद्देश्य छैन । बरु जीवनलाई– सद्विचार, सद्बुद्धि, सत्कर्म, सद्ज्ञान, सद्आचरण, सद्आनन्द र सद्भावसहित जिउनु भने महत्त्वपूर्ण पक्ष हो । जीवन नदीजस्तै हो, कुनै उद्देश्यबिना सतत सलल बगिरहने, बगिरहने । कुनैएउटा फल/फुलको बिरुवाको के उद्देश्य हुन्छ? कस्मिकइनर्जीद्धारा आफै वृद्धि हुन्छ, ठुलो हुन्छ, फुल्छ, फल्छ, झर्छ बास । कुनै उद्देश्य हुन्छ ? 

गौतमबुद्धलाई उतिबेला तपाईँको जीवनको उद्देश्य के हो भनेर कसैले सोधेको भए? के गौतमबुद्धले कुनै उद्देश्य बोकेर हिँडेका थिए ? उद्देश्य भनेको– हाँसिल गर्नु, प्राप्त गर्नु, लिनु हो । गौतमबुद्धले जीवनमा केही लिएनन्, बस दिए मात्र । त्यसैले, जीवन- लिनु हैन, दिनु मात्र हो । कुनै फाईदाजनक उद्देश्य बोक्नु त व्यापार भयो, जीवन त अपार छ । त्यसर्थ, जीवनको एउटै आफ्नै ध्यय भनेको– ध्यान, अध्यान र विज्ञानद्धारा स्वयं आफूले आफैलाई आविष्कार गर्नु हो ।

Eleven Secret Keys to Lasting Happiness

In the pursuit of happiness, it is a universal truth that every living creature desires to experience joy and contentment. Humans, in particular, often seek fulfillment through various means such as wealth, power, or physical pleasure. However, it is a common observation that even after attaining these desires, the happiness obtained is often fleeting or unsatisfying. The quest for lasting happiness remains elusive, prompting us to explore deeper and more meaningful avenues to nurture our well-being and discover true and enduring joy. Below, I have presented eleven secret keys to lasting happiness, drawing upon the wisdom gained from my 26 years experience of life.

1. Cultivating inner happiness through living a simple (non-materialistic) life  

In our pursuit of happiness, we often find ourselves trapped in the illusion that external possessions and achievements are the key to our contentment. However, true happiness lies within us, waiting to be discovered through simple living and embracing a non-materialistic lifestyle. By detaching ourselves from the constant desire for more, we free ourselves from the burden of expectations and allow space for genuine joy to flourish. When we prioritize experiences over possessions and focus on gratitude for what we already have, we create the foundation for lasting happiness.

2. Connecting with nature: A path to living blissfully

In our fast-paced, technology-driven world, we have become disconnected from the natural world that surrounds us. Yet, nature has a profound ability to restore and uplift our spirits. By intentionally connecting with nature, whether through walks in the forest, sitting by the ocean,  or simply observing the beauty of a blooming flower, we can find solace and rejuvenation. Whether it's gazing at a serene lake, finding tranquility in a garden, marveling at the vastness of the sky, or getting lost in the brilliance of the stars, nature offers countless opportunities for us to immerse ourselves in its wonders. We can listen to the enchanting melodies of birds, witness the graceful dance of trees, embrace the gentle kisses of the wind, feel the earth beneath our fingertips, or indulge in the refreshing sensations of a cold shower or a warm sun bath. Venturing into the depths of a jungle, trekking up a mountain, hiking through rolling hills, or cycling along open plains allows us to feel the exhilarating connection with the natural world. Even witnessing the beauty of a heavy rainstorm, listening to the symphony of thunderstorms and lightning, or simply being present in the moment, absorbing the sights and sounds around us, opens our hearts and souls to the profound serenity and joy that nature graciously bestows upon us. Through these experiences, we can truly immerse ourselves in the beauty and harmony of the natural world, finding peace, inspiration, and a deep sense of happiness. Nature reminds us of the intricate interconnectedness of all life and awakens a sense of awe and wonder within us, leading to a deepening appreciation for the world around us and a pathway to living blissfully.

3. Embracing mindfulness and the power of meditation

Amidst the busyness of our lives, finding moments of stillness and practicing mindfulness can bring us immense happiness. Meditation is a powerful tool that allows us to cultivate present-moment awareness and dive into the depths of our own being. By regularly setting aside time to quiet our minds and connect with our inner selves, we can let go of worries, anxieties, and regrets, finding a profound sense of peace and contentment. Through meditation, we learn to be fully present, embracing each moment with an open heart and a calm mind, thus experiencing the joy of simply being.

4. Nurturing loving connections and living in harmony

At the core of our happiness lies the quality of our relationships and our ability to love and be loved. To live happily, we must foster connections built on trust, kindness, and compassion. By treating others with respect, empathy, and understanding, we create an environment of love and harmony. Genuine happiness is found when we contribute to the well-being of others, offer forgiveness, and seek forgiveness when we have erred. When we live in a loving way, we inspire joy in those around us and create a ripple effect of happiness that reverberates through our communities.

5. Discovering the joy of the present moment

Often, we find ourselves dwelling on the past or anxiously anticipating the future, neglecting the beauty and abundance that exists in the present moment. True happiness is found by fully immersing ourselves in the here and now. By redirecting our attention to the present, we can savor the small joys, appreciate the simple pleasures, and experience a profound sense of gratitude for the gift of life. The present moment is where happiness resides, and by consciously anchoring ourselves in it, we can discover a wellspring of joy available to us at any given moment.

6. Embracing a lifestyle of forgiveness and compassion

Holding onto grudges and harboring resentment only serves to weigh us down and prevent the blossoming of happiness in our lives. To truly be happy, we must embrace forgiveness and compassion as guiding principles. Forgiveness liberates us from the burden of past hurts and allows us to heal and move forward with an open heart. By extending compassion not only to others but also to ourselves, we create an environment of acceptance, understanding, and growth, nurturing the seeds of happiness within us.

7. Cultivating financial freedom through consistent investing

Financial worries can often hinder our ability to live happily and be at peace. While money alone does not guarantee happiness, financial freedom can provide a sense of security and peace of mind. One way to cultivate financial freedom is through consistent investing, even if it is with small amounts. By adopting a disciplined approach to saving and investing, we can build a foundation for a secure future, alleviating the stress that financial instability can bring. This sense of financial well-being allows us to focus on the things that truly matter in life, nurturing our overall happiness.

8. Respecting and honoring each other's differences

True happiness flourishes in an environment of respect and acceptance, where diversity is celebrated and differences are honored. When we approach others with an open mind, free from judgment and prejudice, we create space for genuine connections to form. By embracing the uniqueness of every individual and recognizing the inherent worth and dignity in each person, we contribute to a world where happiness can thrive. Respecting and honoring each other's differences fosters a sense of belonging and unity, nurturing a collective happiness that transcends boundaries.

9. Living in harmony with the rhythm of nature

Nature operates in cycles and rhythms, and by aligning our lives with these natural patterns, we can experience a deeper sense of harmony and happiness. Just as nature goes through seasons of growth, rest, and renewal, we too can benefit from embracing such cycles in our own lives. By recognizing the importance of rest and self-care, as well as embracing periods of growth and transformation, we align ourselves with the natural flow of life. Living in harmony with the rhythm of nature allows us to find balance and contentment, fostering a sustainable and enduring happiness.

10. Gratitude and appreciation as a gateway to happiness

Gratitude is a powerful practice that shifts our perspective from scarcity to abundance, from discontentment to appreciation. By cultivating an attitude of gratitude, we open ourselves up to the countless blessings that surround us each day. Even in the face of challenges, there is always something to be grateful for. When we consciously acknowledge and express gratitude for the simple joys, the beauty in nature, the love we receive, and the opportunities that come our way, we invite happiness into our lives. Gratitude becomes a gateway to experiencing the fullness of joy and living a truly happy existence.

11. Embracing ecological responsibility through love and care for all creatures 

The intricate web of life is sustained by the interdependence of every living being, each playing a vital role in maintaining the delicate balance of our ecosystem. When we recognize and honor the inherent value of every creature, from the tiniest insect to the majestic animals, we contribute to the harmony and well-being of the entire natural world. By extending our love, respect, and care to all creatures, we deepen our connection to the greater tapestry of life. When we live in harmony with nature and strive to protect and preserve its diversity, we experience a profound sense of joy, knowing that we are part of something greater and nurturing the happiness that resides within us all.

In embracing these eleven secret keys to lasting happiness, we embark on a transformative journey towards a life of fulfillment, peace, and joy. By cultivating simplicity, connecting with nature, practicing mindfulness, fostering love and forgiveness, and respecting every creature, we unlock the true essence of happiness within ourselves and radiate it outwards, inspiring a ripple effect of positivity and harmony. May these keys guide us towards a life filled with authentic happiness, where we cherish the present moment and nurture the well-being of ourselves, others, and the world we inhabit.

Blogging: A Journey of Lifelong Learning, Memories and Growth

Blogging is a powerful medium that holds numerous benefits and possibilities. Firstly, it serves as a valuable tool for learning and sharing knowledge. When I initially ventured into blogging, my intention was to enhance my learning process by sharing information. This led me to start sharing Loksewa Questions and Answers as I was preparing for an Officer Level examination. Gradually, I realized the significance of writing in English to improve my language skills, prompting me to shift my focus towards writing most blog posts in English. This transition enabled me to cultivate my English proficiency and expand my horizons.

Moreover, blogging offers a unique opportunity to document our experiences and create lasting memories. As time passes, our blog becomes a treasure trove of moments and reflections. When we look back in the future, we can relive those memories and gain valuable insights from our own past. It becomes a personal time capsule, preserving our thoughts and emotions, allowing us to revisit our journey and growth.

Furthermore, blogging is a catalyst for continuous growth and personal development. By sharing our knowledge and insights, we not only contribute to the collective wisdom but also expand our own understanding. The process of researching, organizing thoughts, and articulating them in a blog post helps to deepen our knowledge and strengthen our critical thinking skills. It encourages us to explore diverse subjects and engage in lifelong learning. Through blogging, we connect with others who share similar interests, fostering a community where ideas and perspectives are exchanged, further enriching our understanding.

In essence, blogging is not just a means of self-expression for me, but also a powerful tool for personal and intellectual growth. It allows us to learn, reflect, and share our experiences with others. It becomes a record of our journey, an avenue for self-improvement, and a platform to inspire and motivate others. So, I encourage you to embark on your own blogging journey, as it has the potential to shape your life and contribute to your growth in ways you may not have imagined.

Dear friends! I am lost, yes I am lost in me

In the depths of my being, I find myself wandering, feeling a profound sense of being lost. Yet, I realize that this disconnection from the external world was a deliberate choice. It was my intention to detach from the distractions that surround me, to seek solace within. In this stillness, I have embarked on a transformative journey, rediscovering the essence of my true self.

Through the practice of meditation, I have found a path to inner peace and self-realization. Every step I take, every breath I inhale, is infused with mindfulness and intention. I walk in meditation, each footfall a reminder of the present moment and the profound interconnectedness of all things. I sit in meditation, surrendering to the silence within, nurturing a profound connection with my inner self and the universe at large.

Not only has meditation become a practice, but it has permeated every aspect of my life. I have learned to eat in meditation, savoring each bite with gratitude and awareness, recognizing the nourishment it brings to my body and soul. Even in the act of sleep, I find myself embracing a state of meditation, surrendering to the realm of dreams and the restoration it offers.

My purpose now extends beyond the material realm. I yearn to connect with the vastness of Cosmo consciousness, transcending the limitations of the physical world and the chaos of the external environment. In this process of self-discovery, I willingly lose myself to find a deeper meaning, a higher purpose that resonates with the very core of my being.

In this journey of becoming lost, I am actually finding myself. I am rediscovering the eternal wisdom that resides within, guided by the cosmic forces that surround me. It is a beautiful paradox where being lost in the world leads me to find an unbreakable connection to something far greater. And so, with each step, each breath, and each moment of meditation, I continue to embrace this blissful state of being lost, knowing that it is in this surrender that I discover true spiritual awakening.
