S33: #ThankingThursdays / GRP

Bye Bye 2020, Thanks a Lot..

And Good to See you 2021!!! We Welcome you into our lives.

Dear G-ders wishing you a Happy New Year 2021 Ahead!!

A positive Attitude can get us to a certain Altitude, and when we reach a plateau its Perseverance with Gratitude that can keep us there and take us higher, further in our Life Journey.

Thanks giving is a culture of honoring all contributions and contributors in our life.

Which is the most Thankful-grateful commandment in the ten biblical commandments?

Iobserve it may be ‘Honor Thy Parents’@Ephesians 6:2 (Biological+NonBiological)(Sri Krishna, Sri Rama)’, as a gratitude for all that they have done for their children. When children are grateful to their parents’ pure/selfless and unconditional contributions the children get opportunities to rise up to their natural mode of goodness, reach an abundance mindset and create further harmony in their lives & environments. (Exceptions: Maybe unfortunate, historic orphans, abandoned/abused/alienated/arrogant childhood care in cases of situations, Narcissistic Biological/Tragical Traiting/trainings)(Eg. Karna, Moses)

This resonates with a south Indian saying, Matha-Pitha-Guru-Daivom (Meaning Mother-Father-Teacher&God is the sequence of reverence).

List of our Gratitudes for 2020.

1. Gods Grace, Our family having two second lives. parents having both been out from ICU, after Covid Scare. My Prayers for Krishna, Jesus & practicing Budheartful-Meditations were answered I feel so ever grateful.

2. Our extended Family and friends praying and supporting us for our well being during prevention, hospitalization and slow recovery. I cant thank them enough for in the coldest and darkest of hours it was the the candles(Dearones & their wishes) which gave us the light and warmth to keep us going.

3. Not many covid cases in our neighborhood. We are wishing/praying daily and sharing Covid Health info of prevention in various groups.

4. We as a nation faced so many challenges this year(Covid, Chinese, Pakistani agression) Indian systems going haywire but managing to survive

5. Thankful to have started blogging, Its good space of expression of love for ideas, words and writings. Also grateful to write & grow, Philosophers, RITers, MHTians and Actober group to be a motivation to write and share myself.

6. Thankful to the home where we cud have a small terrace & ground garden area, were we harvested a variety of vegetables.

7. Grateful for the nearby lake walkway for the family walks and long runs in the jogging track.

8. Grateful for the wonderful co-Sharers of various groups like SGMeditation, BuTEA, HumaRA, LAN(x) Wewadh-GD3, BKA, HTN, BTN, JOYn, MHT.. and many more . I have learnt a lot & benefitted in multiple ways from the sharings in the group. I am inspired by the grp members concern and care for the focusSubjects(Health, Meditation, Careers, Heritage, Languages etc) others.

9. Grateful to Bengaluru and Bengalureans for the community of citizens and atmosphere we create here, inspite of so many challenges we all still stick together and move ahead.

10. Its this magical spirit in many around, that makes us grateful for 2020 and hopeful for 2021.

Wishing all on completion of a very eventful old year 2020 & a Very Joyful new year 2021 ahead.

Thoughtfully Yours,

GRP

Week 2: #TruthfulThurdays.

Today I vow to speak the truth come what may, whatever questions are asked I shall answer in most truthful way.

#ThoughtfulThankingThursdays

Breaking Happens by Chance, Healing happens by choice. /GRP (7/1/21)

#ThankfulThursdays

Thanking all the people who were/are/willbe connected with us in our lives. For there are reasons why people come in our lives and those may sometimes be the very reason why people go away from our lives. But the only reason why people stay is the “Unconditionality” in them or commonality in us. They need no reason to be there for you except the reason is themself. Thanking all people unreasonably caring about relationships. Those who see the ‘me’ in others.. the others in ‘me’. That ALL is me only.- GRP

great people are grateful people.

When People Fall or fail. Observe these responses in people around. 1. Watch it happen silently 2. Laugh and mock the phenomenon 3. Laugh and mock at the person. 4. Walk to and help the person up. 5. Walk away and wish it never happened. 6.. 7…

S32: #WeedingOutWednesdays /GRP

It helps to practice detox, heightened efforts of removing ills from our lifestyle & character. Here is an attempt at weeding-out the mind-garden on Wednesdays, for the clarity of fruitful & beautiful mind-orchards.

There are useful ideas and thoughts collated here which may be common knowledge but which can be highlighted & realized, only with ‘personal, deep, reflective & empathetic thinking‘. Which many of us arent trained for in our formal education nor can these come from casual superficial experiencing. Sharing here for my dearest G-ders.

These are few realizations I have had from Family & friends/the minds who cared to share. What in our lives may be small-inner choices making large-outer differences.

Week-1: 31/12/2020

There are proper(Good/best practices)(Useful Plants) and improper Concepts(Ignorant/worst practices)(Weeds) and varied ways of doing things. Untill we know both/all sides we cant know the difference, which helps to choose the best way or approach. Here below are few recommendations for weeding out wrong practices on Weedlessday. Minor Changes can have Major Impacts(Butterfly effect). Clearing out the few small weeds can be a good deed for many big plants(Gutter-fly effect/GRP :))

1. While seated on a chair, is the habit of Crossing our legs good or bad for health?

A: Its common behaviour to cross our leg when sitting on a chair but it harms in many ways, it can cause a temporary increase in your blood pressure and lead to poor posture. Its especially dangerous for fertile men as it may raise the heat & pressure in the groin area and effect their sensitive reproductive system, leading to male infertility. BETTER Solution: Sit up straight with the legs positioned straight(no laptop obstruction) and we may cross legs safely at the ankle. (Idea Courtesy: Sidhha Guru on TV & Alexander Technique) Grooming tips for the groom/GRP.

2. The Shirt we tucked in our pant is visible , but what’s to be done with the inner wear the vests(Baniyan) we wear, is it to be over the innerwear under shirt or tucked in boxer/brief? Which is better & why?

A: Its good/better to tuck our vests in the brief/innerwear as the movements of upper body tends to bring the vest in an awkward way around the waist. Tucking in the briefs gives a manageable waistline and appearance. Also raising our hand (Idea courtesy: Karthik.B)

3. Line of shirt in the front to be aligned with zipline of pant for better aesthetics.( ICourtesy: KB)

4. Its better to keep the home UPS inverter system outside our homes compared to inside as it clears useable floor space and reduces acid vapour exposure for internal environments. (IdeaCourtesy: Ar.Venkatesh).

5. Improper innerwear can effect a persons health Bra size and womens health (IdeaIntroduction in msg by Priti.Patil in Ri-hab(Right Habits) Group)

6. Brief or Boxers which is better choice for mens health? and their families future.( A. Boxers are safer choice for male fertility and sperm count). Tight briefs and thick jean pants in summers or hot environment are sperm killers, also air tight VIP frenchies create a sweaty and moist environment for rashes, yeast and fungi infections. (IdeaCourtesy: Male Ayurvedic Doctor at J.B Nagar/Blr) Here is a informative survey on this question.

Do share any common sense idea you think you know should be common knowledge but you observe that many may not know as it’s not told or shared formally, which can be usefully highlighted here.

S31. #TuningTuesdays /GRP

1. Being in tune with the music of our heart and dEARones hearts is an art of the heart and our ears.

2. It takes years of practice for the ears to learn the subtle difference between the notes and chords.

3. Our ears hear a lot of eternal noises during the day and for some its internal noise too.

4. How do we filter these and be in tune with ourself and our hearts music(beats -Rhythm)?

5. I think this is by being open to listen to everything thats happening around, but also choosing to Object, Accept, Reject, Deflect or/and most importantly Reflect using logic and synthesis, we may find resonance and reduce the cognitive dissonance in self & others.

6. Filter through the noise and we can find the music. We need to deal with the dirt & thorns to see the Rose’s. Here is an opportunity & way we can be tuned to play our part in this big symphony and orchestra of life.

7. How to reduce the noise & see the music better. Or See through the darkness and a light, similarly we experience the noise & music around too.. in case of noise of media and gossip we can see a way out here. https://www.allsides.com/media-bias/how-to-spot-types-of-media-bias

8. Which marriages are made in Heaven & which are not? Real adages and marriages are made in heaven when they are matched with lot of good decisions backed with more godly insights & guided by supportive efforts of characters. On other side the false adages and marriages are mad in hell when mis-matched with few bad choices blacked by more dogly in-fights & misguided by destructive defects of character.

9. When guided by right logics one can find success, while misguided by fright and tragics one can find ruckus. What is that we are searching for logic or magic.. that is what we will see.. We will See what we are See-king. Seek for the truth, seek for peace, seek for tuning on #TuniningInTuesdays.

10. Bandages are made in heaven, as they help2heal (Halal). While damages are made in hell as they hurt2harm (Haram). Inshah Allah if all are in tune with the almighty heart, the world will surely be a tuned place. #TuningTuesdays /grp

11. I am a born Hyderabadi, my hydra like tentacles of neurons spread far and wide across the mindscape, to gather for the heart loving insights messages which bring ordered filtered music to the mind & my G-ders tired off hearing and tolerating the noise of the world. Be in tuned for insights which are hidden in plain sight.

12. I am a conditioned Bengalurean trying to lure people into an utopian dream formed by groupspaces of rationalism(Wewadh) and egalitarianism(HumaRA). A beautiful symphony of truth and harmony which heals many and doesnt harm any.

S30: #MotivatingMondays / GRP

1. We can be those leaders we always needed in our lives. Developing & making the higher self as the Guru in us, it can be a closer mentor to the lower self. Being the mentor we want for our self’s growth. appo deepo bhava. Here is a Motivational Video.

2. Who are our leaders? Leaders are ones who are fearless to be peerless in staying ahead of their old-self each day. Ones who think and link things to oneself such that it benefits every others selves. Ones who may have the principles of the great poet akka mahadevi to have & practice intellectual openess & nudity. And the guts of Socrates, and da Vinci’s invincibility.

3.Honesty is Transparency. To be able for the others to see all that is and what can be. The Naked Truth(Sat) is a Bitter medicine to cure the mass in maya(illusions).

S29: Rare Tips For Daily Living

1. We live Life one day at a time.

2. Morning Tips; In Summer Use a Lemony/Sandal Soap for oily skin and in winters use Moisturising & Oily soaps for dry skin(Glycerine).

3. Morning Tips: Drink a Gut cleanser first thing in morning.. Lemon juice, Amla juice, Orange Juice or ACV is good. To stabilize ALKALINITY OF OUR BODY.

S28: #SattvicSaturdays /GRP

At our home we follow a Family culture of being ultra-Vegetarians on Saturdays.

I never understood the logic as a child as I never questioned or thought about it deep enough. As to why all members at our home as well as our relatives need to be purely vegetarian(Plant+Dairy Based Diet) on Saturdays. I may remember the words of my parents telling me it’s a spiritual day dedicated to Lord Vishnu and we need to visit a Vishnu temple for prayers on this day. Also as our community our grandparents and relatives are Vaishnavas by lineage we need to follow this strictly.

And another Satvik influence in a strange coincidence is I studied and was encouraged in a satvik way at a protestant Seventh Day Adventist School(Saturday-Sabbath)of Bengaluru. Where I heard teachers promote benefit of vegetarianism also we had a speech contest in which I spoke (With mentoring from a beloved teacher Mr.Singh K Anthony Sir(Maldives), He saw something in me which I nor anyone in my circle did. Sir thank you for your coaching you were the best Bio-Science Teacher). He mentored my speech on the topic is “Vegetarianism a boon or bane”. I did lil research on the topic with my parents(Docs) as well as wrote a note which SingK sir upgraded. I won the second best speech on my debut extempore on stage it was a pleasure to win. Also won an Essay Writing Contest in the same Temperance Contest.

Its pleasing to have these trophies on shelf at home as encouragement to Speak and Write.

I was encouraged to follow veganism by Runner Arun @IISc also by my laughter yogaTherapy colleagues Tiffany Floyd(Indiana-US) and Inna(Frankfurt Gmny).

So I believe I’m at my Satvik Best on Satvik Saturdays. As my energies are focused on spiritual satisfaction.

By following spiritual Saturdays, helps me being a Veganish Reducetarian on weekdays and on some Saturdays even going on a one meal fast.

GRP-GeneralRhetoricPoetry

Saturday is the day for sattva,

Satvik is the way for saturation,

Practicing it we know the mehatva,

Stoic is the way of satisfaction.

This Day (26/12/20) I hereby launch a new idea to improve the satvicness of my life by promoting #SatvicSaturdays. To know more do read my PRASADH health Model Post.

9/1/21(Sat) Yesterday saw the trailer of a kannada movie KGF2.. and 3 weeks back while riding bike as I crossed Swami vivekananda metro station I had a thought on a dialogue from the movie “Powerful people come from powerful places”. I had a question so what about powerful places? Where does it come from rather who creates it. Then I related that powerful places are created by powerful people. This is exactly what I heard yesterday in the trailer.

And I dared to question a step further how are powerful people created or what creates powerful people? I got an answer its Powerful Principles that create Powerful people first internally which manifests externally.

What are the principles and values that define you my dear G-der.

The values which I want to define with self are Genuineity, Rationality & Prosperity(GRP).

GRP.

S27: #OurSocialSundays/ GRP

How can being in sharing GRPspaces contribute to our community’s Health?

Break Isolation and loneliness: Our Social Sundays can be the path to GRouPiness (Group’s Happiness), Health of relations and wealth of Information.

You may scroll down if already read once to latest dated writing on the GRP-wall.

Q: How do we make Sundays Fundays.

A: By Increasing the Quality & Quantity of Family & Friends’ Time.

Why are Sundays holidays in most places & Organisations?.

Though the start may have been religious, there is a functional and beneficial aspect for it, A day in a WEek ‘we’ become ‘ek’ One.. Its for us to take special care of our self, Family and social life, so that we may have extended shelf life together.

We are social beings, no matter where or what one is doing they are dependent on someone for somethings. The degree of dependency varies.

The position an entity takes can be positioned on the spectrum of less dependent to more dependents similarly the people dependent on the entity also varies from less dependents to more dependents. Also the quantity and quality of dependencies varies.

Now an interesting question arises with regards to a ratio Dependers(the people entities the person can depend on)/Dependents(The people dependent on him).. this would give us a view of the interdependency. The more there is equilibrium-balance the better it is for the entity and the system.

As a child a new entity has lot of dependers and less dependents. As it grows its level of dependents may increase and reach a point of more dependents similarly the dependers if there is a imbalance where he can depend on(get support from) others and not more people are depending on him(Expect his support) or vice versa where he has less people to take support of and not many taking support of him. It’s not an optimised state. For a good outcome for the system the give and take of support and systems if having a free flow where the entity does think of self and others equally if not more would be great for the society.

I have received a great lot of information, Knowledge, experiences and wisdom from a great lot of others and this may be a way to give back for the next wave. I am grateful and I hope this post may spark some interesting thoughts in our minds, emotions in our hearts and moves by our strides.

The one thing for a good life that matters most for all be it Elon Musk or the homeless persons in lifes dusk it’s the ‘Human Connections‘. Whoever we have been, whoever we are, what ever we will ever be depends on the Good Connections we make with ideas, people, places or principles. Here is an idea you may connect with to reach in & reach out for others in our groups.

I invite you and our connected-ones TO SOCIALize on SUNDAYS. BREAK our ISOLATIONs, Celebrate Together #TheSOCIALSundays for our group’s and community’s health and wellbeing. The evidence for same is given at the end.

Greet Someone, Meet Someone, Tweet for Someone, or BrowBeat Someone.

Reconnect with selves TO Rejoice together.

Socialize at right groupy spaces to Realize light happy faces. 🙂

Goem on Sundays,

The day starts with the rising sun,

The week starts at the Sunday run,

The journey of the next 7 miles ahead,

Starts today with the first smiling tread.

10/1/21(Sun).

1. Being a child of two docs I learnt early how to feel the pulse of a being by placing my finger on the veins, in the same way, in my growth journey I learnt how to feel the pulse of a group by placing the fingers on the ears.(figurately-hEARts)

2. Those who only Monetize in life will realize their individualistic dream, and those who Socialize only can realize our collective dreams. (Richest man in India Vs Richest Man in the world(Elon Musk), (Citizen Kane Vs Mahatma Gandhi)

3. Powerful people come from powerful places(KGF-1) ok, & Powerful People make places Powerful(KGF-2).. but what first creates powerful people?.. I believe.. powerful principles create powerful people..(all the G-Words Values, Empathy, Focus, Willpower, Persistence, Determination for the nation etc)

S25: Adding to An Adage: for our Useage. Idealines GRP

Amusing musings that minds ping & hearts sing in this orchestrated music of lives.

an effort to redesign these old thoughts and quotes (which are assumed to be true or Rational) to create a fresher sense in current contexts. Many a times an adage a content has a context and a conditions applied. This post is to highlight those ideas in fine prints so we have complete knowledge of each adage.

1. One doesnt have to FAKE IT TILL YOU MAKE IT, just have to ‘take’ it till you make it.. Take on the efforts, responsibilities, hardships, Identities all that has to be done for it. Let’s do it.

2. Every dark cloud has a silver lining, only when the sun is behind it.

3. All people and Ideo-Systems(Religion and idealogies) are good, except ones who/which crave obsessively for power, wealth, centralization and domination.

4. “There is light at the end of the tunnel“, only if the tunnel has two sides. If it has two sides then the light is behind you, take a U-Turn. Take a restart to find a different tunnel with 2 sides or shovel through the dirt for freedom.(ShawShank Redemption, Sureshot Redemption)

5. “Love is Blind” and in some cases makes people deaf and dumb too, in which case It’s not love its lust(Reptilian Brain Activation of Lower gland).. actually I believe “True love is all seeing” and all sensing(NeoCortex+Pineal Gland). It can make us get highest ecstasy, not dependent on lower orgasm but on higher organisms and organic-isms.

6. Our childhoods we may have played “Ages of empires” in adulthood we are seeing the “Ages of Vampires” with no neutral umpires.

7. “Satyameva Jayate“, Truth only triumphs when more Selfs standup for the truth as a whole. If majority chose not to stand behind the truth then they push for “ASATYAM EVA JAYATHE”. Whatever be the situation I hold the deeper satyam is that “Sattvam+Satyam eva jayathe” “Goodness and Truth triumph together at every point”.

8. ‘Ignorace is bliss by chance’ for a child but for an awoke ‘Knowledge is power to create bliss by choice’.(16/12/20)

9. Ignorance and ignoring are paths to Suffering(for self or others)” while “Awareness and sharing are the keys to Prevention, Recovery & Awakenings as a society.

10. A penny saved is penny earned, while a good thought shared is a good lot earned. Pennies or Money is the currency the petty cash and the larger economy runs on mighty trust and trade. Where an interest invested is an insight earned.

11. Silence is golden for an abuse to take place, it’s the silence of the lambs the wolves encroach, ShoutOut is golden for a rescue to take place, it’s the voice of the lambs the shepherdog encourages. Wakeup, Showup & speak up.(16/12/20)

12. Many say love is blind, I see True love is not blind, its false love which is blind, True Love with integrity integrates, Fake Love/Lust for Flesh with falsity disintegrates. (16/12/20)

13. Love is not blind, love is blinding when its lower case physically lusting love, LOVE is eyeopening when its in Higher case Spiritually lasting LOVE. (16/12)

14. Q. What is right, Opposites Attract or Same feathers flock together? GRP-Ans. When seen locally Opposite poles attract in case of complementary two parts(HeteroOrientation) or two minds(HomOrientation). But eventually when seen at another scale globally birds of same feather flock together. (On a spectrum between +ve Empathic Egalitarians & -ve Narcissistic Nepotists).(7/1/21)

15. The Truth shall set you free (Bible John 8:31), yes but who will set the truth free first?

The truth will set people free only when people shall set their truths free first. Until truths are held captive in peoples hearts & mind, people will still be captives of lies. So when we with freedom shall set our own truth free. It will in turn set us the people free. Resonant Truth(Satyam), Resounding Goodness(Satvam)

16. Let us have Unity in Diversity.. only when there is sense of community in diversity, if the majority wants conformity in monotony, then there is Unity in monopoly. THERE IS OPPORTUNITY IN DIVERSITY FOR HARMONY.

17. Udyogam Purusha Lakshanam, _y_y_gam Mahila Lakshanam.? Incomplete & genders biased.

Udyogam Purusha Lakshanam was encoded in the ancient Script, can be revised fro 2023.

Instead of blame game.. we can start the change game

17. Manasu Idhare Marga, Kanasu Idhare Swarga, where there is Will there is a Way, Where there is Dream/Aim there is Heaven. Yelli Guri Alli Manasu, Where there is a goal there will be Will.
