A good living, or to have control overyourself, one requires the right speech at the right moment. Based on direct perception, through our semsory organs, via the intellect, we create our world, but it is nothing until we know how to describe it. But, the more you know, the less you speak. Impulsive utterances, words coming out from the heart, or the choicest of words used through experience or as per circumstance, decides who we really are, reflecting our personality.

Reality is eternal, does not change or distort by time, space and individuality. Animal kingdom has no concept of time and space, whereas we exist in relativity. Like nothing is good or bad until we relate it to something. Anything that is relatively real appears to be real at certain times and also changes at other times. Since it is not real at all times, it is not real even when we think it is real or when it appears to be real. This is the delusion, where nothing can be taken for granted.

Life is a journey, go along with a purpose and not with a goal. If life is a goal, then it becomes a rat race, in this even if you win you remain a rat. A time comes when you aspire beyond materialism, beyond what mind perceptions are trying to tell us, to enter into a world of inner grace and consciousness. Where your mind perceives joy not only through sensory organs, but when our aspirations are given true recognition by acheiving victory and satisfaction within one's own self in the self.

To attain fulfillment in life one needs to synchronise the mind, body and beyond mind i.e. thoughts. The body can be dealt with the right diet, exercise etc., but we still require the correct balance for our physiological, psychological and philosophical balance to be in harmony with the physical, mental, emotional, financial and spiritual levels in our system. This journey that we all undertake seems easy, but in reality how many of us can confidently say I am happy and fulfilled.

Recently I read in the newspapers about the views given by Mr. Stephen Hawking on the subject of the origins of the universe, explaining "Because there is a law such as gravity, the universe can and will create itself from nothing. Spontaneous creation is the reason why the universe exists, why we exist. This prompted me to go deeper into finding answers to how does form take place, where have I come from, how particles do not come from particles, and all that exists is pure formless energy.

The body changes over time, The mind oscillates between past and future, likes and dislikes, the intellect is caught between choice, in every moment what to do and what not to do. Memory experiences loss and gain, Our belongings depends on the extent of our ego. But these are all limited identities, from where we are required to transcend into unbounded consciousness of the Self, into limitless energy,where we learn as to who I really am and our connection to God.
