The Power Is in Being

Posted: Aug 23, 2010 |Comments: 0 |

Most people are so wrapped up in the illusion of constant doing that they forget the power of simply Being. Why is it the vast majority of people feel the need to always be on the go? What is so important about getting things done that you never take a few moments to simply sit in silence and enjoy the peace of conscious connection with true spiritual self?

Believe this, no-matter what items you place on your "To Do List," they will still be there waiting for you if you take a few minutes to enjoy the power of simply Being. It's the space between thought and action that holds the power of the Universe. If you are constantly on the go, that connection is clouded over by the clutter of the mind. When we sit in silence, we open up to higher self awareness and solutions come bubbling up as if by magic.

Constant thinking is way overvalued and can actually hinder the process of moving forward in life. If you are one of the many people that expend their energy worrying and constantly thinking about problems, consider there may be a better way for you to attain solutions to life's challenges. Many of the most successful people in history learned the power of Being early-on in their careers. Author Napoleon Hill in his book "Think and Grow Rich," which has sold over seven million copies and is still considered one of the most influential self improvement works of all time, interviewed pre-selected millionaires to discovery a common link to becoming a success. It took Napoleon Hill twenty years to complete his book, in which he describes the formula of becoming a success in not only business, but overall life itself.

While conducting his research, one of the most interesting insights Mr. Hill discovered was a process that an American industrialist used to assist himself in becoming a multimillionaire - it was to sit and be still. He called this process "Sitting for Ideas," where he would sit in a small room with nothing more than a desk, chair, tablet and pencil. He would sit in solitude and wait for ideas to come. In reality what he was experiencing is meditation, freeing his mind of thought and allowing the Universe to consciously bring awareness to challenges and providing solutions. This American industrialist knew there was a greater power than him, which could manifest solutions to many of the business challenges he faced on a daily basis.

Therefore, the next time you feel there is a challenge in your life that is far beyond your control, perhaps it would be worthwhile to explore the power of simply Being by sitting still in meditation.

    When I first became a Holistic Entrepreneur over five years ago, I really had no idea what I was getting myself into! Having worked for several years in a corporate job doing something I didn't love, my soul was seeking something greater. I knew that there was something much bigger for me out there, so when it came along, I was ready to embrace it. Like many practitioner's, when I discovered holistic health and

    Amongst the many energies of Almighty God Gayatri Super Power is very important and priceless. That scientific method by which one imbibes gigantic amounts of Gayatri is called ‘Upasana' or devotional practice. If devotion to Gayatri is based on a sound scientific footing a great deal of Gayatri Super Power can be imbibed by us all. Anybody in this world who gathers more and more wealth (legally), good health, knowledge, skillfulness in art/sculpturing etc is given a high status in society.

    Gayatri, Gita, Ganga and Gau (cow) are the 4 pillars of Indian culture. Amongst these Gayatri reigns supreme. All Hindu scriptures, sects, Rishis etc proclaim in unison that Gayatri has a deep import and message for world humanity. In Atharva Veda (19/71/1) Gayatri has been eulogized wherein it is said that Gayatri meditation blesses its devotee with a long healthy life, a strong vital force (Prana), divine energy, fame, wealth and God Realization.

    The investigation of Kundalini (Divine Serpent Power) commences with the discussion of the philosophy of Gayatri Mahaprajna. Fundamentally Gayatri worship is an experiment of religious ideology and divine sentiments. In it self-research is given chief importance and by generating devotion through meditation/ concentration, the Brahmic consciousness is brought closer and one’s psyche gets interwoven in it.

    The inner movement of bodily organs is dependent on the subconscious mind. Good or bad habits are gathered in this area. Depending on our hopes and aspirations, the motor of our life moves in either a good or bad direction. It is the subconscious mind that decides the nature of our body, its attraction, its strength and skill. It is unknown powers that decide our destiny. The creator of this mysterious unknown personality is the subconscious mind, which directs all movements of a living being.

    The ego can be very clever and can manipulate in more ways than you could ever imagine possible. And that in itself is the secret to living with the ego. What is presented by the ego is always imagined and never true reality. The stories contrived by the ego will always be focused on past or future moments, but never the present moment. The ego knows that if you are living your life based upon the present moment it will lose control over you.

    The main purpose for being here is the same for everyone…to discover self and merge ego with the Soul. All the other form based by-products of that discovery are nothing more than an examination to consciously illustrate your current level of energy vibration. Therefore, how you perceive life is continuously guided by higher self; whether or not you listen is based upon free-will and level of faith.
