Effects of Vibrations, thoughts on water



Let this blog find you among vibes of purity.

One of our favourite topics in our workshops is VIBES. Have you ever considered the strangeness & logic behind some of the following occurrences?

  • You think of a song and soon you find it playing somewhere
  • You think of a person and you get a call/mail from him/her
  • You go for a meeting/presentation, hoping that the flaw/weak point in it goes unnoticed. It is one of the first questions asked!
  • You can differentiate between real smile & plastic smile: without any formal training!!

These can be explained by the concept of vibrations. It is said that all our thoughts turn into vibes and reach all those who are connected with those thoughts. Vibes go beyond time & distance.

However best one pretends, we can always sense the true intent of a person. We have this in-built ‘authenticity sensor’ which receives the true vibes of a person. Our mind sometimes overrides the gut feeling/vibes and sooner or later we realize it!

A very interesting experiment was done in Japan by Dr. Masaru Emoto. The subject was on effect of thoughts on water. The results were later published in a book: "Messages from Water and the Universe"

Dr. Emoto exposed words: spoken & typed, pictures, videos and music to Water. After exposure for few hours, each sample of water was frozen and the crystal structure was photographed under a dark field microscope. The results were very interesting: some photographs are given here.

If thoughts can do that to water, imagine what our thoughts can do to us: up to 60% of our body is water!

Wishing you a prosperous new year 2013. May you discover many hidden talents of yours. May you connect with insights and inner power to make your dreams come true.

Power of internal dialogues and thoughts



Let this blog find you aware of your internal dialogues and the power behind your thoughts.

A friend gifted a book “Powers Within” – (Selections from the works of Sri Aurobindo and The Mother – compiled by AS Dalal.)

It is quite an interesting book and may assist you in travelling within as you explore your life.

Everything we think turns into vibrations and gets communicated to whoever it is meant to. We cannot tamper the original vibes. They go AS THEY ARE to the universe.

The excerpt below from the book is in line with this thought. You may find it useful.

--------------------
…Everyone has in him… the power to give form to his mental activity and use this form either in his ordinary activity or to create and realize something. We are all the time, always, creating images, creating forms. We send them into the atmosphere without even knowing that we are doing so – they go roaming about, pass from one person to another, meet companions, sometimes join together and get on happily, sometimes create conflicts… There are battles; for often, very often, in these mental imaginations there is a small element of will which tries to realize itself. Everyone tries to send out his formation so that it can act, so that things can happen as he wants and, as everyone does this, it creates a general confusion.

If our eyes were open to the vision of all these forms in the atmosphere, we would see very amazing things: battlefields, waves, onsets, retreats of a crowd of small mental entities which are constantly thrown out into the air and always try to realize themselves. All these formations have a common tendency to want to materialize and realize themselves physically, and as they are countless – they are far too many for there to be room enough on earth to manifest them – they jostle and elbow one another, they try to push back those which do not agree with them or even form armies marching in good order, always to take up the available room both in time & space….

So, individually, this is what happens. Some people do all that without knowing it – perhaps everybody – and they are constantly tossed from one thing to another, and hope, wish, desire, are disappointed, sometimes happy, sometimes in despair, for they don’t have any control or mastery over these things.

But the beginning of wisdom is to look at ourselves thinking and to see this phenomenon, become aware of this constant projection into the atmosphere of small living entities which are trying to manifest. All this comes out of the mental atmosphere which we carry within ourselves. Once we see and observe, we can begin to sort them out, that is, to push back what is not in conformity with our highest will or aspiration and allow to move towards manifestation only the formations which can help us to progress and develop normally.

This is the control of active thought…

How many times you sit and become aware that the thought is beginning to form images for itself, to tell itself a story?... when you have become a little expert at it, not only do you see unfolding before you the history of what you would like to happen in life, in your own life, but you can take something away, add a detail, perfect your work, make a really fine story in which everything conforms with your highest aspiration. And once you have made a complete harmonious construction, as perfect as you can make it, then you open your hands and let the bird fly away.

If it is well made, it always realizes itself in the end. And that is what one doesn’t know.

But the thing is realized in the course of time. Sometimes long afterwards, when you have forgotten your story, can no longer remember having told it to yourself. You have changed much, are thinking about other things, making other stories, and the first one no longer interests you. If you are not very attentive, when the result of the first story comes, you are already very far away from it and no longer remember at all that this is the result of your own story.

That is why it is so important to control yourself, for if within you there are multiple and contradictory wills --- not only wills but tendencies, orientations, levels of life --- all this causes battles in your life. For example, at your highest level you have fashioned a beautiful story which you send out into the world. But then, ... perhaps a little later, you have come down to a much more material level, and these things from above seem to you a little … fairy like, unreal… You begin to make very concrete, very utilitarian formations which are not always very pretty….and these too go out.

I have known people with such opposite sides in their nature, so contradictory, that one day they could make a magnificent, luminous, powerful formation for realization, and the next day a defeatist, dark, black formation – a formation of despair – and so both would go out. And I was able to follow in the course of circumstances the beautiful one being realized, and while it was being realized, the dark one demolishing what the first one had done.

That is how it is in the larger lines of life as in its smaller details. And all that because one does not watch oneself thinking, because one believes one is the slave of these contradictory movements, because one says, “Oh! Today I am not feeling well, Oh! Today things seem sad to me”, and one says this as if it were an inescapable fate against which one could do nothing. But if one stands back or ascends a step, one can look at all these things, put them in their place, keep some, destroy or get rid of those one does not want and put all one’s imaginative power … only in those one wants and which confirm with one’s highest aspiration. That is what I call controlling one’s imagination.

… And instead of being a cork afloat on the waves of the sea and tossed here and there by each wave, defenselessly, one becomes a bird which opens its wings, flies above the waves and goes wherever it wants.

THE MOTHER (POWERS WITHIN)
 ---------------------

May you become more and more aware of your inner thoughts and the realities they create. May you get mastery in tuning those thoughts to bring consistent laser quality energy vibes; which in turn materialize what you designed.

Prosperity, plentitude - some thoughts & learnings



Let this blog find you spreading light, joy & prosperity on this occasion of Diwali.

I had earlier written 2 blogs on relationship with money:
These thoughts are in continuation to that.

I had mentioned about the book “The richest man in Babylon” by George S Clason: Babylon became the wealthiest city of the ancient world, despite limited natural resources. This book explains how all the citizens became prosperous. Its concepts are still very relevant in current times. The king of Babylon once found that the economy is in doldrums. He was informed that no one has any money despite so much city development & construction work funded by the treasury. All the money has finally been channeled to very few people who are now very rich. The wise king, instead of taxing the rich people, called the richest man ARKAD. He asked him whether the art of making money can be taught. Arkad proposed to the king that he be given 100 people. He will teach them this art and they can then teach the entire city. That was how the city then turned into the richest city. This book contains many simple practical insights & teachings that are still applicable in our times:
  • How to come out from loan trap
  • How to manage finances well
  • How to be consistent in investing
  • How to honour your money instead of lending it out of obligations and pity

Some inspiring stories in this book include:
  1. Story of DABASIR, the trader who got into a debt trap, ran away from the creditors, got sold into slavery & finally returned to face his debtors and repay them all.
  2. Story of the ARKAD on how he became a rich man from zero, by utilizing the opportunities available. How he lost all his earnings initially and later learnt to invest appropriately.
  3. Story of a rich man who gave his son NOMASIR a pot of gold & a tablet containing 5 rules of wealth. The son initially lost all the money and later managed to recover and earn lot more using the 5 rules.
  4. Story of RODAN, spear maker, who got 50 gold coins as a special reward from the king (equal to 50 years net savings). His sister requested him to lend that money to her husband so he can become a merchant. How he learnt the logic of lending prudently.

Please do read the book if you can.

Inspired by this book, we have been discussing about how prudent management of personal finance becomes a critical factor in maintaining a glowing energy field in one’s life. Some very interesting examples were shared by some participants:
  • One participant was in armed forced many years back. During the early part of his career, his take home was Rs 650 per month. His food bill in the army canteen was Rs 300. His reporting officer reviewed his salary slip and asked ‘what are you doing with the balance amount? Start investing Rs 50 per month in Voluntary Provident Fund (VPF). He ignored the advice. Next month the reporting officer checked the salary slip again. This time he wrote on the slip: ‘Invest Rs 100 in VPF’. He also circled it with red ink. This probably was equivalent to an order!! The payroll person promptly came and told him, ‘boss has ordered that you invest Rs 100/- in VPF. Here is the form to sign!’ He signed. The deduction continued for many years. The participant shared with us that this single step led to a good amount of fund for him when he retired from the army. He is still thankful to his boss.

  • One participant’s boss used to always ask him and other colleagues: ‘How much money are you carrying in your wallet? Why so much extra? What will you do with so much cash? Keep the basic requirement and give the balance to me’. He practically snatched extra money from them. The boss kept all the cash in separate envelops in the name of each of the subordinates. Every six months, he will go and buy gold coins out of the cash accumulated. He used to give them the gold coin with a strict warning: ‘keep this gold safely.’ The participant shared that he had many gold coins due to this style and that formed a key component of his wealth.
 
Based on all the above learnings and the book, we conducted a session for a company which has 750+ employees. We asked them to select 15 key opinion makers in their factory from various levels & departments. A special workshop was conducted for these 15 people on:
  • How to be financial strong
  • How to practically track expenses
  • How to first invest and then spend
  • Various tips and methods to bring financial prudence

The team then discussed on practical ways on how each of them can mentor at least 10-15 people in their factory and ensure that each of them becomes financially strong. Many practical ideas came up. One immediate result reported by a participant is that after he conducted these sessions for his team, at least 20 persons have instructed HR to deduct 20% of their salary in Voluntary PF. These people wanted to do so for last 3 years but did not act. Magic has begun.

These examples may not directly suit you in current times. However it is still possible for a person to own up financial wellness of his/her team members and colleagues. That is why this mail has come to you. You may be at whatever level of financial prudence in life, you may also be at any level in your organization, you can still choose to play a role in bringing financial awareness and prosperity in people’s life around you.

We feel that in order to get best, heart level performance from your team you may want to actively encourage and handhold them to be:
  • physically fit
  • financially prudent
  • emotionally balanced with a progressive attitude

We have attempted this with a few people and got interesting results. The joy of seeing people prospering is priceless.

Wishing you prosperous times ahead for you, your family and your teams.

Warm regards,

Rohan
