Why are women gullible?

Women have always been a figment of men’s imagination. Our poets and authors have very well curved a niche to represent her-- beauty, talent, and godliness and with no doubt expressed it immaculately.

This reminds me of a saying now “A piece of beauty is a joy forever”. Does this “piece of beauty” make women more vulnerable to men? We know women loved to be pampered, protected, and have someone to rely on till the end; aren't these providing borderline to their own survival? They are submitting more to the ever dominating male species to solve their problems and to give them a sense of security.

Swami Vivekananda once said—“Who are you to solve women's problems? Are you the God that you should rule over every widow and every woman? Hands off! They will solve their own problems”.

I was quite impressed to what Swami ji said, he wanted women to be more independent, to do things more themselves, it is more of the brain power that you need rather than the muscles.

Now let me just put a question— 1) Do men take advantage of women?
                                                   2) Do women give advantage to men?
The questions are controversial. However, we know it always takes two to quarrel. Men out there of course take an undo advantage of women be it by physical dominance or by sex.  My question is why women at that time like to be treated the way?

Do they really have to bear the pain?

What are they scared of?

Why they pretend to be an effing little fragile teddy bear?

People will come out with numerous answers /solution to it, yet the domestic violence, rapes, and indifferences never seize to exist.

With the old Indian Tradition of “Pati being a Permeshwar” and the society demoralizing women for any achievement, triggers a lot of incompetence in behavour among women; as a result in the battle of the sexes women could be a very fickle competitor. At times she might compete the rat race, but at the end let the opposite sex win, perhaps the fruits she thinks is not what she desires.

Silly isn’t?

I would conclude my blog by saying a woman who comes out to the world should be well prepared to battle it, to save her honour and dignity because at the end if you cannot help yourself nobody can.

NEVER GIVE UP 


All The Best !!

An Experiment with Gratitude.



How often are we grateful to the world around us? Not much I guess....

As a child we were taught to thank— people, circumstances, and the Lord; perhaps the reason being a simple courtesy. However, the courtesy fades with time, we forget the most crucial need of the hour—“Gratitude”. Why?

We cry, we crib, we squabble on things we don’t have; but have we ever felt miraculous of the things we have? Very few indeed!

The Universe is abundant, rich with resources we’ll ever need. Nevertheless, the need becomes endless and we forget--we are abundant. I remember a quote, I read in Quran—
“Gratitude for the abundance we have is the best insurance that the abundance will continue”



Gratitude changes life, trust me!  Gratifying gave me abundance; in the midst of a difficult situation we always find a bit to be thankful about; find one, the second follows and so on all by itself and thus we are abundant again.

I always wanted to live as a kid, full of fun and profusion. We always had an imaginary friend we believed, played with it, we even had conversation back then. Life wasn't as controversial as it seems now. That’s because somewhere, somehow a bit of gratitude peek-a-booed through our desires.

Gratitude has always been the key to all the ailments we have. It does not really matter—“If a glass is half empty or half full, be grateful that you have a glass half filled with water and air”.

Feel gratitude from the core, the more you do it, the more love you create and with love comes abundance in life.

Try this simple experiment today— Call up someone, perhaps an important person in your life. Try (make a note--optional) thanking the person from heart for what he/she has done for you  
You won’t believe the remarkable experience you will get. I tried it--felt blessed. You should try it too. Best of your luck!

It’s time to get back to my burrow; I will be back with some more of my experience.

Thank You!

Cheers J

Happiness and You!

How far we go to find what we need? The path is incessant. There are numerous ways people define to be happy; in fact every individual has his/her own ways. However, the most general definition is – A state of mind which makes us content.

Come to think of it, do we really do things to make ourselves happy or feel content? 

Why the chase never ends?

Why do we look for something we are capable of getting instantly?


We humans are the most bizarre creature, mind it! And trust me, our intelligence play most of the trick.
The biggest dilemma of being happy is finding happiness in others and not within us. We tend to chase happiness forgetting merely to choose it. We forget -- we are the source of Universe.

Happiness in us does not depend on the approval, acceptance or opinion of others. We are not responsible for keeping anybody happy we are solely responsible for our happiness.

We often hear people say “I am happy, if you are happy”. Do you really think happiness is conditional? 

Being happy seeing someone brings happiness; however being happy because of someone’s happiness brings sorrow.In other words, we should be the reason for someone’s happiness not the cause of it. Being the cause brings misery.


The fastest route to find happiness is to stop searching happiness and to start being happy.
