If we start observing closely to our day to day life then we will find that Human life is deeply intertwined with fear. While physical fear is necessary and is required to protect our life—such as escaping a predator or avoiding fire— psychological fear is of a different nature. It is not rooted in immediate physical threat, but in thought, memory, and imagination . To understand whether psychological fear can truly end, we must first understand how it arises.Why must we understand something before trying to escape it? Because one cannot truly avoid psychological fear without first seeing its roots clearly. If we try to push it away without real understanding, we only create inner conflict. Negating fear by sheer will—saying “I will not be afraid”—does not dissolve fear; it simply hides it temporarily. And whatever is suppressed returns with greater force, bringing anxiety, tension, and stress. Therefore, let us first inquire into the nature of psychological fear, observe how it begin...

Human life often moves between short-lived pleasures and deeper, lasting growth. Modern neuroscience and ancient philosophy both suggest something striking: the mind does not grow in a smooth, endless stream but in steps — like the quantum leaps that Max Planck discovered in physics more than a century ago. Planck’s Quantum Revolution: The Staircase of Energy In 1900, Max Planck showed that energy is not continuous but released in discrete packets called quanta. This idea solved the problem known as the “ultraviolet catastrophe,” where classical physics wrongly predicted infinite energy at higher frequencies. Instead, energy moves like a staircase: electrons jump from one level to another, releasing or absorbing light along the way. Niels Bohr extended this view, explaining that electrons exist in fixed energy levels . Stability in the universe comes because nature works in steps, not in chaos. "Energy is not infinite in its flow — it comes in steps, and so does hum...

The Destructive Nature of Thought History shows us a troubling pattern: human thought, when unchecked, often leads to destruction. Kings, conquerors, and even modern scientists have proven that mankind races toward power and knowledge with all its might, while morality usually arrives only after devastation has taken place. By then, regret is all that remains. The intoxication of ambition Ambition always feels noble at the start. It excites us, it inspires us, and it blinds us. Take Alexander the Great —his victories created vast empires, but also left behind countless corpses. Centuries later in Los Alamos , J. Robert Oppenheimer and his team felt the same thrill. Splitting the atom was not just science—it was adventure, fueled by the fear of Germany and the pride of discovery. The result, however, was the atomic bomb . This is how ambition works. We chase power, wealth, and knowledge, but rarely stop to ask: what will it cost? Look at the results today— melting glaciers...

I am seeing a God emerging from the probability of His being or not being, between the light and the dark. And yes, I have seen Him—with the same physical attributes as mine, with the very image I had been holding of Him in my mind, and with an immense light pouring out of Him. He is almighty. I didn’t want to blink; I wanted to be fully sure that He was still there, that I was not daydreaming. Yes, He is there—perhaps waiting for me to speak. Should I start speaking? But what would I say? Doesn’t He already know everything in my mind? And if He knows, would He still be interested in speaking with me, in hearing what I am seeking? If He asks for my wish—do I truly know what my deepest wish has been all my life? After all, wishes never end. So, should I ask for a final wish that could sort out all of my problems? But wait—what are my problems? Do I even know them at all? Is there any problem at all? In this way, I become confused about the very purpose for which I have been calling my ...

The Inner Voice in Chaos Have you ever felt the voice of an inner void while traveling in a train or during the commute to the office in the chaos of your daily routine? A voice that continuously remains within us and asks you to dive deep into it — like a para-diver plunging into the ocean to feel the immense silence hidden in this chaotic world. This may be the monk inside you, asking you to be still and feel the silence between the thoughts of doing this and that, of always trying to achieve something in the future. This monk continuously calls us to live in the present, but we keep trying to escape and live somewhere in the future. When Life Speaks Through Silence When it rains, we keep running under the shed of an umbrella as if we must reach somewhere. Yet, when we are tired, the same monk asks us to sit idle, lose ourselves in nature, or disappear into the mountains. We all have such inner voices, right? Listening to the Monk With...

Yes, at the very moment when you think it’s enough and you should now leave everything or go to the mountains or to the next trip, at that very moment the escapism from “what is” takes us away from the void of the inner self — the very void that gives us the wake-up call to understand reality. This call is the silence between the thoughts, a silence that raises no voice. Instead of understanding the void or Stillness , we choose escapism or Chaos — we choose to run away. Understanding this silence is not easy. It shakes you from the depths of your being and reveals that there is no inherent meaning in life — and that what is truly needed is choiceless awareness, a freedom that does not depend on conditions. This freedom of the self does not want you to run away under the name of “travelling,” actually it asks to take a deep dive into the self. When we choose the path of escapism instead of complete freedom, it gives only temporary relief — like a painkiller that v...

Every year, June 21st is celebrated as International Yoga Day , a tribute to one of India’s greatest gifts to the world—Yoga. Beyond the colourful displays of asanas across parks and global landmarks lies a deeper story—of a tradition rooted in spiritual pursuit, inner discipline, and profound philosophy. 🧘‍♂️ What is Yoga? The word "Yoga" is derived from the Sanskrit root “Yuj” , meaning “to unite.” Yoga signifies the union of individual consciousness with the universal consciousness. Although often identified with physical postures, Yoga is a holistic spiritual discipline combining asana (postures), pranayama (breath control), meditation, ethics , and ultimately liberation (moksha) . 📜 Historical Roots of Yoga in India Yoga is not a modern wellness trend. Its origins date back over 5,000 years to the Indus Valley Civilization , where ancient seals depict yogic figures in meditative poses. Textual references to Yoga appear in the Rig Veda , and its philosophies ...
