Peace Of Living

Rediscover Balance through the Bhagavad Gita ’s Timeless Wisdom Labels: Inner Peace | Ego and Self | Bhagavad Gita Insights | Karma & Dharma In a world where deadlines scream louder than silence and even rest feels like another task to be completed, stress has become our unwanted shadow. I’ve walked that path — not just once, but many times — where the soul feels like it's suffocating under invisible weights. In such moments, when I feel like a leaf in the storm of existence, I return to the eternal dialogue between Arjuna and Krishna in the Bhagavad Gita . Not merely as a scripture, but as a living guide — a manual for the soul that doesn’t just preach peace; it reveals the inner architecture of how peace is lost and how it can be reclaimed. At the heart of this reclamation lies a profound shift — from ego to Self . 1. A Vedic Psychological View of Stress In Vedic psychology , stress is not caused by external eve...

  Why Do I Hear Voices in My Head? A Deep Dive into the Vedic Psychology of Inner Sound Have you ever caught yourself hearing a voice inside your head—perhaps the voice of someone you love, or even someone you fear? It could be an echo of a conversation, a memory replaying itself, or even a voice that seems to arise out of nowhere. This experience often leaves people confused, worried, or even afraid. In modern psychology, this might be referred to as auditory imagery , intrusive thoughts , or in extreme cases, auditory hallucinations . But in the realm of Vedic psychology , the explanation takes on a more profound and spiritual meaning. Let us explore this phenomenon through the ancient wisdom of the Upanishads , the Bhagavad Gita , and the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali . Inner Voices and the Vibrations of the Chitta According to the Vedas, the mind is not a single unified entity. It is composed of layers: Manas (the processing mind), Buddhi (intellect), Ahamkara (e...

Sanatana Dharma: The Eternal Pulse of Consciousness “They came with swords, they came with religion, they came with policies — but Bharat stood still, like a mountain witnessing the winds.” Empires rose and fell. The Mesopotamians vanished beneath the sands. The mighty Romans crumbled into ruins. The Persians, once fire-worshippers of Zoroaster , now only flicker as memory. The Egyptian pyramids still stand — but the civilization that built them is no more. Time, like a devourer, consumed them all. But Bharat? India? It lives. It breathes. It remembers. Despite being invaded, looted, burned, colonized, and mocked — It  survives. Why? Why did Bharat not become another chapter in the graveyard of civilizations? Why did Sanatana Dharma , the world’s oldest living tradition, not become another forgotten mythology? Because Bharat is not just a land. It is a living civilization — powered not by conquest, but by consciousness . Not by uniformity, but by unity in diversity ....

From Brahman to Goloka: Beyond Silence into Divine Love 🌌 What Is Brahman in Advaita Vedanta? In Advaita Vedanta, the highest goal of spiritual practice is to realize Brahman — the eternal, formless, unchanging reality. This state is beyond duality, time, space, or personality. It is known as: Sat-Chit-Ananda (Existence, Consciousness, Bliss) The ground of all being The end of karma and rebirth (Moksha) "Aham Brahmasmi" – I am Brahman "Tat Tvam Asi" – You are That In this state, the seeker becomes one with the universe, experiencing eternal stillness and freedom from all suffering. But is that the final state?

Return To The SELF A Whisper from Within: Returning to the Self By Kaustubh | Peace of Living June 5, 2025 | Thursday Namaste, dear one. Today, I offer you not just words, but a soft lamp for the path, a mirror for the soul. May these lines feel like a warm shawl on a cold evening, or the first light after a long storm.  When the Soul Grows Silent There are seasons in life when everything outside is moving—louder, faster, hungrier—yet inside, we feel a growing stillness. Not peace, not yet. But a kind of quiet ache . A longing. A fatigue that sleep cannot cure. Perhaps you’ve felt it too—that invisible weight pressing on the chest… a question whispered late at night: “What am I really doing? Who am I beneath all this?” In our quest to become someone, we often forget who we already are .   The Modern Web: Anxieties  in Digital Skies We live in an age of connections, yet loneliness multiplies like pixels on a screen. We scroll endlessly, trying to ou...

  Kundalini is not just an intellectual topic; it’s an experiential process. The more we try to analyze it externally, the more the mind creates expectations, which can interfere with the natural unfolding of the experience. Should We Inquire About Kundalini? Enquiry with a seeking mind is natural, but obsessive questioning can create unnecessary fears. Many people intellectualize Kundalini without real spiritual practice, which leads to misinformation and unnecessary anxiety. The best way to approach Kundalini is through surrender and direct experience, rather than excessive theorizing. Kundalini and the Dark Night of the Soul The "Dark Night of the Soul" is a stage where one feels lost, disconnected, or overwhelmed. In Kundalini awakening , this phase happens when old patterns (Sanskaras/Karmic imprints) burn away . It can feel like depression, existential crisis, or extreme emotional turmoil. However, if one surrenders to divine will, the process completes natur...

Krishna, the Supreme Director In the grand cosmic play of existence, Krishna is both the creator and enjoyer. Everything—Prakriti (material nature), Gunas (modes of nature), and all living beings—functions under His will. Souls enter bodies made of Gunas, taking up roles in this grand drama, just as actors step into their characters on a stage. But who is the real doer? If everything is Krishna’s will, then what part does the soul play? Swadharma: Every Being Follows Its Role Each species, from birds to plants to animals, follows its Swadharma (innate duty) perfectly. Unlike humans, they cannot act against Dharma because they lack free will. A lion hunts, a tree provides shade, and a river flows—all without questioning their purpose. However, humans, gifted with curiosity and intellect, have the ability to question existence. This quest is known as Brahma Jigyasa —the search for the ultimate truth. The Illusion of Doership When a soul begins its journey of self-realization, it d...
