Category: Happiness

Having steped in the happiness world helped enlighten my mind and soul. Sidarshan kriya acted as fertilizer to help me relief  from my talkative mind and gain peace.Now I feel I am at the right  place, not in search of happiness because happiness doesn’t come with conditions we have to live in the present and be happy.

Lastly I like to end it with a quote by Mother Teresa which says:” Let us always meet each other with smile, for the smile is the beginning of love.”

Be happy…no matter what!!

I don’t know how to start and I am really not good at writing. I couldn’t come on the second day of the happiness class as I was not feeling well. I want to say that I had learned the ‘Sudarshan Kriya’ about 9-10 years ago, at that time this course was known as the ‘Basic’ course of the ‘Art of living’. That was a good experience, but this time I felt better than before. Better in the sense, I could see a ‘Chakra’ which was revolving and a flame during the meditation and something (a kind of string) was going upside from the bottom in the body. It felt like, ‘Na din tha aur na raat thi, bus mai tha sirf mai’ during the meditation. After the ‘Sudarshan Kriya’ whenever I do the meditation, every time I see a flame and the godess ‘Gayatri’. I really don’t know what it is, but it really gives me a pleasure. the ‘Yog Nidra’ after lunch was also a good experience.

My feelings 😊

Tuesday, the morning of 29th May, with great hope, I started my day with a thought that now I am going to learn how to be happy. Then facilitator said “No, I am not going to teach you all these things which you have think of.” What… why… how…all these thoughts were in my mind. 😱😨* ” *

Now I can understand what facilitator meant with her first line..  that happiness is within ourselves. Now it’s the time I need to open my eyes and look around me. I want to grab all the opportunities. I don’t want to loose this energy, so I will surely do Sudarshan kriya everyday. Thank you all…😀😀😀

The word ‘Happiness’ earlier I  understood that a smile on our face or laughing with someone, enjoyment but after joining this life class, there is a different meaning of Happiness.

In this session I learnt that when there is a peace in mind then you can feel happiness. When you are not affected because  of the actions of others and remain calm by controlling your emotions, it means you have self control . There is a power inside you which gives you the strength to live with your happiness and let it be in life as it’s going on because we can’t change the situations only we have to learn to survive according it.

I learnt Sudarshan kriya, meditation which helped me a lot to calm my anger and  gives me inner energy. I also learnt many assanas which help me to keep me physically as well as mentally healthy.

Through one activity I learnt many other things as we don’t need words to convey our message there are our emotions which put sense in the words.

Happiness session has shown me a path which can help me to lead a healthy and happy life.  I was thinking only what can I do to keep me healthy, how can I manage my stress, how can I get energy to do work, all these I am giftes from ‘Happiness session’

Thanks to all those who are involved to give me a wonderful gift of life.

What comes first when you listen to the word ‘Happiness?’ – Smile from the depth of the heart, right?

Happiness is a combination of how satisfied you are with your life  and how good you feel on a day-to-day basis. Both of these are relatively stable—that is, our life changes, and our mood fluctuates, but our general happiness is more genetically determined than anything else. Yes, it needs consistent effort.

Happiness is the center of our life. Who does not want to be happy in their life? I remember when our first session began, Sir asked all the participants to write about ‘Your expectation from life’ and I still remember everyone had this point in their answer that ‘We want peace in our life’. I really enjoyed and learned so much in this program like, “How to balance life, How to control anger, How to maintain relationship, How to take things the other way round,…..”. We learned how to train our mind. It is not only how to meditate but also a mixture of Yoga and meditation and when it comes together our life becomes perfect. I feel the difference in my life and I have experienced that change in my life now. It gave me courage to confess and helped me clarify issues with others (which bothered me since a long time), even to build a good relationship and understanding with my family members and others. Now I can track what my mind tells and how I should act. Meditation is really effortless and once you do it, it starts happening very naturally. There are some principles, if we follow them majority of our life will change.

I have had a similar experience earlier, as after I started doing Sudarshan Kriya, Sahaj Samadhi and Padmasadhana I found that my positive thinking was affecting my life as I started thinking, it happened. Sahaj samadhi is really very ‘सहज’(सरल).  I have experienced once we firmly decide to do something(खरे मन से ‘संकल्प’ करे तो)it affects our present and future. I have started to “live in present”

I have read somewhere that, “Your difficulties appear to be very big, lift your eyes because you are only focused on yourself. If you lift your eyes up and look at those who are in a worse condition than you, you will suddenly feel that your burden is not as bad as you thought it was.”

In the end, I would say that some things are the same and the revision of the Life classes in our school brings about new learning which enlightens. So, special thanks to our management for giving us this wonderful opportunity and time to know and explore one’s self.

Getting to know yourself allows you to jump into a well of happiness. Self-knowledge is important for one main reason: because it offers us a route to greater happiness and fulfillment.

Happiness Program helped us to know ourselves. I had a preconception that it’s difficult to meditate. I felt nauseated while closing my eyes but after learning Pranayam, Sudarshan Kriya, Padmasadhna and Sahaj Samadhi meditation, now I can meditate effortlessly for more than 30 minutes. This program helped me in being mindful i.e. now I live in present.

I would like to share a stage where I was enlightened while performing Sahaj Samadhi. I was in a different mode after doing meditation. Sahaj Samadhi is a stress buster for me.

I would also like to share that I had a frozen shoulder and I was unable to move my shoulder. The doctor suggested a visit to physiotherapist. It was difficult for me to perform Pranayam but Shruti(my facilitator) asked me to continue Pranayam and Sudarshan Kriya. It’s a great feeling to share that now my frozen shoulder is cured just because of Pranayam and Sudharshan Kriya.

It was an amazing experience to attend all the sessions of Happiness Program. This program has helped me in many ways. All the principles which were shared during the program have given me a different insight to look at the problems. Now I know how to dig deep and come up with the solutions.

Kruti 🙂
