Jay Bharati, Jay Bharati!

India used to be an abode of Spiritual Education in ancient times.  All Indians were so spiritual at that time. Truth, Non-Violence, Obedience, Tolerance, such virtues were at the helm of everybody's behavior

   

“Jahan Satya, Ahimsa Aur Dharma Ka

Pag Pag Lagata Dera,

Voh Bharat Desh Hai Mera,

Voh Bharat Desh Hai Mera,

Jay Bharati, Jay Bharati”

“No wonder that at a certain phase in Indian history, the greatest emphasis the educational system laid was on making the student conscious of his soul. The process of learning, from this point of view, began from within.

What the teacher—who was often a Rishi or a seer—wished to see was, all the faculties, all the parts of the pupil’s personality, must be governed by his soul, instead of by his crude physical desires, mental preferences or impulses. A great doctrine to which they subscribed was the doctrine of Swadharma. In the phenomenal world marked by multiplicity, each human being had a specific inner nature, apart from his share of the common stock of desires, emotions and passions, constituting his superficial personality, his ego-self. To transcend the ego-self and to illumine the consciousness in the splendor of the soul was looked upon as the true goal of education.”[1]

As we see how the Society is diminishing in case of values day by day. It is necessary to develop the programs for inculcating spirituality in the society.

Today’s Indian youths are little bit confused because of the bombarding of the new technological devices, information explosion and violent news by the press & media. To inculcate the value system in their confused minds and make them value-oriented-powerful leaders, educational institutions should take the initiative to impart Value Based Spiritual Knowledge to this new generation.

“Imbibing the qualities of good conduct, self-confidence and high values would help students earn a significant place in society.  Education without spiritual values is like a flower without fragrance.  Students should realize that character building is equally important as career building.  A good character in life is ultimate thing that stretches person’s self-realization”.

An attempt is made in this paper to discuss the role of the spiritual education in society, it elaborately discusses about the implications to develop the spiritual education. Rena, R. rightly points out that “There is a popular misconception that values are “better caught than taught”. In reality however, values are both caught and taught.” Today’s generation is not going to catch the spiritual values without teaching. We have to teach the spiritual values to this generation before they are caught by the bombarding of the new technological devices, information explosion and also by the media.

According to the author Value Based education cannot be taught without Spiritual Knowledge or Spiritual Consciousness.

In conclusion, mere desire or aspiration to progress in life is not enough; success should be based on values. And for that value-based education must be imparted in today’s institutions. So that the students may emerge as good leaders in their chosen fields.

Resolution for the New Academic Year

Prayer begins by talking to God;

But it ends by listening to Him.

O Lord, My God, I need your assistance, Because I fully realize that on my own I am weak and wayward and good for nothing.

I want to do my duties as a Student of this College to the Best of my ability.

I want to shoulder my responsibilities and fulfill my obligations and commitments seriously with determination perseveringly.

I want to do always what is right And pleasing in your sight.

I want to overcome all kinds of temptations whenever they come my way.

I want to avoid all bad thoughts, words, persons, places and things which
would lead me away from you.

I want to shun sin and lead A good and upright life.

Please help me O God to keep these resolutions not just for today
But for every day as long as I live।

Self healing

Understanding the power within :

When we are protected by God, when we have a definite divine design to live & when we have spiritual powers within us, why are we not free ? why we don’t feel peaceful? why there is misery in our lives? why we are not happy? Just because we don’t understand our powers. We don’t understand that we can heal ourselves. We don’t understand that we have a whole battery of healing from the misery, that we can achieve happiness all by ourselves with the help of God within.

Everything is possible with God & with our power within. Man is a “Divine Computer” made by God Himself. *(“Think Positive”) We get the same results from it which we feed into it. When we feed any wrong information it gives wrong result & when we feed the right one it shows us the right results. We can say, ‘it is more than a Computer.’ Of course, we can make computers, so we are more powerful than the computers. But we don’t understand this. And many of us do not even know this fact.

We can get what we want out of our lives with the help of our computer within. We can heal anything for our own good. For healing we must use a proper technique. If we go by that technique we are surely going to get what we want. Our desires of our hearts are definitely going to be fulfilled.

MENTAL HOUSE CLEANING : First step of this technique is cleaning ourselves. Not only outward but inside us. We have to clean our mental house. Take out all the Negative ideas, Negative beliefs & wipe them out. Release them out by writing, by talking to best friends, by speaking with God is the best way. Then thinking, breathing out, then mentally seeing that it is going out. Mentally seeing the picture of negatives going out. Lastly, feeling fresh, mentally seeing the mind as clean and fresh. “ Breathing in ” the fresh air, divine air, feeling it inside.

FORGIVING, LOVING & PRAYING : After cleaning ourselves inside we must fill our mind with all the positive ideas, with full faith, prayers, love, forgiveness. We have to breath in the positive, the faith, love etc.

FEELING POSITIVE : Feeling positive is everything in man’s life. His success and failure depends only on his feelings. Deep feeling comes out in the real form if we have strong faith on our feelings and if we keep that feelings a secret.

Spiritual power within us

Man has discovered tremendous power within himself. He knows that he is having spiritual power within himself. This power is seen in man by way of a ‘Hunch’, ‘Intuition’, ‘miracle’, etc…

Many times we feel to do something but we don’t understand “why” we are forced to do it. & if we do that we find the good result, which is best for us or for somebody else who is in need of the something. It is called a “hunch”. Hunch is a message sent by Him for our good & it is up to us to take that chance or not.

If we don’t take that chance & go against it, the hunch insists us. And if we still don’t take the chance we start feeling miserable inside. And if we do take a chance & fulfill the hunch even late, we get what we are destined to get. But if we miss the chance then it comes to our mind again & again & it tortures us & we feel guilty for missing the chance.

Sometimes we have a problem & we think & think & think, but we don’t get an answer; but in the middle of the night or in dream we get the answer & the problem is solved. It is God’s grace or ‘KRUPA’.

By His Krupa many of our problems get solved. We have to be thankful to Him. Many a times we know beforehand what is going to happen in future, that is “Intuition”. Sometimes we want something; the thought comes to our mind & it comes in front of us miraculously, that we wonder how it happened.

All these are the examples of the spiritual power within us. We must understand it & use it for good only.

DIVINE DESIGN

There is a divine design for each man. A man has to find it out & he should shape it & try hard to blossom it fully. He should believe strongly in good. He should believe in God, in His will.

There is something within us sparkling, which is the essence of our divine design. When we try towards it’s fulfillment it goes right. When we try against it , everything goes wrong. So we have to recognize it. When we feel strongly that we must & should do this, we must do that & we should because there we go near the divine design of our own. When we don’t want anything but still everything goes smoothly we should recognize that this is the right way towards our divine design & just keeping it up ( though it is not as per our will ) is wise. Have faith, complete faith that this is the right path & though there are many thorns or obstacles or calamities on this way, we should not loose our heart & faith. Because the way goes straight towards the fulfillment of our desire or the divine design.

“Shraddha & Saburi” are the magic words to achieve our goal. Constantly believing that this is the right path & that He is showing me the way which is the right way of peace in misery.

When we are in the middle way, it is very difficult to recognize that He is with us, but it is necessary for our peace of mind to accept His presence & to believe in His goodness. If we do not recognize His presence we will collapse & some other calamity will come over. We must believe in Him Totally & the rest will be done by Him.

We should be balanced in every situation so that there won’t be any obstacle in His will. And His will can come true gradually, which is the divine design. We can refer to the Greatest philosophical work of India “The Bhagavadgita”. In which the Bhagavan Shrikrishna says to Arjun :-
“सार्वधर्मान परित्यज्य मामेकं शरणम व्रज

अहम् तवा सर्व पापेभ्यो मोक्षयिश्यामी माँ शुच ”

When we go towards the fulfillment of the divine design, we experience peace of mind. Because what we achieve then is our destined goal & we are made to achieve the same. We are made for that.

मन एव मनुष्याणाम कारणं बध मोक्षयो:

मन एव मनुष्याणाम कारणं बध मोक्षयो:

“What the mind can conceive & believe, It can achieve!”
Through this foundation negative minds can be changed into positive.

असतो माँ सद्गमय तमसोमा ज्योतिर्गमय मृत्योर्मा अमृतं गमय
When our mind has the assurance feeling deep inside, for any happening, slowly & gradually it definitely takes place out in the world. For that each & every negative feeling about that topic or subject, should be wiped out of the mind. And the mind must conceive that idea with successful feelings.

Whether God exist or not is a big question for them who have not yet entered the Spiritual Path. But from the ancient time we have seen that man needs somebody who protects him, guides him when he is in trouble or in a dual state of mind. Man needs somebody who showers love on him unconditionally, without any selfish motive, when man faces calamities or when he is full of misery or sorrowful events, he need a hand that pampers him or who gives courage to face the situation.

It is seen that when man is depressed or helpless & if he gets the one who cares & pampers & guides & loves him, he is again refreshed & become courageous & confident as before.

Man doesn’t like to be in Misery for more time. He always want to be happy, peaceful & loving state of mind. He feels to get out of the negative always. He is attracted towards positive. He tries to go upward, towards betterment always.

The most important thing man needs is “security”. He wants to feel secure. He is always afraid of something or somebody. It is his nature & for that he always needs somebody with him, for his security. He needs some protection, which should be strong, powerful & super-humane & that is how he believed on GOD to protect him, guide him, love him & for everything.

Many people believe in GOD & many people do not. Those who believe also have different kinds of beliefs, like some believe only in pooja-path than humanity issues. They don’t feel necessary to help people or to pamper the sorrowful minds. They don’t understand the GOD within. They give importance to rituals more.

When we accept GOD we must live with Him; by His will, surrendering Him everything. Remembering Him each moment. Praying Him, thanking Him, talking to Him. When we live on this road we can experience His existence more often.
