Teens And Their Misbeliefs


Teens, Teenagers or Sweet Sixteen. We are beautifully categorized each year with an adjective right before our age with every declining adolescent’s period. Also, every year right after the 12am, 'happy birthday' messages.  

 

Though with every year passing by, we (young-dumb-broke-high-school-kids: p) often have some misconceptions about life. A certain pre-conceived assumption or say misbelief of something. And, it is okay to have these misbeliefs, preconceived thoughts and assumptions. We are inclining towards adulthood journey where we are learning, discovering and exploring different-different life events and our ourselves every day.  So yes, it's completely alright to have misbeliefs. Also, it is very important to correct those misbeliefs which were preconditioned in our minds. Amongst various misbeliefs, there are few misbeliefs named, "meditation is for older people, not-so-cool-boring people, and it's only for yogis and not us." There are many other preconceived notions, assumptions and misbeliefs we are trapped to. As a young-foolish-teenager just like you. I was too trapped into this pit of misbeliefs. But 'after few years later' someone gave a helping hand or say lifted me up from this misbeliefs of pit and cleansed me with truths and self-beliefs. That someone was, "Gurutattva".

 

Meditation is open for all age groups and for everyone. Instead of preconceived notion of older people, one should start practicing meditation in his or her early age, because we have time! Also, we have that body which can seat for meditation which old people somewhere lack, both in time and bodily wise.  Meditation opens the treasure of creativity which resides in you. It will make you become comfortable being you, who you are. You will start enjoying the rides of life's rollercoaster. You will get out of your comfort zone, live a joyous, serene life where you'll be enjoying every moment of life. Meditation will be that healing which will heal every wounds of yours inside-out which medications would not ever be able to heal. So let's meditate and enjoy this sweet sixteen age of our lives and many other upcoming ages.

The Shushing Feet

Have you wondered what's the most frightened thing we are scared of? Fear of heights, fear of being alone, fear of death and many other fears (fear-of-lizards-whoa-an-agitated-loud-scream) and the list goes on and on.   According to Google, fear is 'the feeling that you have when something dangerous, painful or frightening might happen.' Amongst of these above-mentioned-fears there's another fearful-heart-beat-accelerating-and-sweaty-hands kind of anxiety of fear which we most of us have. This dear and unnerving fear is 'public speaking.' Boo! It is said that the fear of public speaking is more than the fear of death! (whoa-I-know-right) There can be varied reasons amongst different people for this fear. For example, one might think what others would think of himself or herself (others-approval-and-validation-barrier) Would I be able to speak in front of hundreds of people? (self-doubting-barrier) And many other barrier lists which goes on and ...

The Kissing Sun

Image
Have we ever tried gazing up at the sky for some time? The very beautiful sky which is there in our phone's gallery and also in our 'streaks' (puts-snapchats-90s-aesthetic-effect)   This beautiful enormous piece of creation by the Universe cannot be adored in a 6-inch Optic-Amoled display. You know they say 'sky is the limit'. Here, the 'cell phone has the limit'. No matter how beautifully 'sun kissed-photo' we take in our cell phones the joy in sitting in our balcony watching the orangish-red-fusion-of-the-sky for some time is incomparable (plays-dusk-till-dawn-by-Zayn) Here comes the stunning part - when we gaze at the sky or any other 'everlasting thing' we are in a state of thoughtlessness. (try-it-out) As the Master says himself, 'aakash ki taraf dekho aur fir vichaar karo, tum dekhoge vichaar hi nahi aarhe'. Now (experiential-learning-is-the-process-of-learning-from-experiences) we should definitely try this! Let...

The Underrated Happiness

Image
Isn't everything we do in our lives is to get happiness? Happiness that can stay with us every moment. We are literally chasing for happiness every day or say every moment of our lives.   Here, I mean about that everlasting, endless and eternal happiness . Happiness which is permanent and not temporary. For example, just imagine you ate a delicious-mouth-watering-toothsome-cookie (just imagine) and then after eating that delicious cookie, you felt like you're at the top of the world. Now, unfortunately this feeling resisted only for few minutes or maybe few seconds. (depending-upon-your-biting-and-chewing-skills) After few hours, you're back with your my-life-sucks-mode. Why is that so? Exactly, you just experienced a temporary happiness which lasted for some time. Well, you may ask what is permanent happiness and how to experience it? Here we go, Permanent happiness (or-say-underrated-happiness) is the happiness which comes from selflessness. It is an in...
