2. Survival.
I want to believe and implement -At the end of the day, everyone survives; be it a king be it a pawn, be it a priest be it a don. How does one wanna survive is an individual though process. The people who choose to be happy and peaceful, remain happy and peaceful no matter what.

1. Saans.
Zindagi ke dariya me behte, koi hosh nahi hota, ho mashgool jaata hai
Kaanton se lagi chot ki usko parva nahi hoti, kyonki wo phool chahta hai
Chubhte rehte hai zindagi bhar usko, phir bhi phool se nazar nahi hataata hai
Ye sab chakkar me insaan saans to lete rehta hai, par jeena bhool jaata hai!

3. Aspect.
Why do people who already seem to be happy still don’t feel the happiness in it’s entirety? I believe it’s because happiness is never assumed to be in it’s entirety. It’s always been considered as the aspect.
A multi-millionaire might feel proud and happy about the wealth and prosperity in his possession but on the other hand, he may be sad about his looks or physical appearance.
Lets say some one is extra-ordinarily rich, good looking, dynamic, multi-talented and a loving person. Still, he might be craving for more in the said areas as well as beyond.
Net-net it’s all in the aspect and aspects are unlimited if not infinite. Hence, till the time happiness is believed to be in aspects or means, it cannot be experienced as a whole. Well, to an extent it can be experienced in intervals and that too depending on the state of conscious and subconscious minds.

2. Pace.
While I travel in a slow train and a fast train passes by on another parallel track I do feel bad that it has moved ahead of me and shall reach faster. Subsequently, each passing fast train makes me feel worse and beyond.
Well, at times when I travel by fast train and as it overtakes each slow train on the parallel track, I feel happy thinking that I shall reach ahead of the competition
The direction is same and the destination too but a feeling of reaching faster makes me feel happy and that of reaching slower makes me feel sad.
What if the destination is the death? Would I like to be slower or faster? Also, am I running, walking or crawling towards the ultimate destination of this life?

1. Incomplete.
Whenever I think of anything that can make me happy, I do feel that the complete happiness is in the achievement of the same; achievement in the sense the climax or in other words, the peak point.
While I am traveling towards being completely happy, I do feel nice on my way, however the craving of being complete (completely happy) at the sub-conscious level overshadows the on-the-way nice feeling.
Besides the moment of climax makes me feel complete and completes the happiness there and then itself.
The next ‘craving’ of being happy has already begun and so has my voyage of being complete once again.

2. The Experience.
Why do I want to travel several miles to cater to needy people with food, clothes and vessels? In a country of 117 million people with per capita income of mere 1000 USD /year, where a majority live below poverty line, what difference am I gonna make by spending a day or 2 in entire year and understanding their situation?
Probably, I will wish that such situation never arises in this life and others to come; perhaps, I might avert grumbling for a couple of days about the things that I don’t have or possibly I will pray for their betterment for a few days, while also seeking strength and courage for myself incase I fall in such a situation.
The biggest and the most hidden of all maybe I can boast the activity to whomsoever I come across by making others feel that I have executed one of the most complex and challenging tasks without any selfish motive. The other way of bragging could be to talk about a selfish motive of seeking their love and blessings by just being with them for an entire day and making a purposeful day for self in a one-track life where I crave to do something different to look unique in the eyes of my near-dear ones.
Having said all the above, I still would go ahead and pat on my back by quoting that despite having other options to entertain myself, I did chose this one with a reason of gaining peace, bliss and self-satisfaction.
Undeniably, it was a soothing event that was pioneered with an extensive willingness to execute the entire activity and involved an immense amount of preparations, sincere and dedicated team-work, strong thrust towards the purpose of serving the mankind, crafting an efficient project plan and implementing it to the best possible level by investing the raw material of time, efforts, money and resources through the medium of body, mind, heart and soul.
Most definitely, I would like to continue with these activities with multiple purposes viz. being a small reason of generating smiles and pacifying hearts; experiencing the peace within and above all, to get connected to the self.
To achieve many things in the materialistic, I forget to ‘LIVE’ those moments while I am in the process of achieving whereas this can be one reason where I can ‘LIVE’ and experience the best of ‘LIFE’ without any materialistic achievement.

1. Basic.
After a breath-taking experience over a period of last 4 days, while I take a shower cleaning my external dirt, I realize that I have already started accumulating the dirt on my interior, the area which I had attempted to cleanse and thought of continuing the cleansing process.
However, as nothing goes in vain, this internal pilgrimage also does leave me with a fruitful (to an extent) self-experience.
These are opportunities where people like me get cut-off from the external world to a greater extent and have a chance to peep into the undiscovered peace and bliss. During most of the earlier such opportunities, I had been putting efforts to stabilize myself and getting into the inner self. This time I attempted something new. I was just observing things as they come and be almost non-judgmental on most of the things happening. Rather, I would feel the things “happening” and allow them to happen.
The conversations around the way of life, survival, infinite potential, state of non-comparison with others, being and living as per own definitions, setting a goal which I want to set rather than what the world feels it, coming out of the stereotypical mentality of accumulating all possible money by all possible means, so on and so forth were pretty stimulating and thought provoking.
Everything is a mind game and to initiate with the implementation on the above, I got to train the mind to act according to way I want it to behave. For this, knowing the breathing pattern and concentrating on it throughout certainly would help in all the situations especially those hyper ones pertaining to agony, excitement, stress, etc.
These are some basic level things which are of utmost importance for success. To transcend from the existing way of life, the first and foremost need is to start implementing the desired way of life from the scratch rather than just going ga-ga over theories. As an analogy, I want to construct a new building while getting rid off the old one. Will I extend the floors above the roof top or do I need to demolish the existing structure, clean up the debris, dig deeper and build the base and from thereon start constructing the new structure?
Doesn’t matter if I have spent years in the futile attempt of extending the floors, I can still attempt to start demolishing the existing structure.
