How Gratitude Can Be Your Partner in Life By: Sonia Devine

Are you constantly struggling with life? If so, you might be focusing on all the wrong things. Practising daily gratitude will help you to turn your life around. Want what you have and what you want will come to you!
Gratitude is one of the most important things you can practise if you want to manifest unlimited wealth. One of the best ways to keep abundance and wealth flowing into your life is to give thanks for what you have today. By focusing on what you already have, you allow yourself to receive even more, so it is really vital to practise true gratitude.
We live in a world that focuses on instant gratification. If we don't have the money for something that we want to buy right now, then all we have to do is go to the bank and they are more than happy to loan us the money. As a result, many people are inundated in debt, and they become trapped in a never ending cycle of wanting, buying, and then spiralling deeper in debt.
When we get stuck in this cycle, we are constantly wanting things that we don't have, and in the process, we forget to appreciate what we DO have; Every day, we remind ourselves of what we are missing in our lives, and we can't begin to grasp the concept of gratitude. Instead, we say:
"When I have everything I want...THEN I'll be grateful!"
But that is not the way the Universe works....
Are you always comparing what you have with what others have, or wishing you could have what is advertised on TV? Or perhaps the people who live next door have a better car, a nicer house and more "things to play with" than you. Of course, it doesn't help when pictures of the "perfect family" with the "perfect life" are right on that TV screen in front of you every day. Do you feel deprived, frustrated or angry because you don't have what seems to be on offer to everybody else?
Whatever your situation is, focusing on what is lacking in your life is the single most effective way to ensure that you remain in a
state of scarcity.
You might ask this question: But How Can I Show Gratitude When I Don't Have What I Want Yet?. And that IS a good question; so here's a good answer: Make A Habit Of It.
Now, if you have become accustomed to only seeing scarcity all around you, then my guess is that gratitude will be the last thing on your mind. So the suggestion I am going to make may be difficult for you at first; I would even go as far as to say that you may feel a bit resentful about having to do it.
Some people don't want to take responsibility for the fact that they are not doing well financially. It's so much easier for us to blame other people and outside circumstances for our lack of wealth; because if it's all other people's fault,
then we don't have to do anything ourselves in order for "things to change".. right??
Well Okay, that's fine if you're happy for things to remain exactly as they are now. But if not, why not give this a go? You have everything to gain and nothing to lose! So make a commitment to change the way you see your life. Take stock of everything you have. You might be surprised and even amazed at all of the little things that you forgot are so special to you.
Begin by writing of all the positive things you have in your life. Who loves you? Who are your friends? What about your children. How do they light up your life? These are just a few things that we forget about that add so much value and joy to our lives.
Practising gratitude each day will remind you of the good things in your life. Now, I don't want to sound like a Pollyanna, but this is worth a try! If nothing else, it will help you feel better about your current life circumstances. Add something new to your gratitude list each day, and you'll be amazed at how many great things you will be able to think of once you develop this skill!
When you are grateful for everything you already have, you open yourself up to attract more great things. The Law Of Attraction always makes sure that this will happen. Thank the Universal Source for everything you currently have, and you will invite and allow even more prosperity to come to you. Make gratitude a part of your daily routine....and witness miracles in your life!

Stopping Smoking and Balancing Your Weight By: George Lockett

Therefore if you truly desire to stop, you will do this naturally.
What I would suggest is that you decide what you would like to do instead of smoking? What new desires you would like to explore and dream about, to spend all the money on that you save from naturally wanting to improve your health?
You will also substitute an activity that is destructive to your body for a constructive one, by moving away from poisoning your body through the inhalation of poisonous gases.
This is a very personal thing and only you know what brings you greatest happiness and joy. My own advice if I were to offer some would be to look within your Self, find your own inner dream which you have always wanted to do, and go and do it.
Regarding avoiding weight gain: if you create a vision of your perfect weight in your mind's eye and set this up as a blueprint for your body to grow into, you will naturally have a balanced weight.
Some tips that may help:

• Only eat when you are hungry.
• Drinks lots of water.
• Have your main meal at lunchtime and only eat a small snack in the evening.
• Eat food with the life force in it: i.e. mainly fresh fruit and vegetables.

I wish you luck on choosing a new way forward for your life. I am happy that you will follow your dream and experience the freedom of choosing what you want in your life consciously. You have made a big choice already by wanting to improve the way you live your life, by naturally allowing the negative tendencies to drop away, putting your attention fully on what you do want and allowing your energies to flow freely towards that goal.

Universities producing puppets, not laureate.

Underlining Question: What have this education system produced?

            When I see professors teaching great mysteries of world and don't even notice the beautiful sunshine outside and when I see the students studying the sublime philosophy of Socrates and Longinus and not even know how to pee in toilet, I think to my self; Universities are producing educated stupid. In this small piece of my life I got to meet many people, feel many culture, smelt many order, and have tasted many taste in my tongue. I have seen tear rolling down from eye of others, when I said "I came from the land of Vedas, Buddhas, Siddhas, Himalayas and Ganges, but haven't seen any trace of that glorious fragrance in any professors, students, bureaucrats, businessman, farmers, artists or ordinary people. In the pursuit of copying others we have missed our true self. Here in my writing I shall excavate what we have lost and what we got.

            When I joined the university and saw many so called professors, laureates who talk so much about the world and philosophy, have read many books page by page and have repeated it for twenty to thirty years and when I don't see them open for new horizon of new-age and not being open-minded, when I see them locked in the set of books of theories and wild like class room, when I see them teaching students just to pass the exams, don't care about the human in there. When I see students running after the syllabus and for tuitions just to pass the exams, and I think to my self . What am I doing here .

When I came to know about Thomas Babington Macaulay (1800-1859), who came to Indian sub-continent and saw peoples living in solidarity, harmony, above cast, creed, color of skin and country. With their knowledge of Vedas and Ancient Scripture, doing Yoga, using Ayurvedic medicine, and living with holistic approach. Which seemed as if it was the best site in whole earth. And stated:

I have traveled across the length and breadth of India and I have not seen one person who is a beggar, who is a thief. Such wealth I have seen in this country, such high moral values, people of such calibre, that I do not think we would ever conquer this country, unless we break the very backbone of this nation, which is her spiritual and cultural heritage, and, therefore, I propose that we replace her old and ancient education system, her culture, for if the Indians think that all that is foreign and English is good and greater than their own, they will lose their self-esteem, their native self-culture and they will become what we want them, a truly dominated nation.

And introduced the theory of "Break and Rule" to exploit this part of world. And hence, introduced East India Company's propaganda with white skin, gun, cars, rail and English language.

I am ashamed to say that today for the higher studies of Sanskrit, my friends are reading the books written by German scholars. Whole western world is doing yoga and starting to fallow the texts of Vedas and started to chant Mantras. By understanding the science and technologies from the ancient scriptures of Vedas, west is introducing new technologies upon us and we know nothing about our own garden where all those formula sprouted. We think as if we have became smart just by knowing few hundred words of English. I am amazed when I see students of Sanskrit and Nepal ashamed of taking with students of English or Science. This inferiority complex is non other then our own huge mistake.

We go on copying others and go one mimicking other and forget the real self. One of the Asst. Prof. Diwakar Upadhya in Tribhuwan University told he is son of a Vedic Scholar "Pandit". His father suggested him to study English, and today as he is Asst. Professor At T.U. he many time feels alienated, feels being no where. Though he have given his whole life in learning and teaching English, he is still not a native speaker and lacks many words to put himself clearly in English, he told as he is son of "Pandit" and know very little of Vedic Scripture but now he is totally frustrated about his next generation, now he feels as if he don't who is his son. And many time he feels so strongly he have lost the Scriptures and is not native English speaker, so he is in no man's land. He says "I don't know who I am, and this feelings hunts me many times".

As a kid in school, when I got seven out of hundred in mathematic and science and sixtyfive out of hundred in Nepali or English Literature, I use to have a question then, that "Is there any world exist where I can study what I love?". When my cousin brother first in class and I was in sixth or seventh position, my father use to suggest me to eat his shit. No one cared what I loved to do, I use love singing, dancing, helping mom in cooking and planting in my garden but I was just suppose to study - study - study. When sick and tired Jalopy of my study appeared School Leaving Certificate exam I passed it in second attempt with just a pass mark in Science and Math, where as got 65 in English and Nepali, and was forced to study English. Here I am in Central Department of English. As Richard Rodriguez felt at last in his essay "Achievement of Desire" that because of that knowledge he enquired made him realize that knowledge was worthless, I also am feeling same today. So if we know our own real identity only then we shall prosper in harmony. I will conclude my writing by Lailah Gifty Akita quotes "We are amazing individuals" we are beautiful because we all have our own shades of culture, rituals, values so there is no use of copying others rather lets learn our own self our own culture and let world know who we really are.
