The Secret of Emotions! You might be thinking where is the secret in it? We all know about emotions and we know how to suffer or enjoy them. Yes, I agree that we all know about emotions, but there is something specific about emotions which if you understand and implement, your life will be more joyful and stress-free. So, what is this secret of emotions?

Now, first, let’s understand what I mean by emotions. For me, “Emotions are strong feelings deriving from one’s circumstances, mood, or relationships with others.” If you read this definition you will observe that emotions are always dependent on the outside world. Any feeling which you have without any outer stimuli is not in my purview of the emotions I am discussing today. Emotions which do not require outer stimulation are pure feelings. These are feelings of joy, equanimity, bliss, ecstasy etc. which can be felt without any outer cause.

Some people are depressed or sad, but they do not know the cause of their sadness and hence cannot be considered as experiencing a pure feeling. People might have forgotten the reason for their sadness, but they are carrying this sadness due to some event that has happened in the outer world. If some people feel happy or joyful because today is their birthday or they got promoted or some other success, then too they are not experiencing a pure feeling as the stimulus is outside.

Let’s see what your emotion does to you. Do you remember your first love? Your first kiss? How elevating it was? The degree of the emotions generated the first time is never achieved the next time. Due to this first emotion, you keep loving the same person or someone else but the intensity of the first emotion is never experienced and surprisingly the intensity constantly drops to a new low each time.

This feeling of never reaching the intensity of your ‘first-time emotion’ is the same for your fun parties, smoking, drinking, movies, making money, shopping etc.  By getting trapped into this chase of experiencing the same intensity of emotions every time, secretly our emotions engage us in this chase of a mirage.

Now let’s take another scenario. Some people say they get the motivation to work or to act when they are running high on some emotion like anger, hate, fear etc. You might have heard many success stories started with a thought of revenge or to prove oneself. These people might be driven by anger or hate. Or you might have heard or seen people who start working just close to the deadlines or when something is going to fail and when they will face a grave consequence.

 Whether you are chasing an emotion or acting with emotion, in both cases, in the end, you will feel a void inside you and your body might also have to pay the price for it. Why does this happen? It is because in the first case when you are chasing an intensity of emotion which you will never be able to get again, you overindulge in the act. Example smokers will smoke more, drinkers will drink more, lovers will have more sex etc. Generally, this creates withdrawal from other social and personal (internal/ external) activities as one is focusing on and giving energy and time to a particular act more than others. If a person is not made aware of his state, he might form a habit which might take him till the tipping point and throw him off-balance. This type of person is already feeling an absence (void) of emotion and feeling a constant failure to achieve it. Just a few other failures/challenges in the life of such a person might throw him into a mental and emotional off-balance.

In the other cases where people ride a wave of emotions and achieve success through it are constantly putting pressure on their mind, brain and the rest of the nervous system. These negative emotions of anger, hate, fear etc. not only keep them stressed but they stay in the same emotion majority of their time and create the habit of behaving out of these emotions. This habit might take them to the tipping point and throw them off-balance. This type of person always displaying the same emotions creates a negative environment in which positive feelings cannot stay long. They create a snow-ball effect of the emotions and after a while, they cannot control it. These emotions not only destroy their social relationships but also destroy their body and mind as constant negative emotions create stress and stress-related diseases.

These emotions are actually making you their slave. At first, it feels that these emotions are giving you success and pleasure but later these take away your mental peace and health. These emotions also cloud your mind, and you make the wrong decisions in your life. You find it difficult to enjoy life. For this reason, I say, “leave this baggage of emotions right away”.

How to leave these emotions?

1. Get proper knowledge: First, learn from an able teacher why we get emotions and the reasons why we get trapped in them.
2. State of high frequency: Through pure emotions, get into high frequency. There are many breathing and sound therapy techniques that help take you to a state of high frequency.
3. Practice art of observation: Through meditation techniques build your mental muscle of observation. Observation is seeing things as they are, without looking through the tinted glass of your emotions.

Today wherever you go people talk about motivation, but no one shares “The Secrets of Motivation”. Why do I say this? Firstly, very few people talk about How to be motivated. But is getting motivated good enough? What are the drivers/factors of your motivation? You might be one of the persons who love the speed in a car. But if you disregard safety and over speed then it can kill you. The same enjoyment might become the cause of your sorrow. The same is true for motivation, wrong motivational factors can land you in danger, ill health, loss of fame, loss of prosperity or you may even lose your life. 

What is motivation and motivation factors? 

Motivation is a reason for acting or behaving in a particular way. So how will you know what the reason or factor behind your motivation is? Generally, people are not aware of their motivational factors.  

People’s motivation unknowingly comes from negative drivers: 

1.    Fear: Fear is the most common factor or reason for motivation. Some people wait till the last minute of a deadline to start their work, as fear is their driving factor. Or some people complete the work for those people whom they fear or r people take action because they fear others’ criticism and opinion or when people work hard at the office because they feel financially insecure. So, please check and if there is any ounce of fear in your thoughts before starting your work, then you are motivated by your fear too. 

2.    Hate: There are people who promptly work against those they hate. Or people work against a thought very actively, then they are motivated by hate. We are motivated by hate when we want to prove others wrong. We are motivated by hate when we want others to apologize to us. Just check in your heart if you are motivated because you are hating someone. 

3.    Jealousy: There are people who only take action when they feel a sharp pang of jealousy against their rivals. When we want to become better than others. When our success lies only in shining or getting a name or money more than someone, we are in jealousy. If we are constantly comparing ourselves with someone, then we are in jealousy. Search your heart are you unknowingly competing with someone and if someone’s success is hurting you? 

4.    Anger: Some people only get into action when in anger. People do unbelievable acts when they are in anger. Some call this bravado but actually, we get blinded by our anger and we take risky decisions. These risky decisions sometimes pay us off, but most of the times put us in the worst situations. Anger, as a motivation takes away more than what it gives. When we are so focused on someone that we forget our real welfare, our loved ones, and values, constantly feeling anger as an emotion, then we are motivated by anger. A person motivated by anger is so negatively motivated that he/she would like to destroy others even it means their own destruction. Just check in your subconscious mind if you are really working for your real welfare or you are constantly focused on someone else?  

5. Greed: Some people are motivated by their greed. Greed is when you have what you desired for, but you still want more. In greed, things which you desire are never enough. Like you can have money, but you want more, and money is never enough. This is greed for money. So, check if you are working because you act only if you want more of something with greed in mind - then you are motivated by greed. 

6. Strong Attachment: There are people who get the drive to take action when they are feeling a strong attachment towards something or someone. If the thought of losing a cause which you are attached to, motivates you or if you feel motivated when someone you are attached to, then you are motivated with a strong attachment. Strong attachment is a negative emotion because it takes away your capacity to think logically and you take your eyes away from your welfare. 

The above are negative emotions but unknowingly we think these are positive factors and are the real motivators in life. Also, it is easy to operate from these motivational factors because our mind has a negativity bias. Our animal and emotional brain are very active and take these motivational factors essential for survival. Once something is attached to survival, then it has zero resistance from the brain and mind. But in the long run, these negative emotions take more than what they give. They take away your health and peace of body and mind. 

We should work with positive motivational drivers, like: 

1.    Love: People can achieve impossible tasks when they are in love. They can go far and beyond for their lover and what they love. Love is a positive emotion and different from attachment. In general, people confuse attachment with love, but love is an emotion that gives you courage and feeds you with positive energy. This positive energy gives you the power of creativity and innovation. Unlike attachment, love does not blind you from your own welfare and creates a win-win situation. You should know you are motivated by love if you wish well for everyone involved in the act - even for your opponents. 

2.    Compassion: People are motivated when they see other people in need, as this fills their heart with compassion. There is a difference between feeling pity for someone and being compassionate. When we feel pity, we feel the other is suffering and we can give, this comes from the mindset of feeling powerful. Pity is the outcome of our ego. On the other hand, a compassionate person only wants to help others without thinking if he has the power to truly resolve the issue or not. A compassionate person will stand next to the needy because he cannot leave the person in need. This is a very positive feeling as this gives you the power to innovate or create in adverse situations. In the complete process, compassion does not make you feel weak. Compassion gives you more energy and power and does not require external support, it is self-sustaining and good for everyone. If you are standing and supporting a person in need without expecting praise or any other benefit, then you are motivated by compassion.  

3.    Joy: When people work out of joy then they get into a higher creative zone. People working with joy can create wonderful new things that can fulfil the requirements of many, and the best thing is that this is done without feeling the pressure of performance. Getting and spreading joy by creating a win-win situation in life motivates many people to do something. On the other hand, people who perform because they feel responsible for what they have to do, feel pressure and lose their health. Many painters, musicians, and creative artists just perform for their joy and by doing so they excel in their creativity. 

4. Higher Cause: Some people give their lives for a higher cause. But an understanding of this higher cause is very tricky. As many contradicting activities can look the same. Like soldiers protect their country and for that, if they have to kill the enemy at the border is considered a higher cause. But terrorist attacking innocent public, women, children, and elderly people cannot be for a higher cause. So, people who have proper wisdom can only understand what a higher cause is. This motivation has been misused in these times by many miscreants. As a thumb rule, higher cause is which spreads happiness and joy in all levels of society without any discrimination and in return makes you feel joyful and peaceful.  

These positive drivers have motivated many greats like Mother Teresa, Mahatma Gandhi, Nelson Mandela, Jesus Christ, Buddha, Swami Vivekananda, etc. These positive drivers/factors create great power in people and their names get immortalized.

You might have seen people claiming that their therapy or a course will create the ultimate peace and is “The Secret Behind Peace of Mind”. At the look of it, you feel after this course or therapy or retreat I will be forever peaceful. Generally, people think that once you have reached the state of peace then, you will have it forever. But this is not the case. Let’s first understand “what is peace?”

What is peace?

When your mind becomes free from internal disturbance, we are at peace.

But how to be at peace?

Our mind is disturbed due to external challenges and emotional turmoil. These external and internal disturbances are interlinked. When we face external challenges, we get into internal disturbances which take away our peace. So first things first – some corrections in our behaviour and actions.

1. Prioritise your work: Pending and accumulated work always creates pressure in your mind. Unconsciously your mind keeps track of your tasks and unknowingly creates pressure if there is a delay. Pressure in the mind takes away your peace.    
2. Learn to let go: In every activity, there are tasks which you can control and some which are not in your control. You have to learn to let go of the tasks which are not in your control. Worrying about tasks that are not in your hand will create more pressure in your head and this will take away your peace. Put your focus and attention where you have control.
3. Do not be a pleaser: People spend their life performing actions to please others. If you are one of those who always thinks what others will think or say before each action, then you know the constant pressure your mind faces before each. So, you should not be thinking about others while working but you should focus on what needs to be done. Self-love is the antidote to pleasing others and creates peace of mind.
4. Forgive: You might have noticed when someone insults you or disagrees with you, these events are played and replayed by our mind. Whatever you do these unpleasant thoughts keep bothering you. You can temporally engage your mind in some work but as soon as your mind is free, these thoughts catch-up and disturb your peace. The only permanent solution which can give you peace of mind from this nagging thought is forgiveness.
5. Keep Learning: Whether it is in professional life or life in general, if you are not learning you feel irrelevant and you will struggle to cope up with a situation. This takes away the peace of your mind. If you learn from the challenging situations in life, then you gather priceless wisdom. This wisdom helps you tackle situations in life better. This gives you confidence and this confidence helps you gain peace of mind.    
6. Do social work: Bringing a smile to other’s faces makes you happy. However, if you can solve someone’s social issue, this brings you peace and happiness. Humans are social animals and if you can be a service to society, it gives you a satisfaction that you will not get when you keep satisfying your desires. Helping others is a higher value which is ingrained in every human being’s value system. Whenever your actions match your value system you feel peace of mind along with happiness.
7. Be in Gratitude: Your peace of mind is lost if you are always focused on what is missing in your life because your mind keeps reminding you of this. For example, if you are having a shortage of money and you keep focusing on it, then you cannot focus on increasing your revenue. This is called poverty consciousness. I can understand you might say it is reality and you are just thinking about the facts, but what I am pointing out is that you might be thinking about your shortfall too many times in a day. These thoughts of shortfall take away the peace of your mind. So, what can you do about it? The antidote to this is to be in Gratitude. Yes, feel gratitude towards what you have because this will not only attract abundance but also gives you the mindset to work towards achieving more. When you are contented and working for your future, you feel in control. This feeling of control of your life gives you peace.   
8. Breath Properly: Have you noticed when you are in fear you take shallow breaths or when you are shocked you do not breathe? If you really want to be at peace you need to breathe normally at all times. If you start doing belly breathing, you not only feel peaceful, you will feel energetic. When you oxygenate your blood, your fears go away and peace comes to your mind. Good breathing is one which uses the full capacity of your lungs. Deep breaths or belly breathing is key to a peaceful mind.
9. Exercise: Stress takes away your peace of mind. Beat stress with exercise because endorphins are created when you exercise which then react with the receptors of your brain that reduce your perception of pain. Endorphins trigger positive feelings in your mind and body. This creates peace in your mind.
10. Meditate: Stress and fearful thoughts take away your peace of mind. Meditation is one way to bring peace of mind under any circumstance. Once you become a regular practitioner then your mind gets into a habit of getting into a peaceful zone. This habit will encourage your mind to sustain this peaceful state and believe me, the mind will definitely maintain this peace.

How to be in sustained peace?

Once you have reached the state of peace, then you have to be more aware to stay there. You have to constantly work to maintain your peaceful state.It is easy to lose your peace because of the environment and all your past negative experiences as they come in your way. You need to be vigilant and constantly aware to know what can disturb your peace. Before the circumstances or challenges disturb your peace, you need to dismiss fearful thoughts and work towards restoring the peace. Yes, if you constantly practice restoring your peace, then with each practice it becomes easier and soon this becomes your second nature where you always work towards going back to your peaceful state. So, to think that peace is a one-time effort is incorrect. It is a constant practice and one has to strive to stay peaceful throughout his/her life.

Many of us talk about our intuition, but do you really consider “Intuition Your Secret Power?” Before we start analyzing the power of intuition, let’s discuss what is intuition?

What is Intuition?

People think that what comes to their mind as a creative idea is their intuition. Some feel the idea which saves them in a crisis is an intuition.If we take the above conditions as intuition, then the conclusion is that intuition happens in a particular time or situation only and intuition does not work all the time. Some people add their logic to the data available, and then they call it intuition. Intuition is something you come to know without any prior conscious resource or knowledge about it. It happens automatically without overthinking or dipping into your memory.

Intuition is when a mother with her instinct calls her child when they need help or are not well. Intuition works pretty well between people who are connected emotionally.Intuition is when you are walking in the thick vegetation and suddenly you have the instinct to stop and look down carefully and you see a snake there!Intuition is when you keep some extra cash in your wallet and suddenly you have the need to use it.

Are Intuition and Gut feeling the same?

Some people take their gut feeling as intuition. Gut feeling is also very intuitive, but it is not the type of intuition I am talking about. Gut feeling is associated with your gut region. Humans are biologically hardwired for survival and it is related to the child’s first cell which is formed in the womb. This cell has all the survival data from the parents, and it stays in the navel of the human body. The signals from this cell is called gut feeling.

Where does Intuition come from?

Intuition originates in the super consciousness and is received by our right brain and it becomes stronger and accurate if the person’s midbrain is activated. So, people who have good mastery over feelings, or are creative or meditating might be good with intuition.

Can we trust Intuition?

People generally tell me that they find it difficult to trust their intuition, as they cannot differentiate between their thoughts and intuition. I find most of my friends also feel the same way or that they believe that they lack intuition.

Let me tell you that everyone has intuition. We are born with it. Just think of those times when you have called your friend or lover and he/she said that they were thinking about you. The thought that asked you to call your friend was your intuition. Most of the time you can realise your intuition using these simple rules:

1. Thoughts without any current context
2. The thought is your first thought
3. The thought creates a win-win situation
4. The thought would be for your higher good

How to know you are an intuitive person?

• Mastery Over Emotions: If you are one of those people who can witness your emotions and stay constantly aware of the emotions arising inside you, then you are very likely to have a good intuition. If you can differentiate between your emotions from the feelings you are receiving from super consciousness, then only you can be intuitive.
• Good Emotional Connect with Others: If you can connect with people at the emotional level and understand their emotions then you can be an intuitive person. How? Because for intuition, you have to use the right side of your brain and the right brain is also the seat of emotions. Understanding other emotions mean that your right brain is active.
• You are a meditator: If you regularly meditate and you can go beyond your thoughts, then your brain is perfectly tuned to pick up the intuition without mixing your thoughts into it.
• If your Midbrain is activated: Midbrain is associated with vision, hearing, motor control, sleep and wakefulness, alertness, and temperature control. So, if your midbrain is active, then your awareness increases many folds. If your awareness is high, your intuition will increase.
• If you remember your dreams: Do you feel that you remember your dreams better than others? If yes, then this is another sign of your heightened awareness which leads to the intuition as you are able to use your right brain even when you are awake. Most of us start using our logical brain as soon as we wake up. So, if you are able to remember your dreams, you might be an intuitive person
• If you are not an Overthinker: When we face a challenging situation, we use our logic to solve it. This is as per our problem-solving training given to us by our society and education system. You might have felt that there are many situations in life where you cannot solve the problem by logic, and you need to be creative or think out of the box but because of our habit, we keep using logic i.e. our left brain, which results in overthinking. Overthinking shuts your right brain or say your intuition power. If you do not overthink, then you are one of those who live more by their instinct and take a decision on the basis of their intuition
• If you can hear your Inner Voice: You might have noticed that when you are in great need, suddenly you will feel as if someone is telling you in your head what to do next. This is called your inner voice which guides you mostly in the times of need. If you can differentiate between your inner voice and thoughts, then you are an intuitive person.

The above are a few pointers using which you can find out if you are an intuitive person or not but like any other art, you need to practice mastering intuition. Practice differentiating intuition from your other thoughts. Use the rules given here intelligently and refine the rules according to your patterns of thoughts and you will become more aware of your intuition.

How to get rid of lust is a big question. Lust is mentioned as one of the seven sins in Christianity. In other religions, lust is mentioned as one of the big hurdles for human beings to reach their true potential and keeps the soul bound to earth. What is Lust and how is it a sin/bondage for your mind?

What is the meaning of Lust?

Lust is an intense longing for something in our lives. It is generally attached to sex, but it can be for anything which we long for so intensely that our mind revolves around it most of the time. Some people lust for food more than they lust for sex.

What our Mind intensely thinks about?

Research says people think more often aboutFood, Sex and Sleep. But the most intense desire is still for sex.

How lust harms us?

Our energy is wasted in our lusty thoughts and we might miss the opportunity to grow completely as human beings. People think about sex as high as once every 7 seconds and as low as once a month. It depends on the age of the person. But is our mind completely free of sex? For the average human being, the answer is “No”. We are never completely free from lust and the funny thing is that the more you try to suppress, the more it grows, or the more you try to indulge, the more you long for it. Experience has taught us that both ways fail us.

What is the solution?

The solution is to strengthen a certain part of the brain which might be weak right now.

How many parts mind has?

As per Yogic sciences, we can divide our mind into 4 sections. These 4 sections are

• Buddhi: Is the discriminating power of the mind which tells us what is good and what is bad according to memory and intellectual knowledge.
• Manas: This is the part of the mind that takes input from your senses and collects the data and keeps it in memory. It tends to question and argue if something has to be done or not. It keeps challenging your intellect.
• Ahankaara: The part of the mind where all your identifications reside or the seat of your Ego. Mine and Thine understanding comes from it. The greed for having something from oneself comes from here.
• Chitta: The part of your mind which is consciousness and on which all of the other parts of your mind are created. It is like a blackboard on which everything is written. Chitta is not only confined to the mind, it is both the mind and body as a whole.

How to get rid of lust?

1. Discipline your Manas and Ego: Whenever your mind likes something, you have to tell your mind, “Go, Get it! My body will not co-operate”. Without the body, your mind will not be able to do anything. This will give a signal to your mind that you are not its slave and that it cannot have anything without your permission. You have to keep repeating this knowledge that your mind can like many things, but you cannot have all. Discipline your mind repeatedly by performing tasks which your mind does not like to perform. This repeatedly shows your authority over your mind and makes it obey your commands.
2. Discipline your Senses: Do not give stimulating inputs to your senses which in turn creates a habit for lust. Like, do not watch pornography or photos which stimulates your senses beyond your control. Do not take too much alcohol or drugs which shuts your Buddhi (Intellect) and makes your ego go unchecked. It is good to create healthy hobbies because it keeps your senses and mind occupied and distracts them from lust.
3. Witnessing: Chitta is that part of the mind which you need to be aware of in order to become free from the lust. By disciplining your mind and senses you can create some level of awareness. With further training, you develop the muscles of your brain to develop better awareness, and when the awareness is developed, you become a witness. Now you start witnessing your own thoughts of lust. Let your lust thoughts generate in your mind and you watch them in aloof attention without judging them. The thoughts will rise and will reach its peak, if you do not get attached to them, they will lose their energy and then fade away. Thoughts might try their luck a few times but if you can go into witnessing state when they arise, you will see that they will lose control over you. In this way, in witnessing you can transcend lust. The energy released by transcending lust will help you to realise your true self or help you manifest or create.

Till you read my next blog, till then Keep Witnessing, Stay Healthy, and Stress-free!!

We all know sex is fun but are you aware that “Power of Sex is Your Secret Power”. When I say, “the power of sex is your secret power”, I do not mean the way people use it to exploit the sexual weaknesses of others. I do not use term power as power over others, which is how it generally is the case.

What do I mean by the Power of Sex?

What I am talking about today is the bundle of energy which is sitting in the perineum which in the yogic sciences is called “Kundalini”. There are many studies, which show that when you need a little boost of immune energy soft sex can help. But this energy I refer to is bigger than that.

We use this energy in the perineum for procreation. Procreation happens because there is an energy behind it. This energy has the power of creation and power for many other possibilities. Through machines, people have taken photos of energy centers and energy bodies and it is proven beyond doubt that there is an energy system in our body that is still not exploited by modern medicine. We have to refer to yogic sciences and practical experiences to understand what this energy is and its benefits.

What is Kundalini and how is it related to Sex?

Kundalini is the name given to the energy which is sitting in the perineum of every human being. This energy is called primordial universal energy which is available to us since our birth. It remains dormant in the body until it is awakened.

Kundalini awakening is referred to as the rise of energy from the perineum and rising in the spine by entering through the tail bone. This energy has to go through the hollow of the spine called Sushumnaa Naadi in yogic sciences. When this energy goes beyond the crown chakra then it is called Kundalini awakening.

But how this energy is related to sex? As per yogic sciences, the Power of Kundalini is related to the formation of a fetus in the womb, so it is directly related to procreation and hence sex. In the science of Tantra, the experience of Kundalini is compared with the ecstasy of sex. It is written that Kundalini gives 1000 times more ecstasy as compared to sexual orgasm. This is why in general parlance people call Kundalini as the Power of sex.

Now we have to understand why Kundalini is a Power. It is a Power because it gives so many benefits.

1. Enlightenment Experience: When your Kundalini is awakened, you may feel oneness with the universe. This experience of oneness with the universe is called enlightenment. As Kundalini rises, it purifies your mind and opens the channels where you can perceive the oneness with the universe
2. Cleansing: When energy rises in the spine it starts cleansing blockages in the chakra. Also, it removes knots in the 7 chakras. Each of these chakras regulates your physical and psychological functions and hence cleansing of chakras actually leads to the proper functioning of these functions. This energy also starts cleansing at the cellular level and removes negativity absorbed in the cells. Lesser the negative imprints on the cells, more vibrant and healthier you become
3. Cleaning Karmic Knots -“Karmachhalan”: When our Karmic zip files (karmic seeds) get downloaded from the causal body, it enters our physical body through the medulla into the hollow of the spine. The karmic zip files unzip themselves in the spine and start blocking the energy of the chakras and other energy channels. These Karmic files or seeds sprout and attach themselves to the spine. When the energy rises in the hollow of the spine it rubs the sidewalls of the hollow and burns these files or you can say – roasts these seeds. Once the karmic file gets burnt or the seeds are roasted, they will never show their ill effect on you. This is the way karmic knots or karmic seeds cleansing happens through kundalini awakening
4. Heightened Your Awareness: When Kundalini reaches the head, your midbrain activation happens and your awareness increases. Midbrain, from where many important motor functions, especially movements of the eye and processing of visual and auditory. With midbrain activation, these visual and auditory functions heighten and people display amazing awareness towards themselves and things around them
5. Connects you to your Divinity: When Kundalini passes through your crown chakra, you get to connect with your divine self. This happens because you get connected with the universal force and you feel one with it. You do not feel any difference between yourself and the universal force
6. You can heal: As Kundalini rises and connects with the universal forces, you get connected with the higher consciousness. With higher consciousness flowing through your body, you can heal yourself and others
7. Improves Sexual Prowess: When Kundalini rises, it cleans all the negativity of the body and mind. This makes the mind supple and the body strong. You start experiencing more pleasure than you did prior to the awakening of your Kundalini. Only a healthy mind and body can enjoy sexual pleasures. Kundalini’s awakening gives you great potency and a healthy sexual appetite
8. Longevity: Awakening of Kundalini boosts your immune system. This gives you a youthful appearance example, a wrinkle-free, dark spots free, dead skin free body. Due to increased immunity, your body remains energetic and disease-free – one of the secrets to longevity
9. Loving Personality: Awakening of Kundalini creates a loving and pleasing personality. People get attracted to you because a purified mind connects with the higher consciousness which in turn radiates from your body and being

Are you aware that there is a very Powerful Hidden Side of Your Mind? This is more powerful and resourceful than you ever thought. It can motivate you much more than your negative emotions ever can. It can make you stress-free. This side of the mind is key to sustained success.

Are you surprised? You might be thinking I am talking fairy tale. Believe me, I am not talking about some myth or a fairy tale. It is proven that there is a part of our mind that is different from the part where your regular thoughts arise, or where your memories are, or where your intellect resides. This place in your mind is beyond your thoughts, intellect, and memory. So, how to know and use Powerful Hidden Side of Your Mind?

This part of the mind is only felt in deep meditation and it is free from all the modifications of the mind. This is the true form of our mind or let’s say the base of our mind. Everything else like memory, intellect, and thoughts are residing on this. Now the question is, if we can reach this place only through meditation, how people who are not practicing meditation access it?

The answer is simple: through the positivity of our minds. This is the reason some people call the power of this part of our mind ‘positive quotient’ or ‘positive intelligence’. Before we understand how to live with positive intelligence, we need to know how we are living today. You are living with fear-based motivators today.

Fear-Based Living and Motivators

As we know the negative side of our mind which is driven by fear creates lots of negative emotions and uses fear itself to create a force to survive. Survival is the only target for the fear-based actions. The fear-controlled mind generates the emotion of Guilt, Shame, Sadness, Hate, Anger, or Courage to counter the challenges thrown at it. The response however, comes from the person’s perception which he/she has created from childhood. To create the perception, we judge ourselves and the people around us. In this process we decide if we have to become

• a Pleaser (who pleases everyone), or
• an Achiever (whose main driver is to achieve in life), or
• a Perfectionist (who runs behind the illusionary perfection), or
• a Controller (who tries to control every situation and everyone around), or
• a Vigilant (who is always concerned about the security around), or
• a Victim (who never take control of their power and always blame others for their issues), or
• an Avoider (who procrastinates everything), or
• a Rational (who tries to justify everything through logic)

All the above motivators are stemming from our collection of fearful memories, survival intelligence, and fearful thoughts.

This way of thinking and leading life will never let you feel constant joy and bliss. Your life will become the journey of sorrow and failures. You need to keep yourself at high alert all the time which is not possible. In the end, this way of living drains all your energy and life force and you die after an unfulfilled life. Hence this is not the preferred way of living. The truth however is that we are born with this mindset.

So, to live with positive intelligence we have to change the way we perceive our world. Now let’s see how to activate this positive intelligence.

Activate Positive Intelligence or Quotient

For activating Positive Intelligence or Quotient, here are the ways:

Do not Judge: The first transformation is that you have to stop judging yourself or stop blaming yourself. This can only be done if your expectation from yourself and others are realistic. For this, you have to start treating everyone as equal and expect failures as natural and part of life.

Shift to Learning Mindset: The second transformation we have to bring is to shift from fear-based thoughts to learning-based life. So, whenever you commit a mistake or things do not go as you wanted, look into the learning behind that situation. This can only happen when you treat every situation of life as a learning opportunity.

Keep Emotions in check: The third transformation is to keep the emotions in check. Do not let your emotions hijack you because emotions will paralyze your rational mind and you will entangle in the problem rather than resolving it. Just before getting hijacked by emotions, choose to take a different path which is more rational and problem-solving.

Understand and Sympathize with Others: Try to understand others whom you are in conflict with or trying to get your work done from. Try to visualize what made them this unreasonable or unskilled person. Maybe they were not like this or that they might have undergone tremendous challenges in their lives, which created this personality of theirs. This thought will create understanding and sympathy for others in you.

Adjust or Innovate: Now when you have understood others or situations, the next step is to try to innovatively create a solution or adjust to the challenging situation.

Be in Gratitude: Bring gratitude in every moment of your life or at least gratitude towards good things in your life. This connects you greatly to the powers of the untapped mind. This trains your mind to look for the positive side of life.

Forgiveness: Forgive people who have wronged you or people who have hurt you knowingly or unknowingly. Also, ask for forgiveness from the people you have hurt. This takes away a large portion of your fear, anger, hatred, and other negative emotions.

When you follow the above steps and transform your life, suddenly you will see that a new power emerges within you which is not dependent on your environment. You will suddenly become a self-guided blissful personality and suddenly without knowing, you will be connected to the Powerful Hidden Side of Your Mind. This pure positive side of your mind is more powerful than any of the emotions you know and you will have the immense creative capability in all phases of your life. All great men and women knew this secret and they created their lives on the above principles and achieved impossible feats.

Yes, I am going to tell you how to shift from force to the power zone. But before I start, I need to make sure everyone understands the difference between force and power. Do we know what is a zone and its importance in our lives?

Zone: Zone is an Energy Field around us which is created by our mind and body through thoughts, emotions, and perception. This energy field when positive, helps us to achieve our goals by giving us a feeling of fulfilment, joy, love, and bliss. When this energy field is negative then even if we achieve our goals, it leaves us with the feeling of sorrow, anger, guilt, and resentment.

Power Vs Force Zone:

This terminology Power and Force is made famous by the book “Power vs Force” by David R. Hawkins. In the logarithmic scale until the 200^th power of 10 (10^200), it is the force zone and above it i.e. from the 250^th power of 10 (10^250) is the Power zone. In simple terms, it means that the emotions which pull our energy field down, in the long run, are the emotions from the force zone, and emotions that increase our energy field are the emotions of the power zone. Another difference between Power and Force is that Power is self-sustainable and does not require outside support, on the other hand, force is not self-sustainable and requires outside support and energy.

So, Shame, Guilt, Apathy, Grief, Fear, Desire, Anger, and Pride are in Force Zone or these create the Force Zone. Courage, Neutrality, Willingness, Acceptance, Reason, Love, Joy, Peace, Enlightenment are in the Power Zone or they create the Power Zone.

Now the question is how to know which zone you are operating from?

To know this, you have to be aware of your emotions and feelings. While performing or thinking of activity, if you have emotions of Humiliation, Blame, Despair, Regret, Anxiety, Craving, Hate, and Scorn then you are in the force zone.

While performing or thinking of an activity if you have emotions of Affirmation, Trust, Optimism, Forgiveness, Understanding, Reverence, Serenity, Bliss, and Ineffable then you are in the power zone.

Even if you do not want to categorize your emotions or you are not aware of them then just keep a watch on your feeling. The feeling should be always towards happiness and joy to remain in Power Zone. If that shifts towards lethargy and sadness, then you are shifting towards force zone.

Now the question is how to Shift from Force to Power Zone at will?

1. Change your thoughts: When you find yourself shifting towards the force zone, just stop thinking about what you are thinking immediately, as this is the thought which is putting you in the force zone. Now change your thought and start thinking of something happy or joyful. This will put you back in the power zone right away. Sustain this thought for some time and then deal with your situation wisely.
2. Through Witnessing: By increasing your awareness, you will be able to know what puts you in the force zone and what takes you to the power zone. So, when your negative emotions are taking over, just watch them with acute attention. In this witnessing state, your negative thoughts will dissolve, and it will put you back in the power zone.
3. Through Meditation: Meditation is a great way to create a power zone or to become aware of it. You can create awareness and delete your fears in meditation.
4. Listening to Music: By listening to good classical music or by listening to calibrated gongs and bowls, you can shift your energy field from force to power. I have helped many people’s by bringing their minds back to the power zone with sound therapy. It is a fantastic, proven technique.
5. Through Alignment: By aligning your body through the Life Align process which I use, you can shift yourself from force to the power zone. In this process, a tag on your head, hands and legs create a positive vibration in your body and mind and you are instantaneously in the power zone.
6. Do what you Say or Think: When we are rooted in truth, we are always in the power zone. If we do what we say and say what we think, then we are aligned in our thoughts, words, and actions. This alignment creates a power zone.
7. Laughter Yoga: Laughter is the best medicine to put you in the power zone. So, laugh to reduce your stress and anger.
8. Yoga and Exercise: If you are creating a force zone through stress and lethargy then yoga or exercise is the best way to get into the power zone.

There are many more ways to lift and stay in the Power Zone and these are just a few easy ways that you can start practicing now to create a power zone.
