Visible Dependence – Gateway To – Invisible Faith & Trust
“Visible Dependence – Gateway To – Invisible Faith &
Trust”
#Nice
to people #Respect #Mental Health #Happiness
It is our fundamental desire to feel independent,
self-sufficient, comfortable, and most importantly powerful. Ego, Self Esteem
and Self Confidence, in different degrees, are the key drivers of such desire. “No
man (anyone..) is an island” is a famous
anecdote indicating the ever importance of interconnected relationships.
While depending on “other than self” may
sometimes or most times considered “below par”, I have seen some people
excel while collaborating with others. It always helped me to introspect on
this and strike a right balance. We don’t want to be a parasite on others,
always extracting benefits selfishly centred. Of course, this feeling could also
be a driver, in some situations, to prevent depending on others.
What is critical is “Visible
Dependence” – Dependence of a perceivable nature, heartfelt, by the source.
The provider feels elated being of great help to the receiver! Whether, in
material sense, it mattered or not, what is important is the feeling of the
source. Of course, here again comes in the opposite – the false perception induced
by the receiver, not heartfelt!! Let me reflect..
Reflections
We all would have been in many such
situations in our lives - depending – really depending on others. We may have
our reflections too. I too have been!!
Recently, at the life’s crossroad, was I
– faced with one of the major heart-touching moments or phases. That’s when, I
really felt the importance of Visible Dependence. Yes, I could have
handled it all alone, with the excellent support system, we are provided with.
Still, absolutely letting loose such temptations and really depending on my
family and friends for physical, material, and emotional support – saw a new life
blossom, saw a new relationship set in, saw a newer connection draw up!!
Let me be honest – it’s probably one of
the fewer times in my recent memory, when I literally let myself freely depend,
with no inhibitions. I realised joy in this newfound state. Some expressions below
may help summarizing the actions and feelings:
· Wilful Dependence – Even
if I was in reasonable helpless state, I still overcame my psychological temptation
of being independent and visibly offered myself to depend.
· Enjoy the Dependence – Enjoying
pleasure in each step of dependence – conversation, physical support, and
motivational upkeep – and more importantly, it was a painkiller of some sort.
· See the Joy in Others and Self – This
led to a meditational self – joyful self, when I felt so much of help and
concern was available to me in critical times. Mutual feel of “nice and blessed”!!
· New life – All
this led to a newer life ahead and yes, let me be frank, old habits die hard –
but at least more aware and conscious – consciously depend, Visibly Depend
– generates more trust and faith to build further!!
Thoughts?!
Sure, each one has another way in
your system -Happy to learn on your system too and how you feel it works!
More importantly - hearty best wishes to
happiness always!!
Look forward ::: Humbly
yours

Ramayana - Bhakthi Rasam - Episode 3
Ramayana - Bhakthi Rasam
Ramayana is a soulful joy - full of values and ample scope for reflection.
"Shravanam - Mananam - Nidhidhyasanam" ==> the steps to practice as per vedantic principles, could easily be applied here. Once learnt / heard, there is lots of reflection of the same to be followed.
These sets of recordings focus the mananam part, having seen the episodes again and again, concentrating on specific aspects of our day to day life, that inspire me.
Episode 2 - the last recording - we reflected on the first 2 phases of Bhakthi that Bharatha travelled -
(1) Krodham - the instant anger on hearing the unjust and illegitimate action by his mother and on top of it, presenting the same to Bharatha, as if they were to his benefit, despite the whole of Ayodhya immersed in deep sorrow and anguish.
(2) Moham - the deepening of the reality and Bharatha realising that the perception of others could attach him to the evil act of his mother; thus feel of guilt as he faces and transacts with many of his people
In this episode, we travel further with Bharatha, a noble soul and a great devotee of Shri Rama. The next phases blossom as Bharatha moves towards realizing Bhakthi:
(3) Vivekam - Actions arising out of earnest desire to recover the lost ground and get back the love and presence of his brother, Shrirama
(4) Vairagyam - Deeper actions persisting with the help of all the well wishers and people, who are like minded. The goal is unique and unified - to bless Ayodhya with Ramarajya and undo all the unjust happenings so far.
I am enjoying the travel of Bharatha and the support / his discussions with various gurus / as well as Shri Rama and thus realize how sacred it is for Bhakthi to dawn on. Let us keep reflecting on this and next episode, to follow, leads to the final realization Bhakthi as well as the reflections / learnings for our daily life.
Enjoy the EPISODE 3 and please write back to me, for feedback - I shall be blessed - Jai Shri Ram!!
Humbly yours

“Be Nice to people and Be Nice to yourself”
“Be Nice to people and Be Nice to yourself”
# Nice to people # Respect #
Mental Health #Happiness
I heard this recently from our CEO in
an online call. While it is not a new position as it is all around empathy, but
the way the statement was sewn within the current context stuck me like
lightning strike.
It is not unusual for me or most of us
to be nice to people more than occasionally. Equally it is not unusual for me
or most of us not to be nice to ourselves, albeit occasionally!
Reflections
I have been reflecting on this at a
deeper level. Ego, Jealousy and Envy, many a time, drive us away from nicety
when being with people. Have an argument with another person and dragging the
argument for long, especially holding on to a position, without even a
temporary forbearance generally leads to bad taste lingering for a substantial
period. Even, at the face value, if one feels having won the argument but once sunk
in, the feeling is generally of a loser. What is the use of such win or loss
when it does not mean being “Nice to Self” - leave along being “Nice to Others”!
Future ahead
In my professional email signature
section, I tagged this statement not just to be a tag line alone
though! It reminds me and the receiver of the communication on the impactful
statement. Frankly, even in last one month, since I inserted this tag line, I
could once internally question myself on a certain transaction and instead of
reprimanding myself or feeling guilty, I resolved to be more consistent in
future. So, it works - yes it works!!
Thoughts?!
Sure, each one has a check-scale
instilled in your system - physically, physiologically or emotionally. Happy to
learn on your system too and how you feel it works!

Ramayana - Bhakthi Rasam - Deeper Reflection
Ramayana - Bhakthi Rasam
Ramayana is a soulful joy - full of values and ample scope for reflection.
"Shravanam - Mananam - Nidhidhyasanam" ==> the steps to practice as per vedantic principles, could easily be applied here. Once learnt / heard, there is lots of reflection of the same to be followed.
These sets of recordings focus the mananam part, having seen the episodes again and again, concentrating on specific aspects of our day to day life, that inspire me.
One such key theme is Bhakthi - loosely translated as "Devotion". I always wondered how and what is Bhakthi, when seeing great Bhakthas of the ancient and Indian history. How they, themselves, being great saints and personnel in their space, happened to be true Bhakthas. Veera Hanuman, Bhaktha Prahlada, Maa Yashoda, Gopikas, Trimurthis of Karnatak Sangeet - hearing of their stories amazes me - each of them are inspiring and authoritative souls but they were humble Bhakthas propagating their Guru's teachings and principles.
This recording is about one such evolution - how in Ramayana, through the happenings, I see the evolution of Bhakthi - what is the route map! Don't get me wrong - this is not an analysis, through head, but a heartfelt feeling. from my heart and emotion. Bharatha, the inspirer in this case!!!
Enjoy the episode and please write back to me, for feedback - I shall be blessed - Jai Shri Ram!!
