Inner Peace- A necessity in life...!!!

Anger on the face, irritation in the voice, sadness in the eyes and deep inside the soul that cries. This is what happens when you lose inner peace.
Many of us don't even realise when we come to face this state in life. We think its a normal and some external factors are just bothering us. Its true and most of the time it is because of someone else. The fact that life is cruel and so are the people is the one I personally believe to be very true.

The saddest part is its mostly because of "SOMEONE ELSE" that such a situation occurs.
The question that generally occurs to me is "Why is that we get so involved with others that their actions harm us ? " Its hard to answer this as we all are humans and all of us have feelings. But in some cases actions of some random people also end up disturbing us.

This is the time of retrospection when we need to set the priorities and make our own self understand that its us who has to control on who and how things affect us.
Never let the behaviour of others disturb the peace of your mind...!!! Your peace is what depends on yourself. Now the thought that comes in my mind is "how to keep your inner peace intact? " The best answer that cones to my mind is "IGNORE". Just ignore the things that doesn't matter in life and things that act as a distraction in your life. Its definitely not that easy but it surely is very important. The path to inner peace starts from this learning.
This takes time and a lot of time. Its a struggle in the beginning but it is very important. Start enjoying your own company and make sure you live it to the fullest and cherish it...!!!!

7 things to love about Dehradun...!!!

Dehradun, often called as Doon Valley, geographically located in the State of Uttarakhand and situated in the foothills of Himalyas is one of the cities I just love belonging to. Being away for sometime has made me me miss the city and here I jot down few things that I most remember about Dehradun.

SCENIC BEAUTY AND WEATHER

The scenic beauty of Dehradun is mesmerising. From the valley the look of the mountains all around and on the outskirts the peace and look of the city is just beyond what words can describe. And how can i forget the look of Dehradun from Mussorie road, it is something that most of feel is just beautiful.

The weather is just awesome. Rain, clouds, sun all are in the best proportion.

HANGOUT ON MUSSORIE ROAD

The famous Mussorie road and maggi points which are one the best points to hangout and recollect memories and create few more new rememberable ones.

FAMOUS INSTITUTIONS

IMA, FRI, IIP etc  being the major attractions which add to the heritage and popularity of dehradun. Both these institutions have beautiful structures.

MAIN MARKET

Paltan bazar can never be replaced by malls. The evening strolls is also inviting to the youngsters to do some window shopping and enjoy a ice-cream at Gaylords.

WATER FALL

How can I forget the water springs. Shastradhara, Gucci pani, Lachhiwala and various springs like Shikhar falls, Bhatta falls attract a lot of people to enjoy in midst of day routines.

PEACE

The peace of the city is just amazing for meditations and the calmness attracts a lot of people to have Dehradun as a place to rejoice.

OUTSKIRTS AND NERABY PLACES

A few kilometres drive and you can go to the well known Mussorie, Dhanaulti and its outskirts , Rishikesh and its beautiful surroundings and also Ponta sahib cannot be forgotten.

The stroll on the mall road that one can never say a 'NO' to.

These are just the few things that people who have stayed in Dehradun will agree with. Each one of us who has spent some time may that be days or years in Dehradun will always cherish going back

PS: This post is dedicated to all Dehradun Lovers, so called Doonites.

Power of Solitude

Solitude, silence, isolation all these words have different meaning and play a different role in different spheres of life. Sometimes we hate all these, we want company of people and presence of people around us become our priority whereas at some other time we crave for peace.

Solitude is necessary for us to attain the best level of ourselves. To understand ourself we need to understand the power of silence and the magic that it can lead to. The peace of mind can make miracles happen. It can make us discover deep secrets. It reveals the real meaning of life and our living,

A calm and peace mind can only have stable thoughts and clear vision is a must to be an achiever. A person with stability can only deal with the pressure and make correct decisions and be sure about his goals.

A person who confronts the enchanting and spellbinding nature of solitude can experience the pleasure of good company.  When you meet yourself, know your positives and negatives then it becomes much easier to bear with the people around you and know what you are actually looking for.

Solitude is generally misinterpreted with loneliness. They both are two completely different terms. Solitude is pleasant whereas loneliness is painful. Solitude has power to give while loneliness has the power to take. Solitude has the calmness but loneliness is turbulent. Also, it is not easy to differentiate between them when the mind is not stable.

Each one of us at some time feel the urge to experience solitude and believe me (from my personal experience) that it is just amazing. It helps to connect ourselves to higher levels of spirituality and takes away a great deal of distractions with it.

In the end, I would like to describe in just one line

"Solitude is Bliss...!!!"
