Stress Management Techniques
There are few techniques to overcome stress in my life.
1. Stop Serious Thinking. (Mentally arguing about situation like…I will say this if he says that)
2. No mental analysis and imagination of a situation. (Stress is not due to bad situations but thinking and fearing about those situations. What worse is that, they never happen in real)
3. Don’t bring your past into the present.
4. Don’t try to change the situations and people but deal with them.
5. Relaxation by doing things you like reading, listening music and going on a walk or long drive.
6. Weekend trips to different place alone can you give change to runaway from the routine work.
7. Don’t let office work or a single person take over your whole life.
8. Discover the YOGI in urself by developing a philosophy by which u can defend urself even if u r wrong.
9. And last but not least, develop a careless attitude towards life and people.

Life…we have to live…no other option for us
A person’s joy and depression regarding his life is the way he views himself and his life and also his attitude towards his own life.
The past and present good/bad periods of your life must not make you bitter but must remind you to take life easily.
“You have to learn to take your own life easily”.
Because if we see our life, there were many things u wanted for which u was eager to do anything even if it means losing something precious. There were many dreams when u was in school and in college. But the same thing has not much important for you now. Many times u got what u want, but was not as happy as expected after getting it. So as time passes and age changes, ur preference of aims and dreams changes. So, trouble not yourself for your past and for your future.
Enjoy the present. The NOW is the greatest gift that either we are here to receive or we are not. Excuses, Reasoning, Arguing on the past, people and situations, no matter how good and logical they may be, will not change your present. In our lives, we have only so much time to appreciate what is before us. If we miss it now, u miss it forever. So enjoy the present moment as it is, let the things may be whatever.

Loneliness
A major problem facing people today is grief and loneliness. The two often go together because many people grief over being lonely. Loneliness has become even more of a major issue than in the past but no one are ready to talk about it. Loneliness means not being alone; it being not yourselves as you are. Now everyone u see around with someone or the other, enjoying the company by doing something like going out, seeing movies and go for morning walks. But how many are ready to open up and discuss or talk about what they feel or think or going thru in their life. People fear to talk the truth, express what exactly they are thinking or feeling. They are also not able to tell others their problems because of the same. This is making a person to feel lonely even if he is among group of people always.
Getting on with people is same like getting on job. If you have lost a job, u may have to learn how to market yourself all over again or even relocate to a new and strange environment. Same is with the relationships. If you loose one, try to get new one.
Loneliness is not a sin. If you are lonely, don’t add feelings of guilt to your list of wounds.
Crisis always provokes change and change of this type like loosing an old friend or relationship in which u have invested a lot emotionally is very hard. But however painful it may be, change always brings new things into our life.
Hope is like an anchor that keeps us on course when we are being tossed to and fro, this way and that, by the storms of life.
Lean on yourself, trust self, be confident and rely on your own insights and understanding of relationships in your life. Recognize and acknowledge for yourselves the right and wrong things you did in that relationship.
Anyone can survive alone if you can counter those feelings with positive actions by doing things you like the most and treating yourselves well.
We can all find plenty to regret in our lives, but regret only produces more agony. When you have been hurt, the quicker you get involved in helping someone else, the better off you are going to be. Reaching out to other hurting people helps you forget about your own pains. But the most important thing is that you have to reach out to yourselves and see you don’t harm yourselves because you are feeling lonely at present.
Forgetting what happened in the past and straining forward to what lies ahead must be the goal of the hour.
Don’t be angry at anyone and don’t be angry at yourself. Do not waste your life being bitter. Depression steals a person’s energy making us apathetic and lethargic, desiring to do nothing. U have to face the truth bravely as it will have positive effect on our live.
When we look to others, expecting them to make our pain go away, we are making a mistake. First of all, people cannot give us everything we need. Second, expecting others to meet our personal needs for us places too much pressure on them also.
Not everything and every relationship in your life is over; just one part of it has ended. One relationship has passed; another can now begin - if you are willing to take action and ready to keep aside the emotional feeling out the past relationship.

Gandhi gave the real message of life: Obama
Barack Obama, American President who made history by getting elected as the first black President of the United States, has always seen Mahatma Gandhi as an inspiration who reminds him about the 'real message of life'.
Obama also flaunts his love to the apostle of peace by having a portrait of Mahatma at his Senate Office. "Through the power of his example and his own unshakable spirit, Gandhi inspired a people to resist oppression, sparking a revolution that freed a nation from colonial rule," the President had said. "Gandhi's significance is universal. Countless people around the world have been touched by his spirit and example. His victory in turn inspired a generation of young Americans to peacefully wipe out a system of overt oppression that had endured for a century. And more recently led to velvet revolutions in Eastern Europe and extinguished apartheid in South Africa," said Obama on his message on October 2, the birth anniversary of Gandhi.
Obama had said that he always looked to Mahatma Gandhi as an inspiration, because he embodies the kind of transformational change that can be made when ordinary people come together to do extraordinary things. "That is why his portrait hangs in my Senate office; to remind me that real results will not just come from Washington, they will come from the people," Obama, who won the historic presidential poll, had said.
He had said that while formulating his strategy to free India from the clutches of the then British rulers, Gandhi had a choice. "He (Gandhi) chose courage over fear," said Obama.

January 02 Happy New Year 2009
Finally, Year 2008 came to end and endless circle of time has brought us again in a “NEW” year. Although we move forward into new calendar year, we face so many problems backlogging in our lives. Though every year we make resolutions for the New Year, it is same again if we look at our past few year track record. In actual sense, if we perceive it closely, the problem we are facing are those backlogs we have kept for some many years…like reducing weight, learning a hobby, visiting a place or a friend or changing some personal behavior. It is unfortunate that we plan new things but forgot to solve the old problems and behaviors.
Life without the knowledge of self comes near to the death with every rising and setting of the sun. For us, sixty-seventy of age seems to be very long but we are already into the middle of that age. We don’t know how time passes so quickly? There is no power in the world which can bring back even a second of time which is passed? So, just consider yourself, how important is our life? How important is our time which waste without moulding ourselves according to the age and the skill and maturity it brings into our life. Most of the time we spend in sense gratification, totally ignoring the realities of the life and our age - trying to be someone or somewhere and not behaving according to our age. It’s not always the age of 16 is sweet and great, every age may it be 16, 46 or 66 brings with it, the same level of joy, style, decency, romance and responsibility and that is what we are missing in our lives. Everyone wants to be and behave like a 16 year old. Think how awkward it will be for a 50 year old person to behave like a 20 year boy. Just, look around; everyone is imitating the 20 year old guys.
Few people take New Year positively; they make resolutions to overcome their bad habits like smoking, drinking, weight reduction, etc.. Out of them many people are forced to break their resolutions in few days or weeks by their weak consciousness and desire of sense-gratification. But, atleast their desire to overcome their bad habits is appreciable. They know what shortcomings they have and want to overcome them but are forced to bow down in front of their habits. Some frustrated people take a resolution to never make any resolution in their lives….
We know in our heart that certain things are bad and we should leave them but unless we remove the old bad habits or problems from our lives, whatever new year resolutions we make in our lives will not gives us the real happiness we desire for.
So, let us make a resolution for this year:
Leave old bad habits and solve all the old problems in our life on a war basis. Let us clean up all the messed up things in our life from the past, then only can we expect our future to be with happiness, success and satisfaction.

Vipassana
Vipassana, which means to see things as they really are, is one of India's most ancient techniques of meditation. It was rediscovered by Gotama Buddha more than 2500 years ago and was taught by him as a universal remedy for universal ills. This non-sectarian technique aims for the total eradication of mental impurities and the resultant highest happiness of full liberation. Healing, not merely the curing of diseases, but the essential healing of human suffering, is its purpose.
Vipassana is a way of self-transformation through self-observation. It focuses on the deep interconnection between mind and body, which can be experienced directly by disciplined attention to the physical sensations that form the life of the body, and that continuously interconnect and condition the life of the mind. It is this observation-based, self-exploratory journey to the common root of mind and body that dissolves mental impurity, resulting in a balanced mind full of love and compassion.
The scientific laws that operate one's thoughts, feelings, judgments and sensations become clear. Through direct experience, the nature of how one grows or regresses, how one produces suffering or frees oneself from suffering is understood. Life becomes characterized by increased awareness, non-delusion, self-control and peace.

ISKCON - Akshaya Patra in Limca Book of Records
The Akshaya Patra Foundation has found a place in the Limca Book of Records for being the largest NGO-run school meal programme. Under the programme, over 9.7 lakh children studying in over 5,700 government, government-aided schools and day care centres in 16 locations in India are fed on any given day. The programme is run by the Akshay Patra Foundation in partnership with central and respective state governments, a release said here today.
"The entry into the Limca Book of Records, comes as a recognition of Akshaya Patra& achievement in enabling needy children to receive education even as they are fed at least one wholesome meal a day,"said Madhu Pandita Das of the Foundation. Under the programme, mid-day meals are provided in Bangalore, Hubli-Dharwad, Bellary, Mangalore and Mysore in Karnataka, Jaipur, Nathdwara and Baran in Rajasthan, Vrindavan and Mathura district in UP, Puri and Nayagarh in Orissa, Gandhinagar and Ahmedabad in Gujarat and Hyderabad and Visakhapatnam in Andhra Pradesh. The programme uses centralised, automated kitchens for cooking food which is then distributed to schools. The kitchens can cook about 100,000 meals in less than five hours with least human intervention.
WHY ISCKON STARTED AKSHAYA PATRA
Every year, 2.5 million children die in India, accounting for one in five deaths in the world. More than half of these deaths could be prevented if children were well nourished. India's progress in reducing child malnutrition is very slow. The proven path to helping the poor, is by educating them. Providing food works as an important factor that encourages education; this in turn enables overall development transforming lives and communities. A hungry child cannot be expected to have an urge for education. We provide nutritious meals to about 1 million children - with a vision to encourage education amongst the poor.
Many impoverished children performed poorly in school due to short attention spans associated with extreme hunger. Other children either did not enroll in school, or dropped out at a young age choosing to seek work during the school day to earn money to feed themselves and their families. Earlier, school meals was irregular and in many places non-existent. Responding to pressure from the people, the Supreme Court of India passed an order on November 28, 2001 which mandated: "Cooked midday meal is to be provided in all the government and government-aided primary schools in all the states." Akshaya patra partakes this responsibility.
HOW MUCH A MEAL COSTS
The Akshaya Patra program is conducted in partnership with the various State Governments and Central Government. All of these governments provide a subsidy to support about 50% of the running cost of the Akshaya Patra program. The Central Government support is routed through the respective State Governments. The summary of subsidies in different states, as on November 2008, are listed below:
Karnataka Rs.1.80 for students in class 1 to 7 + 100 gms of rice per day per student.Rs.2.20 for students in class 8 to 10 + 150 gms of rice per day per student
Uttar Pradesh Rs.2.00 for students in class 1 to 5Rs.2.50 for students in class 6 to 9
Rajasthan Rs.2.00 for students in class 1 to 5 + 100 gms grainsRs.2.50 for students in class 6 to 8 + 150 gms grains
Orissa Rs.2.38 for students in class 1 to 5 + 100 gms grainsRs.2.74 for students in class 6 to 8 + 150 gms grains
Gujarat Rs.2.00 for students in class 1 to 7 + 50 gms of rice + 50 gms of wheat
Andhra Pradesh Rs.3.00 for students in class 6 to 10 + 150 gms of rice
This program is also supported by industry houses, foundations, individuals and philanthropists for the balance of the running costs (about 50%) and for setting up and maintenance of the centralized kitchen infrastructure.
If anyone are interested in helping the poor children to get nutritious food and education, pls. contact ISKCON at your place or mail to infodesk@akshayapatra.org or call the toll free number 1800 425 8622.

A process of linking words

tirumalanath.migraine
Migraine headache is usually an intense pain occurring on one or both sides of the head. Most people with migraine headache feel the pain in the temples or behind eyes, ears or head, although any part of the head can be involved. Besides pain, migraine also can cause nausea, vomiting and sensitivity to light and sound. Some people also may see spots or flashing lights or have a temporary loss of vision.
Migraine can occur any time of the day, though it often starts in the morning. The pain can last a few hours or to days. Migraines are not a threat to your overall health, but can interfere with your day-to-day life.
Migraine headache may start due to many reasons and depends on person to person.
1. lack of sleep
2. improper dieting
3. high volume sounds and long hours of listening through headphones
4. Stress, Anxiety, Frustration, Anger, Sadness and Depression
5. Above all, Intensity of thoughts continuously.
Migraine do the have physical side but more on emotional level. If u r emotionally OK, then the effect of migraine or its intensity will be less. Medication is necessary as most of the times, it also happens to be trigger sometimes due to neuro problems. But it can be minimized to large extend by other methods.
Solutions:
1. Taking proper diet and exercising regularly.
2. Have good sleep and fresh air.
and
3. Try to practice meditation one hour every day.
(vipassana meditation is good. www.dhamma.org)
(Try Relaxation techniques or Self Hyponiusm for 30 minutes twice a day)
4. Read some books on spirituality which empowers u about the life and their problems.
Try to calm down ur lifestyle and go slow on urself. The demands u have on urself and try not to judge everything particularly about urself. 90% of our problems are due to our emotional setup and try to take life as it is rather than trying hard to change everything and more over yourself.

Tirumalanath
