In his book Reality Unveiled, Zaid Masri describes the Life Review process one goes through before being reincarnated. Don’t grieve. Anything you lose comes round in another form. ~ Rumi Masri presents evidence to establish that souls do reincarnate. In the fourth chapter, called The Path of the Soul, he writes about the process the soul undergoes before being born again. I quote, In […]
Contemplation is a tool to affect inner re-engineering. At times you want ideas to be simplified, stripped down to their essentials. For the condensed, concentrated drops of thought to fall into the still pool of your consciousness, merge with the fluidity there and subtly and delicately change your inner landscape. Mull over them, disagree with them, engage […]
Questions can help you change the direction of your thoughts. In a conversation between two people, the person who asks the questions- and is willing to listen- is the person who controls the conversation. Questions are the negotiator’s most effective tool.

The celebration is to honor the birthday of India’s second president Dr Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, a teacher par excellence. It is doubtful though, that Dr Radhakrishnan could have imagined what teachers many decades after him would be like, or […]
It was World Environment Day on 5th June. The day came and went without too much fanfare. Some token tree plantations, lots of photo-ops, the same hackneyed speeches and that was that. You more or less waved the day a desultory adieu, happy to throw the faint tinge of guilt off and pack it up […]
I affirm that… My attitude grows happier and healthier every single day. If you live consciously, if you try to bring consciousness to every act that you go through, you will be living in a silent, blissful state, in serenity, in joy, in love. Your life will have the flavor of a festival. That is […]
