No.  There is a bigger\nprison.  That is \u201cwhat you think about you\u201d.  What others think\nabout you is able to cause you suffering because what you think about\nyou is able to be altered by what others think about you.  If what\nyou think about you stays stable, others\u2019 thoughts will not be able\nto hurt you.  In this article, we will see how diluted ideas about\nbody, mind and consciousness cause enormous damage to human beings.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3>The Prison Cell<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>What\nothers think about you, if you think that is a prison, what you think\nabout you is a cell inside the prison where you are locked.  It is\nmuch more suffocating.  What others think about you impacts only your\nexternal life, what you think about you impacts directly your body\nand mind.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>You\nneed to be aware of what the society makes you believe as to what\nyour body, mind and consciousness is all about.  Most of our\ntraditional concepts about body, and health have been ruthlessly\ndestroyed and replaced by a set of ideas that only support the\nexploitation of human beings.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3>Misnomer: Alternative Medicine<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>All\nthe ancient systems of living a healthy life just by handling your\nfood properly, herbs, leaves, the natural things, is called\n\u201calternative medicine.\u201d  And swallowing these pills and chemicals\nand putting you in more and more trouble is called \u201cmainstream\nmedicine.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Till\nthe true science about life is taught to humanity, humanity is not\ngoing to come out of its addiction to medicines.  Why do they call it\nalternate medicine when it has been traditional for thousands of\nyears, whereas use of chemicals has been around for only one or two\nhundred years?<\/p>\n\n\n<h3>All vs Mall<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>There\nis a question \u201cwhy in India they didn\u2019t build hospitals, schools,\nhow do you call them as evolved civilization?\u201d  In every village,\nthe largest building of that village is the common utility building\nwhere we had school, hospital, cinema, art gallery, life science\nteaching place, and ultimately, teaching enlightenment.  That place\nis known as Temple.  It is not just a mall, it is All.  Everything\nabout life is done there, whether storing the grain, teaching\nprinciples, or medical care, everything is done there.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Our\nlifestyle was such we did not need so much of hospitalization.  From\nthe beginning, we were taking care of ourselves, and a very important\nthing, when time comes, we were gracefully able to leave, say bye\nbye, because we know we will come back.  We were not that poor\npsychologically or consciously.  Only when you have only one body,\nwhen you want to hold on to that one body, you need so much of\nmedical care.  We just know, when we need, we will make the body\nrecover, when body is too damaged, come on, drop it, pick up another\none.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3>The Ultimate Richness<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Right\nconcepts about body, right faith, cognition about mind, right bio\nmemory, the right concepts about body, mind, consciousness, is THE\nrichness, ultimate richness.  Right ideas you carry about you gives\nyou the experience of Oneness.  Neither by building hundreds of\nhouses for yourself, not by building companies for yourself, or by\naccumulating more and more cars, Oneness is not experienced by all\nthis.\n<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Buying\na house or car, let that just be utility, not the goal of your life.\nIf the utility becomes goal of your life, you live in stupidity where\nelongating your life becomes goal.  No. Purpose of your life should\nbe goal, meaning of life should be goal, not elongating. If you know\nthe meaning, you will know right number of years to live.\n<\/p>\n\n\n<p>\nNumber\nof years you live does not define your success, the meaning of your\nlife defines your success.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Based on satsangs delivered by rare Living Incarnation Bhagavan Sri Nithyananda Paramashivam<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Oneness Gives Extraordinary Powers\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gv7bDtcm528?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n<p>See\nother Satsangs at<em>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/youtube.com\/lifeblissfoundation\">http:\/\/youtube.com\/lifeblissfoundation<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Facebook quote says \u201cone of the biggest prison human beings suffer is what other human beings think of them\u201d.
