TOWARDS HEALTHIER & HAPPIER LIFESTYLE

TOWARDS HEALTHIER & HAPPIER LIFESTYLE

Dear Friends,

Today, I wanna share with you some ideas towards the Healthier & Happier Lifestyle.

1. OUR FOOD AS OUR MEDICINE

We all agree that prevention is better than cure; then, why don’t we take care of our body beforehand instead of trying to cure it after allowing diseases to occupy us? Our food is our best medicine. Instead of depending on costly medicines produced mostly from unnatural chemicals, why don’t we make our food our medicine eating more natural & nutritious fruits, vegetables, nuts, whole grains instead of depending on meat, processed food, supplementary vitamins & other medicines?

2. OUR DRINKS AS OUR MEDICINE

Why don’t we turn to more natural drinks like water, fruit juice, vegetable juice, rice milk, oat milk, soya milk, herbal tea etc instead of drinking soda, cold drinks, alcoholic drinks etc?

3. ACTIVITY MEANS ALIVE

Activity is the symptom of being alive and inactivity is the symptom of dying or death. It means, if we want to be alive, we should lead a dynamic life always engaging to some activities around, instead of lazing away in sloth. Walking, cycling, exercising, meditation, swimming, cleaning, washing, arranging, organizing, gardening, cooking, serving, reading, browsing internet etc are all good dynamic activities while away from professional work.

4. BETTER BE SPIRITUAL & RICH

Material things can never represent the real you. You are unique as yourself and should reflect your unique qualities as a human being. If you cannot be a good human being with your original spiritual qualities, then, you are missing the best of yourself in you. Your big house, big car, costly gadgets, furniture, clothes, jewelry & other belongings cannot represent you as a good person in life. The day you die, all your material assets become meaningless to you, but your spiritual assets will remain with you leading you to a better next birth. Then, isn’t it wiser to give more importance to your more lasting assets of spiritual qualities than putting all your efforts to accumulate transient material assets? However, it is always better if you can be spiritual & rich at the same time.

5. LIVING OUR BEST IN THE PRESENT

We can’t live in the past nor can we live in the future unless we live at present!  So, it’s waste of time & energy for us to keep on thinking about the past whether good or bad and also to dream too much for the future instead of living our present life fully & happily, the best way we can right now. So, stop living in the shadow of the past glory of your ancestors and also stop braging about the possible glory of the future generations; instead live your best & happy life in the present.

6. LIVING IN UNIVERSAL FRIENDSHIP

By now, at this advanced stage of human evolution spiritually & materially, there is no need for physical fights, battles, wars for survival like our ancestors did in the past. Wars are totally useless exercises of the past based on false ego of national domination, racial superiority, color colonization, expanding kingdom & imperialism, for imposing political ideologies or for the greedy control of world’s resources  etc. As of now the global awakening of oneness of humanity show us the way of the people’s better & happier way of living by helping one another instead of dividing humanity into the minority exploiters & the majority exploited of the past that only led to hatreds, conflicts, wars & sufferings in the world. Now, we have the good opportunity for us all to live happily together as fellow human beings in universal friendship.

7. SPIRITUALITY IS THE SOLUTION FOR ALL PROBLEMS

All the world problems are due to people’s lack of spirituality & exercising them among the fellow people and also in connection with other living beings & nature. If we want a heavenly world, spirituality should be the basis of all the activities in the world, then, there will be no problem in the world!

What is spirituality?

Spirituality simply means having the qualities of LOVE, PURITY, CLEANLINESS, DUTY, SINCERITY, EMPATHY, NON-INJURY, EQUITY, UNITY, PHILANTHROPHY, JUSTICE, HAPPINESS etc and applying these qualities in our day-to-day life while dealing with our fellow human beings, other living beings & nature around us.

Happiness for all!
