Peace

A real peace is free from ones own conflicts. In other words, it is free from war between emotions and intellect. When we lead our life by buddhi or intellect, only then contentment is possible. Contentment or peace is the real happiness and only then, love is possible. I mean unconditional love which gives safety and security to others. Love always comes with feeling of giving (not taking). I love you means I’m willing to give or sacrifice for you with full happiness.

Pleasures are just pleasures and nothing wrong with it but they are very limited. We do need them sometimes to keep life juicy. If we stuck with ever changing emotions or conflicting desires, only confusion prevails. Especially as we grow older, we should learn to keep distance from emotions. Else family, society or world will not tolerate us. I see that everywhere.

Clarity is something beyond emotions. Some examples of the day to day emotions which handicap us are morning laziness to wake up very late, procrastination, emotional expectations from others, attachment, being afraid of what others think about us, don’t feel like eating, don’t feel like sleeping etc. we are human beings and we do have emotions. But
if we are not aware of our feelings that trap us, we might lose ourselves and it will affect our health.

How to be aware?
 1. Everyday spend some time for ourselves
2. Being in the company of people who are clear and balanced.
3. Makes choices based on clarity.
