Mind is a very unique thing in this world... its there but no one can see it...just like god... mind it am talking about "mind" not brain....
The mind has the power to control your body & you have the power to control your mind (with your heart). Its strange no, how your mind controls your actions??
Just give it a thought what happenes when there is a lot of chaos in your room... when you sit in a room filled with chaos how irritatedyou feel?? when you are not able to find anything in that room?? when you are not able to walk in the room because of the clutter...how does it feel??/ messy?? irritated??
How would you feel when there is a lot of chaos in your mind?/?
Even more irritated...when your mind is handling a chaotic situation...you forget to be happy.... you forget to be nice...you take tension...
when you are with friends you are not enjoying their company... when you are with your lover you are thinking of an assignment to be done..you are there physically..but mentally you are somewhere else... You are not able to fully enjoy the moment you are in ...this is where peace of mind comes in....
If your mind is at peace...you'll enjoy with your friends, you'll enjoy everymoment with your loved one's... you'll be able to do your work, assingnments etc...in half of the time...you wont have to search for a reason to be happy when you are at peace with yourself... having peace in your mind is a state of happiness in itself...
You dont have to look for happiness in material things...
There are few tips by which you can achieve peace of mind to some extent...
1. Do not interfere in others' business you have your own life and things to take care of..why get one more burden on that???
2. Do not procrastinate and never regret stop procrastinating things , it only adds to the guilt feeling deep inside your mind...
3. Never leave the mind vacant Empty vessels make most of the noise...so dont keep your mind free..
4. Stay away from negative conversations and from negative people.
5. Don't hold grudges. Learn to forget and forgive. Nurturing ill feelings and grievances hurts you and causes lack of sleep.
6. Learn to be more patient and tolerant with people and events.
7. Don't take everything too personally. Some emotional and mental detachment is desirable. Try to view your life and other people with a little detachment and less involvement. Detachment is not indifference, lack of interest or coldness. It is the ability to think and judge impartially and logically. Don't worry if again and again you fail to manifest detachment. Just keep trying.
8. Practice some concentration exercises. This will help you to reject unpleasant thoughts and worries that steal away your peace of mind.
9.Learn to practice meditation. Even a few minutes a day will make a change in your life.

Values : Personal Treasure
What are Values??
Values are the beliefs of a person,The priciples one follow in life are the values of a person. These are inherited by the family & one can even have their own value set different from their family.
Values of Indians are different from anywhere else in the world. Value is what you mean to others & value is what you see in others. Make yourself valuable for others.We are here in this world for a purpose & not for the material wealth. This will remain here we have to take with ourselves our karma. Our karma will decide our faith after this life is over.
We had a subject in school "DIVINITY" a word derived from the word Divine which means something which is sacred just like GOD.... This subject was devoted for our religios knowledge. That time we used to think that why is this?? This is such a waste of time & all...but now I've realised its Value. The value of the knowledge given in those classes. Once our techer told us that there are "84,00,000 junia" that means 84 lac species of living beings including the smallest insect living in this world. We have to take birth again and again to pay back our Debt of Karma . Debt of karma is nothing but or bad karma, it can be concious or unconcious. Our teacher also told us a way out of this cycle or birth n rebirth.
She told us to pray to GOD daily. When we pray to GOD daily, In our Balance Sheet of Karma he Credits us with the good deeds & Writes - off our Debt.
You must be thinking why I am telling this story in a write describing value?? right??
Now Let me tell you the importance of Prayer in Ceating your personal treasure that is value.
While we pray, God sits on his Chair and listens to our prayers himself & he listens to everything that is going inside your mind. He shows you way out for everything. Value comes when you value others presence, others feeling. Everyone is unique,everyone is special. You have to accept everyone as they are. when you accept others you are happy. When others accept you as you are you are happy.
When you see a problem don't take tension, You'll get a solution & if you won't then what is the need to worry.Right.
Now when you pray to HIM he listens to your problem & solves it in the best possible way..
Value is Valuing yourself & others.
Value is Respecting yourself & others.
Value is Being patient when talking to your parents even when you know they are wrong and you are right.
Value is Giving happiness to others.
Value is Making someone smile [:)]

Immunity of India to Global Financial Crisis(GFC)
Global Finacial Crisis.. A buzz word today on everyones mouth.. Everyone is taling about it, the market is crashing, meargers and aqusitions of leading firms of U.S.,bankruptcy of Lehmen Brothers. All this is related to GFC.
What is GFC?
It started with the sub prime crisis which tiggered out in the U.S.
sub Prime lending crisis was when banks started giving loans for buying propert to the people in U.S. without ensuring their secured return. This Carelessness resulted in defaults, the initial few defaults were overlooked which resulted in a increasing number of defaults. The increase in number of defaults meant that the money that was given as loans by banks has sunk. This created a Bad debt for the banks and the amount of bad debt was so big that it lead to huge losses to big banks.
This sub-prime Crisis was jus a trailer and the big picture was yet to be seen.
The sub prime crisis showed its effects after a year which can be seen in the crash down of the U.S. economy.
The losses to the U.S. banking system has gone up to $1.4 trilion ( source: IMF), the figure is still rising. The crisis has jus hit the west coast of India till now. The sensex rose to about eight folds since 2003 to the begining of 2008, but now it is down by 40% from its peak. (ET).
GFC Impact on India
First effect has been seen on the sensex. The banking system is also influenced by the global finacial crisis.
" The Collapse of Lehman Brothers can lead to some tightness in credit in India, but the government will provide coordinated funding where needed. " - Finance Minister , P. Chdambaram.
The effect in India is yet not that pronounced as it has been in countries like U.K. , Belgium , Ieland, Spain, japan. This can be due to India's proximity to the U.S. market as well as its closed economy.
Before the GFC hit the Global Market , india was facing a problem of inflation , rising cost of living, increase in crude oil price.
This has been tackled by the RBI, It has reduced the Repo Rate from 9% to 7.5%. This cut has injected 1.25lac crore rupees in the indian market to ease liquidity.
The inflation has eased a bit.
Despite the GFC & its impact, India is seen as a growing and promising economy. Indian emerging markets has attracted more importance from all over the world.
"The Asia-Pacific region, particularly India, is one of the attaractive places for grwoth. There is a lot of wealth created in India."
-John Thain, Chairman & CEO, Merrill Lynch, May 2008
"We have been active in advisory, and in private equity (in India), where we have invested over a billion dollars over the past year… the thing that attracts us is not the size of an economy but the growth of an economy”
- Lloyd Craig Blankfein, Chairman & CEO, Goldman Sachs, November 2007
“Our management has told me that, in a very controlled, healthy and gradual way, they would like to significantly expand the Asian operations”

Librate Yourself From your owm fear
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.
We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.
It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."
- Marianne Williamson
