A journey through The Himalayas.

This weekend was far more remarkable than we had actually planned. Everyone was very excited as we were going for camping in the lap of The Great Himalayas. The word "The Great" is correctly prefixed to it as it totally justifies with its attitude. Its ranges are never ending and stand tall, challenging you to dare reach to its height. As we got nearer and nearer, I could feel the tranquillity of the abode of snow as it literally means. At the camping spot, the holy Ganges was flowing with great persistence, teaching you to never give up, however, tough the time is. We went to the river to seek its blessings and make us pure by getting rid of our sins.

After having lunch, we went for a walk through the forest. The baby monkeys were clinging to their mothers as tight as they could and feeling safe in their presence. Nature has so much love filled in it. This is why great thinkers, poets, and successful people have probably come here to take inspiration whenever they have no clear path ahead of them. As we moved ahead, close to the river bank was a mesmerizing peacock. It was new to me because I had never seen animals moving so freely without any fear or restriction. But slowly it grew cold in the evening and we had to move to a hotel at Rishikesh.  At night, we went to explore the religious city of Rishikesh which holds in itself a rich cultural and religious history. Home to a number of Hindu temples, dating back to the Ramayana times, this city is famous for its spiritual smell in the air. Walking on the Laxman jhula over the holy river, the gushing sound of the Ganges told the great chronicles of the events and the recital of its holiness.

The time flew so quickly and the day was on the verge of getting over. The dark night commanded us to get back in the room. We were home after buying some souvenir for ourselves to always remind us of the beautiful memories and experiences the place had given us. Surely the place deserves a visit again as it remains unexplored even now and a lot of adventure sports is still left uncovered. The place is a must visit for everyone as it has in store something or the other for everyone.

Nothing is permanent in life

In life nothing is permanent, everything is temporary that means your sorrows and pain too have an end. Even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise. People take everything in life to be permanent love, hate, sorrow, friends, family and that is when they grow a tree of expectedness from others, and that is when they get hurt when the same tree mould with one's belief and trust fall without any warning unexpectedly and people get depressed isolated and hide their true identity behind a fake smile keeping every memories safe in a corner of their heart. Well its so common in us, its so natural in human. The only medicine or cure to this problem is that we start to believe that everything is temporary and happens for a reason and rather finding out the reason for what happened (fall of tree of expectedness) we should focus on the good things it happened for and what lies ahead. No this doesn't advocate to move on. Moving on is not the solution. It is like moving on from...

Quotes from Buddha's Life

Between the 6th and 4th century BCE, a man named Siddhārtha Gautama began to turn heads in Eastern India with his profound spiritual wisdom.  He was given the name “Buddha”, which literally means “The enlightened one”, and to this day we still receive tremendous insight from his teachings. Interestingly, Buddha never actually wrote any of his teachings down.  Similar to Jesus and Socrates, his method of teaching was verbal and communicative.  Oral traditions kept the wisdom of the Buddha alive until 400 years after his death when the first transcript of his teachings first emerged. His awakening occurred when he realized that you didn’t have to starve yourself and mortify your body, as was commonly practiced in India at that time to enhance spiritual clarity and wisdom.  When a young girl offered him some milk and rice pudding as an action of compassion, he realized that there was more to The Way than what he had been taught. He then ...
