Development/ Development:

When corporate and business talk about people development & Capacity development programs, they invariably focus on some skills development programs. However to bring any sustainable impact in people development attention focus should be given to both inner self, which is attributes development; and outer self of skills development.

In Mahayana Buddhist tradition, Meditation has two aspects: first, there is familiarization with the workings of the , which is what is commonly developed through ; and, second, on the basis of becoming familiar , there is the cultivation of certain qualities and potentials, which is what is understood as training. In other words, there is insight based on observation that leads to wise discernment of what to do!

To achieve in any field, this 'Serviceable mind' (Stable, concentrated mind) is imperative.

Flight of Freedom πŸ¦β€πŸ”₯

Organizations and competitive businesses are focused on elevating the excitement- and drive-based emotions associated with pride in accomplishment, owning, and controlling.
This striving, getting, having, achieving, and owning is almost like an addiction, it constantly over stimulates our dopamine and sympathetic nervous system.

The constant pursuit of material possessions or money πŸ’°, status, or recognition, and so on can be problematic sometimes. Some people can only feel good if they're constantly achieving or satisfying certain drives. These pursuits can be grinding and exhausting leading to ill mental health.

Business models and people strategy are constantly stimulating the competitive mind & excitement- and drive-based emotions leading to unregulated competition in the teams. Unregulated drive can promote callousness and indifference towards oneself and others around.

So while the drive system is important to achieve organizational goals, we have to be careful that it doesn't get out of balance. It therefore makes a lot of sense for businesses and to pursue employee rejuvenation workshops from time to time..

A workshop on Mindfulness can help.....
and training are the two wings that will give you the flight of Freedom. πŸ¦β€πŸ”₯

Understanding our mind is perhaps one of the greatest challenges for modern science and each of us personally. It is the human mind that generates outstanding achievements in science, medicine, arts and engineering, but it is the same mind that can produce the most awful atrocities and acts of greed.

It is our mind that will creates grasping, selfishness, pitting, collaboration conflicts; or an open, reflective, cooperative, and sharing approach to life's difficulties.

Imagine a scenario of a Doctor seeing a new patient. First, Doctor must pay attention to the pain and suffering of their patients in order to identify the root cause of it. However, once they have pinpointed the problem, they then turn their attention to what will relieve it. They draw on their knowledge and experience in order to prescribe a treatment that will bring about healing. (Deep study and Understanding is imperative)

Developing Mindfulness and Self-awareness is like becoming our own Doctors and healers. We cultivate and develop the ability to engage with what is painful and seek to understand its roots. It is what Buddhism talks about in its doctrine of the 'Four Noble Truths'.

It is our minds that are the source of our own personal experiences of happiness and joy, or anxiety, misery and despair.
Knowing the causes and conditions leading to happiness or misery is important.

So the practices of Mindfulness is about Knowing (self awareness).....when does the mental affliction arise, when is the mind more focused, when is it dull, when is it agitated, when is it whole; and the clarity about how it becomes so!, what are causes, what brings about the change in the state of our minds!

Mindfulness is a millennium old method of human development.

As per researches conducted, the four main neural pathway meditation and Mindfulness practices transforms are :-

1) First, your reactivity to disturbing events pacifies significantly; I.e. your ability to recover from stress improves significantly.

2) second, your brain system for compassion and empathy turns out to be remarkably ready for an upgrade.

3) Third, your circuitry for attention also improves in several ways, obviously since the very practice of Mindfulness aims to retain our brain to focus on object of meditation.

4) Fourth, the neural system of our very sense of self gets altered making us more stable emotionally.

The Wild Elephant -

I just read a good post by someone, who wrote about a technique for managing focus; it Says 25 minutes of uninterrupted work followed by 5 minutes of break, and keep repeating it in batches of 3-4.

My take:- Most of the people with distractibility problems will never get to know when the mind is distracted. If you can be aware when the mind is distracted and when it is focused, you will never have to worry about retention of your attention any which ways. Awareness is itself a solution to the problem of distraction.

Mind is compared to an Elephant; wild it has the capacity to destroy, however if you can tame and domesticate this wild Elephant, it can help you remove big boulders & stones on your path, help clear the jungle for you. is the bullhook (ankush) for controlling the Elephant.

The renowned American Philosopher and Psycholgist, William James had observed -

"The faculty of voluntarily bringing back a wandering attention, over and over again, is the very root of judgement, character and will.
An education which should improve this faculty would be an education par excellence."
He also declared that no such method exist of which he is aware of.

However, Indian meditative contemplatives had figured this out almost 3-4 millennium ago. The very objective of Mindfulness practices is to make your mind focused and concentrated.

I can pitch in from both angles, scientific as well as spiritual. it's a matter of perspective. The truth is we are dealing with . All your neurosis- fear, anxiety, worry; as well as all your , , arise in the mind. The very mind that can imagine, visualize, can have creative thoughts. Your mind makes you do everything, pleasant and unpleasant. When you fight with your spouse or your office colleagues, your mind brings that to occur; When you don't get your work done that is also your mind. By always following our mind, we have messed up many things in life.

I can show you how to make your mind (concentrated) through practices of . Once you achieve this stillness of mind, you can than direct it to achieve your personal , , , jovial relationship, development.
It is by the very act of seeing mind with mind (perceiving....not seeing), that you free yourself from the tyranny of your thoughts/mind.

From scientific perspective, these are train exercises, working on your prefrontal cortex, shrinking your amygdala (reactivity), pacifying your stress harmones (cortsol) And what not! From spiritual perspective, it is conquering Maya (mind).

My recommendation- Have a firsthand experience of it, personally it should not matter to you, how practices transforms the neural pathway of the . If it works for you, it is good for you.....

Greetings on International Yoga Day:

I have been practicing inner yoga for almost 14-15 years now. some years prior to practicing inner yoga, I also had some years spend in understanding pranayam and asanas.
Many a times I have wondered, why such profound and potent techniques of human development get lost in different times in different Era. These techniques are almost 3-4 millennium old, and yet the society in general is still so in a state of confusion of what yoga is!
But then it's OK....one has to learn A,B,C...before they move on to sentence making and paragraph writings. The problem is that all of us get stuck in contrived yoga for the rest of our lives, where as there has to be a transition leading us in to natural yoga.

For instance, breathing in-out is not pranayam. Pranayam in it true sense , is to restrain, abide and diffuse inner winds into the central channel. But in the name of pranayam, people do all sorts of breath manipulation.
My personal opinion! "when system is running on autopilot, manual override is not a very good idea" , unless ofcourse you have to do some damage control....Let the system be, it is more intelligent than you can imagine, if you do not interfere much in it's working, body and mind has ways to sort itself out. Mind/body in it's natural state is self healing.

Yoga in it's true sense is the union of emptiness and bliss....Happy Yoga Day.

May you be blessed with authentic yoga, have a cherished, joyful life ahead. πŸ™

Genesis of Geniuses: πŸ˜‡

is a potential we all share - each of us with our own unique capacity for creativity, requiring only the power of sustained attention to unlock it!
Geniuses of all kinds excel in their for sustained voluntary attention. Just think of the greatest musicians, mathematicians, scientists, and philosophers throughout history- all of them, it seems, have had an extraordinary to focus their with a high degree of clarity for long periods of time. A mind settled in such a state of alert equipoise is a fertile ground for the emergence of all kinds of original associations and insights.

Long back, I thought I would write a book on the subject, I even declared the title/name of the book, which was " don't exist ". ... I was naive, I could never carry on writing, I was never a good writer anyways, moreover I think writing a book is never a one person task, it involves a group of like minded people. (no body would ready a 12-15 page book anyways πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚)
Nonetheless, the idea behind writing was; to excel in anything you need to be . the book was suppose to talk about action, "the " or being in the " ". There are times when people become utterly absorbed in what they are doing, paying undivided attention to the task. Attention becomes so focused that people loose track of time and space. It might have happened to many of you, when at times you got so involved in your work that, people and time-line disappeared into background, at such times you don't feel thirsty or hungry, you are not bothered whether the AC is on or not , or if it is too hot or too cold. It feels as though you almost don't exist.

This state comes with stillness of . when you can maintain your attention between laxity and excitation. Mindfulness and self awareness is the key. The untrained mind oscillates between agitation and dullness, between restlessness and boredom. Thus the cultivation of attentional stability is imperative to in life.
