Talk Show Podcast Episode Twelve, Slowing Down the Life

 

Dwelling in the modern societies, particularly in metropolises, is correlated with a hectic and fast pace that prevents most of the people from taking delight in their present moment. We are led to believe that we ought to accomplish every task as fast as we can; it is as if the whole world is going somewhere pretty quickly yet the majorities do not know where they are going.

Those who know me would tell you that I am a fan of Buddhism as well as Taoism, the ancient Chinese philosophies that consider life on its own purposeless and devoid of meaning. Buddha monks believe that life comes from NOWHERE and goes to NOWHERE while in between there is NOW-HERE.

Thus, this philosophy of life which is used in mediation focuses the life’s attention on merely the present moment rather than the past or the future, and attempts to seek none other than peace of mind by not getting involved with the things that are of no real importance.

I sincerely hope that we would not end-up becoming like one of the grown-ups in the historic book The Little Prince written by Antoine de Saint−Exupery. I yearn that you, the listener, try to slow down if just every now and then, sit for a slow conversation, and try to smell the flowers on the way.

Talk Show Podcast Episode Nine

This special edition of Talk Show podcast features an excerpt from the book "the greatest secret" ,the self-help book concerning the meaning of life and the single most efficient way to tackle all challenges and come out a winner despite all the hardships.

      Most often humans forget the extreme power of their mind,and chose to play the role of a prisoner of fate in the movie that we call life. Alas, many of us put aside our dreams and desires just to be more realistic not knowing that humans are creatures as well as creators.
 

      However, I personally beg to differ; for if we discover our true potential and use a combination of faith,fact, and logic then we shall make our lives the way we so wish .If we realize the life changing truth of the fact that we are living in a world of opportunities and possibilities rather than a predetermined one, we could make a difference in not only our own life but also others'.
 

• What is reality?
• Does everybody share the same reality?
• Who does determine your destiny ?
• What is your strongest weapon against all of your problems?
• What should you do in the hardest situations, and against the toughest odds ?
• What is the true meaning of spirituality, and whether or not the modern science contradict with it ?
• What does Quantum physics mean by living in the world of possibilities? 

All of those questions and more are answered in this program.
