Breaking the circle

As we gain more experience it becomes evident, that mistakes happen. You, your parents, their parents have all taken some steps that have influenced the way you are. That is social and physical evolution. I mean if the apes didn't discover using thumbs, we wouldn't have been at this stage in human evolution. Same way, somethings your grandparents did to your parents made you who you are. Some things are hardwired in your DNA literally. Its not a blame game. Its just a fact. in Hinduism we have something called Pitrudosha. It means curse of some dead relative. Astrology says that, some have it strong, some have it weak. My logic says that everyone has some effects of curse of the dead relatives, but they are able to identify it better and break the Circle better. So if it is boiling down to breaking the circle, it just means Find a problem and fix the problem. And try to not let it pass down. It's also to know that no matter what, you are going to pass something down. But somethings you can definitely do to identify and break the goddamn circle. How? Well I am still figuring it out. "In your drive to escape Toxicity make it clear to yourself that you aren't doing the same thing to someone else...break the circle". My best Idea here is, identify what toxic behaviours are you facing from the society, well that should be identifiable isn't it? Of course we need to ask that to ourselves.

What Jordan Peterson brilliantly explains in his lectures is start with cleaning your room. That is a brilliant place to start breaking the circle. The below video is full of gems of ideas. simply brilliant.
The link below is not only serving the purpose of me sharing with any reader. But also a way to summarize for myself and add it as a bookmark whenever I want to access it again. As I told you, my blog is Not a Self Help blog, its a collection of thoughts.

Self image - a world without mirrors

Hello hello! After a long long time again I am here to pen my thoughts. Not as a psychologist or any kind of an expert… but a normal thinker who wants clarity of thought. This definitely isn‘t a self help blog either! So hier goes… I am sitting in a tram, going to work and suddenly I see my reflection in the glass. I start to imagine hey do any other creatures need to see their reflection? Abhishek Upmanyu‘s joke comes to my mind, where he says… a cat looks at other cat‘s hairstyle and „agar iski sahi hai to meri bhi sahi hai“. Mirrors were invented by us and no other creature really uses it. So society, world naturally works on social image… where everyone of us or atleast in our immediate circle have the same values of hierarchy and we get reactions to how we behave, look, wear, how much money we have. Etc. And a favourable reaction that makes us feel comfortable is the so called „validation“. Now what we are really struggling is having conflicting opinions about ourselves based on w...

1 cut vs 1000 cuts

  Death by 1 big cut Vs Death by 1000 tiny cuts I just want to talk about trauma today. I am not a psychologist and this is not a self help blog! So I try to pen my feelings, sometimes very abstract in the blogs.  When someone kills with a 1000 cuts, its NOT the 1st or 2nd or the last cut that kills… its in fact the Action of frequent cutting that kills.  Thats where we go wrong…we compare the cut size and keep wondering why its lethal… instead of looking at the action.  The worse part is, that tiny cuts present a hope that they will heal some day. But can that happen automatically?? Can they ever heal if the next cut comes before the previous cut heals?  Everyone and every trauma has a different healing speed based on where we are in life and what the nature of trauma is. If you keep burning your hand at the same spot with the same intensity every single day, is the burn every gonna heal??  Why is mental hurt any different then from a physical hurt?? ...

My view on God

Yes I know God is a sensitive Topic and a very personal topic for everyone. And rightly so!! Everyone has the right to have their own image of God. Because it lies within the scope of freedom of thought and belief, which is & should be a fundamental right. So with this said, my thoughts about God are that, God is a term used to define/describe anything and everything that we do not have the capacity to understand. Humans have always been explorers and tried to expand their knowledge base. But it still has its boundaries. Anything that lies beyond those boundaries, is for me "God". My Future, the society, the creation of mankind, where we go after death, also my own Body, unknown ways to me how my body functions! That can all be termed as God. Basically the unknown is God. The problem is that God is a very mystical term and we put god above all. But no, things that must be "worshipped" i.e. put at highest order, given top priority, don't depend on if its know...
