[www.keralites.net] LIVE LIKE WATER

 

Live Like Water - Like with Grace, Ease and Determination

Water is a great teacher that shows us how to move through the world with grace, ease, determination, and humility.

The journey of water as it flows upon the earth can be a mirror of our own paths through life. Water begins its residence on earth as it falls from the sky or melts from ice and streams down a mountain into a tributary or stream. In the same way, we come into the world and begin our lives on earth. Like a river that flows within the confines of its banks, we are born with certain defining characteristics that govern our identity. We are born in a specific time and place, within a specific family, and with certain gifts and challenges. Within these parameters, we move through life, encountering many twists, turns, and obstacles along the way just as a river flows.

Water is a great teacher that shows us how to move through the world with grace, ease, determination, and humility. When a river breaks at a waterfall, it gains energy and moves on, as we encounter our own waterfalls, we may fall hard but we always keep moving on. Water can inspire us to not become rigid with fear or cling to what's familiar. Water is brave and does not waste time clinging to its past, but flows onward without looking back. At the same time, when there is a hole to be filled, water does not run away from it in fear of the dark; instead, water humbly and bravely fills the empty space. In the same way, we can face the dark moments of our life rather than run away from them.

Eventually, a river will empty into the sea. Water does not hold back from joining with a larger body, nor does it fear a loss of identity or control. It gracefully and humbly tumbles into the vastness by contributing its energy and merging without resistance. Each time we move beyond our individual egos to become part of something bigger, we can try our best to follow the lead of the river.

[www.keralites.net] SIGNIFICANCE OF OM

 

Significance of OM

OM is the essence of the entire universe; it is the manifestation of Brahman. OM represents whatever has existed, whatever exists and whatever will exist . OM comprises of three distinct Sanskrit sounds which are A-U-M, the sounds together consists of all other sounds and the essence of the three worlds, three major Hindu Deities (Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva)and the three Vedas (Rig, Yajur and Sama Vedas).

According to Vedas, God first created sound and then the entire universe rose from this sound of OM. Chanting of OM produces a vibration that resonated with the universal vibration and thus chanting OM elevates us and establishes a relationship with our true self. OM is the root of the entire universe and chanting of OM reminds us of our bond with the divine.

OM also has major significance in other Dharmic religions such as Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism. Also other Abrahamic religions such as Christianity and Islam also have relevance to OM. These religions do talk about the fact that in the beginning, God was a 'word'. Words such as amen and amin in Christianity and Islam and Ogham from ancient scripts may have been derived from OM.

OM also represents the state of human consciousness. It represents the four states namely the Vaishvanara (awaken state), Taijasa (dreaming sleep), Prajna (dreamless state) and Turiya (pure consciousness) both in sound and in visual representation. These four states of consciousness are part of the makeup of human nature. In Vedic literature OM is referred to as Omkara or the uplifting chant and even as the symbol of God. Chanting of OM gives individuals the ability to move past our physical and mental states of consciousness and connect with the divine.

Chanting of OM, keeping in mind its meaning and significance provides a calming effect and fills one with peace, serenity and tranquility. The chanting of Om and reflection on its meaning helps to bring about a transformation in our perception so that we can start to realize the true meaning of our birth. All of Mantras, worships and meditations consists of OM; in fact OM is a Mantra and prayer in itself. According to Vedas any work that begins with the uttering of OM will surely bear fruits.
