Never Give Up Till The End - Try Try Try





Few days back i was travelling by a local train in mumbai, if you have experienced the mumbai local trains then i dont have to explain the experience. but for the people who have no idea let me tell them few things. The mumbai locals are one of the most JAM PACKED - OVER CROWDED LOCALS IN THE WORLD. Nearly 2 to 3 thousand people cramp in 1 local train in peak hours, some sit on the top and risk their lives while many hang on the door with a support of two fingers and stand on as little as a toe to support their pricelesss Life. This goes on everyday come sun rain or any problem. I happen to be one of the lucky travellers who is blessed to travel in the opposite direction in the peak hours or travel during the off peak hours, and i travel in the first class, not that it is any different during the peak hours than the second class compartments. Let me get back to what i experienced, i went to Churchgate from Andheri, takes about 40 mins by fast train, i had to drop my shoes to wankhede stadium and exchange them for another pair, but coudnt get my size of shoes. So i kept the shoes there and dejectedly started my travel back to Andheri, i was carrying a empty New Nike sack with me, in which i had taken the shoes. I bought a Mid Day news paper, kept my Nike Bag on top where everyone keeps their luggage. I told myself not forget the bag when i get down at Andheri, aaaaah I should'nt have said that. I got down at Andheri, Happily sat in an Auto and strted my journey to my House. Half way to my house i realised, SHIT! I Forgot The Bag In The Train. i found myself cursing in my mind hdskj. What a day i was having, neither could i exchange my shoes and also lost my bag , Wow i had wasted half my day just to come back empty handed. Shit! this couldnt be happening to me. i cursed and i cursed. I reached home and sat for few minutes, I was very restless as i couldnt believe what had just happened with me. But then something hit me inside my head, i said to myself why should i give up, let me try and get my bag back. YEAH I had heard and read a lot of stories, how people lose their luggage and het back, i said why not me, at least let me try and ccheck my luck. I remembered i had caught a virar fast local from churchgate at 235pm, the train must be still on its way to virar, and i was sitting in the first class, so the chances are the bag is still there, atleast till it reaches virar. I immediately started calling apna MTNL for western railway helpline, trust them to do the something crazy and they gave central railway helpline and told me confidently they will give the western railway helpline number. This didnt make sense but i didnt have time to argue with the Brilliant MTNL employee. Anyway i called up the central railway no. and to my surprise they indeed gave me the western railway helpline no. of Mumbai Central Station. I told the person at the helpline about my lost bag, gave him the description and the train details along with the compartment and train time. To my surprise the person sitting there immediate got in touch with the Railway Police of Vasai station after checking his timetable. Told me to call after sometime and check. I called after 30 mins, without any expectations, And hallelue Praise the Lord! I heard him saying they have found my bag and i should go and collect it today before 6pm.


Wow! What an achievement, things really do work if you Believe and Dont Give Up Till The End .
Moral of the story -
1) Never Give Up Till the End
2) Nothing is Impossible till you Believe it is Not Possible
3) Always Think Positive


Ataching the photo of the Railway Police Of Vasai Rd Railway Station who acted promptly and got my Bag. Thanks a Lot. Railways have definitely added one more Fan to the club

ARE WE ALL CONNECTED?


Are we all connected? have you noticed that we sometimes pass on the thoughts to the other person without even saying a single word. the feeling behind the thought maybe good or bad. My sister who is a yoga therapist, always tells me how she ends up receiving calls from the people she intensely thinks about, amazing isnt it? and on the other hand i also have a friend who has developed such a dislike for her relative that no matter how good they are with each other they just dont like anything about each other and believe me they have never hurt each other by words, these two individuals are living examples of how people can start hating each other by mere presuppositions in the mind.change the thinking and the world around changes believ me, sometimes we just presuppose things about the people we dont know and develop an image in our mind, whereas once we know them so many times people have apologised for misunderstanding them earlier with their thinking. so many times we base our likeness or dislike for the person even before we have interacted with him/her. so many times we approach a person with a presupposition in the mind and that changed the whole equation of the relationship till we discover the real person he/she is and also till we open up as we are. some times it gets too late and we lose a very important person in our life, just because of our pre supposition in our mind. the presupposition will eventually develop a world full of your own beliefs and which are only true in your mind. do you remember the famous saying "its all in the mind" it is so true. our thoughts the ones which are building our world around us constantly. thats why if you read carefully all the religious texts will always ask you to think positively, think good. guys i am not trying to promote any religion here, but it is important to be aware and appreciate of what is good. why to think positively? well! their is a reason behind it, truly and deeply. if we all look back in our life we have always met people who have somehow always helped us in getting what we wanted to achieve. how and why did we meet these people sometimes is a big question.
are we all connected? yes we are! think about it! the easiest way to understand is the mobile network, it works on a certain frequency. who had imagined few years back that such a technology would come and change the whole world. just like the mobile network our mind has its frequency and it works with the universal mind. every thought that we think eventually becomes a part of this universal mind, and if its a desire then somehow this whole energy around us gets into action to get another person with a similar desire or someone who may help you fulfill your desire, with the help of this universal mind network. we displace this in our life as a mere coincidence and sometimes luck or ignore it completely, because of ignorance or ego. now we always dont get what we ask for, do we? there is a reason for that too. when we wish for something and we dont get it for long time, we also end up doubting our life and start thinking negatively, this negative thinking creates blocks in your way to letting your dreams come true. its a difficult process to only think positively, but once you achieve it , the results are amazing.
meditational practices are very good in erazing the negative thoughts. find a meditation technique that suits you and watch your life change. there are many techniques for meditations, you need to do several of them before you get what suits you. above all this believe and believe and never doubt.

we need to understand the importance of the quality of thoughts that we should possess. the nature of your mind depends on the quality of your thoughts and the quality of your life depends on the quality of your mind. thought are very important, if you are aware of what the holy scriptures are saying or even the scientific world today. all the schools of thought are saying nothing but to think positively to improve your lifestyle. it has been proved by various experiments til today, the link between your mind and your body. sameway today it has been proved scientifically how important it is to think positively and the impact it has not only your life but also on others around you.
i am sure you must have felt an instant hatred or an instant likeness to another person who you have met for the first time in your life. its nothing but the energy that you are transferring out, the energy is built on the quality of thoughts that you have. change the way you think and you find a tremendous change in the way you perceive people around you or even the way you perceive the world.
