Tomorrow, on 3rd June 2015, Indian Thoughts completes 11 years of relentless and silent service. Today, it has come to be one among the most subscribed online moral education services in the world. That is how the world accepted Indian Thoughts. The credit goes to all our contributors, technical support team, committed promoters and above all, the many thousands of readers from around the world.
Why is Indian Thoughts relevant in so confused and so tumultuous a world of fabricated Smile Apps? I remember the story of a lady who was asked to write the names of 25 most important persons in her life. Next she as asked to delete 5 out of 25, again 5 out of the remaining 20, all depending on importance. At last there remained just five: her parents, her husband, her child and her servant. When asked to remove two more from the list, she reluctantly cut her parents. When asked to remove one more, she cut off the servant. The next one she cut off was her only child. Her stand was that it could only be her husband who would stand by her in pain and pleasure all the 24 hours. This is the situation in our physical life. We need some one to love us rather than someone to be loved.
In our emotional/subtle levels of existence, if we are asked to cut off personal attributes/contributing elements one by one, the last thing to remain could be our thoughts. It is from a thought that word was begotten and it is word that became flesh. On the core, each one of us is just a sponsoring thought that culminated into flesh and blood. In a world where we think luxury is everything, our spirits inside are choked or starved. No one easily accepts the fact that we are enslaved to every comfort that we have added into our life. Without electricity, without phone, without car… if we can’t live, this means that they are our masters. On the other side, if we let loose our thoughts so that it merges and harmonizes with the collective consciousness of the universe, we become one with everything and thus master everything. It is like a drop of water in the sea; when it lives part of the ocean, it is the ocean.
To bring humanity back to an awareness of spiritual solidarity and thus to a realm of complete freedom, Indian Thoughts helps. India is perhaps the only continuing culture of its’ kind. Even in almost all sematic religions, what we see is Indian philosophy revisited. Our purpose is not upholding the sentiments of a particular country but sharing the vision of a chain of Great sages and saints who blessed humanity with their wonderful thoughts and presence. Indian knowers were not promoters of sectarian spirituality or religions, Temples or Churches, rituals or practices, rites or tithes, idols or monuments but promoters of a realm of freedom from where we emerged and to where we are bound to return. They knew that evolution is natural and a living being with double consciousness need to evolve in a revolutionary mode. Revolution requires a process; if it is an inward journey, the process required is meditation.
Indian Thoughts don’t teach anybody anything; it just helps everyone to be what they are, which is the first step towards an evolution, consciously controlled. On this auspicious anniversary day, Team Indian Thoughts solemnly thank everybody in this fraternity for being together with infinite patience at hand. In darkness light makes a difference.
