The blessing of ability to Think

Sairam friends,

I was happy yesterday and don’t really have any reason for this. I just tried to keep myself happy.

Why I can’t be active always Sai? 

I used to feel really guilty because I feel my eyes will be closing after lunch most of the time. I try to sleep well at night so that It won’t happen but night time is for me to learn something good and get ideas to write in StarSai. I saw a documentary about Biological clock which says that all over the world, there’s less productivity an hour after lunch. Its OK for people working inside an office but think about people who are responsible for others life like Drivers, pilot etc.

I feel surprised how others are working so hard and they are always active and only I am a stupid sleepy head baba. If I have some work to complete fast alone I feel active. I think its psychological and has to do with the way our brain reacts to situation.

When ever I travel in flight, I used to think don’t these Pilots feel sleepy? There are jobs which keeps one busy as they have to attend customers every minute. These people might get tired but won’t go asleep especially because that’s the power of human faces and voices. Our brain gets activated when someone is expecting something from us or speaking to us.

So I try to speak to my friends at work when ever I feel my eyes are closing. Yesterday, we did a imagination about what will happen if all IT companies becomes a Kitchen of marriage function. Suddenly we come into office and see people cutting vegetables, making Laddu ( An Indian sweet) and other food items.

Someone comes and says ” Neenga enna panuvengalo theriyaadhu, End of the Day, I want you to make Laddu”. We go and tell him , ” End of the day, marriage will get over. We are supposed to make it by afternoon.” he he….

And another guy who always search for App, will be searching for App in his mobile to make Mysoorpa and sweets. Some girls will be cutting Onions and wiping tears in their dupatta.

Anyway, I have experimented that if we smile and laugh, we will become active once again and start to work. My Sister came online and we saw her in web cam after many days and parents were so happy to see little Katya. My Sister said this years Nobel prize is given to scientists who are doing research similar to the one she’s has been doing for many years.

Mom asked her why she keeps her face so serious and that I also always keep my face sad and serious. My Sister said, its because she has lots of work to do. Mom asked her to be relaxed and do it cheerfully.

I believe its all in the way we “Think”. If we think we can do something better, we really can. If we think, we can smile even during worst situations, we really can.

A Species who lived before 70,000 years almost similar to Modern Human species

I came from Saibaba temple in my hometown and watched a documentary film which researched if Neanderthal, the species who were actually similar to human species had ability to “Think”. Many scientists propose that the Neanderthal would have lived in our planet for several million years but as soon as the the modern human species emerged, they were completely extinct.

Was it because the Neanderthal lacked the ability to think? They would have simply lived without any thought process but the human species had an advantage of thinking symbolically and reshaping the environment and their own life for leading a comfortable life. When Scientists discovered small stones under rocks in Africa with specific Art work like design, they get a proof that even Neanderthal’s had ability to think but they must have got extinct because of other reasons like diseases etc.

The Modern Human species ability to Think

Everything we see in the world out there is someone’s ‘Thought” . You think that you must do something and then create a world of your own in your brain. Then you work on it and it gets shape. Was this ability to Think a blessing from God to the us alone? It is and we really can’t find any scientific proof that ‘Thinking” ability is has naturally evolved.

May be the ability to apply the thought process would have evolved over years. First expression of thought process would have been creating a “Language” to speak, then “Art” to express, ‘Written” form of the language. All these creative abilities of Human being must have evolved over thousands of years.

One of the prophesy why Neanderthal’s would have been completely extinct could be because the modern Human species were able to apply their ability to “Think” productively. Its not enough if we speak, write and create an Art. Its our thought process which matters and has helped us become one of the greatest kind of life on Planet Earth.

The blessing of ability to Think

One of my habit is to suddenly go deeply into my thoughts thinking or imagining something and my friends used to tease that I don’t live in this world and they have to bring me back at times. Honestly, I agree worrying about life is not good but thinking something creative and useful, really is a good habit.

The holy scriptures says that our mind changes several crore times a minute

One of the reason, we have to work on our purity and ego every minute is because human mind is so vulnerable. Our mind changes crores of times in an minute. That’s how quickly our mind changes. Sometimes, we really want to be good but in the last second, we do bad. Sometimes, we really wanted to help but decide its better not to. We all take wrong decision especially because our mind keeps changing.

This is the reason, Saints always requested their devotees to keep remembering them. When you keep remember Gods you love or Shirdi Sai Baba, you make sure that your bad intentions and thoughts doesn’t prop up. It gets washed away and you only go good for yourself and others.

Think good before you take any decision.

Think if you are doing good for yourself and others

Make sure your thoughts and the resulting action doesn’t harm anyone and only does good.

Human being are blessed with ability to Think as we can decide whats good and bad for our life. We are responsible for shaping our life into a good one and it starts with our purity and honestly in Thinking and being Good.

Keep thinking good and your life will be good.

I am leaving this article halfway as Amma asked me to offer flowers to the Gods and Goddess. Today am asked to take photos with my camera for an event. I really don’t like taking pictures at work now a days as some people might need privacy. I honestly don’t know how to avoid it baba but when am photographing, I start to like it.

Life goes on…I just don’t know what Sai thinks about me. I can tell you a assurance from Saibaba to Tarkad.

Tarkad is an ardent devotee of baba and once Sai send him a message to come to Shirdi. When he finally goes to Shirdi and meets Saibaba, Sai told him “Its good you have come. I have been thinking about you day and night”

The moral of the small incident is..

Shirdi Sai Baba thinks about his ardent devotees day and night for their welfare.

This is the motherly love of Sai and we all must be happy about it.

Sai is Thinking about You….

Sai blessings

Love,
