From where it all begun

The best thing which makes human species above all others is the POWER to IMAGINE…using our BRAIN

Imagining and multitude of thoughts makes us CONFUSED as well.

We all are intellectual beings who want to take better decisions to seek a more blissful moment in future. The neurons in our brains go for a supernova when the stakes are high, and most of the times we are left in a more confused state rather than being decisive. If sometimes this situation prevails for a longer duration, we tend to procrastinate the decision making as well.

Our intellect KNOWs: We are mere manifestation of our past decisions.

Unfortunately, we, the Intellectual beings, do not BELIEVE the statement above. (Yes, knowing and believing are two very distant points in our value system.)

The bridge between knowing and believing is AWARENESS.

The most profound awareness of today’s time is in 18 chapters of Bhagwad Gita. Krishna dispelled Arjun’s confused state of mind in the middle of war-field. Arjun was one of the highly intellectual beings with deep understanding of Vedas, military warfare, diplomacy and compassion. On the day of WAR, Arjun was confused to an extent that he refused to lift the bow.

All his courage and wisdom went into a confused state. He was indeed a CONFUSED INTELLECTUAL in real sense. Many of us already know how Krishna challenged Arjun’s perspective and made him REALISE about misconceptions and finally made him AWARE about the PURPOSE DRIVEN CHOICES. Suddenly the clouds of uncertainty and confusion vanished and brought a clear vision to Arjun that made him coherent with his intellect and actions.

We all are the protagonists of our lives, and we are at times intellectually confused. How can we come out of this state of confusion? Is there a pattern to individual’s confusions? Can confusion be the KEY TO AWARENESS?

I was the youngest amongst my siblings/ family and predominantly all my life events, big or small, my decisions were taken or influenced by my elders . I never took an independent, free from confusion decision until my college days. When the time came for me to take my independent decisions, I was confused. I had acquired degrees = intellect but I was still confused.

After spending more than a decade in professional world, I was still in a state of tussle inside my brain. I did not know my own Belief system.

My awareness about myself was negligible until one day I realized that “har nar mein Narayan hai” = “Awareness is within”. It was not the answers I was searching for, it was the right questions which crack-opened my confusion shell. With the right questions, I was able to understand the pattern in my life and why I decided something over something else. Some powerful questions punched me directly on my face knocking me down to think more deeply.

Trust me, before the confusion could disappear, it became thicker for a while, and then there was Awareness.

With awareness, there is no burden from past, no anxiety of future…only present. This feeling is very powerful and transcends me to state of blissfulness. I knew all this before as well, but now I believe this because I AM AWARE.

I am on an exploration journey to enhance my awareness. Neither any burden from past, nor any anxiety of future, I am moving one step at a time. During the journey I would try to touch lives to alleviate them from Confused state. With my life lessons and some formal framework, here I embark on a journey called “CONFUSED INTELLECTUAL”.

Come join me and bring coherent awareness in life. Because…..

Journey of Confused Intellectual is all about exploring answers within own self

Because as Sadhguru Says

It's not about being Superhuman, but realizing, being Human is Super!!
