| Stop Running The Race … Enjoy The Present Moment Every soul seeks happiness. While happiness itself is searched for its own sake, many other goals such as health, beauty, money, or power are valued, because we expect that this is what will make us happy. In today’s world there have been unprecedented advancements in the areas of medical science and technology, but when it comes to attaining this blessed and beautiful state of happiness, not much has changed. We often end up feeling that instead of being filled with happiness, instead we have spent our time feeling anxious and pressured to attain something, which could lead us to success and happiness. The sense of happiness, a natural state of being to each soul, has become very difficult to experience in the world today, because it has become dependent on physical attainments and achievements.As children, we were thrilled and happy naturally. We could share our experiences of such joys in response to simple events like hearing a bird chirping or sharing our snacks with a friend. As we became older, pressure set in to achieve extrinsic goals like success in education, business, or even raising a family. This has resulted in losing the awareness that our first basic goal or responsibility is to express our joy of being. If we go against our own nature to be happy, we can never reach anywhere.  Do You have a picture of what you wish to accomplish in life? beneath your ordinary state of awareness…meditation can help you get in touch with it! Often it is different types of success that we hope for. It could be money, health and social relationships. How close we get to attaining that goal becomes our measure for the quality of our life. The problem arises when we become so obsessed with achieving something, that we stop deriving joy from the present moment. Don’t let this happen to you! Happiness truly does lie within; it is intrinsic to the soul. Discover unshakeable happiness in the Silence of the Soul attained through Raja Yoga Meditation.
