Throw Away Your Thoughts and Change Your Life: A Spiritual Journey

By Avadhesh Agrawal

Would you like to change your thinking?Would you like to forget your past? Would you like your horrible night dream to become very nice dreams? Would you like your body pains and suffering to go away? Would you like luck come your way? Would you like positive things to happen in mysterious ways in your life more often than not? Then this book is for you. There are two methods given in this book and they will help you to achieve these goals (1) the first method is to control your physical and thinking karma and (2) the second method is a copyright (by me) and it will guide you to transform your thoughts from physical-thoughts to non-physical-thoughts (divine/higher-power/God). I did this in 6-9 months. You do it once and then maintain it.

When you transform your thoughts then you throw away your thoughts such that all your thoughts, happy, sad and negative thoughts are thrown away. This way all your thinking goes away. Your mind does not go blank but you replace your mind with non-physical thoughts. Once you have accomplished this then you have new thinking without your baggage. You will forget your past.

At this level, your karma will improve and go positive, and as this happens, your horrible night dreams will become positive. At time moves forward, your body pains will slowly go away. If you get hurt in sports then you will heal faster.

This is a very powerful method. As time passes, you may be able to establish communication with divine/higher-power/God and you may begin to receive bells and whistles at some point. If this happens then you will be an extremely happy person.

As parents and teachers become spiritual, they will change the environments at home and at school for their children and students to excel.

Clinical trials for this method are proposed to assess their healing ability.

People are seeking to listen to the voice of God.

Business executives, sales people and people in other professions can become motivated and optimize their conscious, subconscious and super-conscious minds to achieve anything they want.

This method will increase good karma and reduce bad karma in life.

Introduction

Many people are looking to reinvent themselves. Many people are looking to change their thinking. Many people want to forget their past. Many people want their body pains to go away. This book will help them to accomplish those goals.

The Story Behind the Book

I have never written a book before now. I did not write essays as I was growing up. I do not have a background for writing a book. One day, around April 17, 2010, I started to have dreams that went on for three or four weeks. I learned fuzzily from those dreams to (1) copyright a new mind-control/transformation of thoughts method in USA and (2) write a book using this new transformation of thoughts method.

I began to write a book and each time I tried, it did not seem right, so I deleted it from my computer. However, my dreams continually came, and the fourth time I kept on going. It took four to six weeks before I found a way to write this book, and I finished it in three months. My dreams kept on coming, kept on guiding me. Without the Divine/Higher Power/God’s help, I could have not written this book.

People have accidents, injuries and illnesses because their karma brings these things to them. How can we improve our karma? Two methods are given in this book: (1) an improvement of physical and thinking karma and (2) my copyrighted method of mind-control/transformation of thoughts from physical thoughts to non-physical thoughts.

When a normal person prays, their dense physical thoughts stop those prayers from reaching Divine/God; even for those who pray a lot, it makes no difference. If we go through mind-control or transformation of thoughts by removing physical thoughts from our minds, we clear the channel for our prayers to reach Divine/God. This is why I am writing this book: to be obedient to what God wants me to do.

Once our prayers begin to reach Divine/God, things are bound to happen. God will respond to you. God may provide you with bells and whistles. It has happened to me.

The Unique Elements of This Book

The copyrighted method in this book is unique. I developed it and you will not find it anywhere else. If you find anyone using this method, please let me know and I will remind this person about copyright obligations. If this person does not care to listen, then appropriate action can be taken. If you follow this method, it will clear your mind of physical thoughts and replace it with non-physical thoughts.

Let me show you the trend of what happens when you follow this method:

From the above small table, you can see that most of our thinking karma consists of ego and negative thoughts, and very little becomes good karma. When we change our mind to non-physical thoughts, more of our prayers pass through to God. Since we have to live our physical life also, limited physical thinking brings bad karma and hence 20 percent. Try this method for yourself and find out how these numbers stack up for you.

Recently, when President Obama spoke in Arizona he said that we want our future to be just as Christina Greene (who earlier died by gunfire) dreamed. He wanted to build America’s future just as children of America dream. This book supports this vision and will help in this direction.

ATTITUDE

Your attitude, not your aptitude,

Will determine your altitude.

Zig Ziglar

Over the years, I have seen that attitude is the most important or attitude is everything in schools, offices and factories. It sounds close to the truth. Students who have problems with attitude generally have problems with courses, teachers and fellow students. In offices, people who have attitude problems, develop bad relationships with their bosses and the people around them. In factories, the workers also have attitude problems which results in more machine accidents. Also there tend to be disagreements between fellow workers and bosses. In sports, sometimes, attitude determines the difference between winning and losing.

Attitude is talked about a lot, because it affects many people, but no one has been able to do much about it. Attitude is very difficult to change. Most school authorities agree that unless students have a positive attitude in the school, they will not succeed.

There is also an attitude problem between staff members at schools. Generally parents are happy when their children report that their teachers have a positive attitude and when teachers talk positively about the students to their parents.

What Is Attitude?

Attitude is the way someone views people, places or events. For example, someone may have a negative attitude towards a restaurant. Then each time that person goes to that restaurant for an office party, a luncheon or dinner, that person has an attitude issue.

Attitude is affected by our eyes, ears and mouth. Our eyes see things, and a mental picture is created which makes our attitude positive or negative. Hearing does the similar thing: we hear conversations and other sounds, and we create opinions about what we hear. These opinions determine whether our attitudes are positive or negative. We say things and when people reply, our attitudes can be negative or positive. All these things change our attitudes every second of the day.

Attitude is the mirror (or reflection) of what is inside a person. Attitude flows everywhere and affects every aspect of our lives, be it our studies, office relationships, sports; in fact, attitude affects all our interactions with other people. If we need to study for exams, our attitude determines whether we feel like studying or not. If it is sports, we can lose or win. If it is an office situation, then co-workers may feel that we are strange because of our attitude as well as all the people we interact with.

Attitude is made up of:

1. What you think

2. What you do

3. How you feel

Where Do Attitudes Come From?

Attitudes are generally learned from parents, teachers and other people who influence our lives. Attitudes are formed from our religious beliefs.

Some attitudes result from trial and error. For instance, if a behavior is supported and appreciated by the community, over time it will be adopted. If it is rejected or ridiculed by the community, it will not be adopted. Attitudes can be changed but only with some effort.

Why We Are Concerned About Attitudes?

Schools, offices, sports and factory workers fall into this category. For schools, the attitudes of students, teachers and staff make up the proper functioning of the school. If a student has a bad attitude then they can be ridiculed by other students, disrupting the class and affecting the learning of all students.

Factory workers with a bad attitude will have friction with fellow workers. They may also have more accidents, take more time off and contribute to production losses.

In offices, workers with a bad attitude can have problems with bosses as well as co-workers. If they are working with machines, then they can have more accidents.

In sports, attitude is essential. Without a positive attitude, it can be difficult to succeed in sports and win games.

If you don’t like something, change it.

If you can’t change it, change your attitude.

Family Attitudes

When children are small, one of the first words they learn to say is no, and they say no to everything. As they grow up, they do not want to clean their rooms or any other mess they create. If you ask them to pick up their toys from the living room, they will ask why should I do it? If you tell them guests are coming, they will say so what?

Sometimes children change their attitude extremely fast. For instance, one morning my granddaughter and her mother fought a battle about taking bath. It seems that my granddaughter had just won one round with her mother when she came to me and said, Grandpa, let’s play.

I told her No, beta (child)! I can’t play with you. You have not taken your bath yet. You take a bath, and I will play with you. Fine?

She then said, OK, I will ask my mom to give me a bath quickly and then we can play.

I said, Sure, beta!

She ran to her mother and said, Give me bath right now.

Her mother said, OK, but what happened? A few minutes ago you were not taking a bath.

She said, Grandpa says that he won’t play with me unless I take a bath. So, give me bath right away.

She changed her attitude so fast. Older kids will also change their attitude if they have enough incentive.

As children grow up, they want to have their say. During pre-teen years, they assert themselves by saying, Mom, you always say that or You are not listening to me or My friends can do this. Why can’t I? Who knows what their friends can or cannot do; they will quote their friends most of the time.

Pre-teens and teens listen to hardcore music, see vulgar posters and talk a similar language. They bring all these ideas into the home and to school. Most parents are at a loss about what to do. Generally, the school is too geared for kids to do well in studies and sports.

I feel that we should change our culture. Hardcore music should become softer, and vulgar posters should become softer or less vulgar. The same idea is true for all those venues where kids learn such lessons. At the same time, at home, new ideas should be used to soften teen behavior. Parents should behave in a way to encourage kids to learn and imitate their behavior so that it will be accepted and imitated everywhere.

We should turn negative attitudes into positive attitudes within a family environment. One of the ways it can be done is with the involvement of grandparents. Children tend to open up more to grandparents than to their parents. My granddaughter thinks I am her friend. In this kind of relationship, she is willing to confide in me. I teach her during the playtime. In this way the lessons are taught gently.

Children are eager to learn. They learn from any source. It is up to us as parents and teachers to determine what kids learn and from where. We should consider changing this environment for our kids. They all seem to learn by copying or imitating what is acceptable by their community.

Children learn by imitating behavior from parents, older siblings, teachers, coaches and other persons such as comics, cartoons, movies and posters. We should introduce softer images of all these people. Slowly and surely, we will need to change as a society, if we want our children to get what we want them to learn.

How Can We Change The Attitude Of

Children In A Family Environment?

We have heard from many sources that Indian and Chinese kids are doing better than American kids in school. Here is a three-step suggestion:

• Parents need to focus on their children and not on themselves.

• There should be respect, trust, love and laughter equally in the entire family.

• All the material coming to children should be soft from every angle.

Poem

Everyone knows about attitude

Positive attitude is good

And negative attitude

Is not so good.

We need to change negative

To positive attitude

Because it will help you everywhere

With a good attitude

To change your attitude

You need to change your thinking

You are in control of your thinking

You can change your thinking.

There are billions of thoughts to

Change one by one

Or you can follow methods given in this book

And change all your attitudes all at once.

To change our environment for our children will take time. Rome was not built in one day. We will have to make sacrifices, and we will have to start with our own kids. Why not start today?

Family Attitudes Toward Sports

Sports are a good way to teach children teamwork, sportsmanship and fair play. Competitive sports are there for some wins and some losses. Alternately winning and losing teaches kids valuable lessons about life, which they cannot learn otherwise and which they can use if, God forbid, negative things happen in their lives.

Sports also provide good exercise. Kids should take part in as many sports as possible. Participating in various sports gives kids talking points among fellow students. This way, kids can stay away from kids who are in drugs and other negative activities. My son participated in a number of activities when he was growing up: swimming, karate, tennis and snow-skiing. When kids involved in drugs wanted to talk to my son, they talked to him about drugs, while my son would talk to them about snow skiing, tennis and karate. As you see, two people were talking about different things, and they were thinking different thoughts. There was a mismatch in thinking between the two groups of people. It did not go anywhere.

I have met many young Indian and Chinese people, and they all have been through many sports and have come from a softer family environment. If Indian and Chinese people can do it, why don’t American parents learn from their Asian friends?

School Attitude

When children are small, they can change their attitude like the wind, rather easily. As they grow up, they become more difficult to handle. I feel that while growing up, kids should have a motivating person available for them in later years. This motivating-person can be grandparents or uncles and/or aunts. Bonds, once built in younger years, can be of assistance in the teen years. In my case, initially my mother’s parents were there for me and later on, my mother’s brother was there for me. Now I am doing the similar thing for my granddaughter.

I am not in favor of punishment and various experts devising different methods to handle a kid’s behavior. I feel that parents need to soften their attitudes toward their kids. Since kids learn from their parents, parents want to behave in such a way that if their own kids exhibit a similar behavior to them, they would like that behavior. I feel that punishment drives kids away, as I stayed away from my parents. I have talked to many kids, off and on, and they all told me that they do not like punishment.

There is not one solution that will fit all kids. The kids, their parents and teachers should come up to a solution for each case. I feel that everyone has to contribute to the solution. I do not believe that all of the burden (fault) should fall on
