10 Principles to Live Peacefully

By Deepak Gupta

The real enlightenment of humans is not by avoiding or escaping life, but through it, gracefully.

 

You know, the God is connected with emotions and hope, but humans are connected with mind and intelligence. In any century, most of the intelligent people have been failing to grasp the secret to become peaceful all the time. Predominantly when we need mental stabilization, we fail to find something meaningful in our intelligence. Most humans change in life when they experience pain. We don't essentially change with minds but with emotions. We are the creatures of emotions and that's why we get distressed in our lives even how much intelligent and educated we are. Moreover, our generation is embracing to find solutions in deep but mostly our answers are in the simple aspects of life. When the extraordinary man understands the ordinary man, the distinction starts ending.

 

People aren't hopeless. They think they are hopeless. As a whole, we aren't downhearted; we are unaware of the happiness around ourselves.

Prologue

Mental pain is less dramatic than physical pain, but it is more common and also hard to bear. - C.S. Lewis.

The moment of a bright environment also has the dark places, and we enjoy it as a calm place. The world is the alluring combination of light and dark. We can't hate dark just because the world is vivid. Every man has a life of both day and night and it's of no logic to blame the dark and love the night. If we are facing the day, then we can face the night and even more gracefully. As we are moving in life, we can observe, people typically see alone people as weak and stressed. We have the mindset that good people are consistently with the other people, enjoying, laughing, and learning life but that's not always true. Our wrong mindset is producing an invisible bubble of disturbing the sound good people to stay alone and feel the sight of being peaceful. No one is with me, am I good in life? No one admires me. I'm not worthy to make people happy. I can't please people. My mind works different. I possess a deep heart. We have many questions to doubt our way to live our life peacefully. The world is lit and growing at a fast pace. Everyone is surging toward success to lead a good life, but no one talks about being good inside the soul and how to maintain consistency of being peaceful to remember it forever for our whole life. No one is telling, how to remain peaceful consistently with any conditions. With constraints, anyone can make things constant. Life isn't like that. External factors will never disappear, but we have to learn and understand what disturb us and how we can control it.

As per WHO recent survey, Depression is a most common mental disorder, and more than 300 million people suffer from it, and it includes mostly the young and educated people. Depression can lead to suicide and more than 7 lac people die due to it. Suicide is the fourth leading cause of death in the age group of 15-29 years old. The facts and numbers are revealing the substantial truth of our lives. People earn money to enjoy standard of living but forgot to focus on living their live peacefully. We live our lives peacefully, and some days, people don't even know about it. Success doesn't lead to peace. Peace leads to success. WHO announced India, the most depressed country in the world. In 2014, one in 100k people were depressed in India but in 2018, it has raised to 6.5%. Moreover, depression isn’t confined to India but has reached China, United States, Brazil, Indonesia, Russia, and Pakistan. It's bizarre to witness, many people become successful while some even failed to live their lives. It means something is wrong in our daily routine and way to perceive life. We are doing something for good but is not making our mental health good. It's astonishing to know that more women are affected by depression than men. The facts are absolutely right. We can't deny the facts but if we understand them, we can find problems, causes and finally the solutions that at least help to maintain the gap between the nail and hammer.

YOU:

The Control of your Life

Principle 1

Analyze your Daily Habits

Anyone can be happy in favorable conditions, but only a stable mind & conscious mind can be peaceful in miserable conditions.

When a sad soul looks at the cheery soul, he always has the thought of being happy like him. We wonder what people do to remain peaceful in their lives. How they control their life. Why success looks like luck to unsuccessful people. Everything is concealed yet open to us. The mind is the most controllable and uncontrollable part of the mortal body. It constantly requires proper control even when it's stable. It loses control like a small baby. We should take care of our minds like a crying baby. We can't prevent the crying of the baby but can make it happy while doing it. Monks and Sadhus don't accomplish anything extraordinary but accept the ordinary part of their lives. Accept the arduous part and we can make our life
