Thulasi



Thulasi - holy basil is known as Ocimum Tenuiflorum scientifically. It is used for religious worship purpose, traditional medicines, essential oils, herbal tea and a type of Ayurveda.
It is believed that Thulasi has healing properties. Since the olden days, people use Thulasi to cure fever, beat diabetes, protect the heart, stress reliever, helps to quit smoking, healthy and glowing skin and hair, helps respiratory conditions, and cures headache.
As for me, Thulasi reminds me to stay healthy. I use Thulasi leaves in drinking water and for me it taste better to consume rather than plain water.
Thank you, Universe!

“The natural world is the larger sacred community to which we belong. To be alienated from this community is to become destitute in all that makes us human. To damage this community is to diminish our own existence.” — Thomas Berry.  Perhaps Thomas Berry really connected with Mother Nature in depth and had tried to educate his fellow human beings through his writings but somehow or rather we did not hear, left alone listen to his words of wisdom. Then again, he was not the only one screaming to the world. Instead there were many others who were warning us. Many individuals who walked from different walks of life came at different times to educate us. Example of some famous names include Kahlil Gibran, Thich Nhat Hanh, John Keats, Wangari Maathai, Chandi Prasad Bhatt, Vandana Shiva, Naseeruddin Shah, Jane Goodall, Leonardo Dicaprio, Greta Thunberg, Licypriya Kangujam and the list can go on.  At times, we do not give Mother Nature much of choice, do we? Well, as we always say a ...

Forgiveness is a Journey

    Bryant H. McGill once said,  "There is no love without forgiveness and there is no forgiveness without love."  Forgiveness is a Journey. It does not happen over night but again we only Forgive when we Let Go the past. Of course, when the realization arise from within, one will make a conscious decision to walk on that pathway. Forgiving someone means that we accept another person as who they are and move forward with a greater depth of understanding that nobody is perfect in this world.  In fact, it is not an easy effort but neither is it impossible. Generally, human beings resist to forgive only because they are afraid of being hurt again. Hence, they refrain themselves from reaching out to others with love. When one carries these pain, vengence, anger, frustrations etc. within them for a long period of time, they are only hurting themselves further. Eventually these emotions turn into negative vibrations and they deteriorate in life. At times, the vibratio...

Sometimes I find it amazing how we human's react in life. We never seem to be satisfied with anything. It is our right to voice out on certain matters, no doubt on that. But again, why do we complain so much? Why is that we can never see the good side of life? When some event or matters take off well and succeed, very few actually say good things. But when something negative happens in a small or big way, it is blown up with so much of emotion. This is a worldwide scenario and is happening everywhere. Why do we always react and not respond in life? Time to ponder. I am one person who speaks from my heart. I do not believe in Violence, Condemning One another, Gossiping, Being Harsh or Putting down others. I will raise my thoughts if there is Injustice nevertheless I think it is not necessary to always react in life. Past one year, I have been observing myself and correcting my actions and thoughts. I have learned the truth of life. Instead of  REACTING  it is always best...
