Kindness- Nature’s unique hue

 

Kindness- Nature’s unique hue 

Life resembles a captivating canvas where our memories, experiences, and challenges blend to form numerous masterpieces, each infused with a unique hue of intention. Amidst these creations, some may not align with our initial expectations. It's in these instances that we require the sprinkle of kindness to enrich the composition. Regardless of the outcome, if our intentions were grounded in genuine love, they truly merit this hue.

Pause for a moment and reminisce about an experience where someone extended kindness to you. How did you feel in that moment? Perhaps your heart brimmed with a spectrum of colors—joy, gratitude, love, togetherness, and more. While our hearts fill with a rainbow of emotions, if we were to revisit the person who showed us kindness, they might not even recall the gesture. It's this uniqueness of kindness that renders it the most precious gift of all.

Kindness is nature's gift, allowing us to embrace every thread that connects us to the core of creation. Its most beautiful attribute lies in its ability to flow in the purest form of unity. Hence, not only we as humans, with our cognitive abilities, but everything in nature—plants, animals, birds—can connect through acts of kindness. When one acts with kindness, there are no strings of expectation attached; it bypasses the flow of thought and reflection—it's simply done!

It emanates from the heart, and nothing more. True kindness requires no contemplation. It's pure love radiating from our core, where there is no division, no distinction between anything in nature.

The only way to gauge it is through our feelings. Reflect on how it FEELS when you're kind to others, and also how it FEELS when someone is kind to you. In both instances, there's a profound sense of connection and acceptance. There's no deliberation or assessment—it's the genuine feeling of love behind the action that moves the receiver's heart, and it's the pure feeling of love that prompts the giver toward that action.

Another aspect worth pondering is the satisfaction of needs. These feelings can only be experienced when the unspoken needs of the receiver are fulfilled by the giver. Remarkably, the giver can discern the receiver's needs without them being articulated because when we connect to the source that unifies everything in nature through the heart, somehow we understand. However, it's only when we complete the entire process—from feeling to action—with a selfless intention that these unique hues are added to the canvas of life. Let's not forget, ultimately, there's a vast canvas of the creator, where we as individuals, along with those around us and nature itself, continually craft numerous masterpieces

Emotional Quotient- Foundational skill in education

    EQ- Foundational skill in education   Year is 1995 it is 5pm and all in my family were super anxious as my eldest sister’s 11 th grade result was about to be announced. Moment result was out my parents could not stop bragging about their daughter’s final score, she was State second rank holder and her score was…. 74%. Fast forward thirty years and score for a topper is 99.99%. Buzz word for last three decades was STEM. The reason behind this shift was the observation that education, being imparted at that time, was limited to data acquisition. Students were not guided to learn why and how of concepts, leave aside creating something new from knowledge they acquired. There is no doubt that introduction of STEM learning empowered children to explore, create and experiment new ideas. But question to be asked is ‘Is STEM ultimate shift in education?’ To answer this question first thing, we need to clarify is, ‘What is education?’ For me education is the bridge that enables

Power of Knowledge and Mirror neurons

  The theory of mirror neurons has been circulating for the past few years, providing a lens to understand how a child's neural networks take shape, profoundly influenced by their environment, especially their parents. For those encountering the concept of mirror neurons for the first time, they are brain cells that mimic behaviors and feelings observed in others. Consider actions you unconsciously adopted as you grew older, mirroring your parents—perhaps your walk or the way you hold a spoon. A lingering question arises: if we've mirrored behaviors or habits from our parents, how do we break free from them? Pondering this, considering the theory of mirror neurons, implies a continuous cycle of behaving like our parents, who behaved like their parents, and so on. In this scenario, are we truly living unique lives or merely replaying the same old song? My revelation on this matter occurred a couple of days ago. Since being diagnosed with hypothyroidism, I've explored various

The Power of Choice: Shaping Our World in Just Ten Minutes

It was 6:00 am in the morning, and I woke up to a dusky sky as Bangalore had been experiencing rain almost every single day for the past two months. I woke up with a fresh, happy mind, ready to start the day with full energy. My next instinct was to grab my phone, which was charging next to my bed, and I took it with me downstairs. Even though I could charge my phone anywhere else in the house, I chose this spot, using the excuse that it works as my alarm clock. As I removed it from charging and started walking towards the kitchen, the first application I opened was BBC News, then CNN, and finally, I checked the news flash on Google. Navigating through the headlines, by the time I reached the kitchen, I had shifted from a happy, joyful, and relaxed state to worrying about hurricanes in the US, volcanoes erupting in another part of the world, and the possibility of a world war. My mind was now filled with concerns about what is happening around us and what the future holds for our chil
