BRAIN TREE A BOOK OF 365 POSITIVE QUOTES- Available on Amazon

BRAIN TREE A BOOK OF 365 POSITIVE QUOTES “We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world,” said Gautama Buddha. These are pearls of wisdom, verily cast in stone. Humans have set footprints on the moon, made valorous attempts to explore the universe and decipher the mysteries in its exponential womb (forever expanding), but we are yet to fathom the enigma called the human mind. The mind is perpetually cannonaded (an astonishing fifty thousand to sixty thousand per day!) with innumerable thoughts, which are largely antipathetic and Sisyphean in nature. These diminish our aura and take away from our persona. We cling on to the coattails of negativity and the mind is shrouded by tenebrosity, unable to separate grain from the chaff. Vast multitudes capitulate even before taking up the cudgels. What distinguishes some individuals like Helen Keller and Maj DP Singh(of Kargil war fame), Louis Hay (who was physically and mentally exploited at a tender age), Thomas Alva Edison (a venerable scientist who lost his hearing power after a bout of scarlet fever), from mortals who lose hope and are unable to scale the summit? It is the strength of the human mind. How are achievers and successful people different from those who succumb? A robust mind is blessed with efficacious thoughts. This book is a collection of 365 positive quotes to transfigure the mind and make a difference. Certainly life is like a synodic curve; there are upheavals and breathtaking and pleasant moments too. However, a brawny mind is one which is configured to take up challenges to signal a change, offer solutions and not be perennially complaining and end up becoming a part of the problem. 'Aano bhadra krtavo yantu vishwatah' (meaning: Let noble thoughts come to me from all directions). This is a Vedic mantra ( Rig_Veda 1.89. 1) which is the corner stone of the book. A WhatsApp message, an anonymous quote or thoughts of eminent scholars , politicians , achievers , scientists , entrepreneurs , artistes , sportspersons , spiritual leaders , strains of important religious texts all play a pivotal role in metamorphosing our lives . The key lies in us keeping our antenna open to idea and not sink our heads like an ostrich in sands of time. The book is divided into six categories to strengthen the mind. These are delineated as: Good Day Religion and God Philosophers and Spiritual Masters Movers and Shakers- Famous Personalities Game Changers Intrinsic Laws of the Universe In this book we begin with the Serenity Prayer. It is a very powerful and potent prayer which ought to be recited everyday unfailingly to make the mind a suzerain and not remain a bondsman to antipathetic thoughts.
