After holidays we feel troubled to come back to our routine and join back in our institution. We still wish to get more holidays and to enjoy more. But just to lead a life of \u2018eat, drink and make merry\u201d is not a useful life. Animals too lead this type of life. We are human beings, so we must show the difference between animals and us.<br \/>\nLet us make our life useful. Let us fix up our goal and make a target to achieve that. We do not see our goals even if they are there in front of us. Better ask yourself-\u201cwhat is the purpose of my life?\u201dLet us move towards perfection. Listen to your inner voice. Don\u2019t live a meaningless life. Live in awareness and try to awaken yourself. If you will do so then people will not misuse you.<br \/>\nYou are no less than Gandhiji or Kalpana Chawla. The only difference is that they lived with awareness and most of us are sleeping all the time, we are not alert and waste our time in day dreaming. Sometimes we should ask this question to ourselves-\u201cwhat is the difference between me and an animal?\u201d<br \/>\nIf you are sleeping all the time then you are wasting your valuable time. Let us now promise to awaken ourselves and try to fulfill our dream or expectations of our parents.<br \/>\nAll the power of universe is within you. You can do anything and everything. Let us now focus at the centre of our eyebrows where we put \u201cTilak\u201d or \u201cTika\u201d. This question should also arise in your mind that \u201cwhy don\u2019t we put Tilak or Bindi on our feet or any other place but only on the forehead?\u2019It is because this is the place of our wisdom Chakra or the third eye which is also known as the Knowledge eye.<br \/>\nDuring any auspicious ceremony or before inauguration of new building or during Puja there is a tradition of putting Tilak at the centre of eyebrows. This is to get awareness and to wake up from sleep. This is to bring our consciousness and awaken our subconscious mind. Now let us close our eyes and with100% involvement try to do meditation by chanting \u201cOm\u201d mantra with right attitude.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"display: block; text-align: justify;\">Thoughts delivered in Morning Assembly on 3rd Nov.2016<br \/>\n<strong>By Prof. Sanjay Biyani.<\/strong><br \/>\nDirector(Acad.) <\/span><\/p>\n<p>To know more about Prof. Sanjay Biyani visit <a href=\"http:\/\/sanjaybiyani.com\/\"><strong>www.sanjaybiyani.com<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<div style=\"display: block; text-align: right;\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cwhy don\u2019t we put Tilak or Bindi on our feet or any other place but only on the forehead?\u2019It is because this is the place of our wisdom Chakra or the third eye which is also known as the Knowledge eye.
