Hello,
The idea of travelling on your own may be a scary prospect. You are probably worried about getting lost or getting bored while abroad. But here's the thing ; solo travellers have a lot of freedom in making decisions. You can decide where to go,how long to stay and plan your own itinerary.
When travelling alone, take care of your valuables. Do not carry very heavy jewellery or expensive electronic gadgets. Your valuables can attract undue attention and make you a likely target for robbers,also while carrying money,avoid keeping a huge stash on you. Divide it up and store in different places. Try using traveller's cheque or credit cards.
If you are travelling by train or car it's best to ensure you reach your destination during the day.
Making your way after sundown can get a bit intimidating. Areas around bus and train station can be deserted. Arriving by after noon will ensure you have adequate time to find your way to the hotel and check-in before dark.
This one is for all the women. To avoid attractive extra attention. It's best to dress a little conservatively. Try and do some research about the place you are about to visit and what the local dressing style is like. While shorts and sleeveless tee is perfectly acceptable in Goa. In certain parts of the North India it may cause stares.
It can be intimidating for first time solo travellers to make their way on their own. Ensure you have read up about the place,the closest tourist centers,modes of transport,etc. So that you are not totally lost. Carry mobile phone if possible and a tourist guide so that you can ask for your whereabouts.
Make copies of your passport , hotels stay confirmation and other travel documents. Carry a copy on you,as well as leave a few behind with your close family and friends. In case of any emergency ,they will know where to contact and if you misplace your documents they can provide a copy.
Karma
Hello,
The person whose mind is always free from attachment,who has subbed the mind and sense,and who is free from desires,attains the supreme perfection of freedom from karma through renunciation...
If a householder moulds himself according to the circumstances just like nature moulds herself according to season and performs his karma then only shall he acquire happiness. One who does this successfully gains in all walks of life.
The word karma is derived from the sanskrit kri,'todo' . All action is karma.. Technically, this word also means the effects of actions. In connection with metaphysics it sometimes means the effects of which our past actions were the causes.
Karma moves in two directions. If we act virtuously,the seed we plant will result in happiness. If we act non virtuously,the result is suffering.

Taste
Hello,
If you want to experience something of life beyond the physical existence,you need to go beyond the five sense.Right now, you can only talk about God; you cannot experience the fruit beyond the peel and access that which is the source of creation, there is a possibility for you to live every moment of your life in the company of the Divine- an intelligence and competence that will make your life magical and blissful.
If you do not utilise this possibility,why exist here as a human being?If we have just come here to eat, sleep,reproduce and die one day,we don't need this kind of intelligence ;we don't need this kind of body.
Once you have come here as a human being,you have come with the capability of knowing and experience life beyond the physical dimension. That is what meditation of the five senses; to know and sphere of that which is physical; to know and experience life at the source,not the surface .
To live,and to live totally...

Healthy
Hello,
Health and good state of body are above all good.
Health is best of all gains and peace of mind is the best of all happiness.
The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, not to worry about the past, not to worry about the future, and not to anticipate troubles,but to live in the present moment is wisely and earnestly.
Start now to think only those thoughts that will bring you health and happiness.
We must turn to nature itself, to the observations of the body in health and in disease to learn the truth.
But for one's health as you say,it is very necessary to work in the garden and see the flowers growing.

Today, there is hatred in society there is greed,fear and because of this depression and stress has set on. Stress is one of the biggest cause of urban health problems, it is appalling to hear that in the coming decades depression will be the number one disease in the world.

Silence
Hello,
What do you think about god? Where will you find God or peace of mind?
I seek god within myself, I believe that by living honestly we can be in touch with god. I don't need to find god outside, I try to live by simple principles and with honesty, I find god is present everywhere,we just need to be connected.
I connected to him by spending time with myself,,by being calm and observing my deeds and actions. I think silence is a powerful tool to connect with god. It also gives you immense energy.
I believe that kismat is defined by our karma and it's always revolving. Your karma reflects on your kismat, so one should always do good deeds, Never stop from helping anyone . The universe will gift you something for your goodness.
God is everywhere , just be honest and and be happy,

Reuse water left over from cooked vegetables or steamed food as source of nutritious soup.
Use a microwave of defrost frozen food instead of thawing it under the running tap .
Water your plants using the water used for rinsing fruits and vegetables.

Fools day
Hello,
Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child, but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.
Pain and foolishness lead to great bliss and complete knowledge, for eternal wisdom created nothing under the sun is vain.
You may fool all the people some of the time,you can even fool some of the people all of the time,but you cannot fool all of the people all the time.
He dares to be a fool,and that is the first step in the direction of wisdom.
People do not wish to appear foolish, to avoid the appearance of foolishness , they are willing to remain actually fools.
You grow up the day you have your first real laugh - at yourself.
Happy fool day.
