Sarve Bhavantu Sukhinah

Spread Health, Spread Happiness


May the supreme powers of the universe be kind and bless all with health, happiness and longevity. ‘Purna Swasthya’ and ‘Purnaayu’ are the most cherishable blessings for anyone born. A person with a healthy body and a healthy mind can conquer challenges of life with much ease and make life ‘Sampoorna’. In the Dhammapada, Lord Buddha states health as the greatest acquisition; health as the supreme possession.

We hear so much about patience, serenity, spirituality, karma and curbing our ever-soaring desires. Yet in our day-to-day lives we cheer materialism, acquisition and ostentations letting our lives malaised. Embracing competition, we invite chaos and commotion. Running after the banal, trivial and mortal goals we are losing focus from the fulcrum of our lives. Life is beautiful with so many facets, but being victims to the fast-paced modernization, securing our present and future, we are probably living only one facet- running after our aspirations. Unfortunately, our aspirations are mis-directional and never-ending. Our appearance to the world is overshadowing our existence in the world. Status, position, power are considered the measures of success. ‘You have it and you must flash it’ has become the way of life. These sow the seeds of envy, pride, rage, frustration leading to stress, anxiety, fear and depression. Even the most placid people get pulled into this vicious circle for survival, with the fear of being left as laggards.

Preserve the Equlibrium

Lord Krishna in Bhagvad Gita has said, “If one affects the natural balance and harmony present in his body and sleeps, eats, works, excessively, he will fail to preserve the equilibrium of the metabolic functions. Due to which one will get sick. Cure to re-establish the balances is achieved by living life like a yogi. “He who is temperate in his habits of eating, sleeping, working and recreation can mitigate all material pains by practicing the yoga."

Swastha Shareer’ and a ‘Swastha Man’ should be the prime goals for any person to obtain ‘Sarv-Sukh’ of a life.
