'Who shall achieve victory in the world?'
The answer he provided was:
'Those who have conquered their own mind'
In this post we will learn to conquer our mind by knowing—

3. Sublimation— Build A Positive Thought System:
Focus building on the thought chain of positive emotions. Cultivate in your mind wholesome ideas of inspiration, optimism, cheerfulness.

In Sanskrit, mental practice is called Chintan. It means 'deep reflective thought'.
Strategies to train your Chintan:-
156
— Spirituality is the essence while religion is its external form.
— Visit to a sacred place is religion. To sit down in one place and take our mind to the Divine is spirituality.
— To take a bath in the holy Ganga is religion. To bathe our mind in Divine thoughts is spirituality.
— To adorn the body with sacred tilak marks is religion. To adorn our personality with noble and sublime qualities is spirituality.
— To offer oblations of ghee in the sacrificial fire is religion. To offer our obnoxious ego at the feet of God and become humble is spirituality.
Both should be practiced to purify our mind.

The history of Zen starts with myths and legends. The starting legend for Zen is the flower sermon:
"Toward the end of his life, the Buddha took his disciples to a quiet pond for instruction. But Buddha had no words. He instead he held a flower silently before them.
None but Mahakasyapa understood. He smiled and began to laugh. Buddha handed the lotus to Mahakasyapa and he became Buddha’s successor."
This direct transmission of wisdom (with no words and abstract concepts) serves as the foundation of Zen.

Spirituality is the place within yourselves where your soul can find a sense of peace. It’s a concept completely liberated from any rules, institutions or hierarchy and it’s dedicated to the human soul.
37
Living in a fast-paced world, it can be hard to make time for spiritual practices. Here are some ways to incorporate spirituality into daily life:
3
This type of spirituality is believing in a hierarchical structure of things or in authority.
Often, this type of spirituality is associated with religious beliefs . There are cases when not following the spiritual rules of religion may cause conflicts.
People with authoritarian spirituality can develop a form of fundamentalist religion.
33
Religiosity typically refers not only to a belief in a higher entity or something greater than oneself but also formal involvement in organized religious activities and specific, measurable acts such as prayer, meditation, service attendance, religious readings, and affiliation with a particular religion or place of worship.
For those who find meaning or purpose in life through religion, religiosity is associated higher levels of positive affects.
31
This type of spirituality is focused on the intuitional part of the soul . People who have mystical spirituality believe that there’s a greater unity to every experience in life.
Every experience goes beyond the material or physical world, and everything can be brought into one greater unity. For example, people with this type of spirituality may support the idea that everything happens for a reason. There’s a greater explanation behind everything and that would be what unites all the different experiences.
38
Whether it is about the 'secular' or the 'buffet' Buddhism, individuals admit embracing these practices as they prove more efficient both from an emotional and a financial point of view.se
89
So many of us turn away from religion because we actually crave meaning, we just also happen to equally crave personalization, and it is that personalization that could explain why millennials are turning to astrology over something more structured and authoritarian, like religion.
This is not an abandonment of religion, but rather a spiritual shift. People, inherently, want to believe something, and are just feeling more comfortable expressing what somethings work for them specifically.

The fictional world that holiday movies bring to the viewers provides them solace, courage and reaffirmation to move past the obstacles in their real life.
Though watching Christmas movies during holiday season is a ‘ritual’, the movies themselves do not bend towards christaniity or God, but towards true love, the power of family, the meaning of home and relationships.
20
In most religious traditions time is like a circle: it closes where it opened. In Hinduism, for example, the world spins along an endless cycle: creation, rise, decline, destruction, and rebirth. This conception is very much fatalistic in nature.
Christians, however, see time as linear. It moves away from the Garden of Eden, and toward a day of judgment, justice, and a divine, peace-filled kingdom. With a linear perspective, time moves from the past to the future. Linear time is better because it allows for progress.
24
We live in an age of unprecedented anxiety (uncertainty, information overload, social comparison etc). Historically, religion used to ground people by giving them a set of rules and making them part of a divine plan.
Allan Watts observes the fading of Christianity in the West, but instead of defending a return to orthodoxy, he offers an alternative. An eastern perspective, mainly Taoist, focused on embracing insecurity and living in the present.

Life is a chronicle: of the depths we have fallen into, the peaks we have climbed, and the detours we have taken on our journey. It's not always a straight path. We continue to work on our lives, while trying to remember that our true home is spiritual - the home of love that we never really leave and always resides within us.
Sharing our heartfelt stories with others - in the hopes of bringing more light into a sometimes dark world. 🌟
14
Bridging differences means finding ways to create positive dialogue and understanding across race, religion, political ideology, etc.
195
The Universe can not exist without consciousness. The structure of reality is something an intelligence produces. We can't operate without patterns. But only humans makes patterns. So ... Intelligence is part of reality. Consciousness thus can be seen as the principality of reality.
And if we accept there are other agents in reality we can expand intelligence to the extreme, to the pattern of all patterns. We usually represented that ultimate congregated intelligence as God.

Joseph Henrich argues that people from Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich & Democratic (WEIRD) societies have distinct psychological characteristics compared to the rest of the world. He traces these to unique cultural features and historical developments that shaped WEIRD societies over time.
The premise is that culture matters a lot. It affects us biologically. It can and does alter our brains, hormones, and anatomy, along with our perceptions, motivations, personalities, emotions, and many other aspects of our minds.
37
“Tears are God’s gift to us. Our holy water. They heal us as they flow.”
21
Sometimes religion gets in the way of God.”
24
Pirsing goes to great length to use motorcycle maintenance as an example for being fully immersed into the world. He wrote "Zen&The Art of .... " in the 60s, during the Vietnam war and the hippie revolution. A lot of the protestors saw nature loving pacifism as a reaction to the tech-focused future.
Pirsing does not see a conflict between tech and nature. It's not a subject problem, but a quality problem. Technology is not the enemy. He could became awakened by caring for his bike just as a guru would meditate on the mountain.
26
Metaphysical desire is focused on our identity, our ego, our spirit ... the core of what we are. This itself can be broken down into 3 components:
13
The approach considers spiritual realization not as a fixed endpoint but as an ever-unfolding process. There's always more depth, nuance, and understanding to discover.
28
This is one of the most common types of spirituality. It’s because people experience spiritual peace when they serve others.
There are many ways to achieve this spirituality, but the core of it is helping others without expecting nothing in return. Doing something that will benefit someone without getting something back is a common way for people to get in touch with their spiritual selves. #4. Service Spirituality
33
When Constantine converted to Christianity he had no interest into this theological discussion. Nor did most of the early Christians. However most of the bishops in Alexandria (considered the cultural centre of the empire) were Arian, meaning they believed Jesus was somehow subordonate to the Father. But the head of Alexandian branch did not and Constantine had to intervene.
The council of Nicaea in 325AD was called to settle the issue. Based mostly on politics the Aerian position lost and it was decreed that God and Jesus are of the same substance.
100 years later than the Holy Spirit joined.
11
The ability to read and write not only leads to cultural progress but also changes our biology and psychology. Literate societies have thicker corpus callosa and have difficulty recognizing faces. This is because reading (a skill acquired later in human history) requires using areas of the brain that oral communication does not.
The spread of literacy can be traced back to the rise of Protestantism, which emphasized the importance of individuals engaging with divine words directly. Hence, reading became essential in Western societies, while oral communication ruled the rest of the world.
38
Self-enhancement through spiritual practices can fool us into thinking we are evolving and growing, when in fact all we are growing is our ego. The “I'm enlightened and you're not” syndrome:
We may end up using our spiritual beliefs & practices to avoid genuine contact with our psychological unfinished business.
35
Orthodox Religions like Catholicism focus on belief and the manifestation of that belief. You have to șah the right words, pray and so forth.
Orthopractic Religions like Judaism are much more focus on acting a certain way. How you act is more important than what you say.
Clearly the first are much more popular than the second. Because talking is cheaper.
12
People with strong faith release control of their struggles and worries to a higher power, which helps to relieve anxiety and stress.
Religious groups also offer a strong source of community and friendships, which is critical for health and happiness.
218
Christianity is Judaism with product market fit.
10
Imagine being in a room where you can't control your reactions. You might get angry easily or feel upset without understanding why. This stage is like living on autopilot, where you're not aware of your thoughts and emotions, and you react without thinking.
20
We are not material beings having a spiritual experience. Rather, we are spiritual beings having a material experience in this world.
151
Humanity is sacralized in Self-spirituality, which automatically makes it an obvious choice for the millennials and youngsters already fed up with how the world works.
This also makes them make sustainable choices like recycling and veganism. While the old-school conservatives label these human-centric feelings as lacklustre, many of the liberals celebrate the individual freedom it provides.
78
The End of Work in the coming decades may give way to the rise of 'Deep Play', elaborate virtual reality games mixed with religion, consumerism and other ideologies.
76
More and more people are turning today to Buddhism, in order to find back the quietness that everyday life makes them lose.
Moreover, individuals claim that Buddhism enables them to deal with their suffering and find joy within.
130
Good thinkers are those who can use any or all of these styles depending upon situation at hand.
154
Religion us not really ablut deities. Religion is about interpreting the world through myth, rituals and folklore. As opposed to data, experimentation and rarionalism.
Religion imposes a narrative structure to the world as opposed to the scientific approach. This also explains why the religious impulse is so universal.
13
Religions are divisions, making people separate from others. Most religions follow the concept of belief, that the truth is already there and you simply have to believe in it.
These religions have imposed beliefs, doctrines and sets of ideas that are supposed to be holding the truth, and some even have deities and other entities with divine power that supposedly protect us from the harsh truths of life: uncertainty, impermanence, death and change. These harsh truths are paradoxically essential for understanding life.
230
It means acting wisely in the world by first reaching a high level of self-knowledge.
This is acquired through meditation, self-reflection, and psychotherapy and leads one to become more sensitive to the emotions of others, and even to one’s surrounding environments.
325
The Buddhist sage Lin Chi told a monk, "If you meet the Buddha on the road, kill him." He meant that those who think they've found all the answers in any religion need to start questioning.
Religion keeps the students dependent on the leader. That is an extreme form of attachment. Not Zen.

The last emperor of India’s Mauryan Dynasty, Ashoka became a patron of Buddhism after witnessing the suffering caused by his military conquest of Kalinga. Following this, he renounced violence in favor of “conquest by Dharma.”
12
The beginnings of Zen can be traced to India in the 3rd century when we have a school called Buddha Nature, which claimed that Buddha's emptiness is a gift we all share. That Buddha's nature is a connecting force between all that exists.
The practice found a lot of traction in China through monks like Bodhidharma. The reason is that the interconnectedness the Buddhists were talking about matches the Tao, the connective substance, which is the basis of Taoism (one of the main Chinese schools of thought alongside Confucianism). From China, it moves to Japan, where the Zen name comes from.
21
The Author and Philosopher's fresh take on religion, shaping it as an 'empirical spirituality' was a huge influence in the 1960s and which has since then led to more people (now 27% in the US) being 'Spiritual but not Religious'
165
“Every circumstance, no matter how complex, challenging, and frustrating, contains a positive seed that should be nurtured.”
Practice simply to give thanks for what we have received.

Right Eye: Traditionally linked to happiness or joy. Some cultures consider it a sign of good fortune but in spirituality, it can symbolize an awakening, an insight, or a positive change.
Left Eye: Often associated with pain, sadness, or grief. However, in spiritual terms, it may signify a release of negative emotions, a process of healing, or the beginning of a transformative journey.
Both Eye: When both eyes produce tears, it often represents intense emotional responses. Spiritually, it could signify a profound personal transformation, realization, or a strong connection to one’s emotions.
22
Spirituality is a personal experience that creates a system of personal beliefs when searching for the meaning of life.
Being spiritual can mean different things to different people. For some, spirituality can be related to religion and even higher power. For others, it can be a non-religious experience such as connecting with nature, art, yoga, meditation, etc.
39
Our inner peace is more important than anger and other emotions of the ego. It does not depend on external circumstances, but on our willingness to forgive. Forgiveness frees us from any self-centred entanglements.
We do not have to belong to the same religion to be spiritually connected to each other. Our differences can enrich our relationships and help us to understand other perspectives. An open heart allows love to enter through many doors. Forgiveness is the key to our inner peace. ⛩️🧘
13
It has often been said that surrendering to a higher power can bring happiness, and this is certainly a sentiment shared by many followers of faiths around the world.
A new study published in Trends in Psychology has provided empirical evidence for this claim by examining the relationship between religiosity and depression symptoms.
31
15
The pursuit of success is a religion because, like other religions, it is a robust system of meaning-making that operates at emotional and cognitive levels, guides our decisions, contains its own morality, and is practiced en masse by a group of people sharing a largely unexamined ideology.
Enjoying the knowledge of one’s own enoughness while also honoring the imperative to possess some degree of social status might be the key to maintaining balance.
29
Tears speak a universal language, but their spiritual meaning is deeply personal.
Across spiritual traditions, tears are seen as more than simple sadness – they hold power and symbolism.
Imagine tears as a spiritual cleanse, washing away emotional burdens and negativity. Crying can be a release valve for pent-up feelings, bringing a sense of peace and renewal.

Zen builds upon core Buddhist philosophy. One reaches Zen in 2 ways:
Zen is really suspicious of concepts, words, etc. To get to the bottom of it one has to eliminate all words. To clear the mirror of our minds and let the dormant Buddha-nature shine.

41
Religion, philosophy, and the arts have long considered happiness a subject important to study.
The sciences, however, have only recently caught up: the scientific study of happiness has exploded over the past three decades.

While religion can bring a sense of purpose and community, it can also lead to conflict and exclusion. Extreme adherence to religious beliefs can create intolerance and division. It's important to approach religion with an open mind and respect for diversity.

The main idea behind this practice is the power knowledge gives to people. This practice revolves around the idea that ultimate liberation can happen with acquiring knowledge.
This is not only about learning new things about the world but most importantly, knowledge about yourselves. Self- reflection, who you are, why you do the things the way you do are the main principles of this spiritual practice.
To achieve this, people use methods like studying, meditation and contemplation.
Some of the most famous approaches are Buddhism, Jnana Yoga, Kabbalah.
36
All Christians believe in the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. However, the doctrine is about the relationship between these 3, more than their existence. The doctrine states:

The "theory of holes" is a concept within the Diamond Approach, as developed by A.H. Almaas. It pertains to the psychological and spiritual understanding of deficiencies or "holes" in the individual's sense of self. These holes arise due to certain childhood experiences where essential aspects of our being are not seen, appreciated, or responded to by our caregivers.
32
Religion: Religions are most often based upon the lives, teachings, and beliefs of a historical or archetypal figure (e.g., Christ, Buddha, Moses, Krishna, Muhammad).
Spirituality: By contrast, spirituality is more often based upon the practical application of the founder’s teachings.
5
Through religion, you are taught to have faith in God or the scriptures as being the infallible and ultimate truth of reality.
Spirituality doesn’t dismiss faith; however, it often leans more heavily on direct experience of the soul or divinity.
5
The core belief behind this type of spirituality is knowledge. Intellectually spiritual people are prone to gaining knowledge of spiritual theories and analyzing the information they get their hands on.
One form of this spiritual journey is studying theology, for example. However, this type of spirituality is not solely related to studying religion. Any knowledge that helps peopleimprove their spirituality is a form of intellectual spirituality.
40
The Diamond Approach recognizes that psychological blocks and childhood traumas can hinder spiritual development. By addressing and understanding these issues, individuals can remove barriers to spiritual insight.
33
Research shows that a lifestyle including religion or spirituality is generally a healthier lifestyle. That can be achieved through meditation, attending a religious service, or praying.
Nurturing your spirit, however, doesn't have to involve religion. It can involve anything that helps you develop a deeper sense of meaning, understanding, or connection with the universe.

Many Buddhist monks begin each day with this chant of gratitude:
“With gratitude I remember the people, animals, plants, insects, creatures of the sky and sea, air and water, fire and earth, all whose joyful exertion blesses my life every day.
With gratitude I remember the care and labor of a thousand generations of elders and ancestors who came before me…..
51
The theory of holes offers a framework for understanding how early experiences shape our self-perception and behaviors. By addressing these holes, one can move toward greater wholeness, authenticity, and spiritual realisation.
