Relating Better

Here are 3 simple mantras to relate better…

- Megha Bajaj

I me. I feel scared. I feel angry. I feel hurt. I sometimes even wonder why I am not getting what others are. The beauty of being a seeker and striving to better myself is – most of the time I feel blissful, peaceful, immense love and gratitude – but I certainly can't claim that the darker emotions don't visit me now and then.

Each of us have our Achilles heel and for me its relationships.

I have got the one with myself, and my God reasonably right and when I am alone, or immersed in thoughts of Him, I feel complete. However, when it comes to relating with the world – there are still chinks in my armour.

I had never really understood how to cultivate deep, meaningful relationships which allow me to be the best me – and also allow the other to remain who he/she is. How to maintain individuality as well as a team spirit? How to know when to give in, and when to stay put?
