Jana gana mana…
The anthem that binds us together, the anthem that makes us get on our feet every time we hear it; not due to compulsion but due to respect and love for our country. It never fails to bring out the patriotism in all of us.
Being Indian came up with this beautiful video where our national anthem is sung by the people, for the people.
Happy Independence Day.

The external is the creation of the internal. Brahmam manifested itself as the Universe. God created the world; the world conferred the glory of ‘Creator’ on God. Through his yearning, imagination and intensity man endowed God with a form and name, and a bunch of attributes from which he hopes to benefit. But, God is above and beyond human traits and characteristics known as Gunas. Krishna told Arjuna in the Bhagavad Gita, “I have no need to engage Myself in any activity. But yet, I am busy acting, in order to promote the well-being of the Universe.” The Gita refers to its chapters as Yoga. Yoga means union of the Self with its source. How do the eighteen chapters, each aYoga, help man to fulfill his destiny? The Gita provides the answer: “Samathvam Yogam Uchyathe” (Yoga is being in a state of equal-mindedness or equanimity).
Hoss rode into town to buy a bull. Unfortunately, when he bought it, he was left with one dollar. Hoss needed to tell his wife to come with the truck and get the bull, but telegrams cost one dollar per word. Hoss said to the telegram man,”OK. I have my one word-‘comfortable’.” Why do you want to tell her that?” asked the telegram man. “Oh, she’s not the best reader,” Hoss said. “She’ll read it really slowly”. (Com-for-ta-ble, get it?)

How much do we love these photos? Viel, that’s how much.
Yes, we tip our hat today to the Contilla old people’s home in Essen, Germany – who had a wonderful idea for a calendar: getting residents to pose as famous actors in classic movie scenes.
From James Bond to Holly Golightly, ‘The Blues Brothers’ to ‘Saturday Night Fever’, check out the wonderful results below…
The Supreme Lord can assume countless forms including that of the entire cosmos. Hence scriptures declare, “The entire cosmos is God’s dwelling. All are forms of the Divine.” Seeing a Divine Incarnation people doubt whether God has such miraculous powers while He has the same body as themselves. People who find it difficult to perceive their oneness with the Self (Atma), fail to recognise the Avatar. Such people reviled Lord Krishna as a philanderer and a thief. Such accusations, born of delusion, will never undermine His greatness. Lord Krishna’s leelas were intended to reveal His Divinity. People make the same mistake about themselves; forgetting their inherent Divinity, they identify themselves with their bodies. Lord Krishna’s Avatar is to teach mankind to transcend their body consciousness.

#1 – KNOWLEDGE IS POWER
Those who know are ultimately much more confident in any arena than those shrouded in ignorance. Use your spare time to read up on the things that interest you, on the things that you are curious about, and build up a solid base of knowledge and critical thinking. The more you know, the more sure of yourself you will be in any situation.
#2 – EXPERIENCE
Uncertainty is the biggest drain on your self-confidence. Succumbing to doubt ensures you will never believe in yourself. The more often you do something, the more certain you become. With certainty comes confidence.
#3 – CARE-FREE ATTITUDE
Try to walk through your day with as easy and care-free of an attitude as you can muster, because someone who is it ease with him or herself is someone who is confident. Build unstoppable confidence by not getting hung up on the petty issues and minor irritations that help wear you down.
#4 – HONEST SELF-ASSESSMENT
Take stock of yourself. Brainstorm for a bit and compose a list of your good qualities and bad, the things you excel at and the things you need to improve upon, and once you have a clear picture of yourself much of the uncertainty that breeds doubt will wash away.
#5 – ANALYZE
Take the time to properly think through every problem, and the confidence in your skills will grow.
#6 – BE THOROUGH
Try to be as complete and thorough at every task you attempt . Completing tasks builds confidence in your ability to always see projects through to their proper conclusion .
#7 – IDENTIFY YOUR LIMITS AND EXCEED THEM
Once you have assessed yourself, make a list of goals you wish to accomplish, and get to work. You now know your true limits, so the only thing left to do is push beyond them and set your sights on new frontiers.
#8 – BE OPEN TO HELPING OTHERS
Don’t close yourself off to friends, acquaintances and coworkers. The more you put yourself out there in business and social situations, the more quickly you will build confidence in your ability to navigate these sometimes tricky waters.
#9 – COMPOSE YOURSELF
Dress well, groom yourself, compose your identity as a person who is well put together, and you will feel confident when meeting new people and doing new things.
#10 – BE DECISIVE
While it is okay to take time to analyze and think situations through, the time comes when you must be decisive and act. Decisive people are confident; not confident people are decisive.
#11 BE COMPLETE
Know yourself fully, wash away your own doubts about yourself, your identity and your capabilities, and present every aspect of yourself in every situation and you will have no reason to doubt your confidence. Become your full, real self.
