<p>The German philosopher Schopenhauer asked the question, “How can we determine whether a man is happy or unhappy?” He
  defined true happiness as the complete satisfaction of all desires. You could say that the happiness of a person can
  be described mathematically as:<br>

<p>So if you have ten desires and five are fulfilled, you have fifty percent happiness. If ten are fulfilled, you have
  one hundred percent happiness. The more desires you have, the harder it will be to fulfil them all, and so the less
  happy you will be. Happiness is inversely related to numbers of desires.</p>
<p>What happens when you have no desires at all? The denominator becomes zero. Anything you divide by zero is infinity.
  If you have zero desires, limitless will be your happiness.</p>
<p>In this desireless state, we don’t expect anything. When we don’t expect anything, we don’t play games with ourselves
  or with others. We don’t manipulate others because we don’t expect anything from anyone.</p>

Remember yourself

Allen was a British mystic and philosopher, known for his inspirational books and poetry and as a pioneer of the selfhelp movement. Born in Leicester, England, to a working-class family, he left school at fifteen to support the family, after his father died. In 1903 he retired to devote himself to writing and moved with his wife and daughter to a small cottage in Devon, where he spent the rest of his life. As A Man Thinketh has influenced many contemporary writers and has inspired millions to recognize that our visions can become reality, simply through the power of thought.

James Allen (1864 – 1912)

<p class="text-justify lh-base" style="text-align: justify; ">Until thought is linked with purpose, there is no
    intelligent accomplishment. With the majority, the barque of thought is allowed to ‘drift’ upon the ocean of life.
    Aimlessness is a vice, and such drifting must not continue for him who would steer clear of catastrophe and
    destruction.</p>
<p class="text-justify lh-base">They who have no central purpose in their life fall an easy prey to petty worries,
    fears, troubles and self-pitying. All of these are indications of weakness, which lead, just as surely as
    deliberately planned sins (though by a different route), to failure, unhappiness and loss, for weakness cannot
    persist in a power-evolving universe.</p>
<p class="text-justify lh-base">A man should conceive of a legitimate purpose in his heart and set out to accomplish it.
    He should make this purpose the centralising point of his thoughts. It may take the form of a spiritual ideal or it
    may be a worldly object, according to his nature at the time being. But whichever it is, he should steadily focus
    his thought-forces upon the object which he has set before him. He should make this purpose his supreme duty, and
    should devote himself to its attainment, not allowing his thoughts to wander away into ephemeral fancies, longings
    and imaginings. This is the royal road to self-control and true concentration of thought.</p>
<p class="text-justify">Even if he fails again and again to accomplish his purpose (as he necessarily must until
    weakness is overcome), the strength of character gained will be the measure of his true success, and this will form
    a new starting point for future power and triumph.</p>
<p class="text-justify lh-base">Those who are not prepared for the apprehension of a great purpose should fix the
    thoughts upon the faultless performance of their duty, no matter how insignificant their task may appear. Only in
    this way can the thoughts be gathered and focused, and resolution and energy be developed, which being done there is
    nothing which may not be accomplished.</p>

<h4 style="text-align: justify;">KAMLESH D. PATEL explains how the second law of thermodynamics plays out in our
    relationships, leading to disintegration and breakdown, and shares with us the inputs needed to overcome entropy,
    bringing stability and harmony.</h4>
<hr class="vertical-space1">
<p>What is entropy?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Let’s try to understand it practically. You bring a book home from the library, and then
    your father gives you another book as a gift. Your girlfriend gives you magazines, and you have music CDs. They all
    pile up on a small table in your room, so now there will be enough clutter on your table. The rest of your room is
    also in a disorganized state: your clothes are here, your socks are there and your towel is hanging somewhere. This
    is a disintegrated system; the system has gone haywire.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">You get frustrated with the mess and clean everything up. You put each book where it
    belongs, wash your laundry and make your bed. Now the room looks cleaner than before, until again you start bringing
    more books and things, and again the system disintegrates and becomes disorganized. To keep things in order requires
    constant energy input.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">So entropy is the degree of disorder or randomness in any system. The second law of
    thermodynamics says that entropy increases with time. It reflects the instability of a system over a period of time
    if there is nothing to stabilize it.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In human relationships, we have interactions day after day and these relationships also
    become higgledy-piggledy. We let things build up in our inner chambers. These inner chambers become more and more
    disorganized as we store more and more, just like the books and clothes in our room. We keep harboring things, and
    one day what we harbor explodes, unless we do something about it. We need input to stabilize any relationship, to
    iron out the wrinkles or differences, so that we don’t harbor and store things forever.</p>

    <hr class="vertical-space1">
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #d0ae5e;">This is the first in a series of articles by KAMLESH
        D. PATEL about the evolution of consciousness, and how spiritual practices are designed to help consciousness
        expand and evolve.</span></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">When we talk about weaving a destiny, a future for ourselves, what do we mean? In
      the worldly sense, we want a good life. From my one-bedroom apartment, I want a five-bedroom house; from owning
      one factory I hope to own ten factories; I dream of being promoted from the position of a clerk to that of a CEO;
      I want a happy and fulfilling family life, and to raise children who also have fulfilling lives.</p>

    <hr class="vertical-space1">
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #d0ae5e;">In this second article, KAMLESH D. PATEL explores one
        of the three bodies in depth, the subtle body, and how it evolves.</span></p>
    <p>Which body evolves?</p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">Understanding that we have these three bodies – physical, subtle and causal – we can
      then ask, which of these bodies is evolving? …&nbsp;It is the subtle body that can evolve, so that we can design
      our destiny. It changes according to how we purify and simplify it, so that the joy of the soul shines and
      radiates from within, and through this process we find the evolution of consciousness.</p>

    <hr class="vertical-space1">
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #d0ae5e;">In this third article, KAMLESH D. PATEL introduces us
        to the journey we embark upon to expand consciousness and the role of Yogic Transmission in that journey.</span>
    </p>
    <p>There is another&nbsp;process that aids our journey into higher and higher states of consciousness. Without it,
      we would not manouver the obstacles, like with any journey into unknown universes. That vital ingredient is Yogic
      Transmission, known in the yogic literature as <em>pranahuti</em>. More particularly, it is Yogic Transmission
      utilized by a teacher of caliber.<br>

    <hr class="vertical-space1">
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #d0ae5e;">KAMLESH D. PATEL explores with us in more detail how
        we become entangled in worldly issues, how that expresses in the spiritual anatomy of a human being, and what we
        can do to remove the impressions that form.</span></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">Without cleaning of the subtle body, there is no real evolution. What needs to be
      cleaned from the subtle body? If you can close your eyes for a moment and imagine the subtle body, the heart-mind
      field of a human being, as a vast field of subtle energy, of consciousness. …&nbsp;So how do we form impressions
      in the subtle body? In this article we understand the way they form, and how each impression is drawn by its
      vibration to a particular centre in the human system.</p>

    <h3 style="text-align: center;">The Spectrum of Consciousness</h3>
    <hr class="vertical-space1">
    <p><span style="color: #d0ae5e;">In this article, KAMLESH&nbsp;D. PATEL&nbsp;shares with us some more thoughts on
        the spectrum of consciousness.</span></p>
    <p>‘Consciousness’ is a popular word these days in the field of mind-body medicine, and also at the cutting edge of
      research in science and spirituality and the quantum field. The idea of a spectrum of consciousness is not new.
      Yogis and mystics have written about it since time immemorial, and more recently also western psychoanalysts and
      psychologists like Carl Jung and Ken Wilbur.</p>
    <p>What do we learn from this literature? It tells us there is a vast spectrum of consciousness in a human being,
      spanning the subconscious mind through consciousness and all the way to the superconscious realm, most of which we
      don’t understand.<br>

    <h3 style="text-align: center;">Yoga</h3>
    <hr class="vertical-space1">
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #d0ae5e;">In this article, KAMLESH D. PATEL explains more about
        the vastness that is Yoga.</span></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">Yoga is all about personal experience. So far&nbsp;we have looked at the three
      bodies of a human being – the physical, subtle and the causal bodies. Yoga developed as a practical method to help
      us refine all these three bodies, to achieve our purpose of human evolution. The experience of the finer states
      generated in yogic practice is for the benefit of all humanity. Many people these days associate the word ‘Yoga’
      with a set of techniques for physical and mental well-being: <em>asanas</em>, breathing exercises, relaxation and
      meditation. But this is not a comprehensive understanding of Yoga. In the traditional yogic literature there are
      thirty-five different principles and methods that make up Yoga, and they form an integrated whole. What are these
      thirty-five? And how can we really benefits from the techniques Yoga has to offer in the 21st century?</p>

    <hr class="vertical-space1">
    <p><span style="color: #d0ae5e;">In this issue, KAMLESH D. PATEL asks, “Why should we want to expand our
        consciousness towards a higher destiny?”</span></p>
    <p>We have been talking so much about the evolution of consciousness, but what is the purpose of all this? Why
      should we be so interested in this field of evolution of the mind? Why do we need to purify our consciousness and
      heart? …</p>
    <p>A calm balanced mind gets us to first base, but is that the only reason we meditate? No, it is just the start.
      Having a mind that is still is great, but then what will you do with that still mind?</p>

    <hr class="vertical-space1">
    <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #d0ae5e;">In this article, KAMLESH D. PATEL shares with us some
        of the outcomes of an expanded consciousness, including the ability to understand the universe.</span></p>
    <p style="text-align: justify;">The purpose of life is to facilitate expansion of available consciousness to its
      fullest potential. This expansion eventually takes us to a state of lightness and joy, where the subtle body is
      pure, simple and refined, where there is no longer any separation between the heart and the mind – they are one,
      with the heart as the field of action for the mind and vice versa. This integrated, holistic state of being is
      known as Yoga. All the practices of Yoga are designed to bring about this state of oneness, or unity with the
      Source of all existence.</p>
