Everything in life is a choice you make

I N T R O D U C T I O N

If you don't know your past completely, you will repeat the same things in the future. If your Thoughts Per Second (TPS) can come down and you know your past as it happened, you won't repeat the same past in the future. You will then become a karma mukta, liberated from karma. As of now you are a karma bandha, bonded to karma because you have not lived your past completely. Your life is nothing but the totality of the conscious choices that you continuously make. Whether you believe it or not, directly or indirectly, you are choosing everything in your life.

No one else chooses for you in your life. It is you who makes the choice. Continuously, it is only your choice, your decision. You may think that somebody else decides your life. No! It is only you who is deciding all the time. Somebody criticizes or insults you and you choose to get offended. If somebody praises you, you choose to get flattered. Because of your habit, you choose this response unconsciously. Does someone else choose this for you? It is purely your choice. Because it has become a habit, you have forgotten that you are choosing. It is you who choose how to respond, what decisions to make. But you try to fool yourself and others into believing it is someone else who is responsible, who is making you do things their way.

You can decide to respond differently. For example, when someone criticizes you, you can choose not to get offended. You can choose to remain calm, relaxed and collected. It is your choice to feel offended. We always think we have been given unfair results.

This is because we are not able to connect the cause and the effect of many of the things that happen in our lives. We are blissfully unaware that we are the ones who caused the effects. We made it happen by way of unconscious living and ended up collecting more karma.

goals

To make the children understand about the TPS and gap in thought and about the totality of our choices and cause them to take responsibility for their life choices.

assessment

• What is TPS? When is TPS zero? What is kshana? Is kshana equal for all people? How will the kshana be when a person is restless? How will the kshana be when a person is calm? What do our action consists of? Who makes a choice in your life?
