In Search of the truth...

Its been a long time since I last wrote something and there has been so many things that have happened in this time gap.
There has been excitement... there has been introspection.. there has been sorrow...and there has been joy...
I have been reading a lot ... Fiction and Non Fiction ... Spirituality ...books on India...
Almost finished with the "Conversations with God" part two...got a copy of "Being Indian" and also "Jesus Lived in India"...and to follow that is "Celebrating Silence "
In the mean time the constant fight in the mind continues...The fight between the design mind and the non design mind.. one trying to outpower the other at all times... and am trying to look for answers from somewhere else...

As said the human is composed of the three main things : The body; the mond and the soul...The mind is an amazing thing with answers to almost all things that the world desires...and questions...But what do you do when the mind is in a turmoil.. in a whirlpool of emotions...constantly figuring out what is right for the soul...??
In such conditions.. you listen to what the soul says... The soul is the base and it is the ultimate thing... it is "THE THING" ...
Doing what the mind says and the body likes is happiness...Doing what the soul likes is happiness with satisfaction...
Having read a few articles by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar in the papers (Indian Express: Sunday edition), Times of India; in books Conversations with God by Neale Donald Walsch, God loves Fun by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, and also some teachings of Swami Vivekanand... I somehow feel that they all are trying to convey the same TRUTH. It somehow all boils down to the same thing...

I have felt this thing ... and also find exactly the same words appearing in front of me...(in fact in two different books i was zapped at the paragraphs also being same...!!); just that the sources are different... and the frame in which they speak are ofcourse different...
I believe that the need is there to look beyond... and see the things that are unseen...
There has been questions that has been popping up in my head..questions on Love, Power, Desire, Sex, Passion, Joy, Sorrow...
The mind is always travelling.. and travelling fast.. and one cannot stop it from doing that ...
the questions will come... and surely the answers will arrive sooner or later ... That I am sure that I will ultimately land up finding the Truth...
Have recently started reading Dan Brown's Angels and Demons... going on fine... again another novel about the church and Christianity...! Just taking a break from spirituality and religious books.. not very likely though...
