Understanding Mindfulness

To live mindfully is to live in the moment and reawaken oneself to the present, rather than dwelling on the past or anticipating the future. To be mindful is to observe and label thoughts, feelings, sensations in the body in an objective manner. Mindfulness can therefore be a tool to avoid self-criticism and judgment while identifying and managing difficult emotions.

Mindfulness is rooted in Buddhist and Hindu teachings. Buddhism includes a journey toward enlightenment, and the concept of "sati" which encompasses attention, awareness, and being present, is considered the first step toward enlightenment. The term was roughly translated from the ancient language Pali into the term "mindfulness."

The emergence of mindfulness in Western culture can be attributed to Jon Kabat. Kabat-zinn studied mindfulness under several Buddhist teachers, such as Phillip Kapleau and Thich Nhat Hanh. As a professor at the University of Massachusetts medical school in the late 1970s, Kabat-Zinn developed a program called Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) to treat chronic pain. His discovered that patients would often try to avoid pain-but that avoidance would lead to deeper distress. Practicing mindfulness was a more successful approach.

As mindfulness shift into mainstream science and medicine, it became a pivotal therapeutic technique; it was integrated into Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, among others.

What is mindfulness?

Mindfulness encompasses two key ingredients: awareness and acceptance. Awareness in the knowledge and ability to focus attention on one's inner processes and experiences, such as the experience of the present moment. Acceptance is the ability to observe and accept-rather than judge or avoid-those streams of thought.

What is the purpose of mindfulness?

The goal of mindfulness is to cultivate perspective on one's consciousness and identity that can bring greater peace mentally and relationally. Mindfulness may also be used in mindfulness-based therapies, to address stress, anxiety, or pain, simply to become more relaxed.

What is the history of Mindfulness?

Mindfulness has its origins in Buddhist and Hindu teachings, from which the concept "sati" was roughly translated to "mindfulness." The practice was popularized in the West through the work of Jon-Kabat Zinn. Zinn created Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction to treat pain., anxiety, and stress, and he ultimately brought mindfulness into mainstream clinical practice.

What's the difference between mindfulness and flow?

Flow is a state in which one completely absorbed in an activity and loses self-awareness. Flow and mindfulness both involve deep concentration-but only flow involves goal-directed behavior. While mindfulness channels concentration toward skills and goal achievement, which might include thoughts of the past and future and judgment of those thoughts.

What's the difference between mindfulness and meditation?

Mindfulness is one form of meditation. Meditation utilize various practices to quiet the mind or achieve a higher level of consciousness, one of which is mindfulness. Mindfulness can be cultivated within or outside of formal meditation and woven into any activity, such as taking a walk or being engaged in conversation.

Practicing Mindfulness

A person's experience of time tends to be subjective and heavy influenced by their emotional states. Fears and insecurities about the past and the future can make it difficult to fully appreciate the present. The key is learning how to pay attention.

Mindfulness can talk place through meditation sessions or smaller moments throughout the day. To cultivate a state of mindfulness, you can begin by sitting down and taking deep breaths. Focus on each breath and sensations of the moment, such as sounds, scent, the temperature, and the feeling of air passing in and out of the body.

Shift your attention, then to the thoughts and emotions that you're experiencing. Allow each though to exist without judging it to ascribing negative to it. Sit with those thoughts. The experience may evoke a strong emotional reaction. Exploring that response can be an opportunity to address or resolve underlying challenges.

How do I practice mindfulness?

To cultivate awareness; observe your thoughts and emotions and explore why those specific ideas might be surfacing . To cultivate acceptance, avoid judging or pushing away unpleasant thoughts. Emotions are natural and everyone has acknowledged them can help you understand yourself better and move forward.

How can I be more mindful?

Mindfulness care help bring you into the present moment throughout the day. As you wake up, can focus on your breathing and the way your body gradually becomes more energized. You can incorporate a brief meditation into you work day, perhaps on your lunch break, and focus and appreciate the experience of eating during meals.

Why in mindfulness so popular

Mindfulness has been embraced by corporate leaders, sports teams, the military, and countless individuals around the world. The practice may owe its popularity to today's face-pace, technology-driven world, rife with financial and time pressures. Mindfulness may represent an unmet need to moments of quite, contemplation, and calm.

The Benefits of Mindfulness

Mindfulness is frequently used in meditation and certain kinds of therapy. It's benefits include lowering stress levels, reducing harmful ruminating, and protecting against depression and anxiety. Research even suggest that mindfulness can help people better cope with rejection and social isolation.

Does mindfulness really work?

Review studies suggest that mindfulness-baser intervention can help reduce anxiety, depression, and pain. To a lesser extent, they can alleviate stress and improve quality of life. However, inconsistencies in the way mindfulness is defined and measured make it difficult to determine whether mindfulness really provides other benefits.

How does mindfulness help relieve anxiety?

Mindfulness encompasses awareness and acceptance, which can help people understand and cope with uncomfortable emotions, allowing them to gain control and relief. To cultivate these skills, concentrate on breathing to lengthen and deepen you breaths. Foster an awareness of the the five senses. Noticing your thoughts and feelings, and practice curiosity and self-compassion

Can mindfulness help me break had habits?

Mindfulness can play a role in helping people break habits such as smoking or overreacting. When a habit has developed, the trigger (hunger) prompts a behavior (eating) that leads to a reward (satisfaction). Becoming aware of the behavior and what is derived from it can help alter the reward and place it with a healthier behavior.

Can mindfulness help my relationship?

Higher levels of mindfulness predict happier and more satisfying relationships, research suggests. It's difficult to disentangle whether mindfulness directly caused those improvements, but mindfulness does benefit key relationships skills, such as being present and attentive, regulate emotions, being self-aware, and cultivate empathy and compassion.

INTERVIEW #5

"What do I believe about reincarnation? Well, I absolutely embrace and believe in it as a Hindu. Only the body is perishable; the spirit (atman or jivan) is basically everlasting. After passing away, the soul has a number of experiences (commonly referred to as an afterlife, but in most instances it is also a before-life) before being transferred into a new body. I believe that reincarnation occurs for all living things, not just humans, and that souls can take on the form of spirits or other creatures in distant realms of existence as well as bodies belonging to any species, including plants and animals.

Karma and Vasana, or the person's past deeds and present intentions, decide which new body or bodies are available to the soul or that the soul is brought into. If they took activities that brought happiness, they will inherit a birth that is expected to be happy; if they took actions that brought pain, they will inherit a birth that is expected to suffer as a result of its circumstances. The traits and affiliations of the soul will also influence the type of birth.

I believe that the cycle of reincarnation will continue indefinitely until or until a person has certain spiritual epiphanies via personal experience. The most significant way to achieve this ultimate liberation, also referred to as Moksha, Mukti, Nirvana, or Kaivalya, is by ethical living. However, there are also many distinct Yoga Margas, or spiritual routes, that one can follow.

I believe it is feasible to remember one's prior lives, but doing so is typically not beneficial and may even be counterproductive because it runs the danger of reawakening old attachments that one has let go of. This understanding is typically attained by intense focus during meditation that approaches enlightenment, but once attained, it can also be partially passed on from birth to birth.

I believe that this information was widely known in antiquity. It was and still is a foundational principle of the majority of Paganisms, as well as of Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism, the Celtic Druids, Germanic Paganism, the Inuit, many Indigenous North and South American traditions, some Indigenous Australian traditions, many Greek and Roman philosophical traditions (including those of Pythagoras, Socrates, Pherecydes of Syros, Ennius, Virgil, and Plato).

I believe that the widespread acceptance of reincarnation teachings stems from a form of direct experience-based primordial spiritual knowledge that is shared by all of humanity. Only major, genocidal cultural catastrophes have altered this knowledge, in my opinion."

[y0ur-maj3sty]

A universe can be described as a material life form that is going through its own development and evolution in order to supply wisdom to the Creation that started it. Creation has an awake period, during which it creates a material universe for learning, and then a sleep period, where there is no material existence. It then reawakens and starts the cycle over again at a higher evolution. It is this pattern which permeates all things and provides the explanation for how all life forms evolve.

This why the Hindus say that everything (1)Starts, (2)Does something, (3)then Stops. Brahma-Vishnu-Shiva = Generation, Operation, Dissolution = GOD. The cycle of the universe is God..the Most High. It’s not a fictional man in space watching over us and judging us, because we humans already do those things ourselves.

Bengal Renaissance:

The idea of renaissance caters the concept of a glorious past, a history of deterioration in the intermediate period and a journey towards the restoration of the lost glory through various means of societal foundations and fields. The word ‘renaissance’ holds the literal meaning of rebirth or reawakening. The line of thought started gaining popularity in Bengal prominently in 19th century, though the distribution was unequal. The literatures of that time entertained the idea thoroughly though the absence of equality in the distribution created a target audience who resembled nothing more than an echo chamber. The concept of renaissance or reawakening was mostly pushed by the upper class, upper caste men of the society, often writers. India never had its own history to be precise. The model was launched by the British writers. They had divided their own in the column of ‘ancient,’ ‘middle,’ ‘modern,’ and tried to use the own template which writing the history of India. Hence the idea of ‘middle age as the dark era’ was subjective. To the east Asia, this time was a reminder of golden hours while in the European context, this time was a throwback to the chaotic hours, when the British started to decide the history of India, it used its usual font of depicting the Muslim countries as the invaders and the Muslim population as the ‘others.’ It was these writers, these gatekeepers of cultural virtues, who made their work easier, for the texts these writers wrote, propagated the idea of the ‘foreign savior.’ Since the Europeans were on the losing side of the wars which is evident from their depiction of their description of the era, the wars took place in, they adopted the path of willful amnesia. Willful amnesia or a self-initiated effort to internalize the idea of forgetting, as a defense mechanism made them to label the ages of religious wars as ‘dark’ and writing their history accordingly. When the same procedure was used on the Indian history, the idea was taken up by the writers with immense socio-economic privilege, to write about the restoration of the glorious past of the country, that is the ‘Hindu’ era, before it was invaded by the Muslims and tried to build up a cultural resistance that way. This created the ‘otherization’ on a prominent level and the race who held the roots of this system of segregation, i,e the Europeans, acted out their process of colonization as the foreign saviors. As the process got initiated without any major violent face-off and as they posing as mere traders went successful, in no time they were able to establish themselves as a trustworthy assistant in thwarting the rule of the ‘Muslim invaders.’

‘Anandamath’ penned down by Bankimchandra Chattyopadhyay displays the characteristics of a 19th century novel, as discussed before. The influence of Sanskrit in Bankim’s life isn’t unknown. From learning the Sanskritic tradition and remaining in the contact of the scholars of Bhatpara to reviewing Sanskritic publications in ‘Bangadarshan’ and referring Sanskritic notions in his writings including ‘Anandamath’ are examples of how he valued the traditional ways of life and how strong was his urge to restore the ‘lost Hindu glory.’ ‘Anandamath’ becomes the perfect reflection of that. The novel keeps the famine background during Mir Jafar’s rule which was a cunning motive by the novelist to portray a situation of anarchy during the Muslim rule, thereby suggesting that a foreigner can only loot from the land and can never do any good for the countrymen and are only here to destroy the cultural heritage. “Mir Jafar took opium and slept, the British took in the money and issued receipts, and Bengal wept and went to ruin.” With clarity, the sentence exempts the British from the guilt of torturing the common folks in collecting revenues and places the entire responsibility of the well being of the Bengalis on the Muslim ruler to support the claim of ‘foreign saviors’ in a very subtle way. The support for the British Raj in India is expressed more clearly in the novel when the character known as ‘sage’ is having a conversation with Satyananda of Santan Dal’ regarding the outward and inward knowledge of Hinduism and says, “we must bring in the outward knowledge from another country. The English are very knowledgeable in the outward knowledge, and they’re very good at instructing people. Therefore we’ll make them king.” So the whole concept of making Bengal a Hindu state from the clutches of a Muslim ruler through the hands of ‘foreign saviors’ becomes evident in the narration. The ‘Santan Dal’ present in the novel carries out the Hindutwa agenda by attacking Muslim households, burning villages with Muslim population, attracting people by their Hindu identity and always expressed their agenda being the freeing of motherland, restoring her lost glory from the ‘foreign’ hands but the subjects of alienation were not the British but the Muslims. It becomes clear from Bhabananda’s comment, “the English are not our enemies. But why are you here to help the Muslims?” He even adds later, “Victory to the English! We wish you well!” Thus the legitimization of the colonization gets propagated through a fictious adaptation of the Sanyasi Rebellion but not against the white-skinned foreigners. The Sepoy Mutiny against the British, therefore never had any support from these upper caste, upper class Hindu men.

As mentioned before, the ideas of this so called new awakening weren’t distributed in the equal basis. The literatures concerned with the rebirth of the Bengali Hindu culture were targeted towards the upper middle class, middle class audience by the writers who had huge amount of social capital as their backup. The targeted audience had the leisure to indulge into the cultural activities due to their class position. The middle class Bengali young rebels were so influenced by ‘Anandamath’ that there was a rumor of them getting radicalized enough to keep revolvers in their bags along with the copy of this book. The novel though starts with the accounts of people suffering from the high taxes, famine, epidemic, hunger, are starving to pay the taxes, selling the family members and Bhabananda telling Mahendra that a king who doesn’t look after his subjects shouldn’t have any right to ask taxes, after the Santan Dal have taken charge of a village Satyananda advises them to collect taxes, but this time, for the cause of buying weapons to face the royal army and make the motherland free by establishing the Hindu rule and restoring the ‘lost glory.’ The economic deterioration is presented to evoke purgatory responses from the readership from their positions of privilege. The novel though is subtle on its caste angle but not enough to be considered nil. The memberships of Santan Dal happen after the interested ones reveal their caste. Even the child of Mahendra and Kalyani doesn’t get spared of this question. Though Satyananda says that every Santan should think of the other as equal as all are ‘The Children’ of the Mother, the protagonists are all from the privileged section of the society. Hence, the class of the targeted audience who only get concerned with the society when the ‘culture’ gets attacked as the other aspects of life were in abundance for them, what is better than a Hindu revivalist novel where the writer can make up an attack on culture and manipulate it for his own needs?

Preaching for colonization in the garb of Hindutwa propaganda isn’t an easy task but Bankim managed it quite well. The idea of the ‘Mother’ figure and her Hindu sons fighting the Muslim ‘foreigners’ yet welcoming the ones with white skin can only be done if the former idea propagates the concept of Sanskritization and the latter gets managed with a vague concept of outward and inward projections of the Eternal code and the outward expression being lost and can be revived by the help of the British people. The concept of willful amnesia and the notions of pre-conceived theory sit here well. The former directs the author into preaching that the antagonist in his writings has nothing good to do and is here to ruin things during his reign. The latter helps in the plot, and tells the writer to think that the ‘foreign savior’ can be used to revive the lost culture as they have ‘advanced’ ideas about things and can be used to undo the effects of the ruins made by the antagonist. Self contradiction is also a feature of the novels of 19th century. Hence, when Satyananda laments that he couldn’t establish the Hindu rule and the British will now rule by saying, “Oh Mother, I’ve not been able to set you free. Once more you’ll fall into the hands of unworthy foreigners,” the sage, a personification of the said feature advises him that ‘this’ foreigner’s help is needed to serve the bigger goal.

The novel, ‘Anandamath’ serves its purpose well. It mocks the strength of the sepoys by comparing it to those of the British ones, to glorify the foreigners the author has chosen to aid. The fight takes place among the Santans and the British too but the latter don’t bear the grudge as the author felt they would be needed to serve the politics of the revival of lost cultural glory. Though it fails to establish the Hindu rule, the win against British soldiers do serve as a trailer to project the might of the Hindus before the Muslim rule and a small hint that one day this community will ‘take back’ the country from the Englishmen and establish its own rule.
