                       Auto suggestions  & Self motivation
           
                  "An idle mind is a devil's workshop" is quote to warn all those who are idling and wasting their life .I wrote in my blog dated 01 Sep 2017 titled as "Thoughts are dynamic and vital " about how we had spent about 480 days at the icy Continent Antarctica




                         Every member of the 15 member wintering time had specific task to perform,including the Leader.The team leader Col.Ganesan was selected as a Civil Engineer,over & above his role of command and control of the team.He was to be assisted by one Electrician and one carpenter. The team  in a nutshell was an excellent selection and every one was a best one in his trade.So Col Ganesan did not have much role to play as an Engineer.But he did not idle away his time.


              He was already on his way to "Vanapprastham".Just to give an out line of Hidu Philosophy,human being life is of four stages.
                     Brahmacharyam
                      Grahastham
                      Vanapprastham
                     Sanyaasam.
         Each one is to be  practiced for about 25 years and that is how we are expected to live for 100 years.This Time schedule is modified according to the "Karma "of the individuals.For Ganesan ,the first phase of "Brahmacharyam " went upto 32 years,and was on "Grahastham "when the Antarctic tenure cut short of that phase and sent him to next phase "Vanapprastham " when he was 45 years old.
So by force he was to practice Vanapprastham and the icy continent was the ideal place of isolation.
                   He started studying in greater detail about this phase and  every Saturday on weekly pooja time,used to brief the members about "Philosophy of Life "  (No alternative ! ! ! My team members may forgive me.)
             Some of the quotes are for you.



     1.         Motivation,persistence,and perseverance are the distinct    traits of determined,dedicated individuals who can make              things happen.
      2.       A harmonious association of powers ,simultaneous and quick concentration of all senses leads to success unknown to history.One plus one does not always equals two.Sometime the combination of two independent substances result in an alley with qualities far superior to the sum of original ingredients.Look around at all times "the one plus one not equal to two "theory in your world.
  3.    Your thoughts create chemical changes in your body.Creative thoughts give you strength and destructive thoughts reduce your strength.
   4.        Many great medical experts are of the opinion that "we will by conscious command evolve cerebral centers which will permit us to use powers that we are now not even capable of imagining.   

    5.          Achievement is the inevitable and natural by-product of awareness.
    6.      Practice and imagination are the two keys for successful life .Slowly and steadily through practice you set up communication links with unconscious to tap the reserves of the mind.Gradually conscious control of so called involuntary functions develops. By practice relaxations of stress becomes automatic.Once the body is under autogenic control 
Autogenic training is a desensitization-relaxation technique developed by the German psychiatrist Johannes Heinrich Schultz by which a psychophysiologically determined relaxation response is obtained.) 
affirmation for better performance is just a follow through.




                Most eastern  philosophers hold that we live in a bright vital sea of energy -yogis call this "PRANA".Oriental acupuncture recognizes this same energy calls it "CHI ."This energy is in the atmosphere and also circulates along specific path ways in the body according to Chinese. Just as we transform the food we eat to our own use ,so do we transform "PRANA "to maintain and develop ourselves.Regulated breathing enables us to extract a greater supply of PRANA from the air.The body accumulates  PRANA as a battery does electricity..This energy Yogis say,gives the body vitality and nourishes  consciousness .PRANA  absorbed by the brain is responsible for unfolding mental abilities and physical powers.Like oxygen ,PRANA is said to keep us going whether or not we are aware of it.
           Each one of us are born with a purpose .Identifying ,acknowledging and honoring this purpose is the most important thing.Do not limit your wishes based on the available facts.Aim high so that all your brain cells will work towards achieving the high aim.
            Brain researchers estimate that your unconscious data base out weighs the conscious on an order exceeding ten million to one.This data base is the source of your hidden,natural genius.In other words a part you is much smarter than you are.The wise people regularly consult that smart part .You may call it consciousness,intuition ,luck or anything.Remember that intellect has little to do on the road to discovery.
           
                These type of studies gave strength to Ganesan and carry on with the work.As time passed the polar night (six months no sun light ) started.Out team had organised varieties of games and entertainment which was beyond the imagination.

                              No doubt that our wintering was the most successful period in my life.I am sure that my team members where ever they are will countersign my statement.
