About the author

I am a teacher by profession and spiritual seeker for the past 11 years. I do my profession for bread winning but my very breathing is yoga and spirituality. The curiosity in me during graduation became a spark to enquire about Truth and resume the seeking process of my previous births. The idea of sharing my knowledge and experience with others was born out of indebtedness. I received school and college education with the help of various philanthropists whom I personally do not know. But, I strongly feel that I am indebted to return what I received. I enquired on what is (my) nature? what is sixth sense for? why am I called human being? what is education? how will it help people to be free of sorrows? Being a language teacher, I also enquired what is language? what is the role of language in human understanding? The answers I got enriched my understanding with certain insights on education, language, life, love and relationship. My knowledge and clarity would help a few seekers from confused and confined state to conscious state of what is what. Besides language teaching, I am a qualified teacher of yoga in India.

Education, Human Mind – First and Last War ~ Rajan

The war within human mind is not projected anywhere. It is more dangerous than any war that happened or yet to happen. It is ever happening from human civilization. The education system in the world aggravated such battle in the minds of people. The role of parents, teachers and the government is important in such phenomena. They instill so-called future goal, aim or ambition of life in children in the name of education which drifts apart soft and ignorant mind. In the corrupted world, the budding children grow to achieve something insisted by parents and teachers as target which may not match with their personal interest. They are psychologically divided and not able to follow either what their heart say and brain think that is conditioned by the society. It is called first and last war.

Being Conscious or Awakening means… ~ Rajan Thirumalai

Man lives in 3 different worlds - awaken, dream and deep sleep. He remains in dream state even after waking-up from sleep. Data received in the past keep coming, disturb all the senses and do not allow him to be completely conscious of reality.

Knowing – An Overview ~ Rajan Thirumalai

Studying means knowing some information through education. It deals with identifying things in terms of shape, name, colour, smell, taste, etc., and recalling them to apply when they are required. Whereas, learning means assimilating what we come to know. The one that you learn becomes part of you not as memory but patter of your very thinking, speaking and behaviour. The time duration of any study is limited or time bound whereas learning happens at every moment of wakeful life and lasts till our last breath.

Dependency to Independency ~ Rajan Thirumalai

As soon a child is born, it has to rely on its parents for everything. That is how a human baby comes to this earth. Compared to other species, it is far behind in self-dependency. Evolutionary theory says that it is due to the under development of brain which leads to be at rest to grow still further to start acquiring things. If we look at other species in animal kingdom, as soon as they are born, they start doing things like walking or swimming. Since human became completely dependent on brain, his physique lost its memory or strength to act as soon as his birth.
