Sharirmadhyam Khaludharamsadhyanam - Kalidas.   This body of ours is the medium for handling all our actions and a healthy body is a must for carrying out all the duties. Similarly, it’s said that a healthy body is the house of a healthy mind – This age old saying conveys a lot of sense and as body ages, significance of this saying becomes evidently clearer. Sehat hazaar Niyaamat is one more such saying. The list goes endless and everyone tries to convey that health is very important. A healthy person could handle any adverse situation and fight to survive. Therefore, it’s important to consider various approaches for remaining healthy. These includes yogic exercises, Mitaahar, etc. for bodily health but the key to inner health is “Mrityunjaya Kriya”.

I was in sixth standard and was good at studies. Most of my focus and time was going into creative thinking and working and balance of the time was for studies. In fact, doing or making some thing new was the passion. When a person will be focused on some thing then there will be distracters also that will try to break away from that focus. I used to get highly perturbed and used to complain a lot to my father. My general replies used to be that this thing is not finished as that person had disturbed me in between. My father’s replies used to be that he was trying to test whether you were fully focused or not. Now, take care next time. One day, I decided that nothing doing, its of no point to keep myself getting tested…. let me teach a lesson to those people who disturb me in the mid of my work…… My father could sense that I was up to something wrong and my brain was creatively moving on the wrong track.
