The Fires Within

 "Forest fire can be pacified but what about the fire of jealousy, ego and insecurity in people's hearts."

A forest fire, no matter how fierce, can be extinguished with water and effort. But what about the fires that burn within the human heart jealousy, ego, and insecurity? These inner flames are far more dangerous because they feed on thoughts and emotions, spreading silently and destroying relationships, peace, and self-worth. Unlike external fires, they cannot be doused with water; they require self-awareness, reflection, and conscious effort to calm. Only by understanding ourselves and controlling our inner world can we hope to pacify the destructive fires that lie within.

Happiness is Like a Guest - A Simple Thought Inspired by Rabindranath Tagore’s Athithi

Happiness is like a guest. It comes into our lives for a little while, makes us smile, and then quietly leaves. We cannot keep it forever, just like we cannot hold on to a guest who must go. Rabindranath Tagore’s short story Athithi (which means "The Guest") shows us this idea in a beautiful way. In the story, a young boy named Tarapada comes to a kind family. They treat him with love, and for a while, everyone is happy. But one day, without telling anyone, Tarapada leaves. He loved being with them, but he could not stay in one place. He wanted to be free. Tarapada is like happiness. He came, brought joy, and left. The story helps us understand that we should enjoy happy moments while they are with us. But when they pass, we should not be sad. Just like a good guest, happiness will come again one day. This teaches us to be thankful for the joy we have, even if it doesn’t last forever.

The Three Faces: Japanese Psychology

The Three Faces: Understanding Japanese Psychology and the Mask of Self-Expression Japanese psychology introduces a fascinating and insightful concept about the different "faces" that individuals wear in various situations. Known as tatemae and honne , these ideas are often used to describe the complexity of human behavior, especially when navigating social dynamics in a culture that places great emphasis on harmony, respect, and group cohesion. According to this theory, a person has multiple faces, or personas, which they adopt depending on the context and the people they interact with. These three faces are: The First Face: Tatemae (The Public Mask) The Second Face: Honne (The True Self) The Third Face: The Self With Close Relationships Each of these faces provides insight into how people balance social expectations and personal desires, shedding light on the pressure individuals may feel to conform or protect themselves emotionally. Let’s take a deeper look at these three...

Be Like a Seed; When Someone Tries to Compress You, You Make Your Way Out

  Life is not always smooth. Many times, people or situations try to hold us back. They try to control us, limit us, or press us down with negativity, criticism, or challenges. But in those moments, we must remember to be like a seed. A seed is very small and weak in appearance. It gets buried deep under the soil. The soil covers it, presses it from all sides, and keeps it in darkness. But the seed doesn’t give up. Instead, it gathers all its strength, grows roots, and pushes upward. It breaks through the soil and comes out into the sunlight. This is the power of patience, strength, and growth. In life, too, when people try to suppress you with words, actions, or by creating difficulties, don’t give up. Build your strength silently, stay positive, and keep moving forward. Remember, pressure can’t stop a seed from growing. And pressure shouldn’t stop you, either. Be like a seed, and when someone tries to compress you, rise above, break through, and create your own path towards succe...
