Home Actress Rukmini Vijayakumar HD Photos and Wallpapers March 2022 Rukmini Vijayakumar Instagram - Day 22: #100daysofinnergrowth I’ve been listening to/ reading the Bhagavat Gita over the last few years…. Diligently… almost everyday. It’s not something that can be understood by a literal translation… a commentary and questioning argumentative analysis is necessary to clarify points. I can’t say that I’ve understood everything but my guru’s explanations are very comprehensive and I’m sure I’ll get there at some point. One thing that stood out - he said , “one should try to be a source of comfort for others” I’ve thought about this a lot and what it means to be a source of comfort… and I’ve contemplated my actions in the past where I haven’t been that source… At every point where I have failed to be that source is when I have been dissatisfied with myself, insecure perhaps, unhappy…. Because when one is happy and content with oneself, becoming a source of comfort for others is much easier … This is something that I’ve been trying to think about when I make choices… and I’m just reminding myself today to continue to try to do this… Photo: @anupjkat @vivianambrose (Shot while taking a break from Discovering Devi) #comfort #beingbetter #society #community #spiritualjourney #dancer #indianculture #bhagavatgita #tryingtobebetter #innerjourney

I’ve been listening to/ reading the Bhagavat Gita over the last few years…. Diligently… almost everyday. It’s not something that can be understood by a literal translation… a commentary and questioning argumentative analysis is necessary to clarify points.

I can’t say that I’ve understood everything but my guru’s explanations are very comprehensive and I’m sure I’ll get there at some point.

One thing that stood out – he said , “one should try to be a source of comfort for others”

I’ve thought about this a lot and what it means to be a source of comfort… and I’ve contemplated my actions in the past where I haven’t been that source…

At every point where I have failed to be that source is when I have been dissatisfied with myself, insecure perhaps, unhappy…. Because when one is happy and content with oneself, becoming a source of comfort for others is much easier …

This is something that I’ve been trying to think about when I make choices… and I’m just reminding myself today to continue to try to do this…

Rukmini Vijayakumar Instagram – Day 23: #100daysofinnergrowth 

The one thing that all creatures share in this world is the need for survival. From a virus to a human we all adapt and try to survive. 

The idea of ahimsa, and not hurting another is a part of so many philosophies. Including the Bhagavat Gita. We often think of this “hurt” as something physical … a philosophy that asks us not to kill another, but my Guru said that this concept of “hurt” encompasses all types of inflictions…  words, actions, etc 

This makes it much harder to practise. What we don’t want done to us, we don’t do to another person. 

Though I’ve been trying this … emotions get the better of us so often that it makes it very hard to practise. It may seem like such a simple thing, but it means that we have to constantly consider the other persons perspective in every scenario. 

Just my thought for today – to try to implement again into my daily life.

Rukmini Vijayakumar Instagram – Day 21: #100daysofinnergrowth 

What I’ve been trying to do recently is to consciously step out of myself to do something nice for someone else. Something that they least expect. It is certainly true that the satisfaction of doing a good thing for another person serves me well at the end… because I leave happy. But, it also means that I’m slowly learning to extend the idea of “me” beyond this one individual. 

It’s sometimes something very small, like opening a gate or waiting in a traffic signal. And other times it’s become more thoughtful…. (I don’t feel like sharing what I’ve been doing) … but they are actions that have taken time, thought and effort… 

And these actions have no material/ emotional benefit to me… only the satisfaction and joy of doing something with someone else’s comfort and happiness in mind. 

This one is really growing on me 😊

This picture isn’t in the book… but it’s beautiful nevertheless.
