Words: Dr Rajgopal NIDAMBOOR All of us have within us an impelling attribute — one that keeps us going. It is called attitude. It is this one big thing that drives us to be what we want to be, no matter what. When you compound attitude with yet another propelling quality, the divine power principle,

Words: Dr Rajgopal NIDAMBOOR There is a participatory progression in everything that occurs, or happens, around us. This relates to, in each and every sense, a reciprocal intent — one that also articulates something that is apparent. Picture this — we are able to touch, also feel, things. This is because anything that is touchable

Words: Dr Rajgopal NIDAMBOOR Stress is nothing short of an omnipresent, omniscient and omnipotent element. It runs in our veins, our mind, and also our physiology. It does not matter whether you are a genius, average, or whatever. Stress transcends us all — although the ‘stress’ that you have, or apprehend the most, may be

Words: Dr Rajgopal NIDAMBOOR Consciousness, as we all know, or deem to discern, is primarily the equivalent connotation of our mind.

Words: Dr Rajgopal NIDAMBOOR Most ancient philosophers alluded to intuition as being the ticket for direct access. The big question also remained constant: intuition for what? Was it intuition for obvious, or intangible, objects, numbers, appearances, or their elemental properties — or, all our emotional contexts? Plato, for one, thought of intuition as being our

Words: Dr Rajgopal NIDAMBOOR Many of us have a way with ourselves. We feel we are ‘victims’ for no real reason. The point is we never asked that we be born at a particular time, on a particular day, or year.  We did not ask for what we got to begin with. It was only

Words: Dr Rajgopal NIDAMBOOR Many of us go through a unique experience with certain individuals who come into our life, not just by happenstance, but also for a celestial reason.
