Pratipaksha Bhavana - Pratipaksha means " opposite" and bhavana "emotions, feelings"
This word has so deep meaning which explains us to think positive whenever you get negative emotions. Example, if you are running and u fall down especially it happens in case of a child when he/she falls down what we do??
We immediately divert the child's mind to something opposite. We cuddle with love and show some different happy object or clap and motivate the child. Such quality therefore is inherent in us but the only difference is as we grow we fail to practice Pratipaksha Bhavana. With this very simple and yet so beautiful I am trying to help all my readers that it is so important to see positive in negative situations. My previous blog has clearly defined how things are transitory and its important not to get attached with any emotions, thoughts but to be mindful of what is important for our mental & physical upliftment.
Remember nothing is permanent and We should focus on our routine activities without being attached to any emotions. Emotions being negative and positive therefore any negative emotions that occurs we have to develop opposite feeling of positive mental attitude.
Like if there is a big loss in the business and our immediate reactions comes from different things we are attached to like money, lifestyle, relations, material possessions. Now, how shall we look positive in such a situation??
My simple answer is Do what u feel best and leave it on rest. There are multiple options and every options will have best and worst side to it. A person who is balanced and willing to accept will accept both and decide. Failures are part of life and no one can deny as long as we are trying and happy. If your mental condition gets unstable I suggest take a break and spend time in learning which gratifies your buddhi. See and explore the challenges and find out the way to it without putting toll on your mental calmness.
Thus, Writing 10 positive points daily helps in feelings of gratitude for every small and big things we have in life. Without complaining for bigger aspirations see the basic food, nature, air, water, sunlight, daily food, daily clothes, internal well being, access to technology, ability to think and write, create.
This daily habit of writing 10 positive points or at least 5 positive points daily creates a psychological changes in a human mind. therefore it has a therapeutic effect also. if a person is low in mood or depress, such activity helps a person to relate to the positive things in life. Sometimes we are so engrossed in daily work that we actually don't put our attention towards life we are living, food we are eating and the mind we are developing.
Things just go on piling up and we stop looking life in a curious manner. the whole objective of writing 10 positive points is to deepen your consciousness towards looking positive changes happening inside and outside of you. This trains your subconscious mind consciously to think, believe and live positively.
NAMASTE!!🙏
