Thoughts, Feelings, Perceptions — Wave or Particle?
By Monica Gulati - Jul 15, 2022
Some of us may be aware of the wave-particle duality through quantum physics. A sub-atomic particle’s behaviour is rather unpredictable. It can at times behave like a wave, less solid, while at times it can behave like a particle, hence a bit more solid. How it will behave, one cannot predict. Researchers have so far studied that whether it will behave like a particle or wave is influenced very much by who’s looking at them, who’s observing. The same appears quite true at the level of our thoughts, feelings, emotions, sense-perceptions. Whether they appear heavy, sole reality, or solid, depends on who’s looking? If the egoistic sense of self, the separate self is looking, it looks at them as – my life, my respect, my story, my roles. If we take a stance knowingly at a deeper level of consciousness, knowing ourselves as consciousness and looking at these surface movements, they appear more surreal, like a dream, fleeting, ever transient, and more like a wave passing by. The article explores implications of this fact for our human journey.

Reflections on vital education
By Monika Nanda - Jul 15, 2022
The vital is a crucial aspect of the being and usually governs all our actions, which in turn shape our character and thus, our destiny. Strengthening the vital should be an important aspect of a child’s education. Being caught up in the development of the mental faculty, this aspect of vital education has not traditionally been incorporated in children’s education. This article tries to bring to the forefront some of the practical ways in which we can work on the vital in children. It is an attempt to help parents and caregivers understand the vital in a simpler way.
