☆ Laughter Graduation Ceremony ☆

Laughter Yoga professionals receive their certifications from the Laughter Yoga University in a glittering function on completion of the course.

Radhika Bisht and Jagat Singh Bisht, Founders: LifeSkills, completed their CERTIFIED LAUGHTER YOGA TEACHER training in October 2010 at the School of Ancient Wisdom in Bengaluru. They served as laughter professors at the Laughter Yoga University during the year 2015 and were honoured as LAUGHTER YOGA MASTER TRAINERS by Madhuri Kataria and Dr Madan Kataria, founders of Laughter Yoga, in July 2015.

Laughter Yoga is a unique concept where anyone can laugh for no reason without relying on humour, jokes or comedy. The concept is based on a scientific fact that the body cannot differentiate between real and fake laughter if done with willingness. One gets the same physiological and psychological benefits.

Dr Madan Kataria, a medical doctor, founded the first Laughter Club with just five members in Mumbai in the year 1995. Today there are thousands of laughter clubs all over the world where laughter is initiated as an exercise in a group but with eye contact and childlike playfulness, it soon turns into real and contagious laughter.

It is called Laughter Yoga because it combines laughter exercises with yoga breathing. This brings more oxygen to the body and the brain which makes one feel more energetic and healthy.

When we laugh, our body generates feel good hormones called endorphins which improve our mood and general outlook. During laughter exercises, all the stale air inside the lungs is expelled and our system gets more oxygen which enhances the immune system. In the long run, the inner spirit of laughter helps you build more caring and sharing social relationships, and laugh even when the going in not good.

Laughter Yoga University conducts trainings to certify laughter yoga professionals. The participants flock from all over the world for the training. After completing the training, the participants are awarded certificates in a ceremony at the end of the programme. The participants carry home everlasting sweet memories of the golden moments of glory and joy.

LAUGHTER YOGA GRADUATION CEREMONY IS DAZZLING!

☆ BUDDHA: The Four Noble Truths & The Noble Eightfold Path ☆

Video Link : BUDDHA: The Four Noble Truths & The Noble Eightfold Path 

The essence of the Buddha’s teaching can be summed up in two principles: the Four Noble Truths and the Noble Eightfold Path.

The first covers the side of doctrine, and the primary response it elicits is understanding; the second covers the side of discipline, in the broadest sense of that word, and the primary response it calls for is practice.

Two extremes that ought not to be cultivated by one who has gone forth: devotion to pursuit of pleasure in sensual desires, which is low, coarse, vulgar, ignoble and harmful; and devotion to self-mortification, which is painful, ignoble and harmful.

The Middle Way:
Avoid the two extremes – devotion to pursuit of pleasure in sensual desires and devotion to self-mortification. Follow the Noble Eightfold Path.

The middle way – Noble Eightfold Path – discovered by the Perfect One gives vision, gives knowledge, and leads to peace, to direct knowledge, to enlightenment, to Nibbana.

Noble Eightfold Path:
Right View, Right Intention, Right Speech, Right Action, Right Livelihood, Right Effort, Right Mindfulness, and Right Concentration.

The Four Noble Truths:
Noble Truth of Suffering, Noble Truth of the Origin of Suffering, Noble Truth of the Cessation of Suffering, and Noble Truth of the Way Leading to the Cessation of Suffering.

Noble Truth of Suffering:
Birth is suffering, ageing is suffering, sickness is suffering, death is suffering, sorrow and lamentation, pain, grief and despair are suffering, association with the loathed is suffering, dissociation from the loved is suffering, not to get what one wants is suffering – in short, the five aggregates affected by clinging are suffering.

Noble Truth of the Origin of Suffering:
It is craving, which produces renewal of being, is accompanied by relish and lust, relishing this and that; in other words, craving for sensual desires, craving for being, craving for non-being.

Noble Truth of the Cessation of Suffering:
It is the remainderless fading and ceasing, the giving up, relinquishing, letting go and rejecting of craving.

Noble Truth of the Way Leading to the Cessation of Suffering:
It is the Noble Eightfold Path, that is to say, right view, right intention, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, and right concentration.

Right View:
It is knowledge of suffering, of the origin of suffering, of the cessation of suffering, and of the way leading to the cessation of suffering.

Right Intention:
It is the intention of renunciation, the intention of non-ill will, and the intention of non-cruelty.

Right Speech:
Abstention from lying, slander, abuse, and gossip.

Right Action:
Abstention from killing living beings, stealing, and misconduct in sexual desires.

Right Livelihood:
A noble disciple abandons wrong livelihood and gets his living by right livelihood.

Right Effort:
A bhikkhu awakens desire for the non-arising of unarisen evil unwholesome states, for the abandoning of arisen evil unwholesome states, for the arising of unarisen wholesome states, for the continuance, non-corruption, strengthening, maintenance in being, and perfecting, of arisen wholesome states; for which he makes efforts, arouses energy, exerts his mind, and endeavours.

Right Mindfulness:
A bhikkhu abides contemplating the body as a body, feelings as feelings, consciousness as consciousness, mental objects as mental objects; ardent, fully aware and mindful, having put away covetousness and grief for the world.

Right Concentration:
Quite secluded from sensual desires, secluded from unwholesome states, a bhikkhu enters upon and abides in the first meditation, which is accompanied by thinking and exploring, with happiness and pleasure born of seclusion.

☆ What determines HAPPINESS? ☆

Video Link : HAPPINESS ACTIVITY

HAPPINESS ACTIVITY
HAVE A BEAUTIFUL DAY!

Positive Emotion is one of the five elements of happiness and well-being. If we can somehow increase the level of positive emotion, we can be happier.

Dr Martin Seligman, known as the father of positive psychology, describes a simple happiness activity ‘Have a Beautiful Day’ in his book ‘Authentic Happiness’ for increasing positive emotion in the present:
“Set aside a free day this month to indulge in your favourite pleasures.
“Pamper yourself.
“Design, in writing, what you will do from hour to hour.”
Be mindful and savour every moment of the beautiful day.
Do not let the bustle of life interfere and carry out the plan.

CAN YOU MAKE YOURSELF LASTINGLY HAPPIER?

This video provides you answers to these questions based on POSITIVE PSYCHOLOGY – the modern Science of Happiness.

According to Positive Psychologists, the enduring level of happiness that you experience is determined by three factors: your biological set point, the conditions of your life, and the voluntary activities you do.

YES!! You can make yourself lastingly happier by practicing Happiness Activities that have been proven to work by Positive Psychologists.

It is worth striving to get the right relationships between yourself and others, between yourself and your work, and between yourself and something larger than yourself. If you get these relationships right, a sense of purpose and meaning will emerge.

– जगत सिंह बिष्ट

The Five Elements of Well-Being:

Happiness is a thing and well-being is a construct. The five elements of well-being are positive emotion, engagement, relationships, meaning, and accomplishment.

Positive Emotion: Positive Emotion includes the feelings of joy, excitement, contentment, hope and warmth. There may be positive emotions relating to the past, present or future.

Engagement: Engagement denotes deep involvement in a task or activity. One does not experience the passing of time. One experiences flow in sports, music and singing but one may also experience it in work, reading a book or in a good conversation.

Relationships: We feel happy when we are among family and friends. The quality and depth of relationships in one’s life make it rich.

Meaning: It’s connecting to something larger than life.

Accomplishment: One strives for achievements in life as a source of happiness.

Each of these elements contributes to well-being. The good news is that each one of the above may be cultivated and developed to enhance level of well-being.
