"To
really know someone
is to have loved
and hated him
in turn."

Relationships
Advice will have
a universal application
and address itself
to all individuals
(mankind). It
will transcend
the socio-cultural
values of any
particular nation.
However, psychotherapy
practiced in India
recognizes the
concepts of Dharma,
Karma, Maya, and
higher levels
of conciousness
as explained in
the Hindu Scriptural
texts, in the
formation of personality.

About
relationships
In the East, when
we bring our hands
together in a
gesture of greeting
and respect (Namaste),
it reminds us
that the individual
soul meets the
Cosmic Soul and
we acknowledge
the Reality "Thou
are That". We
bring our hands
together because
it symbolizes
the place where
these two meet.
There is another
reason why we
bring our hands
together. The
gesture also reminds
us that the internal
and external worlds
must be brought
into balance in
order to make
life successful
and to fulfill
the purpose of
life. For a detailed
explanation of
the meaning of
Namaste, click

"The most
important
factor in
arriving at
the desired
results is
one's own
determination,
patience and
perseverance."

Relationships
are absolutely
essential, like
food is for the
body. Life and
relationships
are closely linked.
To live in the
world, no matter
in what capacity,
relationships
and communication
is necessary.
It is important
to understand
the relationship
with yourself.
If you do not
know yourself
you can never
know or understand
others - begin
with yourself.
Do not worry about
the approval of
others and what
they think of
you. What is significant
is what you think
of yourself.
"Sometimes there's a person in a room full of people who sustains more presence
than anyone else. This has little or nothing to do with what he or she says or his or her reputation
or looks. What causes this is the fact that the person is not performing for anyone else and is most
himself or herself."

Positive
relationships
We should always
remain positive
and optimistic
in our thoughts,
words and actions.
Our motto should
be joy, harmony
and peace, not
discord. Positive
relationships
lead to positive
self image and
self worth. There
is openness to
new experiences
and situations,
which help in
emotional growth
and enable a person
to deal with life
more effectively.
Love in relationships
can be expressed
on the physical,
mental and spiritual
levels. When it
goes down to the
soul level it
goes really deep
and there is no
disturbance and
separation. When
two individuals
relate at the
soul level they
are known as soul
mates.
Individuals have
to learn to manage
their relationships
with love, understanding,
sharing, awareness
and acceptance.
The quality of
relationships
we have with people
impacts our sense
of personal well-being
and adds meaning
to our lives.
