Teenage, adolescence and youth are phases that are perhaps the most beautiful in any individual's life. Yet, for many, this becomes a period of turbulence, turmoil, confusions and many more such feelings. It does not necessarily have to be so. There is no Correct Approach. It has to be a Personal Approach. Each one has to find his or her own way. We are individuals, born with the right to think and act freely. Yet there are views of Others, which many a time, try and push us in Their paths. Sort of Cloning us as per them. Or do We Prefer to be cloned due to our own sense of security? Ashish Mehta's book for the youth is not only for the youth, but also for the parents. Parents who feel strongly about their own values and experiences; and wish to hand them over to their children. No doubt, they wish to do so out of love, yet are they mentally fluid enough to understand the young minds? Are their well-meaning intentions, misinterpreted and create friction with their sons and daughters? Young people of this age have concerns and worries. They are gathering their own personal experiences every single moment. Many are sweet, yet, too many are bitter. Human minds and hearts have as many concerns as to fill an encyclopedia, yet a humble take on just a few, is discussed upon in this book. Concerns such as Self Identity; Self Worth; Social acceptance; Peer pressure; Friendships; Challenging accepted beliefs; Networking; Depressions; Emotional turbulence; Mood swings; Temper tantrums; Suicidal tendencies; Generation gap; Independence; Career decisions and Life goals; Family related issues; Pressure to choose sides; Rights and responsibilities; Fighting parents; Study tips and a host of other concerns. To be non-sermonizing about these concerns, yet showing the road to freedom of thought is what this book works upon. And such thoughts with clarity and discernment come only when the mind is still. The 'Principles of Manifesting Thoughts' as promulgated by the author, along with the Meditation on Gold; will help the reader to walk his personal path to free and discerning thinking.
About the Author: The human psyche, per se, is very fickle in nature. The biggest hurdles people face in their lives, is the making of their own thinking. One may call it their attitude towards life, or call it circumstances. The fact remains that they live mediocre lives. Attitudes, circumstances, mediocrity are the by-product of one's own thoughts. Yet, people don't wish to acknowledge their responsibility towards their thoughts and their circumstances. Responsible living is a product of responsible thinking. Responsible thinking is a way of life. Our thoughts, not only affect us, they affect our near and dear ones as well as our society. The vision of Ashish is to reach out to as many people in the world and make them look inwards and realize this responsibility - the responsibility of proper thinking. There is a phrase - 'if wishes were horses, beggars would ride them'. Aptly true. Just wishing and imagining do not attract experiences or create magic. To manifest and materialize visions, one needs to understand the science behind manifesting. Ashish MehtaBacked with 15 years of research, Ashish brings forth the 'Principles of Manifesting Thoughts' - intertwining spiritual and metaphysical laws of life; which are simple to understand, yet extremely deep in their bearing. These Principles guide and make people take responsibility towards their own thoughts and actions, in every sphere of life, to ensure proper and responsible living. They help in opening up the vision of seeing things as they are from all angles. They teach discernment. Ashish takes this a step further, by amalgamating the 'Principles of Manifesting Thoughts' to various professional activities of life. He writes on various topics about life situations as well as corporate and professional life factors, creating a synergy and a common platform, for permanent concretizing in thoughts and therefore beautiful lives. Once the individual's personal wavelength is in tandem with these Principles, he or she begins to not only live realized and meaningful personal lives, he or she begins to manifest the same in their professions as well. That is real empowerment and responsible living, which Ashish wishes to concretize in as many people as possible. It is with this vision in mind that Ashish wishes this knowledge to reach across the globe, along with his commitment to be there for guidance to his readers as well as students of his workshops, throughout life.
