In Indonesia, people greet you saying, ‘Om Swasti Astu’. This is an ancient Sanskrit term, which means, “May you enjoy Heaven, being established in yourself.” Being established in your Self is indeed the real Heaven. It is not just physical health, but also mental, emotional and spiritual wellbeing.
Today, the World Health Organization has recognized the role of spirituality. Spirituality brings you a sense of satisfaction, wellness, connectivity, and confidence in whatever you do.
Beauty has several dimensions – one is external beauty and one is internal beauty. Inner beauty reflects on the outer beauty. You look at children in any part of the world, there is subtle beauty inside them, and their very spirit exudes beauty. That beauty indicates the state of mind. The state of one’s mind corresponds to the texture of the skin as well.
The skin of a baby is very different and its mind is also very different. The mind and skin are connected. In the ‘Vigyan Bhairav’, there is a meditation where you feel that underneath the skin, everything is hollow and empty. When you take your attention beneath your skin, you will find the spirit being so alive. This is a technique, taking the attention to the Self and discovering the inner beauty.
