What is a Mantra

Sanskrit believed mantras to have psychological and spiritual powers.

Mantra is a structured formula of thought. 

Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage. 

Everything in this universe has been created to become a teacher. 

Yogi Bhajan

Without the guidance, there can be no self-determination. Without self-determination, there can be no achievement.


Life is a gift but we forget it. 

The mind becomes a monster when it becomes your master. The mind is an angel when it is your servant.

Meditation is a process.

The meditative mind is a purely beautiful state of living.

What is a Guru

You have a guru to experience the soul. 

It is the spirit of guidance that allows you to reach your destiny and become great.

The Guru should take away your doubt and darkness. He should rekindle your spirit, and redirect you towards your goal. He should remind you what reality is, and keep you going toward that reality. 

He should remind you of your energy.

This is the job of the Guru, one who has the confirmed habit to speak the infinite truth in all circumstances. 

It will freak you out, but it will keep you on the path of righteousness.

The Guru is a guide that can take you from the darkness into the light. The Guru is an ocean where you can totally merge yourself and come out washed and clean. The Guru is a store of technical know-how where you can go and get taken care of so that you are fit again to take up the responsibility of this planet. 

The Guru is the secret chamber of your inner self where you can confide your greatest secrets and be guided in the light of righteousness.

Those who qualify according to these criteria are truly the blessed ones who have come to serve humanity and carry us through the times.a

Ultimate Health

Ultimate Health is a complete physical, mental, social, spiritual and financial well-being while engaging in fulfilling activities in life. It's also a quality of life. 

Mental health includes our emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It affects how we think, feel, and act. It also helps determine how we handle stress, relate to others, and make choices. Mental health is important at every stage of life, from childhood and adolescence through adulthood.

Good living conditions (e.g., housing, employment and health care) are fundamental to well-being. 

How is well-being defined?

• Physical well-being.

• Economic well-being.

• Social well-being.

• Development and activity.

• Emotional well-being.

• Psychological well-being.

• Life satisfaction.

• Domain specific satisfaction.

• Engaging activities and work.

Why is well-being useful for public health?

• Well-being integrates mental health (mind) and physical health (body) resulting in more holistic approaches to disease prevention and health promotion.6

• Well-being is a valid population outcome measure beyond morbidity, mortality, and economic status that tells us how people perceive their life is going from their own perspective.

• Self-perceived health.

• Longevity.

• Healthy behaviors.

• Mental and physical illness.

• Social connectedness.

• Productivity.

• Factors in the physical and social environment.

• Measuring, tracking and promoting well-being can be useful for multiple stakeholders involved in disease prevention and health promotion.

There is no consensus around a single definition of well-being, but there is general agreement that at a minimum, well-being includes the presence of positive emotions and moods (e.g., contentment, happiness), the absence of negative emotions (e.g., depression, anxiety), satisfaction with life, fulfillment and positive functioning. In simple terms, well-being can be described as judging life positively and feeling good.36, 37 For public health purposes, physical well-being (e.g., feeling very healthy and full of energy) is also viewed as critical to overall well-being. Researchers from different disciplines have examined different aspects of well-being that include the following

I don't want to be the next Mark Spitz. I want to be the first Michael Phelps.

• I think that everything is possible as long as you put your mind to it and you put the work and time into it. I think your mind really controls everything.

• If you want to be the best, you have to do things that other people aren't willing to do.

• I won't predict anything historic but nothing is impossible. 

• I think goals should never be easy, they should force you to work, even if they are uncomfortable at the time.

• I want to test my maximum and see how much I can do.”

• I want to be able to look back and say, ‘I’ve done everything I can, and I was successful.’ I don’t want to look back and say I should have done this or that.

• I found something I love… And never gave up.

• Things won’t go perfect. It’s all about how you adapt from those things and learn from mistakes.

• So many people along the way, whatever it is you aspire to do, will tell you it can’t be done. But all it takes is imagination. You dream. You plan. You reach.

• The more you dream the more you achieve.

• I like to just think of myself as a normal person who just has a passion, has a goal and a dream and goes out and does it. And that’s really how I’ve always lived my life.

• I know it won’t be eight medals again. If you want to compare me to that, that’s your decision, not mine. I’m going out there to try to accomplish the things that I have in my mind and in my heart.
• I knew I wasn't a failure in any way. It doesn't matter if you fall short; it's never a failure to go after your goals with everything you got.
