Thoughts and feelings that persist over time harden into an attitude. If you live with an attitude long enough, it becomes second nature-a mindset. The wrong mindset could lead you off the path of contentment, joy, enlightenment. The right one will point you to the road to success, to fulfilment and towards an extraordinary life.
Blending science with Vedic scriptures, and logic with spiritual insight, Swami Mukundananda unravels the secrets of the 7 mindsets-seven techniques of training the mind and intellect and unlocking the immense potential within. An alumnus of IIT and IIM, Swamiji brings his decades-long mastery of Vedic scriptures to these powerful yet simple techniques for mind management and life transformation.
Swami Mukundananda is a world-renowned spiritual teacher from India, an international authority on mind management, and a bestselling author. He earned his degrees from the prestigious IIT-D and IIM-C, but chose to enter monkhood, renouncing a promising corporate career. He studied the Vedic scriptures at the feet of Jagadguru Kripaluji Maharaj. For almost four decades now, he has been sharing his vast knowledge through his books, lectures, and life transformation programs.
Everyday Swamiji meets hundreds, and even thousands, of people from all walks of life. His steadfast positivity exudes hope, clarity and sense of purpose to those who connect with him. He has deeply affected the lives of millions of people who have been drawn by his profound integrity, charismatic personality and passion to serve. Despite his busy schedule, those who encounter him experience his genuinely caring and compassionate personality and feel deeply touched by him.
Swamiji's lectures are humorous, his arguments are logical and well laid-out, and most of all, his advice is practical. His lectures on social media platforms are loved and followed by millions. Swamiji divides his time between India and the US.
That one thing is not money, for we find so many wealthy people who are unproductive, unhealthy and miserable. It is not powerful connections either, because even children of well-connected people sometimes end up as irresponsible derelicts or wayward vagrants. Nor is it high IQ, for many intellectuals are both emotionally fragile and socially obtuse. All these assets and qualities can undoubtedly prove helpful for success, but without that one essential ingredient, it cannot be guaranteed.
The biggest key to accomplishment, happiness and fulfilment is mastery over our emotions. As the saying goes, 'Attitude leads to altitude.' Those who are expert in marshalling their sentiments are catapulted to success in their field of work, despite overwhelming odds. Since they possess the ability to choose their thoughts, they fill themselves with faith and inspiration and apply themselves to their tasks with joy. They are resilient and determined, even while facing enormous challenges. Thus, they rise head and shoulders above their brethren, with astonishing accomplishments and heroic qualities of head and heart. Some may say these people just got lucky, but it was really their superior attitude in all situations that made all the difference.
In contrast, there are people who keep getting entangled in the cobwebs of their thoughts. They waste precious time and energy revisiting sentiments of anxiety, gloom and resentment. Such negative feelings rob them of health, make them unpopular among friends and ineffective at work. Consequently, their own mind becomes their worst enemy. Often, they do not even realise that their gloomy thoughts are the primary cause of their frustrations. And when they do become aware of their flawed thinking, they do not know how to subdue the despair that keeps cropping up in their mind. They may claim that Lady Luck never shone upon them, but, in reality, it was their ineptness at managing their emotions that tripped them on the journey of life.
