In my first office job, I was stressing out and overworking after office hours, worrying about results. But reading the Bhagavad Gita, it changed my life completely. I started to not care too much about work or life happenings anymore, it gave me the mindset, "Do your best, and God will do the rest." After all not everything is in our hands. From there on, I rather became more productive and more chill, people sometimes may think I am not taking it serious, but I don't care, it's better to be chill than stressed out. HariBol

You don't even have to do your best. Life is pre written (every second of it) and you can't change it. At least that's what I believe in now. I always believed in destiny in the past as well🙂 Let me give you my life story as an example - I am 34. Born & raised in India and living in the US since 2006. I got married to love of my life in 2012 Bought 2.5 million dollar home in 2015 Blessed with a daughter in 2017 Life was great 🙂 2020 - we divorced out of nowhere - a few verbal arguments here and there for a couple weeks and ex wife wanted divorce. I didn't want divorce. During the same time, I lost my job where I worked for 6 years without any issues. I got another job within weeks because of my experience. Again no big deal. Had to sell our home because of divorce. Now, I am renting a one bedroom apartment. I can easily buy a fancy new house, but I have 0 motivation now. The worst of all - I get to see my daughter only 50% of the times. She would never see her mom-dad together. I also always wanted a big family - 3-4 kids. Now, I don't care about getting married again. I have decided to never remarry (or how I like to say it - it's part of my destiny)🙂 Moral of the story is - Don't try to change anything. Let life happen to you. You can't change your destiny. If you are meant to be jobless, you'll be jobless. If you meant to be homeless, you'll be homeless. If you meant to be a billionaire, you'll be billionaire and all of that is pre written and that is too way before you were born 🙂

​@@rrboss3721 Sorry to hear what happened and I am happy you are moving ahead. But our life destiny doesnt decide everything in our life it is our actions. Destiny controls major events birth, death, midlife crisis. But we can still make it or break it. The choice is ours. Even i went through bad divorce. I was loosing myself and on verge of self destruction when I discovered spirituality. It really helped calm my mind, accept the outcomes of my actions. Astrologer told I will be settling in abroad. I decided not to. We can change our life for good if you focus on positive side and for bad if we keep cribbing anout what happened, gets demotivated. I have seen people destroy their own lives because of love failures. It is because of their own choices not destiny. Like the first comment do your best, God will take care of rest. Also one more thing I learnt ups and downs are to make us a better person. Learn karmic lessons. But whether we become or not or will do the same mistakes again is up to us.

I agree 100 percent to NIKSEN. .. Have been following this art from a very young age. My parents called me lazy, my friends said that I am a victim of procrastination. Though I could not explain the benefit of lazy days to others, deep inside l felt totally rejuvenated after NIKSEN time. Technology has its benefits but nothing can soothe our minds and boost up our health like nature does.

Everyone around me are cursing me. They don't understand me but I I completely believe in this "Art of doing Nothing" ( I do what I do and I do it at my own pace) it's not like I don't do anything but my instincts are my dictators and I listen to them.

I always enjoy being Niksen. Doing nothing is very easy but the problem here is people have a tendency to overthink about their unhappy past events and which will make them more depressed that’s why everyone wants to be engaged.Lots of people are going through difficult and unfortunate personal situations while they are being highly successful at work. People try to manage their personal stress due to family problems with high productivity at work. Usually men does that.

That is what I like with Palki Sharma. She is holistic in approach to knowledge and life! Continue to inform and teach, madam! God bless you!

This, along with minimalism if taken on naturally would certainly help the individual and the world in a wholistic way. We call this here in India, the Dharmic way of living.

Palki, i call it puzzling. Turning rainy day activities into a relaxing pre-bedtime routine, I engage in jigsaw puzzles featuring family and friends. Surprising them with these meaningful images framed as puzzles brings joy, accompanied by a flash drive filled with photos and a video capturing the puzzle's assembly. A brief story of the process and a silver proof coin matching their astrological sign adds a personal touch to this heartfelt gift. That's my Niksen.

I am a professor in this art and now i am feeling proud... thanks palki for your kind words 😊

This was the same I was thinking to myself, but never knew such concept called Niksen. Thanks for upbringing the important topic Palki!!

In the modern world, nealry all "productivity" actually involves coercive participation in destructive activity in some way, including limiting our own or other's freedom. Therefore, being "inactive" is less stressful and a step into the direction of true creativity .

That is what I am doing after retirement. Writing fiction (my mind and hands remain active), watching the waves caressing the beach (Niksen), watching the birds playing in my garden, flowers swaying in the wind (again Niksen)... life is beautiful.

Apparently, I have been practicing niksen for quite some time now. When asked what I do, I say, "As little as possible!". I put all or most of my energy into my relationship with my wife. Doing/giving for my wife energizes me always.

In Bengali,we call it lyad khawa/ladkhor. I just ❤it.Its refreshing & sort of relieving 😊😊 Everyone should do it😜

Men have a nothing box we can put our brains in and think of literally nothing ( its called a football game or fishing or going for a drive) we have been blessed with this ability and should use it often

Several years ago came across a book by Maharaj Nisargadatta "The Experience of Nothingness" edited by Robert Powell. It teaches to meditate on Nothing. No existence, no World and no Universe. It is deep sleep in the Awakening state. It works wonders in stress relief ❤

Our corporate world should recognize this n incorporate it by providing ‘Away from work leave ‘ .

Same thing is mentioned in Bhagavat Geetha, Its called Ni- Karma. The one who does karma in Ni-Karma( In action) and does in-action( Ni-Karma) in Karma ( Action) is a Enlighten human.

It's just gimmick we want to be rich to be happy, it's all in our minds. We just need a job to support our family, everything will be okay in it's way.

Meditation also involves active involvement of mind

I can easily do this when i start thinking "what is life and why? "😂

It’s very much like mindfulness, you are free from past and future and fully immersed in the moment.

Doing nothing means not just sit alone on a place and thinking all other stuff but doing nothing means sit alone and focusing on your self aware about your thoughts which popups in your mind in a every minute or second just look and try to balance your thoughts and checking what type of thoughts your mind received from this unuverse and environment. It's not as simple as feel but anyone can be do it better than others if he practice consistently in a right guidence.

This concept is there very much for a long time in Tamil spiritual culture. It is called ‘Summa iru’ which means ‘Just be’. Refer to Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharishi’s teachings or Arunagirinadhar’s teachings. As usual, many like it only when it is marketed by westerners (e.g. Yoga).

Finally something I'm number 1 at....😌

Way ahead of you. I am a zen master at doing nothing!

Palki, try this,, u work tooo muchh

Ultimately people want to follow spiritual practices like meditation sit alone and doing nothing but focus on your self(self recognization).

Meditation is just that, if one has understood the true meaning of it. The aim of meditation is to slow down the thoughts and detach from the so called productive and busy life.

Niksen is definitely better than Nixon.

It requires a measure of intellectual development or 'enlightenment' & contentment... even to be able to think that we are not in control of anything, so drastically toning down our desires, sometimes even apathy towards life & society in general is required to.... truly relax. 1. In any case, no one is going live hale & healthy for 150 years 2. No one requires a space more than 7 feet to take rest or sleep in a safe, comfortable house ( its not necessary that it should be big ) 3. No one requires more than a MaximuM of three meals a day. This is irrespective of the quantum of money one possesses And money cannot give you spiritual knowledge, enlightenment or resultant contentment.... (Even a wife & children are luxuries of life, We should be able to live With Luxuries or even Without Them) Both should be okay.... So why chase money more than it's necessary ( and invite unnecessary mental stress ) We should try to think beyond Maayaa The Dutch are genius 😊😄😂

Universities have always taught the art of doing nothing, that is their specialty, they teach their students how to get the working classes to do all of the work, while the graduates just watch and take notes.

Thank you Madam, 35 years ago I attended a program called the Art of Non Doing conducted by one a Shri Rishi Prabhakar who had an organisation called Sidha Samadhi Yoga. He very much espoused the same thing. Another of the self realisation-assessment of our mundane selves was also successfully brought forth by Mr Werner Erhardt in a program 'EST" For many of people like me who went to a convent (English medium school) we are now finding our path by reading the Upanishads rather late in our September years. It is all there ...Solutions to the problems we face ..

It’s absolutely crazy about how we transformed from “Human beings” to “Human doings”

I am master at it. After completing my Vedic training I get to know the true potential of laying still.

The mind can never not think. Only the flow of thoughts need to be directed towards positive.

Bold and confident journalist.

Your video deserves all the recognition it can get. Thank you for sharing your talent!

Beautiful message, need of the day

It’s very first teaching of meditation- witnessing / observing ..

The concept of the "art of doing nothing" does have its roots in various Eastern philosophies, including Indian traditions. In Indian philosophy and spiritual practices such as yoga and meditation, there is a recognition of the importance of stillness, quieting the mind, and being present in the moment. This idea aligns with the concept of niksen and Osho's teachings on mindfulness and meditation. In these traditions, the practice of doing nothing isn't about laziness or inactivity but about cultivating a state of awareness, inner peace, and relaxation. So, while niksen may be a Dutch term, the underlying concept of embracing idleness and stillness has parallels in Indian philosophy and spiritual practices

MADAM, THE VERY DEFINITION OF MEDITATION IS - THE ART OF DOING NOTHING. THE ART OF BEING. I appreciate, definitely that the world is taking heed of RELAXATION & NOTHINGNESS. MODERATION MINDSET. Keep going....

Interesting ! I start my day with few minutes of doing nothing 😊. I started doing it about a year ago. Didn’t know this concept. But, I can tell you, I feel very relaxed the entire day, most of the days !!

Excellent message. Thank you.

This what all types of meditation says 😊... someone has rightly said "Medidation is art being within and science of doing nothing" ❤

Wonderful presentation and thanks to information on Niksen. Doing nothing makes one more productive. Butl in current competitive job market, its better to take break with a purpose

Really apologies for this inappropriate behavior but the way palki narrates… despite the magnitude of despair d sadness she has my heart❤️‍🔥 Learning everyday from her

Yes, for a person overloaded with official work, personal responsibilities or stress, there should be a thing called the art of doing nothing. Few months ago I realised this.

Doing nothing but observing everythimg makes mind more fresh

I think this doing nothing way of leading life when our mind and body demand is Best rejuvenator of our life. It needs lots of patience. It is the skill master. I think what we generally feel like boredom, like can't keep quiet for a few moments, or like saying that "I want to stay doing something till end of life" but objectively the person is not healthy or not with energy. Doing nothing state of leading life for some time will remove Staleness in one's life. I think this is in our Mind. Cannot stop doing something or cannot do something or not initiation to be active = Inertia of Motion or Inertia of Rest in our minds.

I did this in 2020 to 22. Best time of my entire life.

Love to palki mam and her team for relevant topics covered by them

Hi dear Unknowingly I am doing this since many years , m happy , thanks dear ❤️ , ya one thing , Palki u r beauty plus witt ❤

Surprising to see such views from Indian journalists !!! But doing nothing is very hard as we are so much conditioned from our childhood to do multiple things so that you can better life later. This conditioning is so strong that we continue to be busy throughout our life. And then we give meaning to this by saying "empty mind is the devil's mind".

This is wonderful! ❤
