Dipak Bhadra delivers a short YouTube reflection marking the birth anniversaries of Mahatma Gandhi and Lal Bahadur Shastri, summarizing Gandhi’s core values (freedom, truth, non‑violence, faith) and Shastri’s simplicity and slogan "Jai Jawan, Jai Kisan." He contrasts those values with current global trends (rising conflict, anxiety, and suppression of truth), presents a simple mind-model linking conscious values → subconscious emotions → bodily action, and urges listeners to choose faith and right thinking, lead their own lives, and practice constructive leadership.

Friends, good evening from Dubai and good morning, good afternoon. Whichever part of the world you are in today, seeing my screen you will understand that you can say sharing wisdom of these two great legends. And today is a special day. This side is Mahatma Gandhiji who was known as father of nation for India. And Lalbardu Sastry who was our second prime minister of India. And today is their birth anniversary. So I thought why not to share their wisdom. That allowed me to learn what was their wisdom. So you know Mahatma Gandhi Ji. Now before India became free in 1947, Britishers were ruling on India. And what principles, what values Mahatma Gandhiji was following is freedom. When Britishers compromise, freedom of Indians. He was the leader, he led the team. Even though irrespective of. There were no resources, there were no money, there were no weapons, there were no soldiers. But he was leading entire nation and he was following you can say support of truth and freedom and non violence. These three principles which he was following and he's known now entire world. He's known that even in this book which I regularly read Think and grow rich author Napoleon Hill mentioned about Mahatma Gandhiji that even Britishers he has made them to leave India. They were powerful people. But he didn't allow, he was having faith. Okay. Fourth value was faith. So it was a freedom which was driving him. It was truth, it was non violence and it was faith. So these four values which I learned from Mahatma Gandhi Ji and he was determined, he had a faith. Now comes to Lalbardu Shastri Ji. He was known for simplicity. He had given a slogan to India. Jai Jawan, Jai Kishan. So he says your soldiers and your farmers, your soldiers will protect your borders. They will help you to maintain your integrity, your security. And and the farmers which will help you to build prosperity. And these two legendaries, they are having birth anniversary today. So world is celebrating. I thought why not to share their wisdom. Now come back to what is happening these days. Now you can see whatever these people they taught, they shared their wisdom. Exactly opposite is happening presently in the world. Now if you have seen news or read news, a lot of things are happening in the world. People are all the leaders are talking something differently. That world is going into maybe third world war. Non violence is totally on backseat. Truth is totally on backseat. People everybody wants to prove that they are right. They are not concerned about what is right. It say like see this book says think and grow rich. Now what if I say that people who are leading the world they don't think if they are thinking they will not do what they are doing today. The things are happening. I am not talking any specific. But you know what I am talking about. It's not good for the world. It's not good for the people. It's not good for the lives. But still it is happening. Now what you can do, you and me, we cannot change these things which are happening. Correct. True. It's like there are leaders who are involved in these who are influencing this. But what if I say that what you can do, you can use your mind. So this is the model of mind. Now what if I give example of say Mahatma Gandhiji. He was having freedom was driving him. He wanted India to be free. He didn't allow Britishers to compromise freedom of Indians. And then he was having a faith and then he was having courage to take action. So freedom is a value which is with conscious mind. Faith which is emotions which is subconscious mind and action. Courage to take action is body. So if you see this now learning this model helped me to connect many dots. See life is all about connecting dots. Many times if one imagine a piece of puzzle, if one piece is not in place, do you agree that puzzle is incomplete? Same thing with our mind. If mind and body, if one piece is not aligned, if there is no clarity then there is a confusion. The confusion will bring fear, frustration, anger, jealousy, guilt, resentment, disappointment. That's what is happening in the world. There is uncertainty. People don't know what is going to happen. Correct. And then what is happening. People are only using their senses. What is happening around them. See, hear, smell, taste and touch. This is what is happening. And that takes control of their thoughts. So thoughts are of worry and doubt. What turns it into emotions? Fear, frustration, anger. Everybody is angry on each other. Jealousy, guilt, resentment. And that is reflected as anxiety. World is going through anxiety. People don't know what will happen. And particularly those countries, those cities, those places, citizen of those, they don't know what is going to happen in next moment. Do you agree that that brings anxiety and anxiety? Nobody wants to express. People suppress. Suppression turns into depression. That turns into disease. This is one side of alignment. When you are allowing negative thoughts to take control of your mind. Now you and me, as I told, we can't control what is happening but we can control our thoughts. Now what you need to take control of your thoughts? You need a reason, you need a goal. What is driving you? Is fear driving you? Or faith is driving you? Is freedom is driving you or security is driving you? Ask yourself. Unless we don't ask we will not get answer now. I learned all these things from my mentors. I learned even when I was preparing for this post. I learned from these two legendaries that Lal Baadhu Shastri. He was known for simplicity. He was known for integrity. He was known for his leadership. All those things when we follow them, we can become a good leader. World needs good leaders. World needs teachers who really teach people how to think, how to feel, how to act. Not the way things are happening in the world. You should know what is happening around you. But don't allow what is. Don't allow those things to take control of your thoughts. Don't waste too much time on the things which are not in your control. Now I don't say who is right but I say what is right. When you think right, when you feel right and when you act right, everything falls into alignment and world. Everybody can make world in a better place. Particularly leaders. Leaders of country, leaders of organization. But you know that you can be leader of your life. If you are not leading your life in the right direction, nobody will else will lead you. Otherwise see you have to be a leader at the same time of follower. So my mentor Bob Proctor used to say to become an efficient leader you have to become an effective follower. You need to follow in sometimes. You have to lead sometimes. But you have to lead what is right. Not something which people do without thinking. See, there is something called faith and something called blind faith. It is very thin line to decide whether it is a faith or it is a blind faith. Whom you are following. Who are your role models. You can be a role model of yourself. Learn about mind. Ask yourself that what you are doing is a productive or non productive. Now I am talking about something which I didn't knew anything much about this topic eight and a half years back. But when I learned I have decided that the value which is driving me is freedom. Mahatma Gandhi Ji helped India to get to be freedom. There were other people but you always need a leader. Without leader there is no direction. And after freedom Lal Bhardu Sastry ji was leading India as a second prime minister. He has given the slogan Jaya Jaya van Jai Keshan. So your soldiers are important. Your farmers are important. Why? Because there is. Soldiers will help you to maintain peace. Farmers will help you to build prosperity. Now are you going in that direction? World is going in different direction. But you can choose your direction. That's all for today. Hope this was this made some sense. I'm sharing this because I feel that world needs this as of now. Share your thoughts, share with other people like comment and I will keep coming with every day some thoughts of wisdom which I feel that I can inspire, influence, impact the world through what I am doing. So my name is Deepak Badra. I'm an alignment mastery coach, I'm author of the book Grow your money tree and I I love I choose to do what I'm doing. It's not I have to do that's all today. I'll come back again tomorrow with some new topic. Till that time have a great evening again. I'm wishing these two Legion leaders very happy birth anniversary to them. Let's follow some of their principles. I have made some notes in the post. Read it. Which one more connects with you? Freedom, Truth, non violence, Faith. What connects with you? Prosperity, peace. Write it. That's all. Have a great evening, great day and great life ahead. Bye.
