Portrait of Sri Nithyananda Paramashivam

Worry is only an illusion. The little voice we continuously hear in our head is the inner chatter which is the source of worry. In our normal state we are constantly in chatter. Even if we do not talk out loud to another person, as many stressed people in fact do, we talk silently within. Not only is our mind not at rest, but the thoughts it generates also take shape as a monologue or dialogue within us. This inner chatter is what we call worry.

Sri Nithyananda Paramashivam illustration

Worry is nothing but the constantly repetitive inner negative chatter. Again and again we refer to the past and project it to the future by connecting all the negative things that have happened to us in the past. We then visualize the same thing happening in the future. Left to themselves ninety percent of your worries will never materialize. I have shown this to people who have attended our courses.

Write down your worries and review them six months later. Almost all of your worries never really happened. The ten percent that did happen was good for them!
