Pebbles Transformation®

"Pebbles Transformation® is a novel concept conceived by Krish K. Madembeth drawing inspiration from the pebble stones. It depicts the micro improvements one can make in their life even with soft action that can add up to considerable results over a period of time. This isn't about instant change. Results are thus achieved by consistent soft action (like waves of water on a small stone turning it into a beautiful pebble over time)"
Conceiving the Pebbles Transformation concept, has a little story attached to it and I wish to express this here to understand the emotions behind forming the 'Pebbles Transformational Method®'.
This happened during some silent moments at the sea shores, when I picked my own inspiration to life and living from the pebbles, during the most turbulent times of my life.
I was going through a rough patch in my life, rather a realization that I've failed miserably in multiple faculties of my life, including my fragile build since childhood, and health issues there off, making me vulnerable to sickness most of the days, and not conducive to face the larger life anymore that is dominated by stronger people or their greater accomplishments.
Conceived as a misfit and a failure, dealing multiple allergies, sleep issues and being victim of wrong medical treatments, loneliness, all combined, one day, I was sitting by the beach (Chavakkad) all alone during a visit to a spiritual place, and keenly observing the sea, the fierceness of the waves and her calmness in equal terms, when the waves finally fade away caressing some small stones in the trailing process. I observed that the fierceness and her calmness is so beautifully intertwined and balanced.
In the midst of all my thoughts of how difficult life is for the weak me and again how impossible it is for me to reform myself once again for the better, suddenly, I happened to spot a bunch of beautiful and shiny pebbles in the waters beneath the shores and the waves gently caressing them. Observing those white, black and colorful pebble stones, a thought suddenly flashed in my mind that made me feel it's possible. Nature sometimes is the biggest teacher and here it happened to me too.
In that moment, I somehow felt within me that my transformation too is possible and I may be able to live among the crowd too. The pebbles showed me that at that single moment that even small can become special. The pebble thought not a large rock, it stands out on its own in front of this massive ocean. It came to my mind that if a rough and strong little stone can transform to a smooth, round, beautiful and colorful pebble, not by beating, not by stressing or hard ways, but only by the continuous soft action of just water and sand flashing over it over period of time, then I imagined the transformational possibilities human potential holds with soft action over a period of time.
No hard ways are needed, no push and pull is needed. This thought stayed with me and thus gave birth to The Pebbles Transformation Method. Only through soft consistent action, which later led me to also form the 'PsyYoga meditation' as a vehicle to it.
The Pebbles gave me hope and the confidence to live again, live to a changed life with no harshness, slow, soft and consistent efforts and showed me the way like a God sent at that moment.
I felt for the first time not to give up on life, and to look for the small soft possibilities instead.
A realization that was silently screaming inside my head that said:
No hard action is needed.
Why suffer?
Now, imagine the power of transformation that is possible within all of us towards leading a blissful life - just like the transformation those pebbles have gone through.
Small but constant efforts towards this end can bring out the best in all of us just like the little beautiful pebbles. Isn't it?
No hard action or force is needed, only prolonged soft action like the soft sand and the caressing water.
I also realized then that, there's no big purpose in our life or our creation and the small and simple purpose is:
The purpose of our lives is to transform intrinsically and extrinsically our little rough stone life into a beautiful and colorful pebble stone life and live our life in beauty and bliss." - Krish K. Madembeth.
Even if we don't, some situations like what I went through in my life will also take all of us towards that direction at some point in our life. A realization and a calling for inner transformation.
Not only as an individual but its also necessary to transform as a society in todays times, as the reasons I was down was more of it too.
Let me try and explain a bit. everyday, we thrive to experience life in all its vivid colors, and alongside a longing for deeper fulfilment in what we do and try to accomplish all that we desire.
With this purpose in our mind, we tend to keep ourselves always busy, we work hard and play hard towards this end. This is what most of us do, most of the time.
But with this busyness alone, the desired level of inner peace or satisfaction doesn't happen by natural means to most of us. Thus we tend to remain a rough stone dominated with sharp edged negative emotions like harshness, anger, fear, regrets etc., leading to some kind of continuous inner pain screaming us about our unfulfilled life, though we seem to have everything. This is as a result of the internal turbulence we all endure leading to some kind of inner imbalance.
There's also an external turbulences one cannot avoid, because today, our civilization is not in the best of form.
Though significant good, and not so good, transformations in all walks of our societal lives have taken place over the years, those silent ensuing negative transformations too have happened and have added to the inner turbulences of individuals and has ultimately led us to where we are now.
There is substantial progress, no doubt, we as a society. Yes, we have all collectively come out of the more brutal era of the past dotted with savaging wars, incurable diseases, destructions, and famines, due to the progress we have made as a civilization.
But, that progress today has also become an uncontrollable progress.
This uncontrolled progress has its side effects too. Everything is commodified and packaged, even the human emotions we see that happening in the AI era. Everything has become pushy and rushed. With no real experiences or happiness to many. And to that artificiality of our lives, technology like AI has made it more and more difficult for us to find reality in our lives.
The hard truth is that : Most of us aren't living the best possible lives, our children aren't living the best possible lives either.
As a society, everything doesn't point to a good life for most people, be it private or public.
Growing dissatisfaction and differences socially, culturally, religiously, economically is creating havoc in the modern society and this is advocated by so called leaders of today in the name of progress. Everything is imposed in a harsh way causing distress.
Uncontrolled urbanization, mass migration is taking its toll on our Planet Earth too.
Let’s reflect on this a bit, to reach where we are today in the timeline of human civilization, to plant our nation's ambassadors in various other nation's, to reach a level of comradeship in international scheme of things, like for instance, the human rights, comradeship in sports, tourism, commerce, etc., to mention a few, and all the cooperation in various fields like science, space, medicine, we took this much time in the timeline of our human history.
We have been definitely successful to a large extent and we all must be proud of it.
We are also proud to flaunt the likes and privileges of international travel, cross border migration, studying / working abroad in the Country of our preference. We have demonstrated that resilience, that success, and reinforced that spirit of oneness in us, that we can do it, and live as a true global citizen.
But these privileges has also brought more challenges with it.
Uncontrolled growth has resulted in uncontrolled exploitation.
Today, we are at the crossroads of more challenging times.
The times of over exploitation of natural resources, Earths minerals, her oceans, human potential, wrong / over use of technology, digital exploitation, misinformation, using digital media for spreading cultural or religious hate, over automation in industries leading to job loss, etc, all this has resulted in the 'great divide.'
Divide between the 'have's and the have not's,' widening difference's leading to conflicts at various levels in our society.
The answer to the next level of transformation, as a civilization, is not outside or is not in the purview of the laws or leaderships.
It’s within one and all of us. That's the aim of Pebbles Transformation.
Today the basic human nature of concern, morals, compassion and tolerance, minimalism is now missing and this must once again bloom within ourselves paving way to paint a larger canvas of hope, trust and a good life for generations to come. And all these needs to be aligned to what I call the Nature's law of Diversity Equilibrium. that signifies that 'Nothing should be same'. 'Nothing should be one.' Because, Nature doesn't like it.
Every thing must be diverse and must co-exist, that's what nature wants. Nature has shown us many a times in human history that any effort by any set of humans to monopolize any belief system will fail miserably in the long run. Because it's aganist the principles of nature like the principles of gravity to give an example.
Diversity is the god of nature, and that will always be that way and diversity alone will always triumph." - Krish K. Madembeth
For all this to happen, a inner transformation in all of us at the societal level is needed, like the pebbles. Let each one us too transform into a beautiful and colorful pebble.
Let me assert that, the next stage in progress of our civilization cannot be envisaged without a moral transformation for peaceful co-existence. Else, technology and separatist beliefs will destroy us all including them. Every other thing has been tried and done in the past- in vain, the moral transformation inspired by the pebbles en masse as I mention above is the viable solution.
For the common man living in the 21st century, one thing is for sure:
Our planet needs urgent healing. Our humanity needs urgent healing too. Morally. -PsyYoga,org
That’s the next stage.
Healing, to transcend to the next level of human progress.
Next level of progress, where there is no more exploitation.
Where there is moderation , liberty and decency in everything from population to pollution.
Progress, but one that is not blind to environmental needs and concerns. One that does not encourage further mushrooming of concrete jungles, high rise buildings, separatists, and cut-throat competitions challenging the very basic human ideals.
The ones that doesn’t encourage just the survival of the fittest but, survival of all stake holders of our plant in unity and diversity including people of all regions, religions, cultures and also the flora and fauna all living together in unity, harmony and peace. Unwatched. Unexploited. Unpoliced.
We need to build a Global Garden of Ecology, Diversity and Tolerance.” - PysYoga.org
I call this next level of transformation “Mission Morality” and will also run its course too and its time to inculcate it.
Pebbles Transformation® isn't restricted to personal transformation, it’s aim is to transform to humanity 2.0" - PsyYoga.org
This kind of mass transformation cannot happen external and cannot be forced. It must happen internal to each one of us. Like the pebbles. Rough to smooth and beautiful to experience life in a beautiful diverse and colorful society.
This is a start, a movement towards that end, spreading the awareness and the purpose, initiating transformation action and slowly sustaining for a longer time with soft and consistent action to convert the rough rocks within us, in our society, into smooth beautiful pebbles, so we all can live happier and peaceful lives for generations to come.
The subject also involves internal concerns for life, planet Earth and good living as the basic principles for further human progress and sustainability.
I strongly believe, inculcating this in the young minds would be the best investment for our planets and civilizations future.
From a spiky rough stone that we have become today it's a long road ahead to turn this little stone into a beautiful pebble." - PsyYoga.org
As a society, we’ve reached here to some level. In the timeline of change.
This hasn't happened by chance, but with the great efforts and sacrifices of various transformational souls worldwide who have contributed their bit from all walks of life, spanning many a generations.
From here, we need to take it to the next level:
Transform to a higher level, I call this the Humanity 2.0.
We need to take humanity to the next level to Humanity 2.0 , It’s now our responsibility to transform from a spiky little stone into a beautiful pebble. From a tiny little moth into a beautiful butterfly. - PsyYoga.org
We all need to transform as a society. Morally.
No amount of policing or action will help and inner transformation leading to tolerance and peace is the only sustainable solution in the present scenario and for the good of all in the long run.
Let's all be good, good to planet earth, good to our co-inhabitants. Lets all accept and respect the diversity within our civilization.
Lets unitedly show the greedy that our goodness alone can transform this civilization into a beautiful pebble, a shiny little stone that we can pass on to the next generation, the most valuable gift that we can offer:
A morally valuable green earth will be the highest gift we all can give to the next generation." - PsyYoga.org
That'll be next definitive milestone in the timeline of human progress.
Else, Nature will teach us hard by striking back in much harsher ways.
If we do not collectively mend.
The pandemic is one such reminder. Natural disasters like floods and droughts that sweep our planet is yet another reminder to urgently control the hyper human activity and greedy dominance on planet Earth.
No amount of CCTV cameras, artificial intelligence, or stringent laws will ever change the scheme of things from here-on.
Our strong belief is, for this societal morality graph is to ascend, for diversity to be respected, moral transformation must first happen at the individual level’s en-masse.
This resultant snowballing effect will transform the society at large into Humanity 2.0 and transport us to a life of hope and happiness for one and all. only then people of all cultures, ethnicity, religion, language etc., will live in harmony together.
This is the the primary aim of 'Pebbles Transformation.'
I wish to be no super thinker or guru but, one amongst all of you, with a simple mission aimed at the transformation of self and ultimately Humanity to the next level to Humanity 2.0 through my mantra of 'Pebbles Transformation.'
To aspire, to imbibe and to work towards this direction, together.
Happy days!
- Krish K. Madembeth.
