Wish you a successful International Day of Sports | National Sports Day Speech in English | National Sports Day Essay in English
6th April is International Day of Sports… Hence today, let’s take some wonderful spiritual inspirations from sports, for achieving success in life always!
Introduction
Life can be a equated to a game of sports:
- The aim in sports is to score maximum runs, goals, etc… Similarly, the aim in life is to keep an elevated state of mind always!
- Sports is played against opponents… Here, our opponents are our old sanskars of sorrow, over which we have to become victorious!
This awareness (that life is a game) keeps our state of mind very light & relaxed throughout the day!
Sports is full of energy & enthusiasm… Similarly, let us also remain full of energy, by going beyond waste thoughts i.e., energy-depletors
Even when faced with different circumstances (i.e., opponents, pitch, weather, ground, etc), a champion player focuses on adapting his own game… Similarly, rather than worrying about external situations, let’s just strengthen ourselves, to remain victorious i.e., stable & happy in every scene of life!
Indeed, even if situations throws bouncers at us, let’s hit them for a sixer! (i.e., elevate our stage even further!)
In sports, selecting the right coach & support staff is crucial… Hence, let’s make God our coach, and remain in the company of pure elevated souls working on themselves… To easily achieve the best success always
Becoming the best sports-star!
Sports-stars never eat oily food, to maintain fitness… Similarly, let’s avoid putting any wrong information within, to maintain pure thoughts always
In sports, few are naturally talented & gifted with the required skills… But in life, everyone of us is gifted with the capacity to create good pure thoughts!
Playing sports means a full body exercise… Similarly, let’s also perform the exercise of mind (i.e., meditation) daily!
There’re both indoor & outdoor sports… Hence, when we excel in our inner sports (i.e., an elevated mind!), our outdoor sports (i.e., work, caring for relations, etc) automatically becomes beautiful!
In Tennis, a powerful 1st serve wins a lot of matches… Similarly, meditating for a few minutes in the morning makes the entire day very easy & successful (i.e., light, stable & happy)
In sports, a free kick / free hit is a bonus that can be used very effectively… Similarly, even we get a lot of free time on Sundays & holidays, hence let’s also use this time for empowering our mind… To make our entire working week very smooth, efficient & happy!
Success in sports requires disciplind practice… Similarly, let’s remain disciplined i.e., regular & punctual in our practice of spiritual knowledge & meditation, to become a Pro in maintaining an elevated state of mind always!
People use so much money to go & watch a match… And here, we’re able to watch the wonderful dynamics of the game of life for free!… Hence, let’s enjoy it fully i.e., remain happy always!
The beauty of Humility!
Sports is accompanied with lot of fame, but champion players don’t get carried away, but keep focusing on their game… Similarly, even on receiving appreciation for achievements, let’s not get carried away with ego, but keep improving ourselves!
Millions wish to become a sports star, but very few become… Similarly, the position we’ve reached in our professional & daily life, many are yearning for it but can’t achieve… Hence, let’s remain very fortunate & grateful for everything we’ve got!
Even if the 1st serve goes wrong in Tennis, we’re allowed a 2nd serve without penalty… Similarly, life always gives us a 2nd chance, hence let’s never give up, and keep progressing ahead with zeal & enthusiasm
Almost all sports require a ball to play… And although the ball is hit & kicked so many times, it remains as good as new… Similarly, even though challenging situations may come in life, let’s become so strong from within, that we retain our original happy smiling face always!
Indeed, just like a ball is light in weight, let’s also become very light from within!
Best Practices
Success in sports frequently requires managing pressure situations, and players who’re able to remain cool usually become successful… Similarly, to remain calm in adverse situations, let’s start remaining calm in small everyday situations, to automatically remain calm in the bigger situations! (since calmness has now become our predominant sanskar)
Many spectators go through a whole range of emotions when watching a match… Instead, let’s build the practice of watching the match in a slightly detached & un-influenced manner, so we’re then easily able to remain calm & stable in all the situations of our life too… Thereby, able to contribute positively in all aspects!
The umpire in tennis is seated at a higher position to see things clearly… Similarly, when our stage is elevated i.e., above small petty matters, we’re able to see the clear picture, hence enabling the right decisions for all!
Sports-people need very good stamina, to play for long durations… Similarly, to face the daily challenges of life with stability, let’s build an excess capacity of good wishes & peace within through meditation… Indeed, let’s build such a huge stock of inner powers, which never gets finished however challenging the day may be!
Importance of Relations
Success in sports requires teamwork… Similarly, let’s inculcate the virtue of unity for success in life!
Sports-stars are followed by millions of youth worldwide… Similarly, even we are the hero actors of this world drama, towards whom everyone is looking at… Hence, let’s play our every part with utmost care & grace!
Today, a match being played at one place can be watched by millions worldwide, thanks to media… Similarly, even our social media activities are watched by the whole world (i.e., our world!), hence let’s use it carefully
Sportsmen are taught sportsmanship spirit… Similarly in life, let us also accept failures gracefully, respect other businessmen in our field, etc
Moving ahead!
Even though one achieves the pinnacle of success in sports, everything will be left behind when the soul leaves… Similarly, alongwith external progress, let’s also focus on our true long-term spiritual progress by daily listening to spiritual knowledge & meditation
Every sport has certain rules… Similarly:
- The rule of life is the rule of karma i.e., whatever we give, so we get… Hence, let’s do our karma with utmost care & caution
- Let’s live our life based on proper rules & regulations (i.e., niyam & maryaadas), which are:
- Own-created (so we follow them with enthusiasm), and
- Based on God’s Shrimat i.e., elevated directions (so they’re based on eternal truths)
Sports have rankings… Similarly, let’s become so virtuous & divine that:
- We can give the highest ranking to ourselves in our mind!
- We earn the highest ranking in God’s heart, by becoming very pure & illuminating the lives of everyone around
Conclusion (National Sports Day speech in English)
Hence, let’s make God our coach in life… And even when faced with challenging situations, let’s keep focusing on our own game i.e., empower our mind through spiritual knowledge & meditation… This ensures we emerge victorious & successful (i.e., in the experience of our original virtues of peace, love & happiness) in every scene of life… Thereby, also becoming an inspiration for all around, hence we’ll together bring the divine land Satyuga once again!
Indeed, this day is actually called International Day of Sport for Development & Peace… Hence, by developing an elevated way of living, let’s create the living Land of Peace Satyuga once again!
Om Shanti!
