New Perspective
It is easy to create new things, change places
or do something different. To keep that sense of
newness that creates enthusiasm is more
difficult. The secret of newness in life is not
to do new things constantly, but to see
everything you do with new eyes, new insights
and a new perspective.
Worry Confused With Concern
One of the most incorrect beliefs that we
have acquired since childhood is that to
worry is to care, worrying is caring. Our
parents are the people whom we grow up with and
are closest to in our childhood. As soon as we
are born, in fact even before we are born, even
when we are in our mother's womb, they start
transmitting the energy of this belief through
their thoughts and later on when we are
physically present in front of them, through
thoughts, words and actions; to us, which we
catch, because we being a spiritual energy, not
only transmit or radiate but also absorb energy.
As we grow up, this false belief keeps reaching
us from everyone on a subtle as level as
physical level from whom we meet and are close
to including our friends, siblings (brothers and
sisters), spouse etc. and slowly we start
accepting this belief as being completely true
and lead our lives according to it and even
transmit the same to others. That is why it
is extremely difficult to find a single person
today who does not live according to this belief
or does not bring it into their daily lives to
some extent or the other.
A very common example of the above belief which
we all have gone through sometime or the other
is when we are late by just a few minutes in
coming back home from office. On reaching home,
we are asked a thousand questions and by our
family members, perhaps our parents or spouse or
children about where we have been and why hadn't
we bothered to call and also informed about
another thousand negative assumptions they had
made in that much time. Why? Because they had
been worried for us. We are normally surprised
with the fact they are worrying, because 9 out
of 10 times we are late because of a not so
serious reason, but our family members explain
that we were worrying for you because we care
for you. But worrying is not caring. Worry is
fear or anxiety and care is love or concern,
they are two opposite emotions which can never
exist together at the same time.
In tomorrow's message, we shall
demonstrate how on a subtle energy level, true
love and concern is more beneficial than worry
in coming out of negative situations, in which
we find ourselves every now and then.
Soul Sustenance
The Four Phases/Ages Of Humanity (cont.)
Looking at the complete human story explained
yesterday, we are now at the darkest period in
human affairs i.e. the end of the Iron Age or
Kalyug . Our spiritual power is at its
lowest level. We are no longer one world but
broken up into around 200 nation states. Like
children playing all day in the forest until
night has arrived, we realize that we don't know
where we are or how to get home. We start to
argue and fight with each other and small groups
break away and go in their own directions. Many
of us feel a sense of being lost. Our cries for
help take many forms.
The world is full of fear instead of love, vice
instead of virtue, sorrow instead of happiness,
conflict instead of harmony. These are all
symptoms of ill health at the spiritual and
mental levels. When they have an impact within
us as individuals, they result in physical
disease and, when they become a part of our
relationships, we harm each other (mentally and
physically).
The only way we can heal, renew and re-energize
our spirit or soul is to turn our faces to the
Sun of Spirit or the Supreme Spirit (God) and,
in that spiritual relationship, be open to
receiving the pure light and love which
reawakens, heals and re-energizes the soul. The
healing of our relationships can only happen
when we, as individuals, realize that we are
sources of love, children of the Ocean Of Love.
Tomorrow we shall be explaining what is the
fifth phase/age of humanity...
Message for the day
Truth brings humility
Projection:
When there is commitment for truth one has the
courage to express this truth in all aspects.
Even if others oppose or criticize such a person
is never affected. With humility he is able to
learn from everything that happens and further
uses each learning to go closer to the inner
truth.
Solution:
When I am firm in my commitment for truth, I am
able to enjoy the beauty of everything that
happens in my life. I recognise the fact that
everything and everyone is instrumental in
taking me closer to the truth. Thus, I am able
to remain humble appreciating everything and
learning constantly.
Stability
During chaotic and challenging situations the
mind is very naturally with negative and waste
thoughts. At such times, we do make an attempt
to stabilize and focus our thoughts. But we are
not very successful in doing this; however hard
we may try to. So we only wait for the situation
to change. But in the process we lose a lot of
energy and time. It needs a long time of
practice of keeping the mind free from negative
and waste in order to experience stability in
the present situation. For this we need to
practice with a positive thought each day, which
remains as an experience in whatever we do. This
practice helps us during the time of need.
