Anger
A sensible person knows that it is a waste of
time and energy to get angry. Effort will then
have to be made to reconstruct that
relationship. It is much more useful to breathe
deeply, pay attention to your attitude and
answer without rushing. In this way, improve and
strengthen your relationships with others.
Create trust and your mistakes will be forgiven.
A true diamond
reveals its sparkle wherever it is.
Sometimes, we tend
to get affected by the negativity of the
situation. We then lose touch with our inner
qualities. But reminding myself that I am like a
true diamond keeps me free from negative
influences. I then continue to sparkle with my
inner qualities wherever I am. I can thus help
get in touch with their qualities too. Today I
will smile at myself and be proud of what I am.
I will remind myself that I am the true diamond
who can never lose the sparkle of my inner
qualities and happiness where ever I am. This
practice will help me be prepared to deal with
the variety of situations that life brings my
way.
Seeing Yourself In A
Positive Light
Sit down in silence, relax, breathe deeply and
create a space within you... Now feel yourself
looking at your inner being, with your third
eye, in a different light... Instead of
focusing on your weaknesses, failures, what you
lack inside, what is lacking in your life, look
out for what beautiful treasures, your
qualities, specialties, talents, etc. you have
inside you, look at the positive aspects of your
life and bring them into your conscious
awareness... Becoming 'self-aware' in this way,
realize, you have so much to offer, so much to
give to others...
Now, create a beautiful image of yourself where
you see yourself as free... free of negative
feelings for yourself and others, with a pure
heart and a peaceful mind... Feel and see your
inner greatness, discover that you are special
and unique... Come back to being your own
friend... Love yourself, accept yourself and
respect yourself... Appreciate and value the
qualities of others...
Feel fine being yourself, in that space, in that
room that there is within you, where you are
secure and safe, where you can enjoy the
marvelous thing that is your own company, the
company of a positive being...
Be awake and full of life... you are happy... at
peace... feeling peace... sharing peace...
feeling free... Having seen yourself in a
positive light, prepare yourself to enter into
action, maintaining your stage of
self-esteem...

Understanding
Qualities And Virtues
Human beings have original qualities that are
values which define our human and spiritual
nature. The original qualities of each person
are similar. The only difference is to be found
in the intensity with which they are expressed.
There are seven intrinsic qualities in human
nature: peace, love, purity, happiness, power,
bliss and truth. These qualities, that we all
possess, are expressed in our life,
relationships and activities in the form of
different virtues. Any virtue that we express in
our life and day-to-day interactions is not
usually a unique quality; normally these virtues
are a variety of qualities (listed above) that
work together and express themselves. If we
blend some primary colours, we get a wide range
of colours. While we are expressing these
original qualities in action, they mix together
and become virtues.
For example, patience is not an original quality
of the self, but it is an important virtue,
necessary for keeping calm in today's world.
Patience possesses a little of the quality of
love, wisdom and peace. If these original
qualities are missing, in the sense that we have
lost our contact with them, then impatience and
irritability will arise. The virtue of tolerance
requires inner strength, love and peace.
From the moment we are born, we are subject to
many negative influences from our family,
society, religion, education, the media,
culture, social class and ethnic background,
that tarnish our basic values and often restrict
our ability to express them in the form of
different virtues in our daily actions and
interactions. Spirituality helps us to revive
these basic values.
Message for the day
Obedience takes
one towards the right direction.
Projection:
Obedience means understanding
everything that comes one's way and allowing it
to guide life in the right way - because nothing
comes without a reason. An obedient mind is able
to see the positive aspect and understand why
there is that kind of a situation and humbly
allows the situation to do its work.
Solution:
When I am obedient I am able to
remain content and positive. I am not
disheartened by low situations but understand
that every low situation pushes me upward with
greater force. So I enjoy being obedient and
easy under all circumstances, yet being powerful
within.
