Colour your Life
Each positive quality within you is like a
colour.
Orange represents thoughtfulness & creativity;
yellow - happiness & clarity; pink - love &
compassion;
blue - serenity & reliability; red - strength &
courage;
green - healing & prosperity; and white - truth
and purity.
By emerging more & more positive qualities in
your lives, you light up your life, & radiate
that colour for others to enjoy.
Your inner potential offers you an unlimited
colour palette. Discover your own spectrum of
colours.
Know Yourself
Only in relationships can you know yourself, not
in abstraction and
certainly not in isolation. The movement of
behaviour is the sure guide
to yourself, it's the mirror of your
consciousness; this mirror will
reveal its content, the images, the attachments,
the fears, the
loneliness the joy and the sorrow. Poverty lies
in running away from
this, either in its sublimations or its
identities.
Uprooting The Emotion Of Worry
What is a good definition of worry? Worry
is a process of imagining the worst possible
outcome or result or future in a particular
situation and creating a living and active image
of it in front of the eye of your mind, and then
using the energy of that negative image to flow
inside your consciousness so as to completely
overpower or weaken your spiritual and as a
result your physical self to evoke fear in the
self.
When people are asked about this process, a
person who is attached to this process and is
involved in the process very regularly the whole
day in different types of situations, one who is
a habitual worrier, responds "But it's important
to worry, it's good to worry. If we don't think
of different possible negative outcomes, how
will we prepare for them?" It's important to
realize that the belief, that by worrying, we
prepare for the worst in the future is a false
one. This belief causes us not to realize
the truth that all worry is simply an incorrect
and fruitless creation. It is a wrong use of the
positive, constructive and imaginative capacity
of our mind and intellect which, instead of
empowering the mind and intellect, weakens it.
Preparing for the future is important and
necessary, but very often while doing that, we
enter the territory of worry, which leaves us,
defeated or weakened. There is an extremely fine
line between proactive preparation (necessary
preparation in advance) on the one hand and
worry on the other. The preparation can be done
without creating an excessive number of possible
negative outcomes in the mind.

A Powerful Consciousness Of Faith In Critical
Situations (Part 2)
Having accepted the reality that negative
situations in our mind, body, wealth or
relationships will arise in our life from time
to time (explained yesterday), a question arises
what kind of consciousness do I keep in these
kind of situations and how do I ensure that the
situation does not overpower my consciousness.
Because only a powerful consciousness of
faith or victory will keep me protected from the
negative emotional (internal) and physical
(external) influence of these problems but will
also become the most important influencing
factor which will help me in overcoming the
problem and going towards the solution or
attracting it towards me, sometimes
immediately and sometimes slowly, but steadily,
without losing my inner stability during the
period that I wait for the solution to arise.
What is a powerful consciousness of faith when
faced with a negative situation? “No negative
scene or situation of any type in my life lasts
forever and this scene shall also pass and I
shall emerge victorious over it using the power
of thought, the power of positivity, the power
of spiritual knowledge, the power of meditation.
Victory is my birthright and it is dead
certain.” This is in short a powerful
consciousness of faith.
In tomorrow’s message, we shall explain what is
preventing us from keeping this consciousness of
faith and how we can maintain it in critical
situations.
Message for the day
The way to be rid of waste thoughts is to
maintain a powerful thought.
Expression:
When the intellect is
accomplished with powerful thoughts, waste
thoughts cannot enter. Only when the intellect
remains empty that there is place for waste
thoughts to enter. To be busy with elevated
thoughts is to keep the mind free from waste.
All it needs is to turn on the switch of one
powerful thought, then wastage finishes. This is
just like a switch which brings light and
finishes darkness. Then there is no wastage in
words and actions too.
Experience:
When I make the practice of
keeping a single elevated thought in my
intellect, I am able to be free from the bondage
of wastage. I find that a lot of time and energy
of mine is saved. Even when there is an external
situation of conflict, chaos and confusion,
there is no internal chaos and there is only
power in my thoughts. So I make decisions easily
and quickly and I enjoy all the situations that
come my way.
