Perfect Patience
Infinite patience
achieves instant results! How can this be true?
It is - but you'll need to meditate on it to see
it! When you do, and you can see it, you will
have walked through the gates of paradox and
rediscovered truth. Repeat after me...infinite
patience achieves instant results.
Responsibility
Responsibility is
being willing to be accountable for what you do
and
also what you do not do yourself. It means
accepting credit when
things go well and also correction if things go
wrong. It is the
ability to respond ably. I practice
Responsibility when I take my
agreements seriously, focus on what is required
by me and not on
someone else's part, when I am ready and willing
to clear up
misunderstandings. I give my best to all that I
do and keep my
promises. I welcome praise and correction for my
actions.
The Three Roles Of
God In The World Drama
God as a Creator
Logic tells us that spiritual and material
energy in the form of souls and matter didn't
just suddenly appear out of nothing. The
First Law of Thermodynamics states that energy
can't be either created or destroyed. Matter
itself is a form of condensed energy. Souls are
also conscious points of energy. Both are
uncreated and therefore eternal. The Second
Law shows us that energy, when in use, moves
from a potential state, in which energy is
available, to a spent state in which it is no
longer available. Putting both laws together
we have what appears to be a system in which the
basic components have neither beginning nor end.
They move towards a state of energy exhaustion
(entropy). If time were linear (a straight line)
and there were no external intervention, then
over an unimaginably long period of time the
universe would just fizzle out.
Fortunately for both the souls and the
elements of matter, there is one supreme energy
source which is external to the process of
entropy (unaffected by the process) and thereby
retains its original potency or power. When
things reach a certain stage of weakness and
chaos, the Supreme Soul plays out His role of
re-energizing the souls. The recuperation
(recovery) to their original state, in turn, has
a direct effect on matter. It also comes back to
its own original state of perfection. If, as has
been shown above, God's presence, power and
knowledge are purely spiritual, then creation
has to be a spiritual act and not a physical
one. Creation can be understood as the
regeneration or reshaping of what is already
there and not one of creating something physical
or non-physical out of nothing. God recharges
the souls' spent spiritual energy.

Soul Sustenance
Focus,
Will Power And Capabilities
In order to bring about a fundamental (major)
change three elements need to exist
simultaneously:
Focus: A clear sense of purpose in life
and clear goals to guide your life's activities.
Will: The motivation and enthusiasm to
introduce and sustain the actions.
Capabilities: The skills and abilities to
fulfill your purpose and goals.
But where do you start? There is definitely a
right place to begin and that is with your
focus. Why? Because if your focus is
powerful and based on a very deep sense of your
inner most purpose in life, then that will
provide you with the will power you need
to keep going. Then if you have a clear driving
focus in life and lots of will
power to back it up, you will soon develop the
skills and capabilities you need to make
it happen. You may not have them yourself, but
your enthusiasm and passion will certainly
inspire others who do have them to join you.
Message for the
day
The one who has
the aim to be perfect is the one who learns from
obstacles.
Expression:
The higher the aim, the more
the obstacles that comes one's way. Just as a
perfect idol is one that has been chiseled a
great deal, each obstacle comes to remove some
or the other defect from within. The one, who
understands this little secret, is able to use
each obstacle as a beautiful learning for
growth, and a chance to express the best
qualities from within.
Experience:
When I am committed to
bringing out my own inner perfection, I am never
deterred by the temporary situations that come
my way. I move on with confidence, taking time
to look within and recognize the hidden
potential within me. I am able to get closer and
closer to the perfection that I always seek.
