Anger & Peace
Anger is the power of ignorance and peace is the
power of knowledge.
True introspection is realization of our inner
qualities.
Realizing one's own mistakes and making
amendments is usually associated with negative
feelings. But true introspection lies in
realizing one's own positive qualities. It is to
see ourselves with "real eyes" and see the
hidden potential and strengths. When we truly
realize, there is change and that mistake would
never be repeated. Today I will see a strength
of mine. This is some quality that I really like
about me. In whatever I do today, I will keep
awareness of this specialty as a background.
This will help me bring quality to whatever I
do.
Tapping Guidance From The Supreme Intellect
(cont.)
In yesterday's message, we had discussed how no
human entity can fulfill all the necessary
requirements of someone who can guide us
correctly in any difficult situation. Thus to
proceed in such a situation, it's good to take
the guidance from the intellect of someone who
fulfills all these criteria. That someone is no
one except the Supreme Being or God, who is the
entity possessing the most powerful intellect,
and intellect with the most perfect judgment
power. Sometimes my mind and intellect is
absolutely clean and clear and I am 100% sure
about my right course of action for the future,
but even in those times its good to verify the
course of action from a higher authority. So, in
those times, it is very important to connect for
a few minutes with the Supreme, who is an Energy
of Unlimited Truth. Then, the question to ask
myself at that time is not what do I want, or
what do others want, but most importantly: What
does the Supreme want, what is his wish, what is
his perception of the situation? The deeper
my connection with Him in meditation, the
clearer the answer will come.
When it becomes a regular practice, it will
be as simple as taking guidance from my physical
parent or spouse or friend. I'll know without
wasting time and energy, the right course of
action. Sometimes it may happen that the
answer may not come to me immediately, but by
connecting my intellect with the Supreme's
intellect my intellect will become clear, which
will help me take the right decision. Also, in
some cases the Supreme may not respond
immediately but may guide me through some other
medium, whether living or non-living after some
time or even after a day or two.
Soul Sustenance
The Location of the Soul Inside the Body
The soul has the following basic functions to
perform:
• to give life to the body and to maintain
life inside it,
• to express and experience its role through the
body, and
• to receive the rewards or fruits of past
actions performed in previous births, through
the body.
These functions are controlled and monitored by
the soul via the nervous and hormonal systems
from a particular point in the area of the brain
which contains the thalamus, hypothalamus,
pituitary and pineal glands. This region is
known as the seat of the soul, or the third
eye. The connection between the physical
(body) and the non-physical (soul) is by the
medium of thought energy. Many religions and
philosophies place great importance on the third
eye, or eye of the mind. When viewed from
the front, this region appears to be between and
slightly above the line of the eyebrows. It's
for this reason that Hindus use a tilak,
a dot in red or sandalwood paste in the middle
of the forehead. Christians also make the sign
of the cross in this region. Even when one makes
a mistake or expresses tiredness it's to this
region that we put the hands in the gestures of
self-dismay or exhaustion. After all the soul
subconsciously knows that it makes the mistakes
and not the body. When people are concentrating
deeply in thought it is this area of the
forehead where creases or lines are formed on
the skin.
Message
for the day
True nourishment is the nourishment of
happiness.
Projection:
We pay a lot of attention to
maintain the physical health. We give it food
everyday, nourishment that keeps us healthy.
This helps in replenishing the physical energy,
but we don't pay that much attention to nourish
the mind.
Solution:
The real nourishment is to keep giving happiness
to the self. When the mind is happy, then
automatically I find myself being energetic
constantly. For this I need to make sure I give
myself something that I am happy about everyday.
