Within Me
Even in today's world, beauty and truth can still be
found and the first place to start looking is within my
own self.
Palace of Silence
One who lives in a palace of silence and peace has the
power to send positive vibrations outside, yet prevent
the negative vibrations from outside from reaching
inside. If you move yourself into your personal 'Palace
of Silence' and create beautiful feelings in your
palace, these will become lovely vibrations which spread
outwards. Sound travels like an echo and comes back. But
when you have the power of positivity or the attitude of
silence, it does not work like an echo which comes back;
it travels very far away. It goes to a very subtle
place. Otherwise the atmosphere or upheaval outside
affects you very quickly.
Practical Ways of Changing Old Habits or Beliefs (cont.)
Exercises of Silence
Exercises of silence help you concentrate your mind and
intellect, and go within yourself to recover the
positive and eternal energies. With the appropriate
concentration of the mind and intellect towards your
constructive inner forces of peace, love and happiness,
you can strengthen yourself. Being strong means staying
positive when faced with negative situations, peaceful
when everything around you is chaotic: in other words,
not being influenced negatively but influencing the
situation with your positivity. When you stay calm in
your inner power of peace, you can transmit this to
others and help them to calm themselves. When you begin
exercises of silence, concentrate primarily on peace.
This is the basis of the practice, as when there is
inner balance and harmony it is easier to build over
these the other values love, happiness, truth and
sincerity. The experience of deep peace calms you,
clarifies you and fills you with energy to think and act
positively and achieve your purpose that you have set
for yourself.
Soul Sustenance
Taking Responsibility, Overcoming Guilt
When you free yourself of guilt, you live in peace
within. You take on responsibility and stop sentencing
(punishing) yourself internally with feelings of guilt.
Taking on responsibility is constructive; it allows
all your potential to remain awake and flow. You
feel free and unburdened. When you get it wrong, you can
find different methods to relieve yourself of the burden
that it might imply. For example, being sorry for or
feeling sad for something that you have done means that
you are aware that you have acted against your own
wellbeing or that of another. Realizing it is good; it
is the base for any positive change. The important
thing is not to sentence (punish) yourself. Learn the
lesson. Say sorry, if it is the right thing. Put it
right.
Remember that yesterday has already passed. The past
cannot be changed. You can't swallow the words that you
said, since you already said them. You can't repeat the
scene from yesterday in a different way because it
already happened and stayed recorded on the film of this
world drama. Therefore, don't repeat the words or the
scene in your mind over and over again; doing that, you
keep alive something that is dead, since yesterday
already stayed behind. Learn from the error and commit
yourself to you and to your life, promising to yourself
that you will not fall over the same stone again. You
will think about it before speaking or acting.

Message for the day
To be free from wants is to be free from waste.
Projection:
The one who is free from wants is the one who is free
from expectations. When there are no expectations, there
is not too much thought about what is not there or what
should be there. Since the mind is free from all these
kind of waste thoughts, whatever is done is the best.
Solution:
When I am free from wants or desires, I am able to
always remain content. I can then appreciate and enjoy
everything that comes my way, and do not expect anything
both from situations and people. So the mind is free
from waste thoughts and questions.
