Exercise and Diet
Unhealthy lifestyles are rooted in the mind and
seeded in the soul. The spiritual exercise of
the mind involves taking the mind out of the
physical body and to the subtle, angelic body of
light and then to our state of being a soul - a
sentient point of light and power. As for diet
control, pure thoughts are the healthy diet for
the mind. Creative thoughts are like vitamins
and positive thoughts provide proteins that
build will power, while thoughts of serving
others are like carbohydrates, which provide
energy for the mind.
Fly Above
When difficult situations come our way, we tend
to create a lot of waste questions in our mind.
These waste questions only fill our mind with
negativity draining us out of our energy. At
that time, it seems natural to have such
thoughts and we are caught up only with such
thoughts, leaving no space for constructive
thoughts. When difficult situations come our
way, we need not be caught up with why it
happened but we need to make effort to fly. We
need to find a way to empower ourselves that we
become stronger than the situation, so that we
are able to fly above it. Then the situation
would appear tiny and we would be able to
overcome it in a second.
Understanding The Inner Mechanism Of Anger
If we think, speak and act in an angry way, we
leave an impression or memory of anger within
our own consciousness which results in
sanskara of anger to be born. Within the
sanskara is the recorded emotion and
experience of our expression towards the object
of our anger. The object is a particular person
or situation. If we encounter the object of our
anger the next day, it will trigger the
emergence the recorded anger from within the
sanskara. We then deepen the sanskara
as we express more anger, even if we only
'think' anger. The emergence of this emotional
energy from within our consciousness then stops
us from interacting in a positive way. It clouds
our mind and confuses our intellect, weakening
and distorting our thoughts, decisions and
behaviour. This often explains why we find it
harder to connect and communicate with certain
people in our life. Essentially we are carrying
a negative image of the other person within our
sanskara from a previous interaction with
them. And when we see them again it emerges the
energy within the sanskara, which then
influences our ability to respond to them.
Soul Sustenance
Quality Transformation (Change)
Quality change is the capacity to transform
negative situations, or circumstances, into
something beneficial for one's self and others.
Quality transformers are people who can
turn walls of resistance into bridges of
understanding and keep crossing them, who can
change any obstacle into a stepping stone of
success and can reverse the troubling,
paralyzing dragon of doubt and insecurity into
radiant self-confidence, dissolving the thought
‘impossible’ from the mind.
Such people work with the undercurrents of life
that determine the external reality, of human
interaction. These undercurrents are their
attitudes, thoughts and feelings. If these
undercurrents are filled with resentment, anger
and selfishness, then, despite being polite and
cooperative externally with people,
relationships will be subject to damage and
deterioration. On the other hand, when the
undercurrent is filled with trust and sincerity,
then the quality of life and relationships is
enhanced. The fundamental source of quality is
the existence of a positive undercurrent. It is
not a matter of our words, actions or role
(which is the external reality), but rather the
foundation, the undercurrent i.e. the thoughts
and the activity of the mind.
Meditation enables the mind to tune in to that
undercurrent of thoughts, feelings, and
attitudes, which is the invisible creator of our
human reality. The nourishing power of silence,
attained through meditation and spiritual
knowledge, gives us the means to bring about
quality transformation (change) in this
undercurrent. Such change enhances our
self-confidence and the capacity to creatively
and positively relate to life as it is and face
situations easily.
Message for the day
The best way to progress is to gain good wishes
and blessings from others.
Projection:
For the one who earns the blessings of others at
every step, there is easy success. There is
positivity and specialty revealed in every
action and benefit for the self and others. Even
the most difficult circumstances, don't deter
such a person, but he has the power and the
courage to move on. So there is constant
progress, whatever the situations may be.
Solution:
When I am able to take good wishes from those
around me, I am able to experience being
obstacle-free. I am able to move forward with
ease under all circumstances. Even in the most
difficult situations, I am able to take the
benefit from those around me, for others are
willing to provide support at the right time,
because my actions have earned good wishes from
others.
