Thought Diet
Why not make your mind healthier and go on a
thought diet!
Cut down on all those unhealthy negative and
wasteful thoughts that offer no nutritional
value. Start feeding your mind with positive
healthy thoughts.
Here's our suggestion for a balanced diet for
the mind:
For vitamins, have creative ideas.
For proteins, think powerful thoughts about
yourself.
For carbohydrates, have good feelings for
others.
Silence
Am I comfortable with silence? Or does the mind
get fidgety when I am physically silent and
bring up questions and uncertainties related to
my life and relationships? Silence to some is
boring and unproductive but that depends on my
thoughts. I have two magical tools in hand: the
mind and intellect. When I teach both to work in
synchrony, I create for myself unforgettable
experiences of empowerment, love, wisdom,
compassion, forgiveness, far-sightedness... In
silence, I can detach from my body, task and
relationships and see which next step would be
beneficial for myself and others. The more I
discipline the mind with love, it will become my
closest friend.
The Interplay Between Souls, Matter And The
Supreme Soul
The forces which interact to produce the
phenomena of world history and geography: souls,
matter and the Supreme Soul (God), are threaded
by the law of karma. When there is mental
communion (connection) with the Supreme, the
soul's relationship with matter changes. This
means that the internal love-link that the soul
has with the Supreme is reflected in the
performance of the soul in the material world
and in the degree to which the soul has mastery
over matter; firstly over the sense organs of
the body and through that, over the colors,
shapes and sounds of the material world.
We have continually sought to understand which
way to act, but have lost our sense of direction
for various reasons:
* We forgot that we were soul-actors.
* We became lost on the world stage.
* We became over-identified with our costumes
the physical body.
* We lost sight of the story of the drama.
* We forgot that we were residents of the soul
world.
* Due to body-consciousness the soul severed
(broke) its subtle connection with the Supreme
Soul.
Soul Sustenance
Creating Positive Habits
To overcome a
negative habit, we have to ensure that the
intellect is strong and stable enough to lead
the mind with knowledge and comprehension. In
this way, transformation is more deep and
lasting, creates satisfaction and fullness, and
greatly improves our self-esteem. Our mind,
which is under the influence of an old program,
must be left in no doubt that "I", the original
personality, no longer wants to go down that old
road. We must have the strong determination to
create a new thought pattern; this will also be
recorded on our memory bank. This new register
will help us to avoid taking up the old habits
the next time something similar happens. For a
period of time the two thought patterns, the old
and the new, will exist alongside each other. To
achieve a long-lasting transformation, we should
not suppress our mind and immediately eliminate
all the habits or tendencies to which the mind
has become accustomed to. If we do this, the
mind will begin to cry and make a fuss, and
finally, the moment we lower our guard and stop
paying attention, the old habits will emerge
again and drag our mind towards automatic
thoughts and actions so that, almost without us
realizing, we are once again immersed in our old
way of thinking and doing.
We have an alternative: creating thoughts of a
greater quality that emerge from a new
conscience. In this way, thanks to these
positive thoughts, full of love, harmony and
creativity, the mind will start to cleanse
itself, replacing the old habits and negative
tendencies in a totally natural way. The
positive thought that preceded the positive
action is still conscious, but the more we
repeat the positive action the less conscious we
are of the thought that created it. The time
comes when we don't know why we are doing
whatever we are doing: it has become a positive
habit.
Message for the day
The one who is responsible is the one who is
always light.
Projection:
To be responsible means to do everything with
the best of one's ability. It comes with the
recognition and the understanding of the
importance of the task. No action is wasted, but
everything meaningfully connects to the
fulfillment of the task. So there are not even
ordinary actions, but only those that are
meaningful.
Solution:
When I take up every task that I need to do with
full responsibility, I am able to give my best.
Then I will be able to be light having done my
task well and in time. There is never the
pressure of work, but there is plenty of time
for the self and for others. I also find my
inner resources being used to the fullest
extent.
