Create Vision
Never believe anyone
who says we cannot change. Vision is one of the
secrets of personal transformation. We are all
artists, our mind is the arena of creation and
vision is what we are constantly creating. What
is your vision of yourself today – patient,
relaxed, positive or tense, tight and negative?
What do you prefer? So be creative – what does
patience look like, feel like, what are you
doing that is different when you are patient and
you are expressing your power to …wait? Always
start with vision not action. See it and you
will be it. Be it and you will do it. We don’t
‘get a life’ as some would cynically tell us –
we create our life.
Do everything
Properly
Even the smallest task that we do can become
special when we
understand why we are doing it. It then enables
us to have respect
for whatever we do. When we work with this
respect we'll
automatically do the best. We need to check what
our feelings are in
all the tasks that we are involved in throughout
the day. In case we
find any task as unimportant, it is better we
don't do it. And every
task we do, we need to do it with love. Let us
also tell ourselves at
the beginning of the day that today we will take
the time to do
everything properly.
The Flight Of
Harmony
There are two faces to one coin; a person who
wishes to live fully as a human being needs to
understand that the existence of one's unique
individuality has to be acknowledged, as well as
the existence of the group or collective.
One cannot exist without the other. Individuals
who are developing spiritually feel a personal
sense of value. They clearly recognize their
uniqueness and have the feeling that there is
the freedom to be whatever they choose to be. At
the same time, their sense of personal
independence allows them to come close to others
and work with them. They do not have selfish
independence. They get close to others because
they have found fulfillment in their own self.
Someone who has truly found the value of the
self above and beyond labels, name, fame and
approval can effectively cooperate within the
collective or group and interact appropriately.
Such people not only feel themselves to be a
part of the whole but, even more importantly,
the group or collective feels them to be a part
of the whole.
In nature, when birds have to fly to a warmer
climate in winter, they flock together and start
their journey as a group. The success of the
journey depends on the group: if an individual
bird does not join the group, it cannot reach
the destination on its own. Birds fly in a
particular formation, with an appropriate space
between them as they fly. If they fly too close
to each other, their wings get entangled; they
lose their balance and fall. If they remain too
far from each other, the formation cannot be
created properly, and they are not able to ride
the currents of air, which help to propel them
in their flight. Furthermore, the leader of the
formation does not remain the leader throughout
the whole flight, but moves back and allows
another to take its place. This repositioning
continues throughout the flight until the
destination is reached, allowing individual
birds to contribute to the success of the
journey.
The reality of life is that we are individuals
within a collective whole. Just like the birds,
we are all a part of an unlimited Flight of
Harmony.
Soul Sustenance
Tuning
The Mind, Intellect And Personality (Sanskars)
The soul, is made up of three faculties - the
mind, intellect and personality (sanskars).
In order to tune these to the highest degree of
subtlety, precision and efficiency; we need to
connect with the Supreme Soul, who is also a
soul, just like us, but has a perfect mind and
intellect along with perfect sanskars:
Mind - The Supreme Being or God is an
embodiment of positivity – negative and waste do
not find a place in his mind.
Intellect - He is also the purest living
energy in the entire universe – he is the
innocent Lord; a being of conscious light, who
has never taken a body and thus never
experienced the five vices – lust, anger, greed,
ego and attachment.
Sanskars - God is the ocean of the
basic virtues of the soul and of humanity –
peace, love, bliss, joy, power and purity.
By this connection, gradually over a period of
time, our mind, intellect and sanskars
begin to become like his – mind becomes full of
positivity; intellect begins to become pure and
is able to take correct decisions so that right
karmas are performed and sanskars
become full of the virtues mentioned above.
Message for the
day
The one with
humility is the one who can be creative.
Projection:
Creativity comes to the
extent that the intellect is humble. Such an
intellect is able to create something new.
Because humility is a form of love, it brings
the enthusiasm for creativity and the ability to
bring newness in everything that is done.
Solution:
Humility gives me an experience
of being a master, of being powerful. This power
comes from the experience of being a constant
learner, because I have no ego of what I already
have. This mastery makes me creative, making me
bring newness in every thing I do.
