Listen to one

 “I am a POWERFUL BEING.

I withdraw from people's opinions of right & wrong.

I withdraw from their definitions of 'Normal'.


I connect to God & ask Him what is right for me

I then silence my mind to receive the answer.

I listen to my Inner Voice.


I decide what is right for me."

Our response wrt circumstances

 When we blame external situations, other people or even God for our current state of mind, we cease to take responsibility of our own creation – our thoughts, feelings, words and actions. Circumstances are only a stimulus, and response is always our creation.

My feelings/emotions wrt other people

 "I am a POWERFUL BEING.

I am the creator of my feelings

Irrespective of the stimulus

No one can hurt me

I create my every emotion

And I always have a choice

I forgive myself

By not blaming them for my hurt.

I take personal responsibility

I heal myself...I forgive myself."

Ultimate Reality

 


"For Gandhi, truth is the relative truth of truthfulness in word and deed, and the absolute truth - the Ultimate Reality. This ultimate truth is God (as God is also Truth) and morality - the moral laws and code - its basis. Ahimsa, far from meaning mere peacefulness or the absence of overt violence, is understood by Gandhi to denote active love - the pole opposite of violence, or "Himsa", in every sense. The ultimate station Gandhi assigns nonviolence stems from two main points. First, if according to the Divine Reality all life is one, then all violence committed towards another is violence towards oneself, towards the collective, whole self, and thus "self"-destructive and counter to the universal law of life, which is love. Second, Gandhi believed that ahimsa is the most powerful force in existence. Had himsa been superior to ahimsa, humankind would long ago have succeeded in destroying itself. The human race certainly could not have progressed as far as it has, even if universal justice remains far off the horizon. From both viewpoints, nonviolence or love is regarded as the highest law of humankind."

Crack the success code

 

Crack the success code

👉 Success is one thing which every person belonging to any age group aspires to.

But not all people do achieve the same. Does a successful person have a *KEY*?

Answer is - fixation of *GOALS & DISCIPLINES*.

👉 SKILLS are the need of the hour but at the same time SPIRITUAL SKILLS are very important.

👉 In challenging situations, the most common negative experience is of being *fearful*.

👉 *The success code is PAUSE*

— P is for attaining POWER & PEACE... learn the skills.

— A is for ATTENTION

— U is for Use self control, self awareness and discipline your mind.

— S is for setting a *schedule* with consistency and determination.

*SEE* yourself as an achiever of your GOAL.

— E is to ENERGISE yourself.

👉 Understand the BEING. Spiritual energy in light form (SELF) is you.

👉 Understand the true meaning of success- Soul needs success not the body.

👉 Think you are unique and NEVER COMPARE.
