TRust Yourself.:Try once more

 TRust Yourself.:Try once more 

There are n no. of ways of doing  things.

Adopt new ways

This way ,more experienced we become.

And are able to develop trust in ourselves.

little risk

Yes!!

In doing anything new,if risk would not be there then why would it be called trust.

Our Life is all based on our trust.

Life moves forward,life flows,life progresses when we trust .

Do not fear failure
or slack doing our karma

thinking it to be a waste
or
thinking too much about its outcome.

Your activity ,
your few simple words ,
your positive attitude,
your small little gestures /signals for changing any situation or person

Can create wonders.

So,Always be willing to put in your best wherever we you are.
Karma needs to be done anyways.

No one can escape it
then why not  make self as sensible & take measured intelligent steps,

Learning from our past trials
& trying doing something new this time
for a new favourable outcome of your choice.

 Key lies in:-

Seeing glass half filled,
Looking for solutions.
Looking for beauty/benefit/goodness in all that happens.

3 thoughts to heal a relationship 

Mind Power & Positive thinking.

Think right No matter what

Activating Inner Powers

Take mind off problems.

Lead by Example

To be a leader is to lead by example keeping a watch on every action.

Expression: When someone is clicking a photograph or recording a video of us, there is care taken about every action of ours. We make sure we are able to portray our best. In life too, if we have this consciousness, that I am being watched and I am a role model to everyone, I will be able to set the right example for others.

Experience: Today I will check my actions. I will do at least one thing today that can be as an example for others to follow. For example, when someone shouts or doesn't behave well, I will smile and have a thought of good wish for them

All We Need Is Love

 

***All We Need Is Love***

Everyone looks outside for everything, including love. Love is all that everyone wants. Their purpose in life is love; to love someone, to be loved, to love their car, to love their dog, to love their garden etc. But all these types of love are perishable and are destined to fade away. The love we really want is within us all the time. When we feel love, where is the love coming from? It is within us, that’s because we are love. So I need to sit in silence and get to know myself again, because when I get to know my true self I will find out that I am love. I don’t need to look for it outside. I have an imperishable supply of the sweetest love possible within me

Handling other people's mistakes

 ***How do you handle other people's mistakes?***

The next time you notice someone making mistakes, steer away from being critical. 

If it's appropriate, then offer constructive feedback. Remind yourself that everyone makes mistakes. 

Be more understanding and supportive of others in your attitude and words.

You have a choice.

 

***What are you choosing?***

You know the quote:

"Sow an intention and reap a thought
Sow a thought and reap an action
Sow an action and reap a habit
Sow a habit and reap a DESTINY"

By understanding the process, you realize how the choices you make influence your destiny.

The power lies in the realization, that you have a choice.

Art of getting along well

*** The art of getting along well with others is to create harmony. ***

Expression: To be good to people who are good to us is very easy. But the real beauty of life lies in knowing how to get along well with one and all. That means, I need to know how to empower my interactions so that I am able to get along well even with someone who is not so good to us. Just like notes of music which are different, I need to understand that everyone is different and I need to create beautiful music even in the worst conditions. 

Experience: Today I will see what I can do to get along well with one person whom I wasn't comfortable with. It could be some quality that I need to work on. It could be assertiveness or love or any other quality which will help me get along well with the person.

Ego Destroys Love

 

Ego Destroys Love

The difficulty with ego is that it is deeply concealed. Most of us don’t even know we have it. Ego destroys love. It destroys the ability to learn, so there is no more give and take. No more love. We go through many kinds of situations all day long so we should make sure we don’t stop exchanging love. Ego can be overcome by developing humility. If we don't know how to bow love finishes.

Wisdom

 

Wisdom

The essence of wisdom is using what we know and confessing to what we do not know.

Putting others forward

Your generosity in putting others forward will automatically place you in front.

Contemplation: When you say 'you first' instead of 'I first' you will be placed forward. For having done the selfless service of putting others forward and encouraging them, you will get plenty of blessings. This will take you forward very quickly.

Application: When there is a conflict with someone, become generous. Instead of expecting the other person to understand you and do according to what you want, listen to what he is saying. When you give a chance in this way you will move forward very quickly

Happiness

 

Happiness

I open my eyes to the wonder of being. Delighted in the way things turn out, amazed at the beauty of it all.  I am happy.

Love makes Tolerating easy

 

When there is love, you can tolerate easily.

Thought to Ponder: Love makes you free from expectations, which enables you to accept people as they are. You can then go within yourself and discover your own strengths. You will automatically be a giver in all situations and you can tolerate very easily.

Point to Practice: Think of one person in whom you were not able to tolerate some quality. Now tell yourself that just as a mother accepts her child even with weaknesses, you will accept this person as he is. When you change your attitude towards that person you can be tolerant

Quality of Thoughts

Quality of Thoughts

An enlightened person understands that there is nothing to be gained by thinking about others. Pure thoughts and feelings will do all the work. There is no need to think any further. The quality of your thoughts will affect your spiritual endeavour. So keep checking them. If you don't, then at some point your mode of thinking will become quite ordinary, no longer spiritual. The sign of this is that your mind begins to; race and you start reacting sensitively to little things. You become vulnerable not just to the opinions of others but even to your own limited way of understanding. Thoughts can be your best friend or your worst enemy.

Postpone worrying

 To pass with honor is to enjoy the journey of life.

Thought to Ponder:  Just passing through a situation is nothing great. Even the most difficult situation has to end some day. But the one who makes effort and is prepared beforehand, passes through the situation with his head held high. It is like traveling in air conditioned class, that means I am comfortable. The journey is as important as the destination.

Point to Practice: Today I will sail through the day with the right consciousness. In all that happens through the day, I will keep my mind happy and comfortable. Even if things go wrong, I will not let anything go wrong inside. I will resolve what comes my way and if I can't, just for today I will make sure I'll postpone worrying about it for tomorrow.

Experience Narration:Being Self reliant

Experience Narration

Being Self reliant

• They try to work according to their high principles in life.
• They believe in being accurate/perfect,prefers to do their work on their own.
• Have less but  quality  relations.They fulfill them  with full honesty.
• Speaks Only necessary things.
• Don't find any valid reason to talk uselessly Without any reason.
• They have a unique personality of their own,you can see them from far.
• Speak their heart out only to whom they trust.

Inner power

Be Aware of two things: our own power to remain emotionally strong, and the power other people have over us. 

Today we are unhappy largely because of giving away our inner power to them, and then waiting for people to give us peace and happiness.

Blessings ourselves & others

We often go to other people to seek blessings. But we have the power to bless ourselves and our loved ones by creating pure, high-vibration thoughts daily. Blessings increase soul power, enabling us to give our best and experience success.

Empowerment through Power of Silence

 "I am a POWERFUL BEING.

I empower souls, not control them.

I remain stable in their behaviour... radiate respect.

I send vibrations to them of what I feel

Is right and beneficial for them...using very few words.”

I experiment with silent communication & create miracles."

Caring Soul

 "I am a CARING SOUL

Each of us is getting as per our karma

None gets less or more than they deserve.

Co-operation, not competition is my nature.

I naturally care for people

I share everything I know

I'm happy when others achieve

I focus on inner success, not only achievements."

Overcoming and changing a situation

The thoughts we create decide our destiny. Creating the right thoughts when faced with a challenge will not just help us overcome it, but also change the situation. Using this power is emotionally liberating.

Free from Gossip

 If we see a weakness or

Wrong habit in someone, let’s

Meditate for them,

Pray for them,

Send Blessings to them,

Instead of Gossiping about them.

Gossip will deplete them and us.

Blessings will create miracles.

Early morning thoughts

Early morning thoughts

The thoughts that we create early morning lay the foundation for thoughts during the day. Ensure that your first thought is elevated, by wishing 'Good Morning' to God, so that your mind gets connected to the Highest vibration.

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.

Emotional Well being

 

Emotional Well being

👉 Being emotional is NOT WRONG but expressing appropriate emotion in appropriate situation is important.

👉 *Self Observation* of own reactions is emotional intelligence.

👉 *Empathy* is understanding others' feelings and emotions which is directly proportional to emotional intelligence.

👉 Emotional well being keeps you contented, happy, enthusiastic, harmonious and self confident which in turn builds your inner resilience.

*Tools to build emotional well-being:*

— remain in present

— fully attentive to the present task

— pranayam

— visualisation of beautiful scenes

— positive self talk

— programming of mind

— GRATITUDE

— Appreciation

— ACTS of kindness

— SOS technique - *stop, observe and steer*

— SELF CARE- give time to self; this is not being selfish.

— INTROVERTEDNESS

— Detached observer

— Trusteeship

— EQUALITY

— Discipline in life

— Meditation

Resilience

 

Resilience is the process and outcome of successfully adapting to difficult or challenging life experiences, especially through mental, emotional, and behavioral flexibility and adjustment to external and internal demands.

cognitive abilities of Brain

What are cognitive abilities and skills, and can we boost them?

Cognition has to do with how a person understands the world and acts in it. 

It is the set of mental abilities or processes that are part of nearly every human action while we are awake.

Cognitive abilities are brain-based skills we need to carry out any task from the simplest to the most complex. 

They have more to do with the mechanisms of how we learn, remember, problem-solve, and pay attention, rather than with any actual knowledge. 

For instance, answering the telephone involves perception (hearing the ring tone), decision taking (answering or not), motor skill (lifting the receiver), language skills (talking and understanding language), social skills (interpreting tone of voice and interacting properly with another human being).

Beauty of character

"I would rather be adorned by beauty of character than jewels. Jewels are the gifts of fortune, while character comes from within."

Excellence

Excellence is enhancing your own abilities and competing with yourself. It is about becoming passionate and enthusiastic about your work and displaying the highest of standards at all times.

Foundation of wisdom

Foundation of wisdom

The attributes of good character spring from the acceptance in thought and deed of an abiding reverence for the Almighty, which is the foundation of wisdom.

Respect for the Lord is the beginning of knowledge."

Self Mastery & Controlling your Passions

 Self Mastery & Controlling your Passions

All your scholarship, all your study of Shakespeare and Wordsworth would be in vain, if at the same time you do not build your character, and attain mastery over your thoughts and action,” wrote M K Gandhi. “When you have attained self-mastery and learnt to control your passions, you will not utter words of despair. You cannot give your hearts and profess poverty of action. To give one's heart is to give all. You must, to start with, have hearts to give. And this you can do if you will cultivate them."

Belief in divine goodness

Belief in divine goodness

Firm faith and belief in divine goodness does bring exceeding peace, which results in making one fearless and bold. A person of character is honest, because he is not afraid, and can afford even to incur the ill will and enmity of others, in the interest of justice, fair play and honesty. A man of character will never harbour thoughts of violence and his action at all times will be prompted by ideas of peace and non-violence.

Religion of God loVers

Religion of  God loVers

Religion is misunderstood to mean only dogmas, doctrines, books and rituals. And in this sense, there is more of religion today, than ever before. We have built walls of separation around ourselves. We have turned our back on the larger picture and we tend to get embroiled in narrow situations, engaging in violence and brutality.  In the name of religion, we are fighting with our fellowmen rather than bonding together in positive ways.

Human-created differences such as caste, creed and religion can be removed by only one means, by love for God. Those who love God do not belong to any particular caste, creed or religion.

Rise above our baser instincts.

Give up lust and rise above our baser instincts.

NeVer quarrel over religion

 Never quarrel about religion. All quarrels and disputations concerning religion simply show that spirituality is not present. Religious quarrels are always over the husks. When purity, when spirituality goes, leaving the soul dry, quarrels begin.” Talking about spirituality, it is said“Each soul is potentially divine. The goal of life is to manifest the divinity within. Do this either through work or worship, psychic control or philosophy, by one or more or all these, and be free. This is the whole of religion. Doctrines, dogmas, rituals, books, temples and forms are but secondary details.”

Teachings of religion

 Every religion teaches us :-

To rise above baser nature through practice of sense control and sacrifice;

To be humane by increasing the compassion and brotherhood quotients 

And strive to become divine by manifesting love and experiencing oneness with the whole universe.

Eternal facTor:Love

Unable to communicate with our fellow-beings, we are trapped in the vicious circle of desire, struggle, jealousy, greed and misery. We have created walls of fear and hatred because of the psyche of separation, on the basis of certain physical or social factors like language and skin colour. By allegiance to a particular religion or “ism”, we have digressed from the very purpose of religion, which is to strengthen universal bonding and establish harmony. Faith in all these temporary things have robbed us of that eternal factor, love.

HELPING OTHERS: THE PURPOSE OF LIFE

 HELPING OTHERS: THE PURPOSE OF LIFE

Happiness begins from the moment you do something for others. Those who consistently help others, are happy, and do not come across any obstacles in their lives. 

The purpose of life is to serve others. However, when doing so, you should not expect something in return; your intention should be to lessen other people’s misery.

 “Service to others should be sincere and done from the heart; only then it is fruitful.” 

Do any trees eat their own fruit? No.

This teaches us that human beings should not only use their mind, body and speech for themselves, but also to serve others. When you do this, nature in turn will reward you.

Your constant inner intent should be towards helping others. If you are unable to do so for any reason, you can also make sure that you do not hurt anyone. This is an indirect way to help those around you.

Life is meant for practicing benevolence

Life is meant for practicing Benevolence

Life is meant for practicing benevolence and serving others. The deepest science behind this is that when one uses his mind, speech and body for serving others, he will have everything. 

What if you were to charge a fee for your services?

 It would create difficulties.They charge a fee in the courthouses. When they charge for their services, the laws of benevolence towards others are not applicable for them.

But a person has to make a living, surely.

Do not think about your daily needs at all. You will not encounter any obstacles in your life if you Help Others in any way. 

People do not understand the science behind this. 

When a person begins to serve others with only half the understanding, he is rewarded with a contrary result and, therefore, he loses faith in serving others. 

If one were to serve others now (in this lifetime), he will reap the rewards of that service within two or three lifetimes. This is the very 'Science'.

liberation superior than the path of service to humanity

How is the path to liberation superior than the path of service to humanity? 

If you ask a person who serves humanity what he is, he would tell you that he is a humanitarian.


So to say, 'I am a humanitarian and I Help Others,' is egoism, but if I ask this man here who he is, he would tell you that, 'For the world I am 'Chandubhai,' (Name of a person) and, in fact, 'I am a pure Soul." To say this, is the absence of ego.

The ego of a humanitarian is for a good cause, but it is ego nevertheless.

If one's ego is for a bad deed, he would be called a devil! 

And if the ego was for a good cause, then he would be called a divine person. 

Ego is ego. 

Ego makes one wander aimlessly, life after life. A person can experience liberation, right here, the moment his ego is gone.

To Know 'Who am I' is the Ultimate Religion

Making life simple and ideal

making his life simple and ideal?

Maintain an obliging nature. , your life will become ideal and harmonious (satvik)
Continue to be obliging and Help Others in any way that you can.
Use your mind, speech, body and Soul (worldly self) for others. Then you experience ever lasting happiness.

Religion begins with an obliging nature.

Do not do anything for yourself. When you do for others, you will not have to do anything for yourself.

1) A person whose intentions are to serve others will be rewarded with worldly happiness;

the Self cannot be attained through serving others. Until one attains the Self, one should maintain an obliging nature.

2)If you spend for the welfare of others, it will help you in your future life.

3)Nature's law is such that if you give the fruits of your own efforts to others, nature will take care of you.

4)What is the nature of the worldly life? God resides in every living being and if you hurt anyone, even in the slightest degree, you violate your moral duty, your religion (dharma,)

WHY TO HELP OTHERS ?

WHY TO HELP OTHERS ?

Why should we help  or serve people .


You will not incur any loss or experience any obstacles in life if it is spent serving and obliging others. All your wishes will be fulfilled providing you remain free from interference and restlessness, 

So be obliging. If you are going somewhere, ask people how can I help you, 

Someone may tell you that they don't trust you, so in that case, ask for their forgiveness. 

Those who do trust you, be sure to help them.

I am telling you this because even as a young man I had an obliging nature. At the age of twenty-five my friends used to call me a 'superhuman.'

Who do you call a human?

A human is one that gives and takes equally. He will give happiness to those who make him happy and bestow misery upon those who cause him misery. 

This kind of dealing is a characteristic of a human being.


Those who take away happiness of others go into the animal form in the next life. 

Those who give happiness and take happiness will remain as humans. 

Those who give away their own happiness to others are superhuman and will be born as celestial beings.

KEEP STRONG INTENTIONS TO HELP PEOPLE

 KEEP STRONG INTENTIONS TO HELP PEOPLE

Questioner:  I want to help others, but I do not have enough money to help. Please advice.

Enlightened soul: Do any of the fruit trees eat their own fruits? No. These trees teach human beings to give their fruits to others. When you do this, nature in turn will reward you. The Neem tree is very bitter, yet people grow it because of its many benefits; otherwise, they would uproot it. It is beneficial in many ways: it is cooling to the body, it has medicinal value and its extracts have healing properties. In Satyug (past time cycle characterized by unity in thoughts, speech and acts), people strived only to make others happy. They would be constantly thinking of ways to oblige others.

More important than a person's external actions of obliging others are his internal intents (bhaav) to help. This intention should always be present. If you have the money, your intention should be to use it to lessen someone else's misery. If you have such knowledge, use it to explain things to people to alleviate their misery. Help Others with whatever assets you have. If you cannot do this, at least maintain an obliging nature. What is an obliging nature? It is to Help Others.

Your nature would be beautiful if you maintained an obliging nature. Simply giving away money is not considered an obliging nature. Whether you have money to give away or not, your intentions should be to Help Others. You should at least have intentions to help those who come to you. To donate money or not depends on your ability to do so.

The Gateway to Eternal Happiness

 Self Realization – The Gateway to Eternal Happiness

The true Self is an abode of infinite bliss, yet you are looking for happiness in temporary things! Until you realize who you really are, everything proves to be transient and temporary. When you realize the Self(Self Realization), you attain eternal happiness

WHAT IS SERVICE TO SELF ?

 WHAT IS SERVICE TO SELF ?

Questioner: What do you mean by Service to Self ? Can you please explain ?

Enlightened soul: There are only two kinds of religion (dharma). One is service to the world and the other is service to the Self. The service to the Self falls under the 'home department,' and those who perform worldly service will get worldly happiness and material wealth. Where neither is to be found, there exist only social lectures which can dangerously delude and intoxicate (keyf) the ego of a person. Wherever there is any kind of a worldly service, there exists dharma. If you cannot provide service for the world, then do the service to your own Self. The service to one's own Self is higher than the service to the world, because the one who serves his Self does not hurt anyone!

Questioner: But surely a person has to have this realization?
Enlightened soul:That realization is not easy.

Questioner: How can it be acquired?

Enlightened soul: You have to ask a Gnani Purush, 'Sir, are you doing service for the world or are you serving your Self?' He will reply, 'I am serving the Self only!' Then you have to request, 'Please show me that way.' 

The Signs of Service to the Self (Atma) 

Questioner: What are the signs of the service to one's Self?

 Enlightened soul: The primary sign, prerequisite, is to not hurt any living being. Everything falls under this main quality. This includes celibacy (brahmacharya). Non-celibacy is tantamount to hurting someone. Even in consensual sex, millions of potentially living beings (jivas) die in the process. This is the same as willfully hurting others. With such non-celibacy (abrahmacharya), service to others ceases. Other signs (lakshan) of service to the Self are that one does not lie, steal, commit violence or hoard money. Hoarding money and other material things is a kind of violence (himsa). It hurts others. Everything is encompassed in this.

Questioner: What are the other signs (lakshan) of service to the Self? When can one say that he is doing service to the Self?

Enlightened soul: The one who serves the Self does not hurt anyone even when others hurt him. Not only that, he will not wish them ill. On the contrary, he will bless the person who hurts him. In the service to the Self, even when a person yells abusively at you, you will not be affected. You simply have to 'see' what you are doing. The other person may continue to talk like a radio, but You simply have to 'see' that 'the radio is blaring.'

HOW TO HELP PEOPLE ?

 HOW TO HELP PEOPLE ?

Questioner: Does it help to 'see' (do darshan of) God within those who we are serving? Will that give exact and good results?

Enlightened soul: A person would not become involved in serving mankind once he has had a vision (darshan) of God because having had such a vision, he would not leave God alone. To see and experience God, people offer service to others. Service to others should be sincere and done from the heart; only then it is fruitful. When a person acquires fame and prestige for his service to others, it can create a lot of difficulties for him. When service to people is done without any expectations of recognition, then it is real. Prestige may indeed come, but one should not have any expectations and desire for it.



Generally, people are not inclined to serve others, but within them lay the need and the greed for fame and recognition; this is what drives them to do so. The one whose services for others are true and pure is the one who is non-acquisitive (aparigrahi). Such a one has no desire or need for anything. On the whole, people give service to others with expectations and subtle beggary and greed for fame, recognition and an expectation of position of power down the road. When one's intentions are devious, external difficulties will arise. When one becomes free from beggary and expectations, everything works out. On the one hand, people want to possess as much as they can (parigraha), and on the other, they want to Help Others. How can the two together be possible?
