Universal Energy

 Today, we see many younger people not invested in “family”. It is a reality to be accepted clinically, not emotionally, using tags like” sad” and “ungrateful”. Every change is meant to be.

As we raise our consciousness to the next level of the perception of universal expansion, we must understand that individual consciousness has to be taken more seriously than it is taken. That getting stuck in emotional patterns can be a massive roadblock to opening new vistas of understanding.

We speak of 4th and 5th dimensions without knowing what they are. These are all within us. Within our scope of realization. And possible only when we move on from our past, our emotional and physical crutches and into our higher selves to feel those higher frequencies.

Let us remind ourselves every minute that we are not our body, our mind, our senses, our emotions and work on our soul expansion. Self-gratification has to be redefined henceforth. Because only with a change of the present mindset can we move towards an expansion of awareness and consciousness to actually feel a sense of unity and integration with universal energy.

Generations

 

Duty consciousness takes care of so many potential grievances. It is sometimes better to do what you are supposed to do, mechanically, than fail to do it.

Freedom without duty consciousness is really a recipe for grief! Not for anything else but for oneself! Time and time again, I have seen that defiance to do your duty can bring in a lot of guilt later. Because we ignore some universal principles.

The “should” and “must” have a very important place in one’s quest for freedom. To do what one should do by oneself and for others is the balance we need to create in our lives.

We are all connected by invisible dots which have to link harmoniously. A tug of war of any kind can upset the equilibrium.

Each one has a role here. Nothing more. And how well we can perform is our mastery over this art before we leave the world , hopefully as a better place for future generations!

Quote of the day

 

Awareness

 If we could realize that surrendering to Ishwara and seeking his grace is the most beautiful feeling that remains through the day. Everything that each day brings, comes with his grace. Because everything is a lesson to work towards balance.

Anything that makes us happy today can turn into sorrow tomorrow. Everything changes. Once we emerge out of our dualities, we can see a third path which is THE PATH of ONE!

The oneness of all existence consciousness bliss. This state of being has to be brought into our awareness.

Frequency

Tuning into the frequency where we connect with God’s grace is the start of miracles! You start experiencing freedom from your lower self. Your worldly desires, your ego driven thoughts and actions, your wrong belief systems, your fear… all that and more. Surrendering to that supreme consciousness is not to be taken lightly. We can disbelieve anything that doesn’t suit us. But not this. Because here, you are the only loser. And you will understand this, not from mere words, but your own personal experience, if and when that happens. So, meditate and try and make it happen for yourself.

Experience

 

Today, I am This. My experiences from all lives , some of which are experienced in this life, are sacrosanct, good or bad , as both teach me lessons if I know how to learn the lessons inherent in them.

This minute, I can connect with my consciousness to understand where I am not thinking right. The past, the thoughts , the reminder of the unpleasant are all leeches which one has to pluck out and throw away, however painful the process might be for the body and the mind. Is there anyone who can like the leeches gripping you for ever ? No.

But we do have the others in leech form that are painful and agonising but we seem to revel in our pain. Very difficult to understand ! Still more difficult when they come from outside . Not that self inflicted pain is more reasonable ! Every pain is a choice and has a solution.

There is just not enough understanding and therefore, error in prioritising. It is like sitting down and waiting for the lion coming after you, to swallow you.

When “I” identifies with “me”, we are weakened by that ego which can be very destructive if we don’t watch out.

So , we need to use the power of NOW to get wise.

Quote of the day

 

Process of discovery

 

We talk so randomly about the “realities” of life, when we are not in the least aware of what is “real” and what just appears to be “real”.

Knowledge, specially ultimate knowledge about reality is accepted   Sometime piecemeal, sometimes partially and very , very rarely , completely. The latter is evidently a seeker. Others may pooh pooh the knowledge which doesn’t at all suit their comfort level.

In any case, everything is cyclical. So, you can go round and round for many births. Growth is when you break out of that cycle to explore what lies beyond.

Reality is beyond the appearance of it, which is not reality but falsity. We live within this falsity which appears to be real to us within our body and mind consciousness.

We have not explored our vastness and our life is moving towards completion each day.

The awareness has to set in for the process of discovery to kick in.

Forgive and forget

 Be generous . Forgive and forget. After all, it does not cost you anything but your ego. And that is the best and most spiritually elevated sacrifice you can make.

Vedanta teaches the reasons for doing this. Once we understand this, we understand different people’s journeys, and our own connectivity with them.

Ego just separates us from each other. And the whole purpose of our being here is lost. So, first, lose your ego identity. Which means losing the body and mind consciousness. And then focusing on our collective consciousness which runs through us all.

Purity of intention

 Our points of view create our reality , not the other way round. But we don’t take the responsibility of creating our own future. We prefer to blame the world, the power centres and everyone else. We don’t think we are important in helping create that reality which is currently ours.

What can we do to shift our gears into what kind of a world we want to live in ? We are constantly looking for that one person or people to make our world better. But only WE can make our worlds better. We just don’t get it !

Any salutary action, any small shift into the light can work as an inspiration to so many . And soon, waves of benevolence will be created. I can CHOOSE to be who I want to be. And this has absolutely nothing to do with anyone but each of us. We can influence, inspire hope and a higher consciousness in those around us. And alleviate the hopelessness around.

The thing is , the tools to heal even in tough times like these are simple. Provided we keep ourselves simple. If only we could just feel the elements outside and within us and leave all judgement there ever has been.

If we don’t start, we never reach anywhere. It is so easy to get embroiled in the trivia of this world. Let us light our lamp and then those of others with our purity of intentions. .. to light up the world.

The light of day

Routine gives us that anchor, that steadiness of mind that actually makes creativity easier. Imagine if we were in a frenzy to create something all the time! Our minds would be nothing short of yo-yos. Ideas germinate and take time to manifest.

Have you seen a write scribble, then bunch up the papers in frustration and relegate them to the garbage bin, again and again? The mind can become that garbage bin if we don’t watch out. Ideas, thoughts, millions of them might emerge and nothing might come of them.

But when the mind is steady, at least some ideas would see the light of day. Everything needs a steady base to create the required movement.

Perceptions

Every day, I observe the tendency of people to let their minds and prejudices get the better of them. If you like someone, you can even find it in your heart and your speech to defend them even if they have committed a murder. And if you DON'T like them, you will not give them even a little credit for a single good deed they may have done.

The mind plays games. It tells you "don't like these people. See how they treat you". Or, "see how wonderful this is" when it not at all good for you, e.g, befriending opportunists because you like their flattery. And you listen. Why? Do you really have a solid reason?

Actually not. You just cannot see beyond your ego at that point, YOU are not hurt. It is only your ego that makes you dance on its finger tips.

Very often, we have gone back and apologized to people after feeling wronged. Because we realized that it was wrong to feel wronged in the first place. Better sense dawns sometimes.

And when it dawns all the time is the time when you become calm and centered without swaying and swinging like a yo yo. And decide to let go and let things just BE.

We know we are all different and we should give the benefit of doubt to everyone as we give to ourselves all the time. No one is really "bad" or "good" but situations create our perceptions of these tags according to our prejudices and limited ways of thinking.

Once the mind expands and consciousness expands, we will be different as people. And towards this should our efforts be directed.

Communication

It is so true that different people get different things from any one component. Let's take social media. Some hate it. They find facebook, instagram etc. too impersonal or even invasive. Then you have those who love to make "friends" who they can be the best of themselves with safety in acquaintance. There are also those who want to connect with old friends they have lost touch with. Some feel less lonely when they communicate on a facebook.

Similarly, I do think it is possible to extract the best for oneself from every episode, every person and everything else, too. Just depends on the attitude and mental dexterity, not to mention intelligence.

If I know something is good for me, I should be able to pursue it without prejudice and recourse to any kind of cloudiness in the mind. I can't understand why anyone should judge without experience. And why I should let myself get swept away beyond my purpose and even after my need is fulfilled. I believe one can try anything new if one knows where to draw the line.
