Realisation
As sense dawns, we see how foolish we are
sometimes ! All this feeling bad at the actions or speech of others ! You
suffer and suffer with the constant “ WHY” did this happen to ME ?
This inquiry is actually laughable ! But
only when we realise that what we are agonising about , wasting so much mind
space, is something others are not even thinking about. They have done their
bit, felt good about venting , caused hurt in the process or whatever , and
moved on. But we sit crying and lamenting over what has happened. The ego gets
badly hurt and insists on behaving like a petulant child, demanding
retaliation. Stop there !
Think ! If , in the wind, a tree branch
falls and hits you, what will you do ? Curse and blame the tree or the wind ???
You can’t ! But in case of people , we let everything stick to us ! Why ?
People act in ignorance because they really are not mature enough to know what
to do or what is right and just. And we are equally ignorant in reacting to
that ignorance ! We are on the same level.
Sooner or later, a realisation has to dawn that negative pellets are not being thrown at us but at themselves. Something is not right and unhappy within such people. Something is smouldering. Their darkness needs illumination with their own understanding.
Don’t let other people’s darkness envelop
you . That would be a grave mistake. Yes, do help anyone who needs help and
asks for it. But otherwise, step aside.

Diversity
When your consciousness expands and extends
beyond the self, it is a wonderful feeling. You see what you didn’t see before.
You hear what you couldn’t before. The same environment seems different. What
used to bother you earlier you only smile at now.
This happens when you focus on yourself and
learn to consciously look beyond the visible. Of course, you might also see
what you may not want to see. But one has to make peace with the diversity in
this world without getting affected in whatever manner. This process begins
with a higher awareness which becomes deeper and deeper as you go along.

Divine energy
One should really learn to appreciate the
souls around us. In times of crisis, help comes through unexpected quarters and
through close bonds. God loves energy being channeled. It is so amazing to feel
that. And when problems come, solutions are found and things are sorted.
It is awareness, openness to the Divine
energy that works. And you attract good people in your life. Yes, karmic blocks
are inevitable. Some curses do work but can be transcended through triggering
the Divine will and illumination.

Evidence
In the good old days, there was a saying,
"there is no smoke without fire". Today, the smoke is as fabricated
as the fire. Distorted, even baseless versions of reality are making rounds,
being magnified and creating chaos. There may not be an iota of truth but it
still becomes a popular story, the more "spicy", and the better.
Why? For one, people are empty within and
like vultures outside. Sorry! These prey on dead bodies. Humans prey on live
ones. Fanning fires, twisting facts, igniting conflicts based on caste, creed,
religion, stopping at nothing to satisfy greed... this has become the world of
the predator, the most dangerous trait among people today. You would never
guess from the outside demeanor who was out to destroy you.
Your reputation can be torn into shreds in
a minute through "evidence" completely fabricated and you couldn't
defend yourself without proof. Not a modicum of either ethics or remorse. So,
what smoke and what fire? Truth went up in smoke and flames long ago.

Disillusionment
Disillusionment is an oft used word, with
reference to people, work, educational standards etc. But this feeling of
disillusionment only stems from your expectations. If you took everything at
face value, would you still be disillusioned?
I have often written about expectations. If
you want to be free and contented, don't make the mistake of expecting, keeping
unrealistic hopes. Never fails to disappoint.
Expletives like, “I am shocked “, "how
CAN they" etc.... meaningless, because they CAN and they HAVE. Really! We
need to be composed under varied situations.
Don't expect and be happy.
