Perceptions


In pursuit of unhappiness! A simple fact is that the more you pursue the need to find answers to your panic/anxiety etc., the less you can actually accomplish feeling better.

Giving energy to personal pain and suffering and concentrating on wounds just debilitates you. Because you go deeper and deeper into that negative energy.

When you actually learn how to deal with unhappiness only will you learn to be happy. Not by pushing anything away but by accepting everything and dealing with it, difficult as it may seem.

Hard times become toxic and spread to our physical bodies. How do you work when you are in the eye of the storm? Work with body sensations and meditate on this. Don’t focus on the story. Create an alchemy within yourself to transform the minus into a plus. Be ok with the suffering. Become strong and that strength gives you the way forward.

Reframe suffering as an opportunity. Change your perceptions. Only you can help yourself.

Quality of a soul

 God created humans as a motley crowd , each different and unique, with the same physical and mental software around the soul.

But that’s where it ends and creativity begins, a result of the ominous and multi pronged will power and free will.

Often, I marvel at the way minds are wired, including mine. Unless you are a mind reader or become one, the depth and complexities of each mind are sometimes deeper than the ocean and impossible to fathom. So, you revert back to yourself.

Let me atleast try to understand myself with my vast body of past lives and all the triggers that make me think and behave in a certain way.

No! What you see is certainly not who we are. We fight for equality that does not exist. So naive of us ! All mankind is not and can never be on the same level. Even equality of opportunity will always have loopholes for the very same reasons.

So, where does that leave us then ? We are left with ourselves, to look within ourselves and find that uniqueness that renders us flawless as spirits or souls if you will, beyond our physical persona.

The quality of a soul is essentially pure in every human being. The skill is in keeping our own mind body temple as clean as our souls are.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Why then are we so preoccupied with watching others and trying to fathom their journeys and what makes them tick, when we are still so unaware of what makes US tick ? Is that in any concrete way helpful to us ? The answer is “no”.

So many of us who are trying to evolve as humans must remember this. We often hit the bottom of the river of life but if we know the art of floating, we can come up, breathe and float again, each time with more skill and more awareness so as not to drown. No one can do this for us, can they ?

So, to keep peddling the boat to guide it to its destination via the best route , becomes a personal responsibility . This is where the genius in human creativity comes into the forefront and carries us through.
