Spiritual Wealth
I strongly believe that every citizen of
this country must take up a cause. This is the only way we are going to wake up
to those around us and their needs. Not only that, we also start waking up to
our own abundance which, sadly, we don't ever understand because we are always
looking to acquire the trivia we don't possess because someone ekse has it.
If we can just do this exercise : put down
what we have on one side and what we want on the other . Just examine how many
things that we want are really worth desiring. And examine the worth of what we
already have.
Strangely enough, we never ask for : god,
give me more goodness, more generosity, more compassion for those around me.
Or, please help me be honest and simple in my relationships.
We ask for more of what money can buy. More
power. More fame. People lining up to praise you to the skies for what you
possess. Gautam Buddha left all the pomp and glory , and years later, emerged
as the most glorious of humans.
The moral : Only in letting go do we find
spiritual wealth and glory.

State of confusion
Very often, we are not sure of ourselves. A
state of confusion , perhaps. Be clear in your intentions. WHY you are doing
what you are doing. Very often, we do things grudgingly and are not happy doing
them. This is going against one’s real self. There really isn’t any need.
Honesty to ourselves is most important. Keeps the head and heart clear.
At some stage, all of us will realise that
after going around gaining many experiences , we ultimately come back to
ourselves. And if we don’t, then we have a long way to travel in our journey.

Changes
The art of life is a constant readjustment
to our surroundings.
— Kakuzo Okakaura
You must welcome change as the rule but not
as your ruler - Because things do not change; we change as the change is for a
cause. Do you know that it’s only after you’ve stepped outside your comfort
zone that you begin to change, grow, and transform.
Change is often uncomfortable, but always
inevitable. Life has a way of dodging our best-laid plans, so it’s important to
learn how to adapt and roll with the curves we’re thrown.
Life is a series of natural and spontaneous
changes. Don't resist them; that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality.
Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like.
It is not the strongest or the most
intelligent who will survive but those who can best manage change.
