Message for the day 15-05-2012
----------------------------------------------------------
To listen to others fully is to be able to be free from repeating mistakes. 

Projection: When there is criticism that comes one's way, it should be carefully analysed to see if there is any truth in it. If there is correction can be made accordingly. On the other hand, if others' criticism is ignored or there is a tendency to defend oneself, there cannot be any correction and mistakes are repeated. 

Solution: When I listen to others with honesty, I am able to discover even the most negligible aspect in my behaviour which I can change. So I find myself constantly improving and progressing and moving on towards success. So having brought about a change, even the criticism that comes my way stops.

Practical Exercises Of Self Transformation Through The Power Of Meditation 

Given below are some practical points for change through the power of meditation. If you have not started meditating yet, the practical benefits of meditation given below will perhaps inspire you to do so: 

Have the powerful and determined thought, "I must change myself". 

For the next few days, write down your experiences on the following topics: 

1. Write of an experience of how the power of meditation gave you mental and physical energy, so you got more work done in less the time. 

2. Write of your experience of how the power of meditation enables you to churn (think) spiritual knowledge (e.g. what is shared in each day’s “Positive Reflection”) deeply and change a situation. 

3. From your space in silence, observe other souls in a detached way and relate that to the knowledge of this drama - the game of life i.e. every soul is playing his accurate role via the physical body. I need to remain non-judgemental. Make a special effort to remain angelic all day. Speak sweetly, and only when necessary and spread your light to all around. Write down your experience. 

4. Experience how the power of meditation makes situations and problems very light. It enables me to enjoy the arts...the art of managing people, the art of leisure, of being busy etc. Write your experience.
