The power of silence can bring peace to any situation.

Message for the day 

Projection: The instruments for the power of silence are pure thoughts and pure feelings. We can give others an experience with the power of our silence. When we understand and experience the power of silence we will become more powerful. We will then be able to experience peace that will naturally spread to others too.

Solution: When I have to correct someone in any situation I first need to remind myself that words will not work but silence based on pure feelings and love will surely work. When I accept the person as he is with love I will be able to bring about a change in him. The lesser I talk the more the peace that is created.




Soul Sustenance 

Absorbing Spiritual Light (cont.) 

How many times do we hear, "Oh, he is always in a bad mood...", "It is my nature to be irritable...", He will never change..." This shows the extent to which the soul's own light has faded and been replaced by the dark curtain of negativity. Therefore it is better that we do not try to deal with each vice and defect individually. As the soul fills itself with the power of spirituality, its overall condition automatically improves.

Another significant point is that there is a deep-rooted awareness within the soul of God and His .sanskars., however much it may be covered by dirt and weakness. This is because the each soul is the child of God and being his children we inherit his .sanskars.. These .sanskars. are present in us when we start playing our part in the physical world, but gradually they fade away as we take more and more births. As these .sanskars. are brought to the surface of the consciousness, automatically our thoughts and behavior patterns change.

In modern psychology it is stated that we must express all our negative emotions and note suppress them. But the fact is that 'letting it out' leads the soul further into slavery to that emotion. Remembering that thoughts, decisions and actions are formed on the basis of .sanskars., which are deepened by repetition, the soul can only cause harm by expressing any defect or vice. On the other hand, the psychological effect of suppressing negative emotions can be quite drastic. Suppression can lead to severe personality problems, even madness or insanity. The right path is that we emerge our positive .sanskars. with the help of meditation and other self-development techniques and the negative ones automatically vanish away.
