To have trust in others is to get their cooperation.

Message for the day 

Projection: When we have faith in others, they will have faith in themselves too and this creates enthusiasm in them. This further serves to increase self-confidence in the one we are working with.

Solution: When I find that someone whom I am working with is not cooperating with me, let me make the practice of telling myself that I have complete faith in that person. Slowly I will find that person cooperating with me.




Soul Sustenance 

Qualities, Virtues And Powers 

Innate or basic characteristics are properties that are unchangeable. It's impossible to take the heat out of the sun or sweetness out of sugar. Heat and sweetness are part of the unchanging make-up of the sun and sugar respectively; they are the basic properties of each of them. In the same way, in spite of whatever I have become as a human individual, my deep basic characteristics are still the same ones that have always existed in me. It's my inner core of qualities that in fact inspires me to seek the ideal in whatever I do. The impulse to seek and to dream comes from my own store of innate attributes that is just waiting to be found and brought into practical activity.

The innate qualities of the soul are those that are the most basic: Peace, Truth, Happiness, Love, Purity, Power and Bliss. They are so basic that they themselves are the foundation of all virtues and powers. They are like primary colors and virtues and powers are secondary colors. Just as orange (a secondary color) is made of red and yellow (both primary colors) and blue is made of yellow and green, virtues such as patience, tolerance, courage, generosity etc. and powers, are obtained by mixing the basic qualities e.g.

Patience - peace, love and, power
Humility . love, peace and truth
Courage - power and truth


The aim of meditation is to emerge and enhance my qualities so that my behavior becomes full of virtues and powers.
