To be a leader is to lead by example keeping a watch on every action.

Message for the day 21-10-2015 Expression: When someone is clicking a photograph or recording a video of us, there is care taken about every action of ours. We make sure we are able to portray our best. In life too, if we have this consciousness, that I am being watched and I am a role model to everyone, I will be able to set the right example for others.  Experience: Today I will check my actions. I will do at least one thing today that can be as an example for others to follow. For example, when someone shouts or doesn't behave well, I will smile and have a thought of good wish for them.  Soul Sustenance 21-10-2015 Be The Change That God Wants To See (Part 2) Whenever you perform any action or speak a few words or even create a thought, ask yourself, will this thought, word or action be liked by God or not? Then create the thought or speak the word or perform the action. It’s as if God is like a role model whom I have to follow and keep in mind in the complete day. This can be called as following the footsteps of God. Such a person’s life is then filled with a lot of praise from people around them. Their words, actions and personality are a source of inspiration for others and by making God a role model for themselves; they become role models for others. God fills such clean souls with specialties that help in revealing God to the whole world and bringing people close to God. Other people will come close to God but souls who are like God in their actions become the mediums for bringing them close. Remember, initially people may find it difficult to come close to God because they are in awe of Him but souls who are already close to God and to whom God has revealed Himself completely, will through their similarity in qualities with God, show them the way. This is not something to be proud of, but it is a bond of pure love with other souls and our duty to bring the lost ones and tie them in an eternal relationship with their spiritual parent - the Supreme and make sure that they not only experience love and joy from Him but also go on to share that love and joy with others. Wow – that’s a beautiful feeling of the heart when one is able to bring someone close to God, who is the spiritual parent of humanity and wants to see the whole world family united by the thread of His love. So, whenever you look at someone, whom you meet, remind yourself that you have a duty towards that person, which has been given to you by God of making the other person an extremely close companion of God. That is the most beautiful bond of many lifetimes and something which every human being has longed for many times in the journey of birth and rebirth. (To be continued tomorrow ...)
