To bring knowledge into practice is to ensure success.

Projection: Most of the times, theory and practice become two different things in our lives. We know a lot of things, but we do not bring that into our practical lives. We only tend to talk about it to those around. So our valuable thoughts are wasted, creating a habit of wastage.

Solution: I have to make effort for myself. I need to start applying into practice what is good and worthy. The first step is to understand. Having understood I need to sustain these thoughts by bringing them to action. Not only will my life will be enriched, but also will there be power in my every thought.

Overcoming The Loss/Separation Of A Loved One (cont.)

How quickly could a person get over the loss of a loved one and begin to feel fine? We have the capacity to do it the same day or the next day. But our beliefs and conditioning, our attachments and lack of will and inner capacity, prevent us from getting better rapidly and feeling fine.

Independent of the kind of mourning that you have to go through, it is a matter of preventing your memories from invading your spirit, your mind and your heart. Circumscribe them, limit them and put them in their place: in the past. Yesterday has already passed.

On the level of action, now, in the present, use your time, your talents and your thoughts for creative tasks. Help your friends and other close ones. It will help you to come out of your aloneness and to relate. Share, dialogue and involve yourself in serving.

With respect to your accumulated experiences, meditate to gain mastery in managing your memories. Clean out the cupboards of your inner self, so that the stored memories do not cause upsets, interference or suffering in the present moment. Meditate to accept and let go.

Give thanks to the past. Learn from it. But now let go and free yourself. Live this moment in wholeness. It depends on you to create the right thought for it to be like that.

To look at specialities is to help change people for the better.

To look at specialities is to help change people for the better.

Projection: When we see some negative trait in someone, we tend to think about it and talk about it too. When we talk about this to others, we are increasing further negativity in ourselves and others too. To talk negatively also makes us lose our energy. And there is no improvement in that person.

Solution: Instead of focusing the mind on something negative, I need to focus on something special about that person. A long time of practice of looking at specialities gives me the power to help the other person to be free from his weaknesses too. I am then free of negativity in my own mind and do not spread any negativity to others too.

Determination in thoughts disperse the clouds of negative situations

----------------------------------------------------------
Message for the day 24-02-2011
----------------------------------------------------------
Determination in thoughts disperse the clouds of negative situations.

Projection: There are a lot of negative situations that come our way, as we are moving along. During the difficult phase we tend to experience a lot of negativity within too, either in the form of fear, anger or pain. At that time the difficulty seems very big and seems to last forever.

Solution: I need to recognize the fact that whatever difficulties I face are like passing clouds. These clouds come at their time and fade away at their time too. I need to develop the determination to work on my problems with this understanding. I will then be able to face the situation with ease.

To be flexible is to enjoy everything that life brings.

----------------------------------------------------------
Message for the day 23-02-2011
----------------------------------------------------------
To be flexible is to enjoy everything that life brings.

Projection: When we plan perfectly for the day ahead, we sometimes find that we are not able to implement all that we had planned for. Things seem to be coming up unexpectedly spoiling everything for us. We are then not able to be happy with what is happening and so find it difficult to do our best or what is required to be done.

Solution: It is as important to be flexible in my thoughts as it is to be particular about my daily schedule. Flexibility allows me to accommodate the unforeseen situations that come up my way and enables me to make the best use of everything. And so I enjoy everything that comes my way.

Experiencing The Virtue Of Co-operation At Your Workplace Or Home

True non-violence is not to hurt others even through words.

----------------------------------------------------------
Message for the day 22-02-2011
----------------------------------------------------------
True non-violence is not to hurt others even through words.

Projection: Normally we pay a lot of attention not to hurt people physically but sometimes hurt others through our words. This creates negativity in others which in turn affects us negatively too. Our work too is effected by these kind of words.

Solution: In order to bring true non-violence in our lives, it is equally important to pay special attention to our words too. The basis of words that don't hurt others are positive thoughts-thoughts based on good wishes and benevolent feelings for others.

To understand the true cause of one's own weakness is to get the power to overcome it.

----------------------------------------------------------
Message for the day 21-02-2011
----------------------------------------------------------
To understand the true cause of one's own weakness is to get the power to overcome it.

Projection: We do recognise our weaknesses and make effort to overcome them. But inspite of our best efforts, we sometimes do not find success as the weaknesses keep coming back again and again. This is because we have not worked at the level of the roots to remove the weaknesses.

Solution: Before I try to remove any weakness that is working within me, I need to understand the cause of that weakness. For this I need to question myself to see why that weakness is present in my life and what is lacking within me. Once I find the cause I need to make effort to fill myself with the right virtue.

Meditation To Restore Inner Freedom

To have commitment for self-progress is to be a giver.

----------------------------------------------------------
Message for the day 20-02-2011
----------------------------------------------------------
To have commitment for self-progress is to be a giver.

Projection: Although we do have a lot in our lives, we have expectations from situations and people around us. We constantly think of what we have to get from them. Such expectations make us dependent on others for self-progress. Then we find ourselves experiencing progress only when things are going right or when people are cooperative.

Solution: Instead of thinking about what I want to get, I need to pay more attention to what I have, so that I can do my best using these resources to acquire what I want. Thus I will experience constant progress in my life, whether the situations are positive in my life or not.
