13.28 And when a man sees that the God in himself is the same God in all that is, he hurts not himself by hurting others: then he goes indeed to the highest Path. – The Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 13)
our thoughts
We dwell in our thoughts. We dwell in our minds. And therefore we dwell in the quality of mind that we create or allow to be created in our minds. Whenever we have thoughts that aren’t wholesome and are negative we experience their vibrations. So by choosing our thoughts we choose the state of mind that we experience. All day.
god’s fabric
God’s fabric makes up everything. God’s presence makes residence in all hearts. God experiences himself through us. God becomes many, from one, through us. We cannot, for long, fight God in the person of the other. We cannot think ill of or harm anyone else without harming self. So whether we create internal hell through our thoughts or we harm self by attacking others, it’s a lose-lose situation. Let’s win-win instead, create love in self and provide loving service. We’re empowered to create a piece of heaven wherever we find self.
