Why We Must Be Gentle!

Leave a comment

To get closer to Truth and Right, we need a beautiful and soft heart.  – Shams Tabrizi

truth

Truth must be faced. We must know who we are and what we hide. We must recognize the beauty in others and why they’re lovable. We must embrace our divine ancestry and act accordingly…

gentle

So we must be gentle. Gentle with self and with others. Acknowledge that we’re fallible and can attempt to improve. Understand deeply what motivates others and why they might lash out in fear. We must slow down and access that beautiful soft center inside us so that we can connect it to its sibling in others…

Know, O my son, that each thing in the universe is a vessel full to the brim with wisdom and beauty. It is a drop from the river of His Beauty…  – Rumi (the untold story)

oozing with god

Everything around us and inside us is God’s handiwork. We proceed from him, live within him and go ‘back’ to him. There’s nothing that isn’t God. And that’s fantastic news!!

worries?

What should we be worrying about under these circumstances? Nothing really. Whenever we need that ‘pick me up’, we just need to remind ourselves about what’s really going on…

The One Question We Must Ask!

Leave a comment

Do you ask enough questions? Or do you settle for what you know? – Questions…

curiosity

The universe thrives on questions and curiosity. If we don’t ask the Universe doesn’t tell. Or is it that we don’t observe the answer (which is ever-present) until we’re in the perspective of asking the right question?

settling

Sometimes it’s ok to settle for what we know. But we must do so with full awareness and in faith that whatever’s going on is just what the Universe ordered! Life is always a fine balance between this and that…

A Time To Fly…

Time is swift, it races by; Opportunities are born and die… Still you wait and will not try – A bird with wings who dares not rise and fly.  – A A Milne

time

When we breathe we use time. Time slips through our fingers like water but is also ever-present like air. We get older everyday but the present moment never fades. What’s our relationship with time?

fly

What does success means to us? We must know what it is to fly. We are birds. We should fly to soaring heights. What exhilaration and sights will we experience today?

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM flying!!

Who’s The Best Guru?

Leave a comment

The Kingdom of God is within you.  – Jesus Christ

who’s the guru?

A Guru once appeared amidst the hubbub of affluent Phoenix, AZ. Never before had such a light-filled being appeared in this part of the world. Soon he was being followed by a handful of trusting devotees. Within a few months he had delivered a touching and most transformative experience to his followers. One fine day he disappeared back into the East from whence he came. But not before delivering his most pivotal message. What was this message?

message…

It’s a message that’s most needed by all of us today. Watch the touching ‘true story of a false prophet’ on Netflix, Amazon or iTunes for the answer! Or write to me!

How We Justify Self…

Leave a comment

Watch the tendency to characterize others so that we can justify our thoughts about them.  – NamasteNow!

justifying self

“He didn’t acknowledge the help I gave him, therefore I don’t have to do this new thing for him’. That’s how the logic runs in our minds. We justify our thoughts about another so that we can feel ok about our current actions towards that person. That’s a root cause to why it’s so hard to improve our relationships with people in general.

watch

Such a way of thinking is sensed by the other person and this creates a vicious cycle that dooms the relationship. Becoming aware of this tendency allows us to design our own thoughts about others. Then we can be more objective and also improve our current relationship with them.

How To Be Master Of Self!

Leave a comment

Your awareness of yourself is greater than yourself. – Guy Finley

self

Self is where we live, amidst our thoughts about us and alongside opinions of everyone and everything! We live in a maelstrom of ideas, fears, dreams and concepts. We muddle through life never entering the eye of the self-created storm.

awareness

Just becoming aware of self and our thoughts buys us a great vantage point. Suddenly we see our whole conscious self. That seeing allows us a perspective that’s not available otherwise.

Becoming self-aware is the first step towards self-mastery…
