Power of Positive Quotes !

Through our thoughts we are either gaining power or losing it. Positive thoughts generate power, negative ones waste it.

Explore Yourself !

There is a part of you that is perfect and pure. It is untouched by the less-than-perfect characteristics you have acquired by living in a less-than-perfect world. This part of you is a still and eternal pool making time to reach it will bring you untold benefit.

A Journey To Success!

The sign of wisdom to be able to set goals and then, having done so, to let them go. All that is required for success is a vision of the destination. The journey itself will reveal the means that will take you there.

Don't Be Bias!

Despite appearances, people may be doing the best they can. Think that no one is to blame, and humility in your attitude will enable everyone to move forward. Judge whether your thoughts, words and actions are beneficial to the scene in which you find yourself. Focusing on your own part is more useful than passing judgment on others.

Wishing Good for Everyone...!

Like sunlight, benevolence can filter into the quiet corners of panic in another person's mind and lighten the burden. Giving good wishes to people can produce a positive outcome from even the most negative situation.

A Good Navigator Overcomes Mistakes

Mistakes will not throw you off course unless you let them stop you. A good navigator keeps a sure eye on the final destination, but steers there through a series of approximations.

The World Resembles Your Hand...!

The world is like our hand and its continents like our five fingers. Each finger is different and unique. Yet it is only when they all work together that whatever we put our hand to succeeds.

Know Your Roles Of Life!

On the stage of life, be both actor and audience. Detaching yourself from the roles you play will help you get in touch with the part of you that is not an act.

Self-Confidence Helps To Meet Your Needs !

Self-confidence is to know your way around yourself so instinctively that you always have a strength to draw on. Somewhere inside, from the stillness, you can always find something to meet your need.

Negative Thinking makes you Unhappy !

To remain cheerful, learn how to cordon off areas of weakness. Once you refuse them entry into the rest of your mind, they can no longer influence you. Then you can work on them safely. Wrestling with your mind weakens you. When negative thoughts grab, a hold of you, observe them without judgement and they will loosen their grip.

True Players!

Learning and teaching are players in the same game. If either one stops, everything becomes heavy and ceases to be fun. Learning is the reward for respecting life and teaching is the fruit of experiencing life.

Nurture Your Mind ...!

A mother teaches her child with love and patience until the child learns. Be a mother and teach your mind to have positive thoughts and to let go off worries. Then when your mind most needs peace, it will obey you.

Refrain From Unwanted Thoughts !

The greatest bondage of all is waste thoughts of the mind. The power of the mind is special. Waste thoughts weaken the power of the mind. Be free from this bondage. Someone who is burdened will move slowly. One who is light, will always move with intense speed.

Satisfaction Is The Utmost Happiness!

Many believe that happiness is achieved through material wealth. It is true that it gives a temporary sense of well being. A rich person is not someone who has more but someone who desires less. Happiness is the result of total appreciation of all that life gives you at every moment.

Practice What You Say!

Your words might impress others. People will say "He is a good speaker. What interesting things he says". But if you don't practice what you say, others will not feel inspired to do it. It is your actions more than your words which will inspire and show them how to do it.

Bring In Your Best!

As you do, so you become. Every action that you perform is recorded in you, the soul. These imprints ultimately mold your character and destiny. When you understand this principle, you will pay more attention to bringing your best to everything you do.

Value the Strength of Others !

When you notice weakness in another, aim instead to recognize a strength. The awareness that everyone has value will allow you to shift your focus. Find atleast one good quality in everyone, no matter how many defects are visible to you. The more you focus on the good, the more power you give to people and the sooner they will be able to change.

Illness - A Chance To Recover

Illness is a chance to teach the mind to remain independent of physical circumstances and thus to connect with our inner resources. Experiencing these qualities is a powerful medicine.

Meditation Solves Your Problems!

Though the mind often asks for what is visible or material, its needs are deeper and cannot be met by anything superficial or short term. Meditation leads to a meeting point with all that is true and eternal.

Be Cooperative, but........

Being cooperative requires invisibility and precision. Help without splashing your name on the achievement, and leave without waiting for the results.

Think Positively!

When you build a house, every brick counts, when you build character,every thought counts. Your thoughts create your feelings. To save yourself from useless and painful feelings, don't think about useless and negative things. Make every thought you think worthwhile and constructive.

Experience God's Love!

Imagine God as one who sees only the best in you. If you hold yourself to that vision of your own perfection, you will become merciful towards your faults and will be able to easily correct them. One basis of self-respect is the faith that someone loves you. Experiencing God's love empowers you to start loving yourself.

Inner Peace Is Required To Be A Peacemaker.

The first lesson on the path to becoming a peacemaker is to stop being at war with myself. In meditation I can retreat into the inner sanctuary of the soul and enjoy the tranquil flow of loving thoughts passing through my being. Only when the turbulence of my own mind has subsided can I make peace with the world. When I have developed some degree of inner peace I can hear the voice of my own wisdom and know how and where to give energy for the greatest benefit.

True Determination.

Battering at life from the outside, trying to change only what is visible, is inverted determination. When the quality of mind - peace, happiness, depth, purity - can remain still and uninterrupted by the bumps of life, that is true determination.

Have A Positive Approach Towards Life!

When we are faced with pressures, deadlines and troubles we must resist the urge to worry and flit from one thing to another, or to get irritated or blame others, which would just drain our energy. Instead we should try to create a loving attitude towards ourselves and our situation as this will energize our spirit. A kind compassionate approach to life helps the mind to stay clear and focused and takes it to a higher level of spiritual intelligence.

Self-respect Is Important!

Self-respect is not a matter of what you are doing in your life, but rather of how you are doing it. It requires that you bring quality and virtue into each action, whatever that action may be.

Embrace The Changes In Your Life!

The journey of life is one full of changes. Life means change, movement and growth. When the storms of change and inconstancy are swirling all around us we need an inner eye of stillness and stability. This will give the inner strength to cope with the new and different situations that come to us and provide a platform of clear decision-making and powerful thoughts. Anchored in the eternal and unchanging truths of spirituality, we need not resist change but can embrace it.

Learn To Be At Peace !

You spend most of your life running after things, doing things. You forgot that being comes before doing. Those who remember this secret make an effort to "be" and discover that when they stop and observe, life helps and brings whatever is needed. Learning to be is learning to be at peace. It is our most fundamental nature.

Judge Yourself First !

Judge whether your thoughts, words and actions are beneficial to the scene in which you find yourself. Focusing on your own part is more useful than passing judgment on others.

Manifest your Qualities !

Sometimes you must burrow to find the good qualities in your nature that have gone underground and then coax them to the surface. Stopping for a moment and being silent can bring the steadiness you need for this task.

The River Of Human Life!

There is in each of us an underground river whose course cannot be daunted. When the surface of life undergoes upheaval, the river changes, flows around, but never dries up. The strong currents that make this river are peace, love and spirituality.

The Peace Of Spirituality !

Values are related to each other as if they were members of a great family. From peace and happiness emerges inner joy. From this state of wholeness love awakens and with it the desire to share and give. Two of its relatives are tolerance and respect. All values have a shared origin which unites them - the peace of spirituality. When you lose eace you begin to lose everything.

Responding Positively To Opportunities.

Worrying about how everything will get done or whether we are capable of doing it, limits our ability to respond to challenges considerably. The less we think about doing something and the faster we just get on with it, the fewer problems we cause ourselves. Good planning is always helpful, but time spent fretting and procrastinating is a major drain on our energy. The more willing we are to respond positively to opportunities, the more our capacity will grow.

The Power Of Gentleness !

To be of real help without taking root in someone else's mind requires great gentleness. See and understand without either willfully interfering or creating dependence. Gentleness is not lack of strength but a quality which doesn't disturb, doesn't push, yet knows its own power.

Self-Transformation Through Patience And Perseverance!

The process of self-transformation is not a 10-yard dash, but a150-mile run. Patience and perseverance makes the journey possible. It keeps you cool and calm. So pace yourself.

All For the Best !

Sweetness is a virtue that searches for the good in every person and situation. At its heart is the conviction that there is always something to be found in everything. You have to have the patience to discover it.

What has happened before was good, what is happening now is even better and what is yet to come is the best.

Worthy Of Success!

Before we get any kind of advancement or promotion in life, we need to have earned the right to it. There are no free gifts in life, nor are there any short cuts to success of a lasting nature. Being worthy of any kind of responsibility requires an attitude of service to others. We earn a right only when we have given cooperation to others from our hearts.

Faith Makes You Stronger !!

Faith means that there isn't the slightest form of doubt in any situation or at times of obstacles. Situations have to change and they will continue to change. The supports that your faith has now will be removed, and even after that your foundation has to be strong. If your foundation is not strong, then supports are necessary. Therefore you need to maintain your peaceful, loveful state and your love and faith for God has to remain unshakeable.

Silence Is A Virtue

Going into silence enables you to manage your thoughts better. You will find there is no need to think so much, that most of the answers you are looking for will come to you, without much effort on your part.

Honesty Is Being True To Ourselves !

The more honest we are in our dealings with others, the more we are trusted. Honesty is very deep. It is common for people to say one thing and feel another, which, of course is not honesty. Honesty is only possible when we check our conscience and remain true to our highest values. Making our heart honest in this way brings the blessing of being deeply trusted by others.

God : Our Saviour !

We should ask ourselves, do we react to situations in a positive or negative manner? The way we react is very much dependent upon our mental attitude and this in turn is directed by our thoughts. Linking our thoughts to the problems that surround us brings unlimited tension and worry. By linking them to the subtle and powerful vibrations of the unlimited source of peace, tranquility and knowledge that is, God the Supreme, we automatically have a constant source of good uplifting vibrations which can settle our troubled minds. He is the Father of all souls, the one who is there to give help at any time. In a time where our thoughts wander with little or no direction, where we find it difficult to talk or relate to people, it is worth remembering that God, who understands us, is only a thought away.

Be Optimistic! Be Cheerful!

Protecting our sense of optimism is the best way to remain cheerful. We can do this by starting the day with meditation to pourlight and love into the scenes we are likely to find ahead of us that day. And then if we keep touching base with God's mind and His benevolent way of seeing things, the inner happiness we experience will help us pass through any situation without feeling weary.

Non Violence - An Effective Weapon

Non-violence is a very deep philosophy. Not only does it require us to harm no one physically, but also avoid harming anyone's self-respect. Such an ethic requires tremendous awareness and sensitivity. When we have learned to be gentle with ourselves, we can be the same with others.

Think For The Best.....

Your thoughts guide you to your destiny. If you always do what you have always done, you will always get what you have always got. If you always think the same you will always get to the same place. Think in a new way and you will be a new person. Give happiness to all and you will live in peace. Create peace in your mind and you will create a world of peace around you.

Love : So Delicate Yet Very Strong !

They say love is a flower so delicate that a single touch can bruise it and yet so strong as to face the biggest storms; this describes the perfect love, as God has for us. When sustained on faith, it carries us across the most difficult hurdles of life but dies instantly with the touch of impurity (negativity, doubt)... Do we realize that such a love is our birthright as God's spiritual children?

In Search of Love...!!!

All of us want to experience true love. Some of us find it in relationships, others in nature, few in the service of humanity, and a handful in the remembrance of God - the ultimate love. We look for comfort and support in the physical world since the link with the Divine Being has weakened over thousands of years. Having felt His love and power many times afore, we wish to attain and experience God in His complete glory once again.

Blessings are a Boon

'Blessings are not valued until they are gone.' So much is overlooked and so much of our actions are automatic that it is as if nothing special ever happens. Nothing stays the same. The situations we find ourselves in today can change in the twinkling of an eye and the freedom and amenities we took for granted can disappear. We need to stop and count on blessings and see how fortunate we really are.

Self Consiousness Awakens You

Self-consciousness distinguishes you from other animals. It enables you to be aware of your thoughts, feelings and emotions and to understand how they influence your behavior. When your consciousness awakens, you start being truly free because you decide your destiny and take responsibility for your choices.

Develop Your Soul...!!!

People spend a lot of time and energy developing their bodies and making it attractive to other people, but is there ever a thought of developing the soul and making it attractive to God. The body is a physical matter, which will change, age and die. If you have a beautiful body today there is no guarantee that it will remain as such in the future. The soul is an eternal, immortal point of spiritual light. Within the soul there are impressions that form my personality.If I take steps to develop and feed it with spiritual knowledge, my character, my personality will become rich and beautiful. Developing the soul allows us to have full control of the power of thought. The quality of our thoughts determine our own personal degree of happiness.

Be Free From Desires ....

Desires cause peace to disappear. You think that acquiring things will make you feel secure, but the reality is that the more you have, the more fear there is of losing it, and the further you are from peace. Desires are the cause of all conflicts. When you want something and cannot get it, you become frustrated. Learning to be free from desires is learning how to stay peaceful.

Listen To Your Inner Voice.

Your internal dialogue establishes your way of seeing the world. When you make demands on and reproach yourself, you create a world of stress and pain. To be peaceful, create a loving dialogue with yourself, enabling your inner values to awaken and be expressed regardless of your external world.

Attachment Makes You Suffer !

The root of suffering is attachment. You have created a space in your mind that holds a person or object as a part of you. When that person or object is criticized, neglected or not there with you, you feel pain in your mind and you experience a sense of loss. If you want to remain happy at all times, you must learn to love and appreciate while remaining independent.

Learn From Your Mistakes!

When you make a mistake, learn from it, resolve not to repeat it and then forget about it. You will feel better again. Do the same with others, instead of making their mistakes bigger, dissolve them in your mind and help them also forget about them. A sensible person does not criticize the mistakes of others. Instead he learns from them for the future.

Sow the Seeds Today for a Peaceful Life Tomorrow !

Ignorance makes you believe that life functions haphazardly. Wisdom teaches you that everything that happens in this theatre of life has profound significance. What you see today is not the fruit of chance but a fruit from seeds planted in the past. Plant seeds of peace now and you will create a life of peace in the future.

Change Yourselves For Better Results!

When you do not upset yourself thinking about how others must change and instead you concentrate on your own change, good things start to happen. You will feel better about yourself. You will start to have positive feelings towards others and start to understand them. Others start having a more positive attitude towards you. There are many hidden benefits in personal change.

Live In The Present, Not In The Past!!

To forgive and forget is to reflect love. Many of us are slaves of our past. Situations pass, they cease to exist, but they continue to be alive in the mind. Open your heart and be generous, free yourself from that sorrow, forgive and forget and you will live every moment in peace.

There Is Solution To All Your Problems.

The best solutions to problems will not be the result of hard thinking. Use your time better by creating peaceful thoughts, and problems will cease to affect you. Do not try to solve everything on your own. Leave some space for God to come and help you.

Start of a New Day...

As you awaken, the first thought is your foundation for the rest of the day. When you open your eyes, sit for a moment and appreciate the gift of a new day, create a peaceful thought and enjoy some moments of silence.

Trust in God

There are times when we find ourselves in the situation where the person we had trusted is found to be untrustworthy. Either our eyes have been opened or the individual has changed. Life is being kind to us and teaching us a lesson that needs to be learnt, but at that time we often forget this. Our vision gets clouded and self confidence shaken. To turn out thoughts to God, the One who never fails, to find strength in knowing from experiences that with God we can press on, is good. However we must not become bitter towards the world. Each one has his or her role to play and own actions to account for. When we harbour feelings of bitterness and hatred we ourselves become cold and our hearts become like iron. Rather we should be thankful for the opportunity the individual provided for us to learn and grow.

Don't Worry! Be Happy!

Worries are an illusion. They make you live in the future, giving you the belief that you are very busy and take you away from the present. Worries are an excuse for not doing what you really have to be doing. A reactive person appears very busy and worried. With worry, no problems can be resolved. A proactive person focuses attention on the present, acts with initiative, and the understanding that being calm and free from worry is far more effective.

Determination And Patience Go Hand In Hand

Determination is the strength that will enable you to pass the barrier of useless thoughts in order to create positive thoughts and to be successful in whatever you wish. It comes from within and its partner is patience. Patience teaches you not to push but rather to wait and appreciate the game of life instead, knowing that nothing remains the same, and everything will change at some point

Attain Peace by Removing Your Ego

The great enemy of peace is ego. Ego makes you judge others and think about them in an unkind way. It makes you force others to do what you want. In this way you forget you are a student and that you are here to learn. Instead of learning, if you start telling people what they should do and try to change them, you are forgetting an important lesson in life, You can only change yourself, not others. You can only hope to change others by being an example for others to follow.

Life Bring Obstacles to Strengthen You.

Often, from grain of sand a mountain emerges. If you want to protect your inner peace transform the mountain into a grain of sand. Life will bring obstacles and difficulties. They do not come to stop you. They can strengthen you and help you progress with more experience. Keep advancing. Sometimes you do not find a solution, it is enough to keep moving forward, learning from and leaving obstacles behind.

Offer Solace to Troubled Minds

The ability to enjoy one's own company is one of the greatest gifts life has to offer. Learning to turn our thoughts away from all our responsibilities at the day's end and take our mind into a state of peace and benevolence enables us to carry greater and greater loads without feeling burdened. When our inner landscape is full of beautiful thoughts, everything we do is a pleasure. Gently, we calm down chaotic situations and offer solace to troubled minds.

Actions More than Words to Inspire

Your words might impress others. People will say “He is a good speaker. What interesting things he says”. But if you don’t practice what you say, others will not feel inspired to do it. It is your actions more than your words which will inspire and show them how to do it.

Powerful Form of Teaching is Example

The most powerful form of teaching is by example. What you see through your eyes creates the greatest impact. The heart accepts it and it does not need many words. You cannot impose peace on any one through force but you can bring this about by being peaceful and creating a peaceful environment.

Humility Is Rare

Every creative task needs humility behind it, for humility is plainness and on plainness the colors and shape of the work are clear to see and mould. If a new world were to come, it would need vitally this quiet basis to form itself on, that could stay the same whilst things were changing. Humility is the willingness to be used in any way that’s necessary, however out of character it may seem; for in humility, individuality has been exchanged for the task it is involved in. Quietness in this case is an unquestioning acceptance of whatever has to be done. Humility is rare, because to have it you have to want nothing. If you do have it, you get everything.

A Humble Person

A humble person is lovely to be with, for beside them one is at ones best and yet because they respect themselves, nothing done belittles them, but further speaks of their beauty because the achievement is half theirs already.

Humility

Humility dismisses nothing, but takes even small thins seriously. It is the recognition that whatever is in life and in front of you, is to be respected as something that will take you forwards; that inside big things there is sometimes little; but inside little, there is often enormity.

Life - Game of Forgetting and Remembering

Life is a game of forgetting and remembering. You are losing the game when you forget who you are and what you are doing here. You are losing the game when you remember all the false things of the past and what they did to you. You are winning the game when you remember your true identity of peace, remember the One who is always peaceful and has unconditional love for you. You are winning the game when you forget the troubles of the past and move forward with lessons learned.

Bring Back Lightness in Life

Wisdom is not so much a creative quality as one of nurturing what is already there. Wisdom is making the very best of what you have, not stretching your hand for more than you require, nor taking too much. Never saying you will do something, just doing it; and not being enthusiastic. It is seeing the drabness of life and making it beautiful. It is recognizing that every gesture of giving is a right gesture and every gesture of taking is an invitation of influence. Because if you take what you most want, there may be mud stuck to it – heaviness. By giving, as you withdraw, you bring back lightness. It is a life of quiet victories and smiling defeats.

Positive Thinking Quote on Wisdom.

Wisdom is richness, not suspicion or reserve. The richness of experience folded inside you. Experience not only of the past but also of the future, gently knowing what is to come. It is like an income, the interest of which is used daily to live with ease, to avoid pitfalls, but the bulk of which remains saved inside, emerging unbidden when there’s a ‘crater’ in your life. Though there is richness, wisdom avoids shows, understands economy and knows that no-one needs your judgment, only your love for life, your warmth and perception. Wisdom simply sees the need and provides, fits in, but remains unique. Quietly.

Wisdom

Wisdom is knowledge of danger but no fear. It is the ability to spot a twist in the distance, a narrow stretch, the possibility of a collision; to stop and wait in peace until something has passed. No wisdom is keeping going, hoping all will be alright.

Wise Soul

You are a wise soul who recognizes every moment is to be respected as an opportunity to move forward. You make every moment worthwhile by recognizing it is perfect and accurate in the Drama of life.

Remain Silent & Serene.

Many times with good intention of solving a problem, you become a part of the problem. In order to accept the problem it is more practical firstly to remain silent and serene. It is not always necessary to understand to causes but to find solutions. Observe and reflect in silence and then make a decision.

Criticisms.

Criticisms are good things. They help us look at ourselves, to check and improve. There are situations where you feel that nothing you say or do seems right, where there is constant criticism. How do we satisfy people at that time? We must first be satisfied with ourselves before we can satisfy others. If we do not have the power to quickly change the negative attitude of others, we must atleast start with ourselves. Change our attitude towards the one who is constantly criticizing. Adopt more positive approach. Positive thoughts, words and actions will eventually bring positive results. Continue acting in this Godly manner. Atleast God will be pleased with you.

We should Ask Ourselves.

We should ask ourselves, do we react to situations in a positive or negative manner? The way we react is very much dependent upon our mental attitude and this in turn is directed by our thoughts. Linking our thoughts to the problems that surround us brings unlimited tension and worry. By linking them to the subtle and powerful vibrations of the unlimited source of peace, tranquility and knowledge that is, God the Supreme, we automatically have a constant source of good uplifting vibrations which can settle our troubled minds. He is the Father of all souls, the one who is there to give help at any time. In a time where our thoughts wander with little or no direction, where we find it difficult to talk or relate to people, it is worth remembering that God, who understands us, is only a thought away.

Attract Success

You can easily attract success through determination to never forget who you are and what you value. Rather than run away from problems, you choose to race towards the solution.

Accepting Responsibility without Burdened

Accepting responsibility without feeling burdened by it may seem unrealistic. Yet it is possible so long as we stay close to our inner self and strength. If we are willing to trust them, spiritual principles and values work like an unseen hand, guiding everything in a beneficial direction. When we remain aware of this force at work, we can accept responsibility and strive to fulfill it without worrying about results.

Keep Your Mind Positive.

The most important place to keep clean and tidy are our minds and hearts. If we allow thoughts to flourish that we normally wouldn’t want to see the light of day, we can never have any real self-respect. By starting each day in quiet reflection and pouring positive, loving thoughts into our mind, we gradually clean out cynicism and unkindness. Our mind should be so beautiful and welcoming that God Himself would want to come and see it.

The One Who Is Laughing

When there is ignorance of the law of cause and effect, there is laughter instead of mercy and love, ridicule instead of sympathy and compassion. When there is ignorance of the power of thoughts, there are ill wishes for others. To have pure wishes for all is divine, and to have hope for one that seems to be a hopeless case is a good gift of charity. Sometimes thoughts and feelings are expressed in laughter. But laughter, like thoughts can have positive or negative influences and effects. To laugh at the misfortune of others is cruel but the one most affected by the laughter is the one that is closest to it, i.e one who is laughing.

Meditation - The Most Important Journey.

Meditation is the most important journey you can ever make.

It is a journey of no distance in one second!

The destination is the deepest peace,

The prize is the greatest happiness,

And the reward is the truest love.

Wisdom grows along the way.

Develop the Habit of Noticing Goodness.

Even if we don’t mean to be critical, We often unconsciously home in on others’ weaknesses and mistakes. The more we develop the habit of noticing goodness and only holding onto the good in others and in situations, the more our own sense of well being will rise. When we continually think “He/She is wrong”, we create a barrier that prevents us from reaching our own goodness.

High Ethics

To live according to high ethics presents many challenges. No one can tell which ethic should guide which situation. There is no rule book. The solution lies in our own ability to get to the heart of the issue. In order to discern what is really going on in any situation we should first ensure that our mind is free from the clutter of negativity. Then we will have the clarity to understand the motives driving others.

Beautiful Manners

A person of wisdom and spirituality has very beautiful manners that have grown from genuine respect and love for the whole humanity. Manners in this sense have nothing to do with culture or education; it is simply a question of humility. When we are at the receiving end of such manners, we feel that some deeper part of us has been honoured. In fact, none of us deserves anything less.

Attitude of Giving

We can only bring true lasting benefit to others when we have a loving attitude towards them, no matter what they are like. To help bring out the best in everyone, regardless of their mood or disposition, we need to ask “ How can I make a positive contribution here?” instead of wondering what can we get out of situations and people for ourselves. This attitude of giving is one of the great secrets of inner contentment.

Focusing to Inner Self

When we are living from our inner self, it means that we are focusing our attention on the internal and when we observe the external world around us, we do not get lost, threatened or frightened by the events. We remain stable and experience the feeling of security and tranquility. The biggest obstacle to Inwardliness is living in our senses - organs of sigh, hearing and eating. We lose sight of our inner being. We look at things with feelings of desire, greed, anger, attachment or arrogance. We hear indecent or degrading talk. We utter harsh words or get addicted to the pleasures of the palate. Living in the outward is living far away from the state of inwardliness, the consciousness that brings us serenity, happiness and peace.

Conversation with God

One of the best ways to remain light, even in the middle of chaos and heaviness, is to keep a conversation with God. Chatting to God, whose responsibilities are unlimited, about trivial matters that are wearing us down gives us a more entertaining view of life. It requires a certain stillness of mind to hear His advice, but with practice we learn to sense His perspective on our minor irritations. Since His mind radiates lightness and love, the very act of opening ourselves up to Him enables us to lighten our burdens.

Learn to Remain Constant and Unaffected.

Observe how easily the day would pass if you were able to move freely without being affected by the negative attitude of others. Imagine how much you can accomplish if you were able to remain constantly in a calm and peaceful state rather than fluctuating, up one minute then down the next. Everytime you lose happiness and go down, just see how much energy is needed to take yourself up again. If you learn to remain constant, not only is energy saved but you will find that your mental strength increases and of course with mental strength and stability come the development and maturity of character. Strength of character depends upon my ability to remain unaffected by adverse circumstances.

Develop Quality of Sweetness

It is fashionable to use humour in a caustic way and to subtly criticize. More often than not, this is hurtful and makes others wary of us. To avoid any kind of bitter tinge to our interactions we need to let go of mistakes – both our own and those of other people – completely. When we have learned to love in a pure way and know how to create positive attitudes at will, we develop the quality of sweetness in our personality. Let our nature become so sweet that we never again disempower anyone or draw attention to their weakness.

Develop Respect for Ourselves

When we learn to respect ourselves, other people will respect us. How can we develop respect for ourselves? By keeping our mind positive and encouraging ourselves to grow and change for the better. Demanding respect because of our position or background is simply arrogance. On the other hand, listening with humility and valuing other people’s advice naturally ears us respect. We get back exactly what we give out.

Secret to Success

The secret to success lies in the balance of remaining firm in the goals we have set, but flexible in the process of realizing them. We need to maintain a balance of responding to situations with a cool head and to people with a warm heart.

Clear Negativity by fill with Positivity

The method to clear the mind of negativity is to fill it with positivity. Whenever we come across waste or negativity in the self because of the situations that we are faced with, we first put in effort to remove it. We do work very hard to do that but most of the times we are not able to do so. We then put in more effort or after a period of time give up trying altogether. The only way to remove negativity is to fill the mind with positivity. Just as fresh water added continuously to dirty water cleanses the water, so also positive thoughts clear the mind of waste and negative thoughts. For this I need to give my mind positive food everyday.

Way to Remain Stable

The way to remain stable is to apply a full-stop. When difficult situations come my way, it is very natural to have questions and exclamations in the mind. It becomes very difficult to apply a full-stop and finish the situation in my mind. Because of such waste thoughts I am not able to experience stability in difficult situations. I need to bring out in my mind one or the other positive point about the situation. When I understand the meaning behind the situation, I am able to accept it. This acceptance enables me to be free from waste questions and negative thoughts and I am easily able to apply a full-stop. This is what brings inner stability. (No question-mark.... why me, when, how, who...?)

Awareness of Positive Thoughts

To make thoughts as pure as the actions is to be truly elevated. There is usually attention on the self not to perform any negative acts. There is also considerable attention not to speak any words that are harmful or negative. But very rarely is there that attention on the thoughts. Because of this a lot of negative thoughts tend to remain in the intellect causing trouble for me. I need to understand the fact that my thoughts form the basis for my words and actions. The more I pay attention to make my thoughts positive, the more it will have a positive impact on my words and actions too. Constant awareness of a positive thought enables me to maintain my own inner positivity.

Be Master of Self to Create Positive Thoughts

To be a master is to create positive thoughts under all circumstances. The one who is the master of himself creates the right kind of thoughts according to the circumstance. He is not dependent on situations or people for the right kind of response. Since there is mastery over thoughts, there is also mastery over all words spoken and everything done. When I am able to be a master of myself, I am able to constantly create positive thoughts. I am in touch with the inner resources and I am able to make use of these resources in a timely way. I never get confused or pressurized with outside situations, but am able to be in control in all situations.

Key of Positive & Powerful Thoughts

To check and change thoughts and feelings constantly is to ensure positive change. The one who has a constant check on his own thoughts is able to bring about a change in them. So thoughts when changed to positive bring about change in words and behaviour too. There is no negative waste, or even ordinary behaviour. There is speciality revealed in every act. When I am constantly aware of the quality of thoughts I am creating at each moment, I can keep a check on them. My thoughts are not just positive, but powerful too. These powerful thoughts create a positive impact and I experience constant success.

Purity

To be pure is to become an instrument to spread positivity. The one who is pure and clean inside is the one who reflects his purity through his words and actions. Such a person's thoughts are powerful having a positive impact on the thoughts of others too. There is such clarity inside that others are able to take inspiration from him to do what is right. When I am honest with myself, I become more and more pure and clear inside. This purity reveals the power of truth and I get all the more powerful. I don't allow anything negative to influence me and take away my inner purity. This purity becomes a source of powerful inspiration for everyone around.

As We Think So is Our World.

As we think so is our world. Inspite of our best efforts if things don't turn out the way we expect them to, there is a tendency to get disheartened and we begin to have negative thoughts. These negative thoughts further create negative situations and we find that things get no better. Instead of beginning to change things and situations that are going wrong, I need to work at the seed, i.e my thoughts. I need to keep my thoughts positive under all circumstances, which will make my actions positive too and I slowly find things changing for the better.
