Perfection Is Attained By Doing & Practicing Regularly !

If one waited to do something so well that nobody could find fault with it, one would probably do nothing. So whilst it is good to aspire to perfection, it should be perfection attained through doing and practicing regularly, no matter what the circumstances are.

Life Is Nurtured By Different Types Of Attitude !

When you extend pure love to everyone with selfless motivation that is an attitude of kindness. When you send good wishes and pure feelings to those who are in deep sorrow, that is an attitude of mercy. When you see the virtues rather than the weaknesses in people that is an attitude of compassion. When you bless and uplift someone even as they defame you, that is an attitude of forgiveness. When you tolerate a situation and take responsibility as well as give cooperation even when not appreciated, that is an attitude of humility and self- respect. Every second, every moment and every breath of your life is nurtured by attitude.

Always Have Pure & Positive Feelings !

To sow the seeds of pure feelings constantly is to experience positive fruit. When my feelings are constantly positive and pure, there is no expectation of the fruit to emerge immediately. Even if others are not able to respond to the positivity or if situations are not according to my expectations, there is still the feeling of giving. So there is this positivity expressed through the vibrations spread around and in every word and action. The more I am able to have pure feelings for those around me, the more is the positivity that emerges from within. Because of having discovered the positivity within, I am able to give unconditionally. So I experience the immediate fruit of what I have given and also accumulate for the future, and continue to enjoy multifold fruit of what I give.

Do All Tasks With Love And Experience Lightness !

Victory is guaranteed to the ones who are constantly loving. The ones who are loving are able to involve others in everything they do with their love. So whatever the task maybe, they find it to be very easy and are able to accomplish the biggest task with ease. Also each task done by them is with love and so everything is done with lightness and so victory is guaranteed. When we are loving and do everything with love, we constantly experience lightness, based on the blessings from others. We are carefree as there is no heaviness of the task to be performed. Love transforms labour into entertainment. Our internal lightness enables us to do the biggest task with great ease, involving everyone with love.

Have Regards For Others !

Let there be a positive record of always talking with regard. When I have regard for others, there are good wishes expressed through my words. Such words are totally free from the slightest bit of negativity and bring a very positive result. When words are positive, they are few but essenceful. So they have a lot of impact on others. When I have regard for others, I will be able to keep myself free from negative and waste words. So I'll naturally find every word of mine being used in a positive and powerful way. So I find only accumulation and no waste through my words. My energy is saved and others too would have only good wishes for me.

Observe Your Life Silently !

Always See Good Qualities In Others !

When I become excessively critical towards others, it means I am going in the wrong direction. We are usually very good at spotting mistakes, but we should develop the quality of also spotting goodness. If I can see what is good in others or in situations and go beyond the curtain of negativity, I feel good about myself. If I constantly think "he is wrong", I instead create a barrier which blocks me from reaching my own goodness. A very ancient law says: "just as I treat others, I shall be treated by others."

Have Powerful And Positive Thoughts For Others !

Thoughts are like a magic carpet, on which the soul rides across eternity. Rest for the spirit (which is what we are) is when we allow only the current of the purest thoughts to flow through our mind - thoughts which carry good wishes and blessings for ourselves and others. This is not so much going with the flow, as being in the flow, and refreshed by the flow. For when we have powerful, positive thoughts for and about others, who experiences them first?

The Treasure Of Experience !

The biggest treasure of all is the treasure of experience. The one who has the treasure of experience is able to bring benefit to others. He is clear in thinking and accurate in judgment. So he is naturally able to give directions or corrections based on his own experiences and is also successful in it. Also there is equality in what he talks and does. To be an embodiment of experience means to learn from everything that happens. So when we are able to become an embodiment of experience, we are able to feel mastery over every situation that comes our way. The power of our experience enables us to move lightly through all situations.

Mould Yourselves To Make Your Thoughts Easy And Light !

To transform the self means to receive blessings. The one who brings about transformation in the self, learning from all situations, attains victory constantly. He will naturally be able to take the learning from all situations and move on inspite of negative situations. He is also successful in his relationship with others, as he knows to mould himself. When we are able to bring about transformation in ourselves according to time, without just expecting others to change, we are able to get the love and good wishes of all. Because of the ability to mould ourselves, our thoughts too would be easy and light.

Be Stable Even In The Most Difficult Situations !

The power of stability enables to cross over all obstacles. The one who is stable is not influenced by one's own old habits and tendencies to react, but is able to think and act properly under all circumstances. The power of stability brings forth the best decisions in the most difficult times, brings solutions and helps in lessening the impact of the obstacle itself. When we are stable on the seat of a master, we are able to be free from the influence of our old habits, those that are of weakness. Instead we are able to transform old habits into new ones, making them into those of power. Learning to be stable in the most difficult situations, enables us to cross over all obstacles very easily.

See Only Virtues and Specialties In Others !

An ant is tiny beside an elephant but as soon as an ant enters the ear of an elephant it goes crazy. The elephant’s ears are so big, the elephant itself is so big and yet a tiny ant makes it go wild. In the same way, if I allow the slightest defamation of anyone go through my ears, I lose all my spirituality. I lose all my value because I start interacting with others on the basis of what I have heard about them. Pay attention to this! We have to be very, very selective in what we allow to enter our ears. Let me learn to see only virtues and specialities. Let me not concentrate on anyone’s weaknesses.

Be Humble And Forgive Others !

Why is it hard to forgive others? Usually because we believe that they are 90% to blame for the problem, that I am not as bad as they are. So I start to carry the load of other people's actions. If my ego is too hurt, I will have the sense of correction, of justice: 'I know I am right', 'That is not fair'. But if I start to forgive from the heart, sincerely, then this kind of feeling and attitude begins to dissolve. I remain humble and this forgiveness will bring me closer to others. Then I do not carry regrets or anger, I just let go and remain light.

Have A Light And Easy Approach To Life !

As we grow in strength in our spiritual life, we give up the habit of worrying. It serves no purpose other than to make us feel tense and miserable. When I stop fretting about things that are beyond my control and focus instead on generating optimistic and kind thoughts, my life can begin to flow in ever more positive directions. Such a light and easy approach to life enables me to take everything in my stride.

Experience Constant Progress Through Your Own Creation !

To be a creator means to use all treasures for a positive contribution. Even in the most negative situations, the one who has the thought of creation, works towards bettering the situation. Every thought, word and action is towards creation and not towards worsening the situation. Such a person is not concerned about who spoilt the situation or how it got spoilt. To the extent possible, he works towards bettering the situation. When we are working towards creation, we are able to make the best use of our resources and treasures. We then experience constant progress. We also experience contentment of having made a contribution, however little it may be. We have no questions, but only answers under all circumstances.

Honesty Means The Same Inside Out !

Honesty brings success in relationships. Honesty means being the same inside out. Honesty with oneself helps one to bring about constant improvement in the self. Honesty with others enables one to relate positively under all circumstances. There is no rudeness but there is an openness that brings about love towards the other person. When we are honest, we are able to experience progress in our life and others are benefitted too with our self-progress. We are able to maintain harmony in our relationship with others because we are open with them and we find ourselves successful in our relationships.

Keep Yourself Centered In Your Spirituality !

Your need power to remain free from the influence of others. Detachment is this power. If you can't stay detached from influences, you will not be able to keep your thoughts under control. From there it will be a downward spiral until all trace of inner well-being is lost. The first step in detachment is to understand who you are as a spiritual entity. This allows you to 'detach' yourself from your physical identity, and it's world of limited thoughts and feelings, and 'attach' instead to your spiritual personality, the being of inner peace and power. A normal day will be filled with challenges to this detachment. On the one side will be your spiritual awareness, but on the other will be the attraction towards human beings and the material world. Detachment is not a question of becoming separate from the later, but of simply remaining conscious of yourself as a spiritual being whilst being in the world and playing your part. Detachment simply means to keep yourself centered in your spirituality.

Our Problems Have The Potential To Make Us Unshakeable !

If we face our problems and respond to them positively, and refuse to give in to panic, bitterness, or self pity, these adverse situations that look like they could bury us have within them the very real potential to make us unshakeable.

Be Ever Ready To Do All Tasks And Attain Success !

To be ever ready means to guarantee success. The ones who are ever ready are active and so when a task comes up, they quickly understand it and attain success. They do not waste time and energy thinking too much about it. They recognize the importance of the task and involve fully in it and attain success. When we are ever ready we are able to be easy. All tasks seem easy for us and effort put in for the success of the task also becomes easy. So we don't have to do a lot of effort but give our best. Thus we experience success every moment in all situations.

Create A Strong Influence On Others By Your Own Personality !

To recognise the uniqueness of my own personality is to be free from negative influence. The one who is aware of one's own uniqueness is able to create a strong influence on others of his own personality. So, such a person is not negatively influenced by anyone's personality traits. Even when there is a person with a very strong personality, he is still able to be free from negative influence. When we are able to recognise and use the specialities that are within us, we are able to remain powerful within. In all circumstances and with all people we experience this innate power. Because we are constantly in touch with our own specialities, we are able to be light and happy.
