Communicate Silently To Achieve Best Results !

The language of silence is more powerful than the sound of words. When something is expressed in silence, it is with the power of thoughts. Such thoughts spread positive vibrations and reach out to the others, in such a way that even the words can't. Also when such kind of positive actions are added to the positive thoughts, the desired effect of that is seen. Then the words are not needed to express good intentions and good wishes. When we are able to express ourselves through the language of silence, we are able to be free from expectations for others to listen to what we are saying. We will only be silently communicating whatever we have to through our good wishes and inspiring others through our positive actions. So we are able to remain content and light, even when we have not yet seen the result of our communication.

Be Committed Towards Truth !

Commitment for truth brings constant happiness. For the one who is constantly with the truth, there will be no fluctuations in the happiness - experienced by the self and expressed to the others. So there is benefit for both the self and others through this. Only when there is no truth, the support of falsehood is taken to prove and defend oneself. So the happiness is not retained constantly. When we are committed towards living by the truth, we will not be influenced by the different situations that we are faced with, but will be able to experience constant happiness. We will never be influenced negatively by negative situations and allow ourselves to lose our happiness and we find our happiness rising constantly.

Have Mercy For Others !

Mercy means to give courage. The one who is merciful is able to give courage to the ones who are weak, because of the ability to look at the positive qualities in them. The weak ones are made weaker with negative and discouraging talk, but are encouraged to discover and use the strengths that are hidden within. So real mercy will give the courage to the other person to change too. When we have mercy on others, we will never lose hope on anyone, but will continue to have good wishes for everyone. Whatever the kind of person, even with the most negative situation, I will find our stock of good wishes to always be full. So we are able to be free from the expectation from the others to bring about a change immediately.

Have A Stronger Heart !

The heart is like a flower - unless it is open it cannot release its fragrance into the world. The fragrance of the heart is made up of the qualities and virtues of our spirit. Most of us have learned how to keep our heart closed in a world that would trample all over us if we let it. Being open hearted today seems to require tremendous courage. It is a courage which comes only when we realise that no one can hurt us, no matter what they say or do. They may hurt our body, but if we have realised we are spirit, nothing outside can touch us, if we so decide.

Detachment Helps Us To Be Free Of Dependency !

The one who is detached enjoys all facilities and yet is not dependent. For the ones who are detached, the facilities available are a medium for attaining something. They make the best use of each and everything available, for their benefit and the benefit of others. Yet they don't stop because of lack of facilities because they are able to find a way even if there is nothing available. When we are detached, our internal stage is beyond fluctuation. We are able to enjoy each and every thing that comes our way and be light constantly. Also it enables us to be free of dependency. So we are able to make use of all facilities, and yet be free from negative feelings when we are deprived of them.

Humility Makes You Powerful !

The one with humility is the one who can be creative. Creativity comes to the extent that the intellect is humble. Such an intellect is able to create something new. Because humility is a form of love, it brings the enthusiasm for creativity and the ability to bring newness in everything that is done. Humility gives us an experience of being a master, of being powerful. This power comes from the experience of being a constant learner, because we have no ego of what we already have. This mastery makes us creative, making us bring newness in every thing we do.

What Is Real Freedom ?

Freedom is a state of mind. Understanding the self is the key to freedom. The more one understands the self, the easier it is to be liberated from the chains of waste and negativity. Freedom is to be uninfluenced and unaffected, to be at peace with the self. Real freedom is to experience the true essence of one’s being.

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 !

The practice of silently observing life enables me to understand other people's inner concerns. I become slower to judge and better able to respond openly and thoughtfully.

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.
