A QUESTION AND ANSWER SESSION

A QUESTION AND ANSWER SESSION TO SHARE

QUESTION: Why is negativity increasing in my life, what do I do to get positive results, how can I create peace and freedom in my life, please guide me?

ANSWER: My dear friend, Thank you for sharing your thoughts with me.

The best, simplest, and most profound tool to remove negativity in life is counting blessings.

The gratitude notebook works for me all the time.

Please create a tool (a gratitude notebook)

This notebook will be with you for a very very long time, so give it a beautiful cover and place stickers or pictures that mean a lot to you.

Now every night before going to bed just write 3 things or more in life that you are grateful for.

Choose to see the gifts that every situation brings into your life, ....every situation, even though your mind may classify it as negative.

You are not your mind, so you can go beyond your mind and choose to see the gifts that every situation brings.

See the gifts, the gifts may be helping you to be patient, helping you to place more trust in the Creator's love, it can be learning to forgive, it can be helping you to meditate more, or create peace in your heart, it can be the basic necessities of life, it can be having friends and loved ones, it can be anything.

If there is a problem in your life, silently sit with the so called "problem" and place your hand on your heart and ask your heart what is the gift in the situation. The gift will be revealed to you.

So record it in your gratitude notebook. Also record all the things in life you are thankful for.

Everyday slowly increase your list of things that you are grateful for , be very sincere in doing this.

Remember that you are doing this exercise as a gift for yourself, there is no one forcing you to do this. You are doing this to bring freedom, and peace to your life. So choose to do this sincerely everyday, you can also keep the notebook close to you where you can see it and also record your gratitude anytime during the day. And read all that you write everyday.

You will be amazed to notice how blessed your life is.

This is the most simple and profound tool that brings immense peace, joy and freedom in life, I have personally experienced its benefits and hence I am sharing this with you.

Trust that I have answered your question. May your moments be filled with joy, ease, and grace my friend!

Blessings!

PRAYERS FOR FRANCE

PRAYERS FOR FRANCE

We have the power to pray for our fellow beings, we have the power to call upon Divine help, for we are beloved children of the Universe. As soon as we call from our heart, help is given immediately. So let us use this power of ours to pray for the people of Paris.

CALLING UNTO ARCHANGEL MICHAEL TO PROTECT THE NATION OF FRANCE AND BRING PEACE AND COMFORT TO PARIS

Archangel Michael is one of the 7 archangels under the Creator. The Archangels were the first formed beings to watch over all of creation.
Archangel Michael is one of the most powerful protector, defender and guardian. Michael is the epitome of strength and valor. He intervenes miraculously to save lives and to protect our bodies, loved ones, vehicles, belongings, and reputations.
His colors are royal purple, royal blue, and gold.
As soon as we call Archangel Michael, he is there.
Today let us ask Archangel Michael to surround the country of France, especially the city of Paris with his royal purple light to dissipate and ward of all lower energies that are creating attacks on innocent people.
May the angel of armies of Archangel Michael take charge of the city and bring peace, comfort and safety for the people.

May the people of France be blessed! May humanity awaken to its Divinity! Let love and kindness and good intentions flow from the hearts of all humanity! May this Planet be blessed!

THE BURDENS WE CARRY

THE BURDENS WE CARRY

The mind creates stories of constant judgment of things, situations and people and stores the data. If we choose to go with the mind, we start carrying the enormous burdens - the innumerable data of judgment, good/bad, ugly/beautiful, kind/cruel, black/white, long/short..... goes on and on.... creating enormous stress and fear in our lives. Apparently the fear and stress have been only created by thoughts from the data collected. Many of our likes and dislikes arise from unconscious use of recorded thought forms of all humanity stored from the first moment of creation.
The moment we choose to go with the judgments of the mind, we notice that we have lost our freedom to be the truth of who we are.
We are unconditional love, we are kindness, we are compassionate beings, but the moment we carry the burdens of the mind, we forget who we are, and we miss the opportunity to extend our compassion and love, we miss the opportunity to anchor our conscious Presence every moment, we miss the opportunity to create 'heaven on earth'.
Since we are the sum total of all our experiences, we are immensely burdened by our pasts. We need to choose a spiritual cleansing of all the data by appealing to our Divinity within.
We are not our mind, we can choose to go beyond the mind and create well being for ourselves and this Planet. The solution is to clear the mind of all the debris/data of judgment collected.
This brings to memory the great work of therapist , Dr. Ihaleakala Hew Len, who helped heal an entire ward of mentally ill criminals -- without seeing any of them. Since the world is a reflection of what is happening inside us, in order to correct an imbalance, the place to heal is within ourselves. Every imbalance can be corrected just by working on the self.
Dr. Hew Len trusted that we can appeal to Divinity to heal us from all thoughts and memories that are holding us back from being the truth of who we are at this time.
His method was Ho'oponopono, a process of developing a working relationship with our Divinity within asking that in each moment, our errors in thought, word, deed or action be cleansed. This bring total freedom, freedom from all things past.
Let us choose to clean all our judgments, attitudes and beliefs every moment with the help of our Divinity within.
Just for today let us try to look at things, people, and situations without judgment, for example if we are looking at someone let us consciously stop ourselves from making judgments about the persons look, clothing, hair etc. Let us choose to release all burdens and live as our true selves on this beautiful Planet!
Blessings!

LIFE IS AN ART OF GIVING AND RECEIVING

LIFE IS AN ART OF GIVING AND RECEIVING

We emanated from the Creator energy, we are a part of the Creator, hence we have the essence of the Creator in us. Love, compassion, peace, benevolence are the truth of who we are. When we are in our truth, we are in the place of joy. But when we move away from our truth into mind stories of judgment, sadness, and all kinds of fear we do not flow with life and we experience stagnation/darkness/stress.
The natural law is giving and receiving. If we want friendship we become a friend first, if we want love then we learn to give love, if we want appreciation we learn to give appreciation, if we want success we learn to make others successful, this is the natural law of life.
We are unlimited beings of immense power within us, our thoughts, words, and actions are powerful. We create life experiences through the art of giving and receiving. We can create either heaven or hell with this inner power that we have.
Every moment of life is an opportunity to give and receive. The greatest joy I receive is when I sit with myself and silently bless everything around me with all good things. I start by blessing everything that passes by, the bees, butterflies, wasps, ants, the small squirrels, cats, and dogs, the huge trees and plants, the passers by who go for a jog or a walk, the people in my family, the people driving by in their cars, the sweet friends on internet, the machines in my home, my computer, my books, the furniture, the beautiful earth I walk on.... everything... everything deserves a blessing from our heart.
This is because we are all things; we are connected, all things exist only with the Creator's essence, we all are One Consciousness! And so what we do for others we actually do for ourselves.
Just like giving, receiving is a wonderful art of generosity. When we receive gifts from others with joy it brings great blessing and satisfaction to the soul of the giver. There is so much of graciousness when we receive compliments and gifts with a joyful attitude!
The willingness to give and receive keeps abundance circulating in our life. The Universe identifies our intense emotions. Our thoughts with emotions have the power to transform. We are the beloved children of the Universe and the Universe loves to co-create with us. The more we bless everything around us, the more the Universe brings wonderful things into our life for us to be the blessing that we are!
Let us choose to live from our heart, let us not forget that we are powerful co-creators! Let us use our power to create "heaven on Earth"!
Blessings!

FROM DARKNESS LEAD US TO LIGHT

FROM DARKNESS LEAD US TO LIGHT

"HAPPY DEEPAVALI !!!! " to all friends who are celebrating and inviting light into their lives!
This year November 11th is the Hindu festival Deepavali, it is celebrated with great joy in India and many other countries.

Deepavali means "an array of lights"

A prayer from the Upanishad for this beautiful celebration of Deepavali

asato mā sadgamaya
tamasomā jyotir gamaya
mrityormāamritam gamaya
Oṁ śhānti śhānti śhāntiḥ

Meaning of this Upanishadic prayer:

From ignorance, lead us to truth;
From darkness, lead us to light;
From death, lead us to immortality
Om peace, peace, peace

Deepavali is a time of offering prayers for the enlightenment of humanity. It is a time to invite the Creator's loving light to enter into our heart and fill the Planet so that there might be great relief from sorrow, sickness, ignorance, hate, greed, war, and every kind of fear.
In one of his discourses Sri Sai Baba says, "Deepavali is a festival which is designed to celebrate the suppression of the Ego by the Higher Self. Man is plunged in the darkness of ignorance and has lost the power of discrimination between the permanent and the evanescent. When the darkness of ignorance caused by Ahamkara (the ego-feeling) is dispelled by the light of Divine knowledge, the effulgence of the Divine is experienced."

May the loving light of the Creator fill your hearts and your home on this Deepavali, and bring illumination, wisdom and peace!
Happy Deepavali to you my sweet friends!

THE MIND VS THE HUMAN

THE MIND VS THE HUMAN

Have you ever noticed your mind, it always tries to ask the question "what is wrong, what is wrong with this person, what is wrong with this situation, what is wrong, what is wrong? " An obsession with wrongness. And then it gets preoccupied with this wrongness and makes it bigger and bigger till it scares itself.

The mind's duty is to protect the body, so it takes its work seriously :-) But of course we are not this mind, neither are we this body or this personality. We are the witness of this mind, body, and personality.

We have the power to move beyond the mind and its stories and chose to ask and see, "What is the gift, what is the gift from this person in my life, what is the gift from this situation, what is the gift that life has brought to my door today, what is the gift? " The willingness to see the gift, creates magic and brings the realization that life is truly miraculous, that it is one grand journey of gathering wisdom, of awakening to the beauty within us and in all creation!

Choosing to move beyond the mind is the ultimate purpose and success of this lifetime in this human body.

Blessings!

ABUNDANCE IS OUR BIRTHRIGHT

ABUNDANCE IS OUR BIRTHRIGHT

True abundance is choosing to live in joy. When we are able to relate to every life experience with whole-hearted involvement and trust, we feel abundant, life becomes a celebration every moment.

Abundance has nothing to do with wealth or money. Every thing in this Planet has been created for us, every person, every situation, every place is there for us to know ourselves. There is never any possibility of failure.

It is our ability and our choice to celebrate and enjoy every moment, to make as more as possible with whatever we have, to be aware and conscious with our body, our breath, our space, and the things in our space. For, everything, (regardless of whether the mind defines it as good or bad), comes to our space with a gift, and we can unwrap the gift only when we choose to trust and give our attention fully to it.

Abundance is to trust life completely and expect our every need to be met, and every problem to be solved. To patiently travel the path of life and be open and receptive to all the wonderful things that life brings our way,

We can be as creative, good, talented, adventurous as we like and give our energy fully and completely every moment, not because of the expectation of anyone but because we feel good about doing things. This makes us extremely satisfied and we realize that what we have is enough and more than enough. We realize that we are powerful creators, and the Universe is eager to co-create grandness with us.

When we choose to appreciate and fully enjoy even the very little things , when we are able to do more with less then life sees to it that we are given more by just doing less. This makes us the richest people on the Planet!

A favorite affirmation:

" I am open and receptive to all the wonderful things that life brings to me. I completely trust the Universe to take care of me. My life is filled with joy and laughter. And so it is. "

Let us choose to awaken to our abundance, let us choose to live life fully, let us celebrate our gift every moment!

Blessings!
