The Five Spiritual And Five Physical Elements (Part 3)
As explained in yesterday's message, in the hierarchy of the three entities around
which the whole World Drama revolves – the Supreme Soul is right at the top, the
human souls are in the middle and nature is at the bottom. So, the process of restoring
the balance of the spiritual and physical elements has to be initiated from the
top i.e. by the Supreme Soul. The human souls which are in the middle of
the hierarchy benefit from this process directly. The human souls, by transforming
themselves i.e. by filling themselves up with the five spiritual elements peace,
purity, wisdom, love and joy from the Supreme Soul and restoring their balance in
their personalities, then bring benefit to nature which is at the bottom of the
hierarchy. This is because their doing this causes the positive energy of
the five virtues to spread in nature, which results in the balance restoration of
the five physical elements earth, air, water, fire and sky and the five spiritual
elements or virtues in the personalities of animals, birds, insects (the same principle
as explained yesterday). This entire process, explained above, takes place in the
Confluence Age which is a small Age between the Iron Age and the Golden Age, which
is again the present time. So, the Confluence Age is an Age in which positive transformation
takes place. Thus, at the present moment of time, the two Ages - Iron Age and Confluence
Age co-exist.
The Supreme Soul does not bring direct benefit to nature, He does that via human
souls, who are intelligent enough to catch his directions and connect with Him and
as a result transform themselves. So, the human souls when seen with respect
to the Supreme Soul, who is the Creator; are the Creation, who benefit from Him.
But the same human souls, when seen with respect to nature can be called the Master
Creator and nature can be called as the Creation. Here the phrase Master Creator
means children of the Supreme Soul, the Creator, but at the same time those children
who possess the power to perform the task of balance restoration for the self as
well as the Creation, similar to the Creator, under his guidance and by absorbing
power from Him.
We shall explain the actual process of imbibing the five spiritual elements from
the Supreme Soul in tomorrow's message, which is the last of this series.

Message for the day 29-10-2012
----------------------------------------------------------
Introversion helps us to free our mind from wasteful and negative thinking.
Expression: Instead of being taken by surprise and despairing, introversion
helps us to remain steady and creative even during difficult situations. Introversion
keeps us free from the grip of negative programming and conditioning that is already
in the mind and helps us remain focused and capable.
Experience: Even in the most negative situation, we need to practice being
detached and rise above the situation and have the aim of moving forward. This gives
us the understanding that there is a secret, tailor-made lesson for our own personal
development, in every instance of difficulty in our life.
