Self Transformation (Change) (Part 3)
Here are some practical reminders and steps we can take to grow spiritually and
bring out transformation (change) in ourselves:
Use 'traffic control'
To remember our original peaceful state during certain moments of the day creates
a space for us to recharge and to be released from accumulated negativities, which
have influenced our mind without our realizing it.
'Traffic control', is a method to check and control the flow and type of thoughts
that we create. Are our thoughts wasteful or are they useful, necessary, positive,
and peaceful? By stopping for a minute every hour, we can step inside, apply a brake
to the flow of thoughts and instead focus on the experience “I am a peaceful being
(soul)”. This practice has an immediate cooling effect on the mind, and if done
regularly, has a very positive impact on our daily lives.

Message for the day 25-02-2013
----------------------------------------------------------
Where there is constant checking there is progress.
Projection: Sometimes we find our mood fluctuating seemingly without any
reason. At such times we do not understand why it is happening so. We try to change
our mood at that time by doing something else. We do find temporary relief but the
feeling reemerges after sometime.
Solution: What we need to do is to first check the cause of our fluctuation
in mood. Particularly we need to check what weakness is working within us. Once
we discover this we would find it easy to change our thoughts and feelings.
