Reflection (cont.)
To be dictated to by external situations, which make us run around without stopping
internally, brings about unnecessary stress on the mind, which keeps us tied to
the strings of the external, like a puppet pulled, pressed and pushed by circumstances.
To break free from this force, to relieve the mind of the weight of stress and waste
and routine, I need to step inside and reflect (think) on who I am and where I am
going and reassess my value system.
Otherwise, life becomes like a wheel that keeps spinning faster and faster until
we become dizzy - we want to get off but it is going so fast we do not know how.
Reflection and taking time to understand spiritual knowledge bring us to the essence
of everything.

Message for the day 14-06-2013
----------------------------------------------------------
Negative situations can be transformed into positive with the power of stability.
Projection: When faced with a negative situation, usually the mind gets affected.
Lot of questions arise in the mind that don't allow me to be stable at that time.
Because of the thoughts in my mind, Although it is in my hands to work at transforming
the situation I don't make use of this opportunity but only end up adding to the
negativity.
Solution: In a negative situation, it is necessary for me to maintain my
own inner stability. I need to free myself from wasteful thoughts. Then the negativity
in the situation will finish, first in my mind and then in the situation itself.
My own internal stability will help in finishing the influence of the external situation.
