Creating A Positive Atmosphere
Instead of expecting external situations to always be giving some personal benefit
to us, the soul should see how it could give benefit in any situation, thus creating
a powerful atmosphere of benefit. Where there is expectation there is always the
possibility of disappointment thus creating a negative atmosphere, but where there
is an attitude of giving benefit there can never be disappointment. When the soul
has the power to maintain its chosen positive experience in the mind, it generates
a powerful, pure atmosphere. The more powerful the soul, and the greater the number
of other souls experiencing the same, the more powerful the corresponding atmosphere.
The original nature of the soul is to be peaceful. Through Rajyoga meditation, we
develop the power to maintain an experience of peace for long periods, even when
speaking or performing action, and this very naturally has an effect on the immediate
atmosphere wherever we may be; in a room, a office, at home or on the street. Ultimately
I can influence the entire world in a positive way.

Message for the day 25-06-2013
----------------------------------------------------------
True service is to be free and make others free from obstacles.
Projection: When we are involved in a task, we totally think about ourselves
irrespective of what effect it has on others. Such an attitude sometimes takes on
the form of selfishness to the extent that we become an obstacle for others.
Solution: We need to check ourselves whenever we are involved in a task if
what we are doing is effecting others positively or negatively. Whatever we do,
only if there is benefit for us as well as for others, can we call it truly successful.
