The Interplay Between Souls, Matter And The Supreme Soul (God)
The forces, which interact to produce the phenomena of world history and geography:
souls, matter and the Supreme Soul (God), are threaded by the law of karma. When
there is mental communion (connection) with the Supreme, the soul's relationship
with matter changes. This means that the internal love-link that the soul has with
the Supreme is reflected in the performance of the soul in the material world and
in the degree to which the soul has mastery over matter; firstly over the sense
organs of the body and through that, over the colors, shapes and sounds of the material
world.
We have continually sought to understand which way to act, but have lost our sense
of direction for various reasons:
• We forgot that we were soul-actors.
• We became lost on the world stage.
• We became over-identified with our costumes the physical body.
• We lost sight of the story of the drama.
• We forgot that we were residents of the soul world.
• Due to body-consciousness the soul severed (broke) its subtle connection with
the Supreme Soul.

Message for the day 22-07-2013
----------------------------------------------------------
The power of positive thoughts enables others to be free from their worries.
Projection: When someone is going through difficult times there would be
naturally worry and tension. At such times it becomes very natural for us too to
come into tension. However, we don't seem to be able to help the other person in
anyway when we have such thoughts. Instead we only add to the negative thoughts
of that person.
Solution: When we find someone who is having negative thoughts in a difficult
situation, we need to remind ourselves that we are the only ones who can help them
come back to his positivity. It is possible for us to do this only when our own
thoughts are positive. When we train our mind in this way we will be able to maintain
our own positivity which will enable the other person also to be rid of his worries.
