Emotional Detoxification (Part 4)
Our first responsibility is our own physical, emotional and spiritual wellness. So just as we take care of the body, let us also take care of nurturing the mind. In the last few messages, we explored that we are what we read, watch and listen. We also evaluated how to avoid taking in negative information from people taking to us about someone we can do nothing about. Let us now see what options we have, to tackle another similar situation - a person wants to share what someone else says about us.
Let us now see what options we have, to tackle another similar situation - a person wants to share what someone else says about us.
Option 1: Let us listen to the opinion. If there is something we can do about it, we must by all means do it. Else ignore it completely and not think about it and carry it like a baggage. Let go.
Option 2: Like it happens many times, it may just be an opinion that is sized up and colored by many people based on their sanskar. So the version that reached us can be drastically different from the original. Again, let go. If needed we can talk directly to the person whose opinion we have received. We do this only if there are issues which need to be resolved.
Option 3: We can politely refuse to hear the information. Lets make it clear to the one sharing it with us - Please share what others are saying about me, only if you feel there is something I need to do about it.
By choosing any of the above options, we increase our will power. We will also begin to take only healthy information. Such situations test us. By facing them well, our wrong sanskars and negativity finish. Let us remember that if we consciously refuse consuming negative information twice or thrice, people around us will stop bringing up such matters to us.
The most significant payoff is that the soul gets strengthened. When the soul is strengthened, all our weaknesses are removed. We know that we cannot work on individual weaknesses like finishing anger, finishing fear and so on. But when the soul becomes powerful, all weaknesses ago away. It is comparable to our physical health - if our immunity is high, we don't have to fight individual illnesses like cold or fever, our immune system prevents them all.

Message for the day 10-12-2019
-----------------------------------------
To finish waste questions is to find a solution.
Expression: When a difficult situation comes up there are waste questions in the mind either about the past or about the future. Questions like ‘why did it happen like this?’ or ‘What will happen now?’ are very common. But to keep the mind busy with waste questions is to block it from using its capability of finding solutions. On the other hand, to finish waste questions, means to keep the mind free for finding solutions.
Experience: When I keep my mind free from waste questions, I am able to be alert and find the right answer to every problem. I have the confidence and I know that every problem has a solution. When I keep my mind in the present by freeing myself of waste questions, I am able to quickly and easily find the solution and find myself moving towards success even in all challenging situations.
