Recording Scenes Carefully

Recording Scenes Carefully

Our every thought, word and behavior leaves an impression on the soul. They are like recordings on a CD. So we, the souls, are a collection of all these permanent recordings which become a part of our personality. Each recording needs to be pure and positive, as it influences our mind, body and relationships, not just in this life but in future lives too. 


Sit back and teach your mind to pay attention to create only beautiful recordings on the soul, in every scene. Repeat this affirmation everyday to stop creating a negative feeling and record a negative experience, in response to unfavourable events. Qualities like purity, peace and love become ingrained in your personality. When you take care of what you think, speak and do, your every karma becomes right. This automatically creates a perfect destiny. 


Affirmation -

I am a happy being. Today…I cross many situations…I create many experiences…I record them all permanently on the soul. I take care… all that I think, feel and interact… with situations and people…is getting recorded…there is no retake in this recording… it is eternal… it always remains with me. I choose to record right thoughts only. Some habits of people which I reacted to…. If someone is abusive, critical, aggressive, manipulative…. now I understand them…I face their habit with stability… I record that they are not insulting me…they are a victim of their nature… I do not create hurt… I create a recording of compassion… not pain or rejection. If a situation is unpleasant…I accept it as it is … I don't question it …I don't resist it. I don't create negative recordings in any scene. My pure and positive recordings keep my mind peaceful… body healthy… relationships strong…they earn me blessings.

The Ego Sacrifice (Part 3)

The Ego Sacrifice (Part 3)

Remember that in every relationship the person who keeps the other ahead is the one who leads the relationship although it may seem otherwise. Keeping the other ahead means saying yes to the other person even if at times you do not agree with the other person's opinion in a particular matter of common interest. Very often in offices and in homes; you will see at some places, people are so closely knit together. At some other ones, there are negative energy as well as negative word exchanges due to different ways of how people manage the relationships. At one place, the two office colleagues have such a beautiful bond with each other where a day at the office is like a smooth ride and they will never quarrel with each other. On the other hand, in another office, two different people just cannot work with each other and cannot see eye to eye. The main reason for this is simple – I am smarter than you or I am more efficient or I work harder than you or I am more intelligent etc. Such thoughts spoil the relationship and don't let it become a beautiful bond full of love and closeness. 


It is commonly said - forget the differences and become friends. But an important point to note that differences between any two people will always exist. There are no two people with exactly the same view points and ideas. But these differences have to be forgotten. In other words they have to be resolved. That is the key to success. Success in an office is not measured only by your talents and how well you perform alone but also by how well you handle your relationships or how sweet and humble you are. Such people are respected immensely in a workplace. People want to be in their company much more than the ones who are egoistic and extremely rigid in their views and are unable to bow down or sacrifice the ego when required. Remember life is short. So why not enjoy each day with your parent, your spouse, your office friend, your mother-in-law, whoever it may be. They all matter to you and you all matter to them. So cherish their blessings by making the ego sacrifice.

True love brings success in relationships.


Expression: The one who is loving, likes to be with the others.  Such a person will never try to be away even from people who are not loving towards him, but will be able to change the one who is not so loving with his own love. So the one who is loving is always successful in relationships.


Experience: Since I am a loving person, I am able to maintain this love for every person I come into contact with. Whether the other person is able to be loving or not, I find that I never lose my love because of being aware of my true nature.

The Ego Sacrifice (Part 2)

The Ego Sacrifice (Part 2)

Whenever you come into contact with another person, see to it that you are yourself but at the same time you give the other person space by letting him or her be themselves. What that means is that let the other person express themselves in a way they want to and not necessarily in a way that you want them to express or act. They shouldn't be a puppet in your hands. Tell them, guide them, but always be ready to sacrifice your opinion, your view point, attachment to your virtue or particular sanskara which you think is absolutely right and perfect. Also be ready to let the other person's opinion rule the situation involving the two of you. Some people find this as the most difficult thing to do in a relationship and this requires spiritual power and also a lot of love inside you for the other person. Also, we need qualities like humility and contentment, which are extremely important. We are talking about any relationship - at home or in your friend circle or anywhere else; with the opposite gender or with the same gender; with your child or with your boss, with a friend or with your spouse. 


There is a fine line between remaining in a high self-esteem about what you think is right and what you know about a particular situation and letting the other person also contribute in that thought process. What that means is you need to allow the other person to enter that personal space of your thought process. Very often we construct walls around our thinking process and don't let the other person enter it because of the fear that the other person might dominate that space and also the attachment to one's own space. Remember the ones who bow down and are comfortable with people's views and give them as much respect as their own opinions and view points are the rulers of everyone's hearts. People are not ruled by power but their hearts are filled with love to get their love and respect in return. And that happens by keeping the other ahead of you in interactions not only on a physical level but also on a thought level and the level of emotions.
