Avoiding Exaggeration In Conversations

Avoiding Exaggeration In Conversations

Whether it is stating facts in front of our family or narrating an incident to friends, we sometimes exaggerate. By trying to make something seem more important, or better than it is or worse than it is, we make interactions unreal. Moreover, magnifying a negative experience complicates things in our mind and attracts negative vibrations.


1. Do you have someone in your relationships, who likes to exaggerate? Does that person draw you into a drama you wish you could avoid? At times, do you also exaggerate to different extents, for various reasons? 


2. Most people exaggerate today, painting a situation with their own perspective and personality traits, thereby distorting the truth. We may want to gain attention, dramatize for added effects or want to persuade someone. But stretching the truth to make it better or worse, reduces our inner power and credibility.


3. Let us start perceiving situations as they are, without adding our own flavours of worry, fear or excitement. If we exaggerate in our mind, we definitely exaggerate in our words. A little attention to declutter the mind by removing the additional pieces of information, helps us convey nothing but facts.


4. Whether it is negative information, health concern or a casual conversation, have the power to state truths. Remind yourself - I do not exaggerate. Being authentic keeps me clean inside and out, and makes me credible.

Attention To Every Karma

Attention To Every Karma

Our every thought, word and action are the energy we send out to the world, which is our karma. Situations and people's behaviors are the energy on the return, which is our destiny. Every karma gets recorded on the soul, and brings consequence either in this life or in future lives. With inner power we learn to create right karmas, and face consequences of past karmas with stability. Do you take credit for situations when life is smooth? Do you blame God or other people when it hits a rough patch? Do you believe you create your destiny, or that it was pre-destined? We are the creators of our destiny. Every karma has a consequence which can come to us today, in a few days, few years or few births. What we do today in response to what is happening to us is our present karma, and is completely our choice. Let us create the right thought, words and behaviors now as present karma, regardless of the situation. The right present karma settles past karmic accounts, creates a pleasant experience today and a beautiful destiny for our future. Let's not focus on what people and situation do to us, let us focus on keeping our karmas right. 


You are on the journey of your life, living your life your way and according to your values and principles. Whether it is simple eating, drinking, dressing or living habits or sanskars, choose only what is right for your karmic account, only what increases your inner power, what spreads happiness. Your every thought, word and behaviour should be pure and powerful, irrespective of situations. Emerge your original qualities of peace and happiness. Use them in every karma. Have beautiful karmic relationships with people, with nature, with objects, with everything which is there for you. All your happiness, health, harmony and success today is because of your beautiful past karmas. And a few challenges are consequences of your not-so-right past karmas. Accept them without questions, face them knowing that your power lies in the now. Choose a pure present karma to settle the past and secure a happy future. Be grateful to everyone who is right to you, even to anyone who has not been right to you, for giving you the opportunity to increase your inner power and settle your past karma. At every moment have all your karmic accounts settled.

The ones who are constantly happy are truly fortunate.


Expression: 
Whatever the kind of situations needed to be faced, whoever the people and the different kind of personalities they come into contact with, the ones who are fortunate constantly enjoy. They also continue to take benefit and bring benefit to others too. Their fortune lies in their ability to perceive the positive aspect in everything and take benefit accordingly. 


Experience: When I am able to be happy under all circumstances, I am able to make the best use of whatever I have with me. I then find myself full of all resources. I don't think of what I don't have but I am aware of and make the best use of what I have. So I find myself to be always lucky. I constantly move forward.

A Vision Of Goodness For Everyone (Part 3)

A Vision Of Goodness For Everyone (Part 3)

Everyday, when you begin performing actions, watch everyone with goodness in your eyes and heart. Tell yourself and visualize how God is looking at each one in the world. Always bring in front of your eyes, God's love and good wishes for that particular person, who is in front of you, that particular person who is sometimes not very well-behaved and possesses a negative nature. You find it difficult to interact comfortably and peacefully with him or her. Now keeping this positive wisdom in your mind, create a positive attitude for the person. Now based on that attitude, keep a positive vision for the other person. The more your vision remains positive, the more your words and actions will become beautiful and positive towards the other person. And the more your words and actions are pure and nice, the more the person will change as you want, into a nice person. This is the secret for changing a person from not so nice into nice. Our consciousness influences our attitude; our attitude influences our vision; our vision influences our words and actions. All of them together radiate the positive energy of goodness to the other person. This positive energy transforms the other person's nature positively. This process is called world transformation through self transformation or the other's transformation through my transformation.


So, we live in a world, where sometimes we will see the negative in people, whether at home or in our workplace or in our society. Also, sometimes we will perceive people to be bad, although they are not. But take care that you don't ever leave your goodness. God sees so much negativity in the entire world but He never leaves His vision of goodness for everyone. He uses the wisdom of human souls that He possesses, the wisdom that everyone was pure and positive when they came into this world and lost their goodness over many births; to keep His vision positive and also keeps good wishes of change for everyone. So be good, see good and make others good with that vision of goodness. Don't leave your goodness in the ocean of imperfections that surrounds you in the entire world.

Faith in one's progress brings contentment.


Expression: 
Even when the situation is not according to what is expected, there is contentment for the one who has faith in his own progress. Such a person will not just sit back waiting for things to change nor will he just curse his fate. Instead he'll do his best and use all his resources in bettering the situation. 


Experience: The understanding that all life's situations are a training for me, automatically keeps me content in all situations. There is naturally an experience of constant progress and a feeling of having gained something from all situations.
