Act With Humility, Defeat Ego

Act With Humility, Defeat Ego You love modesty, you hate artificialness. You do your best to be humble. Yet your ego and pride show their strength from time to time. Does this happen? Sometimes we don't realize what our stubborn ego is up to. The problem could be as basic as not knowing what ego is. Any image which is not our true identity is ego. It is when we make something that we have acquired, as our identity. Our qualification, position, skill, relation, religion or caste - when we make any of these our identity, we play our roles based on this identity and expect others to behave accordingly with us. Our roles and positions differ- CEO and his driver, parent and her child, minister and his assistant. We first labelled roles as higher and lower, and soon called people superior and inferior – this created ego. The more knowledge, talent, skill or money we acquire, let's increase humility and suppress ego. It ends conflicts, power games, greed, competition and jealousy. Remind yourself - I am a pure, conscient being, just as everyone else. I radiate love, respect and humility to others. Despite living in a world of widespread competition and arrogance, whenever you come across a humble person, have you said - What a humble person, it was lovely meeting him. Have you experienced how even a little bit of humility goes a long way in giving love and joy to others? Our success may not please someone but our humility has a universal appeal. All of us want to be humble and modest but sometimes ego seems to takes over and we end up feeling prideful. Simplest way to check is - When we are humble, we are in the giving mode, radiating our love and purity to others. When there is ego, we shift to the asking mode where we want love and respect. And then we start radiating rejection, anger or hurt. If we are not aware of it, there is a possibility that our ego will surface. Remain calm and stable, whether you receive appreciation or criticism. Expectation, competition and comparison will slowly finish. Every time you act with humility, your ego gets defeated. Message for the day Lightness comes when words are accurate. Expression: Accurate words means there is nothing extra spoken.  Whatever has to be said is said to the point.  Such words being short are sweet to hear too and are those that never hurt others.  They bring about the result needed accurately. Experience: When my words are to the point, there is a lot of lightness experienced within me and my physical energy is saved too.  Others too experience benefit through my words and so I naturally get blessings from them, which helps me move forward with lightness.

Let’s Become Messengers Of Love And Joy (Part 2)

Let's Become Messengers Of Love And Joy (Part 2) 2. Life is a rich collection of attainments which make us feel loved and give us an experience of joy. There are so many things in life – the people we spend our time with, our education, our physical health, our career, our personality, our wealth etc. Now happiness does not mean that all these things will always be perfect. In fact, it is the opposite. They will never be perfect. So, everyday talk to yourself positively and don't absorb their negativity. On the other hand, make your nature divine and full of immense love and joy. In a world of uncertainity and ups and downs, God wants us to be messengers of love and joy for everyone. There are people who are more sorrowful than us and even less loved. Hold their hand with your care and support. While meeting people, always remember – I am a very special soul and full of love and joy, which is God's invisible property which I have inherited from Him. I will remain stable in different scenes of life and help those who are unstable or disturbed by their negative scenes. 3. Create No Anger Zones in your workplace and home. There are offices in the corporate world where such zones have been created. In such places, positive thoughts are shared by email or through mobile phone chat or social media and everyone starts their day with messages on positivity, which lays the foundation of a positive day. Also, everyone remembers that they are in a No Anger Zone and it is displayed in some way to remind everyone. In such a zone, angry outbursts and over loud talk, aggressive behavior, revengeful behavior and negative talk about others are not allowed. This can be done in your office or in your home with children and other family members. Such zones will then become Zones of Love and Joy instead. (To be continued tomorrow …) Message for the day Words filled with good wishes bring change in others. Expression: When there are good wishes combined with the words that I speak, there is love. Whatever is spoken with love has its effect on others. Such words are free from all kind of negativity, so they naturally have a lot of power. Only such powerful words can bring about a change in others. Experience: When I speak with love and good wishes, I find that I am light, knowing that I have no selfishness in whatever I have said. The others too are able to immediately correct themselves. This also enables me to gain good wishes for having taken them a step forward.

Let’s Become Messengers Of Love And Joy (Part 1)

Let's Become Messengers Of Love And Joy (Part 1) Life is a beautiful journey in which the best experience for all of us is one of love and joy. Love and joy accompany us right from the time we are born and we grow up with them in our hearts. We live our complete life sharing these two lovely emotions with everyone and receiving the same. Also, it is seen that every purpose that human beings possess is focused on these two emotions and their experience. Yes, they are important and the foundation of a beautiful life experience at any age, but at the same time it is important to note that love and joy is not increasing in the world with time, but decreasing. Today, people are drifting away from each other much sooner and more easily than before and also everyone's hearts are not as filled with good wishes for each other, as before. In fact, expectations and desires are two main negative energies, which are reducing love and joy in the world, the most. Let's become messengers of love and joy for the world by doing the following: 1. Every morning, create a pure feeling of love for everyone in the world, especially each and every person whom you meet and come across the whole day – your friends, relations, office colleagues and of course family. As you wake up in the morning, take a morning pledge – Each and everyone is my close one and I have a beautiful relationship with them, which I want to make more beautiful with my every nice word and action and every other gesture. I am responsible for making every relationship of my life to work well and without problems. Also, create the affirmation regularly in the day - I want to make every relationship of mine rich with qualities of contentment, understanding, acceptance, humility, sacrifice and an attitude of giving. (To be continued tomorrow …) Message for the day To consider problems to be a game is to move forward with lightness. Expression: Even when the most difficult problem comes my way, I am able to give my best when I understand the significance of whatever is happening.  Because I never experience being subservient to the problem, I am always a master. Experience: When I understand that problems are just a game, I am able to play whatever part I have to, externally.  But internally I will experience lightness knowing that this is the part I have to play.  It would be easy to understand the significance of the part that I am playing and remain happy.
