WORK ON WORKOUTS
WORK ON WORKOUTS!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The idea, what will happen in the future tells almost nothing about the future, but everything about our current believes, state mind of and our focus. If we focus on our character we never have to worry about our image. People & situations can never cheat or hurt us, it is only our perception of them cheats us & hurt us, for our mind perceives them through attachments and self interests with expectations, which are never bound to fulfill the same. The real thief is "worrying." It takes away our energy & time & make us function at a lower energy. Anything done at a lower energy will be poor, mistakes are likely.
To be aware of little, quiet things, we need to be quiet inside. A high degree of alertness is required. Be still --Look--- Listen---Be present---Be positive. Our mind does not know that if it goes to the outside world, there is nothing permanent that can be achieved and so it keeps running out in ignorance. When it gets the maturity, it will go inside by itself. Until then, it is our job to put it inside with effort - which is called DHARMA KARMA- Right Action.
Right Action is possible only when we have right understanding of ourselves that is stored in our belief system. It is our experiences become the source of our understanding of persons & situations. When something happens just the opposite or less of what we expect, we get stuck there either by becoming victim or stubborn. There comes the apt rescue - Surrender - BHAKTHI VAIRAGYAM - Right Attitude - Acceptance!
Surrender is not weakness. Only a surrendered person has spiritual power. Most of our mental suffering comes from how tightly we hold our beliefs & thoughts. It’s not the outer situations that entangle us, but it is the inner clinging, misapprehensions...! Through surrender, we will be free internally of the situation. The mind changes from Stubborn Mind to Strong mind! We will be free to--Accept everything when it comes--Enjoy everything while it lasts--Let go off everything when it goes without any worry or anxiety becos of Right understanding - Unjust never happens in HIS kingdom.
For the Right understanding to be predominant in us, the Right thought patterns are inevitable. Whole day, if we keep entertaining negative informations--> forming negative opinions-->feeling disturbed...then, acceptance & accomodative-ness cannot be our attitude rather, opinionated, grumbling, complaining, judging...will be! People eat rubbish and then wonder why they are unhealthy or obese. They listen to crap and wonder why their minds are sick! So..Right thought patterns - GYĀNA DHYĀNAM is inevitable. Right intake --> Healthy body. Similarly Right inputs--> Healthy thoughts patterns.
The ultimate test of knowledge is self transformation. Knowledge is of use only if it brings a profound change in yourself. Make sure that your knowledge is qualitative, not just quantitative. The quality of understanding is important, not the quantity of information. There is nothing mysterious about the way we are. It is all very clear & obvious through the way, we think, we feel, we vibrate.. all our own doing, the natural result of a simple process of cause and effect. Now again it is going to be precisely our doing, but this time, wise doing, which combats our wrong doing/attached doing/ignorant doing/selfish doing.
Every person must find their own answers to the existential questions. Others' answers will not satisfy you unless they are supported by your own experience. You may arrive at the same answer as someone else's, as the given formula to arrive at is same to all ..but it must be the result of your own quest, your own workouts...not borrowed/copied from others.
