Discussion with God - Just place yourself as ME

2010-01-01T11:01:00.000-08:00

Thanks to the original writer.Here it goes.........

God:Hello... Did you call me?
Me: Called you? No.. who is this?
God: This is GOD.I heard your prayers. So I thought I will chat.

Me: I do pray. Just makes me feel good. I am actually busy now. I am in the midst of something..
God: What are you busy at? Ants are busy too.

Me: Don't know. But I cant find free time. Life has become hectic. It's rush hour all the time.
God: Sure. Activity gets you busy. But productivity gets you results.
Activity consumes time. Productivity frees it.

Me: I understand. But I still cant figure it out. By the way, I was not expecting YOU to buzz me on instant messaging chat.
God: Well I wanted to resolve your fight for time, by giving you some clarity. In this net era, I wanted to reach you through the medium you are comfortable with.

Me: Tell me, why has life become complicated now?
God: Stop analyzing life. Just live it. Analysis is what makes it complicated.

Me: why are we then constantly unhappy?
God: Your today is the tomorrow that you worried about yesterday.You are worrying because you are analyzing. Worrying has become your habit. That's why you are not happy.

Me: But how can we not worry when there is so much uncertainty?
God: Uncertainty is inevitable, but worrying is optional.

Me: But then, there is so much pain due to uncertainty..
God: Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional.

Me: If suffering is optional, why do good people always suffer?
God: Diamond cannot be polished without friction.Gold cannot be purified without fire. Good people go through trials, but don't suffer. With that experience their life becomes better not bitter.

Me: You mean to say such experience is useful?
God: Yes. In every terms, Experience is a hard teacher. She gives the test first and the lessons afterwards.

Me: But still, why should we go through such tests? Why can't we be free from problems?
God: Problemsare PurposefulRoadblocksOfferingBeneficialLessons (to) EnhanceMentalStrength. Inner strength comes from struggle and endurance, not when you are free from problems.

Me: Frankly in the midst of so many problems, we don't know where we are heading..
God: If you look outside you will not know where you are heading. Look inside. Looking outside, you dream. Looking inside, you awaken.Eyes provide sight. Heart provides insight.

Me: Sometimes not succeeding fast seems to hurt more than moving in the right direction. What should I do?
God: Successis a measure as decided by others. Satisfactionis a measure as decided by you.Knowing the road ahead is more satisfying than knowing you rode ahead. You work with the compass. Let others work with the clock.

Me: In tough times, how do you stay motivated?
God: Always look at how far you have come rather than how far you have to go.Always count your blessing, not what you are missing.

Me: What surprises you about people?
God: when they suffer they ask, "why me?" When they prosper, they never ask "Why me". Everyone wishes to have truth on their side, but few want
to be on the side of the truth.

Me: Sometimes I ask, who am I, why am I here. I can't get the answer.
God: Seek not to find who you are, but to determine who you want to be. Stop looking for a purpose as to why you are here. Create it. Life is not a process of discovery but a process of creation.

Me: How can I get the best out of life?
God: Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without fear.

Me: One last question. Sometimes I feel my prayers are not answered.
God: There are no unanswered prayers. At times the answer is NO.

Me: Thank you for this wonderful chat. I am so happy to start the New Day with a new sense of inspiration.
God: Well. Keep the faith and drop the fear. Don't believe your doubts and doubt your beliefs. Life is a mystery to solve, not a problem to resolve......

Love and Peace [:)]

Live like a Spirit.....and not just body.....

2010-01-01T10:43:00.000-08:00

There is always duality in everything........anything u can think of has duality.....anything u consider......even an electron has duality...so one aspect is this life and other aspect would be after we leave this incarnation.......so nothing is good-bad as such....just two aspects in everything....just flowing like "energy'.Its so mysterious yet marvellous creation which we are experiencing thru various senses and means.Now its ur wish which aspect u choose to be synchronised with.
Just be good,feel good,think good,do good,eat good,breath good,see good,hear good and live good.
Try to be as much positive as possible thru ur good Karmas (which includes everything I mentioned above and infact more) and live ur life to the fullest.I am not saying here to take "Vairagya" to anyone.........just live like a "Soul" with full "awareness" and manifest as much as possible upto ur capacity. When u live like this u get in align with God or that "Source" of all positivity and goodness and hence "He" takes care of ur rest of the things because u are already "His" part.
There is no limit to write or discuss on this topic.
So in short...................We must remember we r not just a body.......we are much more than this........we are divine souls.....a source of powerful positive energy manifested in Human form.........so there is no need of any negativity and falling in morals and standards......
Just "Do Good.........Live Good"
"Jyada Sochne ka nahi bus mast Jeene ka".Heard this song ------>"Maut ka bhi darr nahi ye jaake aasman main dahad do..........kya jindagi hai thokro pe maar do" ? ...if not listen once...... will feel good and on top of ur being.

Love n peace [:)]

We live @ level we think,feel,speak and act !!

2009-11-04T23:03:00.000-08:00

All are important - first thought , then feelings and then words.....all are forms of energy with difference in level of impact and that also varies for person to person.
So in whatever way a person "feels good" and is able to follow "The Secret" he/she shud go for it, I mean - whether its living @ level we speak or living @ the level we think or living@ the level we feel or all three !
While, thoughts are ofcourse the finest and hence most powerful manifestation of energy which directly connects us with that divinity,so is the word which does the same work but indirectly and influencing our vibrations gradually............basically its all abt "what kind of vibrations we are living in" !!
By being aware of our words that we speak and by having genuine emotion n feeling attached to that word, we can change our vibrations and our "Aura" !!
We really live @ the level of thoughts,feelings,words and actions !!
While feeling is the "invisible" acknowledgement and feeback mechanism, words and actions are the "visible" acknowledgement and feedback to what we are thinking !!
I think its not about languages, we are not talking here about what language we are speaking , but its about what "kind" (positive or negative) of "words" (energy) we are using....right ?
Remember doctor Asthana in movie Munna Bhai MBBS ?whenever he used to get so angry n excited in negative way over Munna, he used to say some utter nonsense and bad language and that very moment he also used to say "Ohh what am I saying".......so watch what we are saying .......................as its making a feedback loop with our thoughts and feelings !!
Would like to have some input on my view for more clarity and understanding !!
Thanks all,God is Blessing us all......Happy Creating and Manifesting !!

My learning,knowledge and foresight !!

I think that awakening and empowering our Solar Plexes is nothing but what is known as "Kundlini Jagran" in our Indian mysticism.I am the person who believes in previous incarnations and so in "Law of karma" from one birth to other and so on. So what we desire gets manifested not only as per our "karma" of present time but it depends on Karmas of previous births also whose "ganit" is stored in our subconscious mind(thats my way of feeling and understanding it, I may be wrong).So Saints and Siddhas even say that u can change ur bad Karmas of previous time thru meditation or thru Good Karma of present time for e.g like Selfless service and other good,positive deeds which are in harmony with Universe or GOD and its nothing but converting negative energy into positive energy (thats what I feel and understand as per my intellect,I may be wrong).For this reason we are taught (in normal language) to do Good to others and be a good person in life.
Therefore,we can press on to the greater achievements and manifestations of our desires through Good Karmas and by being in harmony with total positivity which is Universe.Expression of good karma is different from person to person , like one may be engaged in one good work and other may be engaged in some other kind of good work or Karma.For example Mother Teresa,Mahatma Gandhi,Einstein,Rockfeller,Ram Dev baba and even people like Sachin,Lata Mangeshkar etc... all have spread so much positivity and manifested so much in life in accordance with universal laws but in different ways.
I would also like to mention here that often "Karma" is understood as work which we execute thru our hands or physical body only but its not like that. "karma" is anything, its impression put on ur "chitta" , even a thought is a karma, a feeling is a karma.
So I believe that this birth is according to the Karmas of previous birth and we are lucky to be incarnated as Human as we have the power to change our Karmas n destiny thru working on our Solar Plexus.
Now it depends, whether we are doing it knowingly or unknowingly,and by one kind of positive "karma" or by some other kind of positive "karma".....but every one is doing it...and this all varies from person to person !!

So be totally positive and thus be in total harmony with Universe !!

And as one scientist mentioned in movie "The Secret"...the coming Era is not abt science,space , Star treks or etc.......it will be about "Mind" and we are on that journey, we are approaching it thru generation to generation. Time will come when human will become so intellectual and learned and stuffs like Kundilini Jagran , working on subconscious mind etc..will become common and every Human will become most powerful and total blissful. And I think we all members of this community are a part of it hence we are here, hence we have attracted "The Secret", this community , my this post which I am typing now, in our lives, its all so mystical , so brilliant !!

God is Blessing us All !! [:)]

Enjoy whatever comes ur way !!

When I finish this project, then I will be happy! When this situation is resolved, I will be fine. When I reach my goal, I will finally relax, be peaceful! To surf in the Ocean is to understand where the waves are coming from and which ones to take. Maybe what life is asking of you is different from the responses you were trained to give to it. To be successful in the Ocean needs effort and positioning. Catch the right wave. The objective of the surfer is to enjoy the ride, to have fun. In the same way, do not postpone your happiness; enjoy whatever comes your way.

making intellect refined !!

2009-10-30T08:18:00.000-07:00

In order to make your intellect refined, talk to yourself and talk to God with your heart. Don't just make complaints and demands. Allow your intellect to become peaceful. Forget anything that has to do with the body or - bodily - relations. As He is nonphysical, make yourself nonphysical with your thoughts; then have a conversation with Him. He will listen to the things of your heart and give you a response.

We all are largely prejudiced,most of which is contributed by the social environment we take birth in and live in.For example .. by our parents,by our social culture etc....But the thing to be understood is- we are all free..all are small components of that one Giant.So whatever originality and power "That" contains so do we.To put it in short - We have free will to change ourselves completely,to change our thought pattern,to change our belief system,to change our views,our idealogies,our way to look at world and situations.Its true that its not that easy or that obvious ..again that thing depends on individual's Will Power and varies accordingly.We see at things not as they are but as we want to see it knowingly or unknowingly...through conscious or unconscious mind respectively.One biggest and deepest thing for example which we inherit is finding faults or looking at drawbacks of other persons be it a family member, a friend or anybody and sometimes even considering self OK and still blaming and commenting about drawback of other person and holding it responsible for our failures or difficulties or unease.
Thats the biggest pitfall which we carry,to which we put ourselves in.Whatever the scenerio the only Truth of life or for this Universe is Its me who is to change ,its me who is capable of everything ....and everything means literally everything.Am not here to look for imperfections and judge around.I am here to develop my immunity and dormant power of my free will to overcome any kind of negativity or fallacy which I think is around me.That way only I will grow and rise.Its me who have to check my approach for situations in life and change accordingly everytime.I am capable of anything,any change.Its me who have to look at brighter sides,possibilities,desire and work for them to fulfill them.I should have that "Junoon", that focuss on whatever I want to manifest or whatever I want myself to be of a kind.Just have passion and single minded concentration to bring it into reality.Practicality is wisdom,its only intelligence.Love urself and manifest urself .The moment you focuss negatively to someone or something,u throwing out valuable positive energy stored in you for wastage.Instead manifest it,keep it with urself and keep changing or adjusting urself keeping overall a positive stance in every situation and leave rest of the world or things on its own.You focuss on what u want and keep moving on and on in life!!!!
God Bless !!!

My experience !!!

Sufferings,pain,sorrow etc negative emotions and feelings are best teachers.Its also true that these are just state of mind,we feel sad because we allow such thoughts and feelings to make room in our "mann".Such things doesnt exist in real.Whatever be the cirsumstances and incidents,we must follow that we are born to be in peace and bliss always.Its our negative aspect of personality that we get caught by all kind of negative energies.Actually every one , every thing is divine.We must learn to tap that divinity in ourself through out life so that we can lead ours lives wisely and also influence world in which we are living in a positive way.No one is bad , stop looking for mistakes and negative things in others.Its always me who is responsible.I am happy because of myself,I am in trouble and sorrow because of myself.Its foolishness to consider oneself quite learned and wise.Even after living whole life we cant become wise perfectly.We never know whats that limit.Our aim should be to discover true self , to discover and harness that "divinty" that "soul" that positive,blissful "energy",that "atman" in us.Thats the only truth, thats only correct,thats only pure,thats only wise thing.Even after knowing this fact , its not easy to stuck to it and follow it through out life by always keeping this in mind.Because our negative tendencies are very powerful.Our body related "vikaras" are very much powerful.The impact of wordly things and feelings is much much powerful.Still we must try to stick to this truth by conscious remembrance and meditation always.If we feel negative for anything or any person be it related to me or to other person actually its me only who is harming myself.With negative emotion and feeling be it of any kind and related to anything we can never reach to success and that glory which we deserve by birth.which is our right as a divine soul.So we must try to be always in peace with self and that is possible only by realising that divinity in/of oneself.Nothing is bad,nothing is negative,nothing is wrong thats what we must know always.
God Bless All...

Learn to forgive!!

2009-02-13T23:09:00.001-08:00

To forgive is to give correction. When there is forgiveness, the harm of the mistake is forgotten. The mistake itself is remembered only to the extent that the correction is to be given. So there are no negative feelings expressed even while giving correction. And the words that are used are few but prove to be very effective. When we learn the art of forgiving we are able to be free from the burden of negative and waste thinking. So there is never any difficulty in giving correction when necessary. The mind is free from the attitudes of the past and it creates harmony in relationships even if the opinions or personalities don't match.

Very true yet undisclosed !!

2009-02-13T02:40:00.000-08:00

"Wow...that's beautiful!" Is either a cry or a thought when faced with the mountain sunset, a spectacular view or a well formed man or woman. But where is the beauty, where is the appreciation of beauty, where is the ability to discern beauty? It is within our own consciousness. For the essence of who and what we are is beauty itself. The essence of beauty is not found in the body, a face or a mountain - they only stir the essence of beauty within our own spirit. And that beauty is not only something we taste within ourselves, but it emerges in our character as virtue, and in our life as care. For what is virtue, but love in action. The next time you say, "That's beautiful!" know that you speak of yourself, and it is you who are beautiful. Always were, always will be.

As you sow so you reap!!!!

2009-02-13T02:27:00.000-08:00

If we plant a positive, clean seed of thoughts and concentrate on it, we give it energy, like the sun gives to a seed in the earth. And as the seed in the earth awakens, stirs and begins to grow, the thoughts on which we concentrate awaken, stir and begin to grow. So let us sow positive thoughts. Each morning before we begin the journey of the day let us sit still, in silence, and sow the seed of peace. Peace is harmony and balance. Peace is - freedom from the burden of negativity and wastefulness. Let peace find its home within us. Peace is our original strength, our eternal tranquility of being.

This is what I feel.

2009-01-16T02:23:00.000-08:00

Life is beautiful,it becomes more beautiful if we learn to enjoy it through good deeds!! now its a big question-what is "good"? I am unable to answer it ,because the definition of good veries for person to person , both "definition" and "quantity" varies infact from person to person and accordingly varies the satisfaction and fullfilment in one's life.Now it may sound nonsense or uninteresting to many, no surprise, as to see the light outside you need to have required cells in your ratina, so to feel what I said above and what I mean , one needs to have atleast a bit of it already present in one's "mann".
God Bless All.

There is benefit for you in every situation. If, that is, you know how to look for it. The idea behind steady spiritual progress is to see every circumstance and situation (particularly those that challenge you) as a tailor-made lesson in your personal plan for self- development. For example, in a situation where hurtful or angry words were exchanged, why not see it as the chance either to perceive things about your own character which need changing or to rehearse some virtue or quality that you need to put into practice more often? Actually, we should be grateful for the opportunity to evaluate ourselves. In this way you can transform anything into a constructive lesson. Never think that you've learned enough and now can stop. You should love it when people try to correct you or give you advice. It keeps you alert and gives you plenty of opportunity to put your truth into practice. It's a sign of great danger to be unable to accept criticism and instead use your understanding to criticise others.Realise deeply the significance of every moment, and your spiritual progress will be assured.

The one who has the aim to be perfect is the one who learns from obstacles. The higher the aim, the more the obstacles that comes one's way. Just as a perfect idol is one that has been chiseled a great deal, each obstacle comes to remove some or the other defect from within. The one, who understands this little secret, is able to use each obstacle as a beautiful learning for growth, and a chance to express the best qualities from within. When we are committed to bringing out our inner perfection, we are never deterred by the temporary situations that come our way. We move on with confidence, taking time to look within and recognize the hidden potential within us. We are able to get closer and closer to the perfection that we always seek.
