 OUR WEAKNESS IS OUR STRENGTH

           We came together. In fact we traveled on the same day. We were chosen by this house owner Mr.Sonu from the same shop and settled here just like twins. He treated us equally with so much of love and affection. We too were very fond of him. He placed us in the entrance of his house.

Nowadays the way he handles you is entirely different. He loves you very much. He sometimes keeps you inside the room at night not me. These were the complaints from one of the flower pots in  Mr.Sonu’s house.

           Sonu loved to decorate his house. He brought beautiful things to arrange his house. One day he purchased  two lovely flower pots to keep at the entrance of his house. It was really fabulous. Now one of the pots was not happy and lamented very badly as we heard it say.

         The pot continued to complain, I noticed when there was heavy rain.  Mr.Sonu  immediately rushed up to pick you up. When ever he entered into  the house, the first thing he did was to visit you which he had never done earlier.  Ask our friend, the wall clock which observed everything round the clock.

         The wall clock felt so proud and started defending the pot which had number of complaints against the other pot. Yes, you seem to be so attached with Mr. Sonu. He rather showed partiality in dealing with you both. I saw him taking you along with him for an outing. This poor one sat here alone depressed. The other day, while birthday celebration was going on, he was keenly arranging  you on the top.

       The other pot started speaking with tears in its eyes, my dear friend  I’m extremely sorry for making you upset. Mr.Sonu loves you and me very much. The way he takes care of us is incomparable. One day while he was shifting us from outside I got hurt and injured. He took me for an outing as our friend wall clock said, no I was taken to be repaired. He tried to patch up and I became alright for few days. The wound gave me trouble again. Then he took me to be healed and I became okay. But the injury is not cured completely, more over I got the scar permanently. Therefore he took little extra care for me during heavy rain and wind.

         I always worried that he may throw me away and I will be lost in the world. But he who is compassionate, proved his genuine love. His patience in handling me is the gesture of his unconditional love towards me. Please forgive me if you are hurt. Now the pot which was complaining gave a hug and sought sorry and the wall clock too asked sorry by tik, tik, tik.

       Our life on this earth is the expression of our compassionate master. He has a special and tremendous love for you and me . When you feel someone is treated with an extra care and love by your parents and friends please remember that they have a right reason for that as our compassionate master.

       Try not to be in a hurry to judge or complain others. Life has its own meaning and purpose. Let us not pave blocks to bury its goodness.

                           Believe that our weakness is our strength.

                                                      BUTTERFLY     SPEAKS

                                        Be just like me [ BUTTERFLY ] is an invitation. My only aim is to collect nectar from flowers. I fly from one garden to another. The wonderful flowers come in touch with me. But I have no botheration of their color, size and beauty. My prime necessity is to collect nectar. That’s all.

                                       I remain stable in the midst of comfortable and adverse situations. I am not disturbed by the very gift of nature’s beauty. My focus is never shaken by the intervention of other creatures. Determination is my great strength and conviction is my great power.

                                       My adventurous effort to seek the flowers is simply admirable. My tremendous journey to every nook and corner is something venerable.

                                       I’m very much receptive in my responsibility. I enjoy while collecting nectar, I dance while meeting flowers and I sing while reaching the garden. I love my life.

          The tips for you from me today are

•    Never give up.
•    Be determined.
•    Be receptive.
•    Be focused.
•    Be stable.                                      

                                     Friends,  be just like me is a genuine invitation which leads us towards our destination. It restricts us not to be away from our focus. The more we imbibe the essence of “Be just like a butterfly”, the more we become determined, receptive, focused and stable.

                                              Stay Blessed

                                                     JUDGING FRIENDLY

Judging friendly is really good and genuine. How, how, how?

                                    Before judging someone, try to practice judging friendly
formula. Friendly atmosphere must be created in and around you. Be friendly
with your thoughts, words and deeds. You are THE best friend of yours.

JUDGING FRIENDLY –YOUR THOUGHTS

                                   When you start judging , take a break in meeting your mind
as a friend. Talk very politely as though you are a master of your mind. Let
your dialogue to your mind be very friendly with the great concern to train it
to judge no one. Make it to understand about your insufficient efforts and incomplete
success. Let your mind know the status of your dreams.

JUDGING FRIENDLY—YOUR  WORDS

                                  When you start judging, take a break in meeting your tongue
as a friend. Speak very gently as though you are a good counselor. Let your
speech be very simple but effective in order to achieve harmless words. Make an
attempt to prove how ineffective your words were, how imprudent words you
uttered, how deeply  you  were regretted and  how promptly you desired to speak. Let your
tongue know the status of your goodness.

JUDGING FRIENDLY—YOUR  DEEDS

                                   When you start judging, take a break in meeting your face as
a friend. Communicate very softly as though you are good at face reading. Let
your interaction be very authentic with enough compassion. Try to allow your
face to understand your inability to maintain cordial relationship with others,
your awkwardness to deal with your friends and your iniquities to build up a
good rapport. Let your face know the status of your aspirations.

                                                       
PRACTICE JUDGING FRIENDLY.

                                                 LET US MAKE OUR GARDEN OF LIFE

                                                     RECIPE  to make our garden of life   :

PREPARE THE LAND:

Let us level the ground that is our heart. Keep the ground loosened. Let fresh air enter in. Allow it to breath vibrantly. Keep the heart stress free and tension free. Keep it cool yet strong.

SOW GOOD SEEDS:  

When the heart is levelled, sow good seeds. The best seeds are available in our mind. Yes, they are like I am good, I am healthy, I am kind, I am happy and so on. Sow these seeds. 

ALLOW IT TO GROW:

The seeds need our attention for their growth. Allow them to grow. Our constant awareness towards good yielding will gently allow them to grow. Let us take simple efforts to strengthen the seeds. The efforts like chanting positive quotes in our minds and repeating self affirmative statements will enhance its growth.

REMOVE WEEDS:

Let us remove the weeds which will harm its growth. The weeds like giving much importance to our weakness, worrying unnecessarily, bothering about our past and future and so on must be uprooted thoroughly. When the weeds are uprooted , we get pain and sufferings. But the sufferings will surely lead to resurrection.

WATER ENOUGH:

Let us not allow the heart to dry. Keep watering regularly. Pure thoughts are like pure water. 

ENJOY THE HARVEST:

When our life yields good harvest, let us acknowledge and cherish it. Never and ever wait for people to compliment for your tireless efforts. Our own internal dialogues will add beauty to our life.

               Let us make our garden of life very beautiful, attractive and colourful.

                                                         HEALING JOURNEY

                                 A warm welcome to one and all present here. Friends, very glad to meet you all through this virtual spiritual gathering. Thank you for your valuable presence which add more energy to this gathering. The aim of this gathering is to enrich our life style positively. Let us wish and pray for one another to embrace good health specially mental health. Before we begin let us remain in silence expressing our solidarity with all those who lost their lives during Covid 19 pandemic and all the farmers who lost their lives.

                              Today, we are going to contemplate more on mental health for which we need to be attuned with God the eternal peace giver. Then come let us invoke the divine blessings through this bhajan which will be sung by Rev.Sr.Hilda from Rome. We shall all close our eyes please.

                               Loving God, we thank you for this melodious singing by Sr. Hilda which elevated our minds and hearts towards you. Come and dwell in the midst of us so that we all may cherish comfort and consolation from you and you only. 

                               Friends, healing is the prime and first necessity of each and everyone on this earth. We all love, long,and desire for good health. Very particularly we wish to have good health of body. Believe me our mental health plays a significant role in building up physical health.

                               Stress, worries, anxieties and agony become the unavoidable things which accompany us.. These lead us to become mentally upset and sad. The universal truth is that a sound mind can create a sound body. We enjoy good health by nutritious food, sleep and exercise. But when the mind is sick food will not digest, no guarantee for sleep and no mood to exercise.  Which means we need to keep our mind healthy. Prayer, remaining calm for a while are the only way according to me to our mind healthy.

                              When our mind is free, it is easy to understand the situation, accept the people and respond to any circumstances. When the mind is free we are simply alert with what we are thinking, speaking and doing. I am not speaking something new for you but adding hope to your life.

                              It is right time for us now to focus on our mental health. Allow me to request you to join in this healing journey. We will be concentrating on this mental peace for a while. Kindly follow the procedure. Closing our eyes we will be repeating the mantra after me in your mind. While repeating gently press your palm. As we know, when we press our palm every cell is stimulated to do its function in a tremendous way. We become more vibrant and magical.

Shall we begin? Gently close your eyes. Start pressing your palm.

I AM MENTALLY HEALTHY..

I AM MENTALLY HEALTHY

I AM MENTALLY HEALTHY

I AM MENTALLY FREE.

I AM MENTALLY FREE. 

Change the hand please

Repeat in your mind while pressing

PEACE BE WITH ME

PEACE BE WITH ME

                           Friends, thank you for joining in this divine experience. When we are mentally healthy we will have variety of positive experiences. I would like to bring your attention towards the following four advantages. 

THE POWER OF SERENITY:

                        Power of serenity is nothing but the calmness of our mind. What may come in our day today life, we see that our mind remains calm. Sit for prayer, start reading, writing exam, learning, cooking, working you will easily set your mind very very calm and it acts gently yet responsibly.

                       There is a big challenge on this earth that we are unable to present mentally, right? Let us accept the reality that I need to be mentally fit and free and I have every right to enjoy mental health. Spend sometime for that improvement.

THE POWER OF TRANQUILITY:

                        It is the state of calming our hearts. For every experience and event in our lives our hearts respond or react gently, restlessly, willingly or unwillingly. But for the person who enjoys mental health it is always quite easy to interact calmly and warmly. When the heart is full of love it can speak, look, touch, work only with love for which me and you long for.

THE POWER OF PROSPERITY:

                      It is the state of calming our body. Physical fitness is very much needed and sought for. I don’t mean only doing exercise but keep your body calm and fitting to nourish super health. When this health is maintained you are blessed automatically with wealth. Yes you have the tremendous power and energy for it. No matter how young are you, old, tall, short, fat and slim be blessed by this physical fitness is my prayer for you.

THE POWER OF FIDELITY:

                     It is the expression of Wholistic health. The power of behaving wisely, genuinely, prudently and above all divinely will  be grapped by you.

                    Once again I thank you for blessing me by joining in this virtual spiritual gathering. The reflections and words the outcome of my contemplation. Please bear with me if there are mistakes. Stay mentally healthy, physically fit and spiritually growing.

                                                          STAY BLESSED

                                                        BE REAL BUT NOT PERFECT

TO BE REAL:

                         We need to be authentic in our dealings. But remember always that all with whom we deal, need not be authentic.

TO BE REAL:

                         We need to be genuine in our expressions. But remember always that to all whom we express, need not be genuine.

TO BE REAL:

                          We need to be promising in our sayings. But remember always that to whom we say, need not be promising.

TO BE REAL:

                           We need to be serving in our responsibilities. But remember always that to whom we serve, need not be responsible.

TO BE REAL: 

                           We need to be sensitive in our sharing. But remember always that to whom we share, need not be sensitive.

                                            BE REAL BUT NOT PERFECT
