The real sign of serenity is not seen so much in the face, as found in the depth and stillness of the eyes.

[color:"orange"]Your World[/color]
A loving person lives in a loving world. A hostile person lives in a hostile world. Your world is your mirror.
************************************************************

************************************************************
If you speak badly of others, the negative energy that you put out into the universe, will return to you. The same is true of positive energy.

************************************************************
Humility is rare because to have it you have to want nothing, yet when you have it you get everything.

[color:"Blue"]Remind Yourself[/color]
If you know a little of yourself, you will have realised that you are more than meets your eyes in the mirror in the morning. What you see is not what you are. You see the form not the content, the body not the soul, the matter not the mind. In quiet and profound moments, we innately know that is true. But we forget. The world tells us and wants us to believe that we are what we see - and we take the easy way out. We believe. That's why the awakening of spirit and the flowering of our spirituality (nothing to do with religion) means we have to keep reminding ourselves, a hundred times a day, I am a soul - not a body, I am an eternal spirit - not a perishable piece of meat. I am quality, not quantity. I am. Otherwise, freedom is not possible. And if we are not free, in the deepest space inside our own being, we cannot be truly happy.

[color:"silver"]Reflecting[/color]
Let my eyes be a mirror for others, reflecting only the best and finest qualities.

[color:"Blue"]Silence [/color]
In silence lies the ability to listen; to listen to ourselves, to others and to God. Listening is a lost art. Without it we cannot communicate, we cannot relate to each other and so we cannot live life meaningfully. We need to learn to listen. Sitting in silence allows us to listen to ourselves and to understand. This silence can heal. The worries, the pain can be healed when we listen. Spiritual medicine is ever-present in the soul. Whenever we need it, to whatever extent we need it, we can find it within.

Sweetness is the taste of all virtues. Patience is the fortress of all virtues. Cheerfulness is the evidence of all virtues.

[color:"Purple"]Spiritual Growth[/color]
When I grow, I automatically change. If I fear change, how will I be able to grow?
************************************************************

************************************************************
[color:"Purple"]Spiritual Awareness[/color]
Spiritual awareness (soul-consciousness) is cultivated through deliberate practice and only those who have understood the need for this kind of true, inner, self-respect will make the effort. Difficulties will arise to test your resolve for self-upliftment - physical illness, relationships, memories of the past, and so on. Yet with patience and introspection, you will come to see how these very tests are the means to strengthen your spiritual identity.

************************************************************
[color:"Blue"]Free[/color]
“If I have no expectations of others, I remain uninfluenced by their behaviour towards me and leave them free to be themselves.”
************************************************************

************************************************************
[color:"Pink"]Appreciation [/color]
Even if I don't mean to be critical, I often unconsciously home in on others' weaknesses and mistakes, The more I develop the habit of noticing goodness and only holding onto the good in others and situations, the more my own sense of well-being will rise. When I continually think: "He/she is wrong", I create a barrier that prevents me from reaching my own goodness.
************************************************************

************************************************************
[color:"Green"]In Tune[/color]
To be in tune with yourself, go beyond the sound of thoughts, the sound of feelings and especially beyond the sound of what, how, when, who and why.
************************************************************

************************************************************
[color:"Red"]Comparison with Others [/color]
Comparing yourself with others will leave you vulnerable on three counts: you'll either feel inferior, superior or impressed. All three of these states are dangerous because they all disregard the underlying principle of our true connection with each other - mutual love and regard, based on independently generated self-esteem. To protect yourself from this vulnerability, make sure that your attention remains turned within, towards the spiritual experience of pure pride. Staying centred in your elevated self-respect will help you remain undisturbed by others around you. Keep asking yourself, "Who am I?" "How would my spiritual personality respond to this event or person?" this will help to centre you further, and allow you to enjoy the successful efforts of others.

[color:"Yellow"]Light [/color]
There is some darkness in most human minds today, so there is a darkness component in most scenes and situations. Why else is there so much unhappiness and sorrow in the world? So how much value can be given to someone who is able to bring light and lightness to a place or a moment, where others have brought their dark? Like a crown of sparkling jewels, their presence and their words are priceless. It may only be a gentle smile of comfort, an attitude of genuine interest, some words which diffuse an awkward moment. Those who stay light in spirit while others weave their dark are both illuminated and illuminators. Watch out for such a moment today where you may illuminate. Make that moment momentous!

************************************************************
[color:"Pink"]Let Go[/color]
Just as the bird has to find the courage to let go of the branch in order to fly, so we also must let go of our branches if we are to know the exhilaration of soaring to the highest potential of our life. The branches we hold to are our inner attachments - our beliefs, ideas and memories. And then there are the outer attachments - people, possessions, positions and privileges are a few. But as long as we hold on to them we will live in fear (of letting go and loss) and we will never be free. And just watch those birds, by letting go of one branch they are able to spend the rest of their life alighting on a million other branches, and they enjoy the view from each. Are you flying and soaring in your life, or are you stuck on one branch, watching others as they fly past. Go on, try it ...let go!************************************************************

************************************************************
[color:"Orange"]Introversion[/color]
It is extroversion that wastes our energy and makes us feel weak. In a state of introversion we think less and speak less. We then have the power to put into action whatever we think and whatever we need to do.
************************************************************

************************************************************
[color:"Blue"]Being[/color]
You spend most of your life running after things, doing things. You forget that being comes before doing. Those who remember this secret make an effort to "be" and discover that when they stop and observe, life helps and brings whatever is needed. Learning to be is learning to be at peace. It is our most fundamental nature.

[color:"Pink"]Angel [/color]
Acceptance gives me the experience of being like an angel: never judging, never criticising and never worrying. ************************************************************

************************************************************
[color:"Purple"]Happiness[/color]
Have you ever noticed that happiness is not a dependency, it is a decision? You don't actually need anything to be happy. It's not something that comes from outside, it comes from inside, and when you radiate a happy energy you'll be amazed what it attracts into your life. Don't worry, be happy...sound familiar? Decide now, be happy, and watch magic begin to enter your life.
