I am reminded of the parable where Jesus, when asked to throw stones as punishment, said that whoever is free of sin may cast the first stone.

I caught myself acting out of righteousness and feeling entitled recently. I pledge to remind myself of this story the next time I am in a self-righteous space. I will honor my imperfections and strive a little bit harder.

Gratitude with humility for the awareness my lovely daughters inspire in me.

Blessings

I maintained a gratitude journal for years until it became a deeply ingrained habit. Every minute is spent in the attitude of “wow this” “wow that”. I have trained myself to appreciate even the most minuscule of happenings during my day and live in joy and bliss each moment.

My joy knew no bounds when my lovely daughters started a gratitude channel for our family of 3. Each one is required to post at least one entry per day. We could also post several entries on any given day as well.

I am sharing this to inspire and motivate some of you who might wish to form small groups within your communities to express gratitude on a regular basis. It can be for the most trivial reasons like a lovely cuppa tea, a hot shower, a comfortable bed, and heated homes. The list is endless.

Gratitude keeps me in good shape and I’d like to share the gratitude movement with each one of you in 2023.

I humbly seek your blessings

I am often asked about the purpose of this human life.

My very humble understanding is that we are required to eliminate our karmic residue by constantly turning vice into virtue. How might we translate this into our everyday life would be the next logical question.

Wisdom points me to keep a spiritual understanding as the primary focus in my life path.
We are sometimes horrified at the actions that some perform, which we can understand as the other giving us what they have nurtured in their lives. If deceit is another person’s way of having an upper hand, they might think that they are smart and clever. What they may not understand is that they are deceiving none other than themselves. I always remind myself of this.

What then must we do? We must keep our focus on the wisdom and turn the negatives into positives within ourselves. This is the Divine way of how we are actually being turned into gold, slowly but surely, and these experiences will become a rejoicing process.

My dearest precious treasures,

I almost forgot to post from a mini vacation with my little princess who’s visiting me after a grueling semester at law school.
I exercise tremendous love and care looking for gifts that will be of value for my loved ones. I decided to gift my little one a spa vacation for the holidays this year at a Moroccan-inspired hotel in the Hungarian countryside. I checked it out reading the reviews and the usual drill one indulges in during these high tech days that we are living. I put no effort in building up imaginations of how the place would be. Upon arrival, we were impressed at the facility, their services and the entire experience which served the purpose of my gift quite sweetly.
Once again, I recognized how important it is to have very little expectations. We must put in effort and then let go of the results. This is the secret of a well lived, happy life. Let’s strive to live in the present moment, planning what we absolutely must and letting go of how our efforts yield fruit.

Happy Holidays!

Love and care are my default way of being. Is that love and care serving me when I love others more than I love myself? My learnings over the past years has been to let go of this love and care and give more dignity to myself. I still continue loving but am ensuring that I give myself dignity rather than undermining my well being. The joy and bliss that I experience as a result is beyond explanation. There is not an iota of resentment within me which is a feeling of freedom and liberation.
Hope this post inspires some of you to make some small tweaks in your relationships.

I seek your blessings

During a conversation with a client recently, he mentioned how his mind can be his biggest enemy. He lives a mindful, conscientious life, and often comes across people who he believes live life without a thought and care. I gave him a reflection on how grateful he could be to exhibit the sensitivities that he possesses and he began to appreciate and value this due to the mindset shift that I shared with him.
Those of us who live life sensitively often find ourselves getting hurt very easily. We cannot understand how the other is insensitive and uncaring compared to ourselves. What we must consciously remind ourselves when this happens is that this person has appeared in our journey to help us move past our inflated sense of self. We are being guided towards wearing the robe of humility with deep felt gratitude at being blessed with a kind and caring way of being. I assure you that the judgement, anger and tension will rapidly dissipate.
Finally, each one defines sensitivity based on their own truths and values. Let there be no judgement towards anyone is what I remind myself constantly.

The quality of our interpersonal relationships defines the meditative and spiritual practices that we follow and we can bring the learnings into daily living and the complexities of life. Let us examine ourselves today and work on tweaking/dropping one unwholesome habit. The peace and joy that you shall experience is beyond explanation. Question your expectation of how life must manifest and notice if this causes tension within yourself? If so, you might need to let go of some emotions and learn to look within yourself to change. Bring in the mindset of acceptance and focus on your well being. Yes, you deserve it.

Inflation and the cost of living crisis around the world has put tremendous pressure and challenges in the lives of many. Yet, Christmas sales, promotions and advertisements have been bombarding our senses every minute of the day since early November this year.
The media has been sending out messages of a perfect Christmas meal, an enormous Christmas tree with big expensive presents below. The pressure of a perfect Christmas puts many in a state of anxiety, worry and panic.
The holidays are about love, care, kindness, and giving the best that each one has based on his circumstances. Let us remind ourselves of this running up to Christmas and create a sense of well being, joy and happiness for ourselves as well as our loved ones.

Happy Holiday season!

I was blown away with a realization that I had during a coaching conversation. I was explaining to a client about the negativity bias of the brain, the concept of Velcro-ing the positive and Teflon-ing the negative as a practice. I went on further to explain the good news about the neuroplastic nature of the brain. We are able to transform and reshape/rewrite our wiring until the very last second of our earthly journey.

The enormity of the Powerful Creator/Universe, depending on how you approach the concept, suddenly hit me. We have an infinite number of possibilities every moment, which gives us the ability to make powerful choices. Grace is shining down upon each one of us every second of the day. What choices are we exercising in order to tap into the power of Divine Grace?

I was so shaken up by the experience and was humbled with awe and wonder as always.
Wishing a Happy Thanksgiving weekend to my American readers. May your homes be blessed with enough.

With wonder for you to ponder upon.

Being an empath can be quite exhausting. An empath is always concerned about other people’s needs and dignity and in doing so can rob themselves of their own dignity and self worth.

An empath can be formed as a result of life circumstances that forced them to become this way due to the peace getting disrupted. It is an acquired trait of survival. As a result the empath can find themselves surrounded by people who deplete them. They may then get frustrated and angry due to the judgments and grudges harbored within. And then immediately feel bad about this.
The circle of ups and downs continues in their lives.

Lessons to be learnt:
Give yourselves the dignity and self worth before saving the world.
When anger overcomes, stop and assess.
Set boundaries
Peace must be the net result at all times

Once a being learns to do these, they start walking on water.

In the spirit of service.
