Good Mantras

REJOICE

Be happy. Life is too short to let it pass in sorrow. Smile, be cheerful. There is no greater treasure and wealth than the twinkle in your eye that joy brings. Reach out to that bliss that makes your heart dance and don’t be shy to rejoice and celebrate life. Don’t live in an illusion that too much happiness is not good for life. Go make someone happy today and you will be happy. To rejoice, you may have to re-choice, choose different things, people and circumstances but it is better to change than to continue living in misery for the rest of your life. If you truly want to live, rejoice. Be happy today and everyday for the rest of your life. And the good news is that you can. You can choose to be Happy.


VALUE LIFE

Do you value life? Do you consider it to be your greatest gift, your most valuable treasure or do you just drag through life? Life is a beautiful journey for those who value it, for those who catch hold of it and don’t let it escape. To them, life is more valuable than money because every fleeting moment of life that is gone is gone forever. So, they treasure every moment, every day. They really value life. Do you value life? Do you give it all you have got? Are you excited about life or are you just letting it slip away? Have your days, months and years escaped you? It is not too late. Stop now. Transform your life and live.


MAKE A DIFFERENCE

What is the purpose of your life? Does your life have some meaning and direction? May be it could be your passion to make a difference. Either you can choose to live life meaninglessly or you can get excited about living a legacy, about doing something that will remain long after you are gone. There are countless opportunities for each one of us to make a difference. Be it to serve suffering humanity or just by simply sharing our life experiences. Each of these are capable of making a big difference. Life becomes beautiful when it is lived with a purpose and still more glorious if that purpose is to make a difference.

Let go and trust

I have grappled for long, wondering why the wounds of the past kept surfacing time and again. Why do the patterns all seem so familiar that I can almost predict the oncoming catastrophe? Maybe, it’s my mind that creates the catastrophe and gives it the space to unravel. For one thing, there is something to be healed.

There is a wound, I must acknowledge and be aware of it. I need not help it to grow, I have to let it be healed; and it will be healed only when I move to the roots. I only need to use less of the head for the wound to heal and stop the conflict between the mind and the soul; with no head there is no wound. The mind and soul have to merge and emerge to its higher sense...as a total being that is wholesome.

The only way is total acceptance as a way of life, whatsoever happens. I will allow myself to feel the energy of words and let the emotions flow through me. It is time when the deeply buried wounds of the past come to the surface, ready and available to be healed. I want to stretch open my arms and allow my soul to stand naked, vulnerable and open to the loving touch of existence. Allow my aura to be full of light and let the quality of relaxation, caring and love that surrounds me dissolve all struggle and suffering. I do not want to hide from myself or others.

Just let go and trust the universe….
