Do you have time to watch flowers in your life? It is an
awesome experience to look at their beauty, inhale the sweet fragrance, feel the
tender petals and let the eyes soak in those divine colors!
While I was collecting flowers for my morning puja, as I
looked at these flowers, something stirred deep inside me. See how the colors
are arranged in these petals, and the stalks. Every flower of the same type is
always having the same design. Who is doing this? The Universe? God?
We are our own enemies
Whoever it is doing this, must be doing similar things for
the human beings too, isn’t it? Or do you think we don‘t belong to the Universal
grid? Whatever is needed for our survival is always provided by the same
intelligence.
What I have seen in life is, things that are destined to
come to us, will always come...provided we step out of the way. But due to our
over anxiety, we create obstructions and in several instances I have seen
clearly how people mess up their lives, by their own doing.
The two stands
We can take two stands- one is that everything is predestined,
have total faith in that, which takes away the tension. By just keeping on
doing our duties (karma according to dharma), we can just let the life unfold
and enjoy.
Second approach is to think that you are your destiny maker.
This has a problem because we take into account only this life, which is like
mistaking the ending of a chapter for the ending of a book. Depending on the
culmination of our previous lives, we decide the blue print of our life, before
we incarnate. Unfortunately, it is not present in our conscious mind.
Our subconscious mind knows this very well and is always
steering our life in the right direction. By allowing the conflict between the conscious
and subconscious mind, we just make our lives a burning hell!
The way out
So, what is the way out? We have to have total trust on either
the Universal master mind or our subconscious mind, and just keep doing our
duties. Whatever results come, we have to whole heartedly accept that it is
just going according to the plan of one of the above. What is the result? Every
moment will be filled with peace and bliss. Don’t you covet such a sate?
