Thought Pattern to Remain in Spiritual Happiness Without Any External Basis



 

This world is ever-changing, and everyone inevitably reaps the fruits of their actions. Therefore, a person should play their present role as a detached witness, perform good actions for the future, and remember that circumstances will eventually change, because no day remains the same forever.


 

Along with this, if a person reflects in this way: “With great wealth come the hassles of maintaining it—bondage, responsibilities, complicated relationships, organization, show, maintenance, and so on.


The intellect of such a person remains constantly engaged in earning, protecting, and using money. As a result, they get very little time to remember God and to earn limitless treasures by focusing their intellect on God. Furthermore, the wealthy often fall into various addictions and lusts through the influence of money. Becoming alienated from God, they trap themselves in vices. 
Therefore, I should think that, by not being excessively wealthy, I have a unique advantage.


 

I have no mansion, no vehicles, no factories, and thus no related complications. My intellect is not scattered here and there. Because of this, I have the special benefit and facility that my mind can easily turn to God alone, and my intellect is ready to hand over its reins to the Supreme Soul, Shiv Baba. I am truly fortunate to receive this opportunity to earn unlimited spiritual wealth.

Many people are inwardly broken by the ego of wealth, and this very wealth will one day turn to dust. In the Satyugi world that is soon to emerge after the great upheavals taking place in this world, we will be truly rich.

God is with those who are humble and simple. Now that we have met the Giver of Knowledge, God Himself, why should we worry?

By imbibing the virtue of contentment during this short period of difficulty—by eating simple food with a happy heart, singing the praise of the Lord, and remaining joyful—we secure our place in the ever-happy Satyugi world. Meanwhile, those wealthy people who remain absorbed in money, with their faces turned away from God, will have to leave all their wealth behind. In this awareness, I realize how fortunate I am.

 


I am infinitely better off because I have become a student of the Ever-wealthy One (God), and thus an heir to His treasures.''

By contemplating in this way, a person attains deep contentment and spiritual happiness.

This body too can become a cause of discontentment.

 


It is often said that when a person is afflicted with a severe illness, it becomes difficult for them to remain content and cheerful. Yet, even then, by stabilizing the intellect in God and maintaining elevated thoughts, one can gradually rise above bodily sorrow and experience inner peace.

Transcending Ego

Image
The ego associated with one's family lineage, caste, and nationality is rooted in body consciousness. From a spiritual perspective, the soul belongs to the family of God, the Supreme Soul. By this definition, all souls are brothers and sisters. The true nationality of all souls exists in Paramdham, Parlok, and Brahmalok, and their caste is incorporeal and in point form.   However, when individuals identify solely with their physical body, they may develop an ego stemming from their birth in a so-called "high-class" family, their origins from Rajasthan—known for its courageous Rajputs—or their caste identity as Thakur, among other identifiers. If one remembers their divine family as a point of light and embraces the peaceful world of Paramdham, alongside their soulful connections, they are less likely to cling to the egos tied to nationality, family, or caste. Likewise, considerations of money, status, fame, and position are all associated with the body. In the role of a l...

The power of silence - Union of relationships and values between souls

Image
Silence is a potent form of presence and listening. Silence allows partners to connect on a deeper, intuitive level. It creates a sacred space where the noise of the world and internal chatter quietens down.  The power of silence within relationships is profound, acting as a fertile ground where genuine values and deep connections can flourish. In these moments of quietude, empathy grows, allowing us to reflect deeply on our partner’s experiences and emotions. This shared silence encourages us to step into their shoes, allowing us to better understand and resonate with their feelings. As we become more attuned to their needs, we can modify our actions and habits, ensuring we create an environment where they feel cherished and understood. Silence also serves as an icebreaker; it is the language of the soul. It fosters connections where words may fail. A warm look in the eyes of a stranger or a simple, loving gesture can go a long way in making a positive first impression, often lead...
