Today's insight - today's miracle

Today's insight - today's miracle : See the big picture

In our apartment we couldn't get 'drinking water' since the start of covid situation. The reason, the machine broke and it water couldn't be pumped into the overhead tank. The shops were closed so no repair possible. Effect - we ended up purchasing water for the last 2 1/2 months.....calculate the cost (wasted and unnecessary expense one would say if it was borne by him!). 

Yesterday, it was repaired. But because tank was cleaned the amount of chemical used to clean it was so high that we are not even able to open tap - leave alone use it.

Result - we ended up having no water. Didn't purchase thinking we could fill from the tap and didn't buy. Shops were closed by the time we realised it will take couple of days to use that water.

Just a bottle of water for the entire cooking and drinking!!!

Wish - it didn't happen....and life moved more smoothly

Desire - working towards saving money and work towards wasteful expenses

Expectation and effect - If I expect these things not to happen, fine. No one dreams or wishes for such things to happen. But to get angry, irritated and suffer saying 'waste of money' is the cause of condition I have from life. Not the events that happened.

As long as life exists these things will happen. They should happen. It means life still is going on. But to count every penny that goes out and suffer thinking it is injustice inspite of doing reiki - well that condition and mind set is at fault. We need to heal that!

If you have to calculate, then do it the complete and right way! Look at all the expenses not made during this covid shut down. How much money is saved?

You may have spent a little more on food (as their rates would have been hiked at some places etc...) and yet overall account if you check - you are still in plus. You saved more than you spend extra by way of this unforeseen expenses. 

If you see that way - the right way then there is no anger when things don't go as 'expected' or as we 'demand' them to...........

Learn to look at the big and complete picture to assess your losses and gains....you'll have so much to be joyous about.......when you look only at one incident that can become cause of our suffering and pain........

think about it......

Points to be understood : 

• Expectation, desire and wish - what they mean and how to use them?
• look at the big picture and you are full of faith that in the end everything works out well.......
• look at things as individual events and then that becomes the cause of concern, worry, fear, anger and our suffering all along......
• when you argue or try to understand something logically, the question you ask decides whether you are going towards suffering or healing
• But instead of looking at an event - good or bad, distasteful or disagreeable to us - if only we see the disturbance that it has caused then may be we can take the next step in the right direction.
• When we look at the disturbance and think "I am angry or suffering because this didn't go my way" then our mind will give reasons for the same and justify our suffering. This way we walk towards our hell. We create our hell.
• But if we look at the disturbance and instead of putting the blame on the outside factor sit in meditation and look within, we will see the cause of this disturbance. We will use one of the techniques or all techniques known to us to heal that disturbance.
• If we sit to heal the disturbance, just heal the anger, fear, disappointment the way things would go would change.
• You need not know the exact reason - don't think God has punished you, it is your karma coming back, lesson you need to know or any reason that you assign to that incident. Just heal the emotion that is disturbing you and lo! the events that follow would automatically change.
• Stick to the disturbance and you'll encounter similar ones again and again for more number of times.........not because you are punished or so but because you have created that energy and that will keep coming back to you again and again...
• Sit and meditate. Calmly take your pick and choose wisely.........
