The Homo sapiens is endowed with ability, intelligence, and affection. Philosophers surmise that we are all masters of our own thoughts. We hold the key to every situation. We also possess within us a transforming and revitalising dimension. This is one of nature’s greatest characteristics — it makes us what we are and also what we ‘will.’ The ‘will’ to do things the way you want, or believe is appropriate, in a given situation.
The power we possess to do things, even in our illness, or neglected states, is a god-given gift. Yet, not all of us rise above our weak spots — we sometimes mess up with ourselves and our strengths too. It’s only when we begin to reflect upon our condition and search meaningfully for the natural laws upon which our being is established, we climb the ladder and become wise folks. In so doing, we reach a higher plane and use our inner energies with improved acumen and resolve. It’s all within us — it’s just a question of seeking the conscious ‘aristocrat’ residing in us by way of application, self-analysis, and also experience.
You and I are nature’s gardeners cultivating our mind’s land, keeping it free from nasty germs, and growing mindful flowers, or fruits, in its fertile soil. It’s, of course, not easy to farm your ‘mindful meadow’ — clearing the debris of wrong, or impure thoughts and cultivating good, useful, and pure thoughts. It’s only when you pursue your quest to be nature’s best ‘mind gardener,’ would you be able to become the master-gardener of your soul, the smart executive of your life. You’ll now slowly begin to appreciate and live in the action of your thoughts and understanding — while shaping your personality, circumstances, and destiny, with better effect.
You’ll also be able to direct your character, the pivot of your life and the creator of your destiny, by digging deep into the goldmine of your psyche. Anyone who lives in the inner spaces of such a goldmine is better able to watch, control, and change their thoughts, connecting their effects upon oneself, upon one’s life, on others, and also circumstances. It’s not that you should always connect every ‘cause’ and ‘effect’ to the most important things in life. Far from it. You should apply your mind and awareness to all things — including everyday occurrences that progress towards appreciating the feelings of your loved ones and others.
One of the most fascinating truths of life pertains to the soul — a soul that is well-moulded with good feelings and made to glow in our turbulent times. There’s nothing more delightful, or fruitful, on planet earth than celebrating the divine promise and self-belief that you and I possess as masters of our thoughts, environment, and providence. When you flood your thoughts and character with the belief that you are what god intended to be, you will be able to manifest and discover the external conditions of your life — including things that are likely to trouble you at times.
A life of happiness is harmoniously related to your inner state, a state of balance — not riches. It’s your thoughts, not circumstance, that make, or break your life, your aspirations, or your dreams. When you are considerate to anyone that feels ‘out of sync’ with their life, or surroundings, they too will ‘link up’ with you and feel comfortable.
This is a never-ending learning, also nurturing curve. Its beauty is universal — because nature gives us the faith to grow, expand our mind, learn spiritual lessons, and find a place for circumstances. When you allow your mind to flourish, you’ll spontaneously become the caring gardener of your own destiny, or inner calling.
