Guest guest Posted July 23, 2005 Report Share Posted July 23, 2005 Look after your property of happiness God often tells us that the breath of life is zeal and enthusiasm. He tells us that if our zeal and enthusiasm reduces we cannot be really happy. In life there is no nourishment like happiness. Someone who is happy seems to have everything. Why does happiness leave us? The type of happiness that God gives us is our very own property. It is not the type of happiness of position, possessions etc. So how then can small matters steal your property? A situation comes - whatever it may be - and we know that it will change eventually. However, we let it take away our happiness and then it is as if we internally cling onto that situation. That situation stays in your heart and continues to reduce your happiness. So learn to look after your property of happiness very well. Your face should reveal your happiness. It is not that you should be sometimes this, sometimes that. Now learn to have courage. Have the courage to maintain your happiness no matter what. In fact God has told us everything. He knows we have been labouring for our last 63 births. When a child becomes tired what would a father do? Would he like to see his child tired? No, he takes the child and merges the child in his love. Where there is love there is no tiredness. Just as a fish stays merged in water, in that way learn to be totally merged with God. In fact, God could not and still cannot bear to see any child unhappy. Do you ever ask the question 'What is my part?' or maybe you say, 'I try hard to have yoga but can't' or 'I don't know if I will become part of the rosary'. If you keep asking questions like this you will definitely become disheartened. Now remember one aspect of happiness; God has told us that each one of us has a speciality given to us directly by God. He tells us that each one of us is special because we have recognised the father and that is why we are here. God says that someone may have a very high position in the world. He may be a prime minister but he has not recognised God. So doesn't this make you very special and unique out of all the people in the world? What more then do you actually want? He is your very own God, He is not the God who belongs only to few. When you say 'mine' you will feel that you have a right over Him. I have a right over God so why should I become disheartened? God doesn't change his tune. He is truth, He cannot change his promise; He is in bondage to his words. God has told you that when you say 'My God' He will be there for you. God is the truth; remember this - He cannot change His promise. Who else can give us this guarantee? In fact God has given us a guarantee for 21 births. Is this firm in your intellect? Maintain this faith. See then how you will never feel disheartened. You cannot keep both happiness and disheartenment in your heart at the same time, so learn to keep happiness in there. Learn to always be happy. On coming to God you have been given a heart throne to sit on. It is God's very own heart throne. Sit on His heart throne and also on the throne of your forehead (soul is located in the forehead, center of eye brow). What do some do? The leave the throne to go and sit on the chair of the judge. They cannot make decisions about themselves so instead they think about others. Do you like to leave a throne and sit on a very ordinary seat? Remember this; it is very, very easy to see others. To be introverted and see the self takes effort. In fact, God has given us the third eye to see the self. When we look carefully at the self we will not see what others are doing. Don't keep becoming a judge and asking what others are doing. Stay on your throne and you will continue to receive a throne for 21 births. However, if there is not that practice now how can you expect to claim a throne in the future? Asking questions such as 'why, what' etc. is like opening a gate for waste thoughts to come through. Now close that gate. There really isn't the time now to keep seeing and thinking about others. Shut the gate, see the self and rule the self. There is a lot of service to do. So learn to stay on your own throne and show others by example how to sit on theirs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
