LIFE
Life is not a problem. Rather, it is a mystery to be lived, not a problem
to be sovled.
DEATH
Once you know what life is, you will know what death is. It is part of the same
process. Death and life are not separate, not opposites - they are
complementaries. Death is not the end of life - it is the crescendo, the
climax, the finale.
MISERY
Misery is nothing but this struggle of life to explode into millions of
colors, into millions of rainbows, into millions of flowers, into millions
of songs.
CELEBRATION
Celebration is unconditional; I celebrate life. It brings unhappiness - good,
I celebrate it. It brings happiness- good, I celebrate it. Celebration is
my attitude, unconditional to what life brings.
We celebrate everything. Celebration is our way to receive all gifts from God.
Life is his gift, death is his gift; the body is his gift, the soul is his gift.
We celebrate everything.
RELIGION
Religion is light, religion is understanding, religion is awareness, religion
is authencity. The real religion is that of meditation. One simply moves into
oneself..... all directions are dropped, all dimensions are dropped. One
simply tries to be oneself.
INTELLIGENCE
Intelligence is trust in your own being. Intelligence is adventure, thrill,
joy. Intelligence is to live in this moment, not to hanker for the future.
Intelligence is to make the utmost use of this present moment. Life is too
short, enjoy every minute you live.
CREATIVITY
Creativity is a quality, an attitude, an inner approach to life......
Everybody can be creative. Creativity means loving whatsoever you do -
enjoying, celebrating it as a gift.
LOVE
Unless you have known what Love is you have not known what melody is.
It is the meeting, orgasmic meeting of death and life. Unless love
is known, you have missed that meeting.
COMPASSION
Compassion is the highest form of love. Compassion is therapeutic - because
all that is ill in man is because of love. To be compassionate one has to
have compassion for oneself first. If you don't love yourself you will never
be able to love anybody else.

1) You will receive a body.
You may like it or hate it, but it will be yours for the
entire period this time round.
2) You will learn lessons.
You are enrolled in a full-time informal school called Life.
Each day in this school you will have the opportunity to
learn lessons. You may like the lessons or think them
irrelevant and stupid.
3) There are no mistakes, only lessons.
Growth is a process of trial and error experimentation. The
`failed' experiments are as much a part of the process as the
experiment that ultimately `works'.
4) A lesson is repeated until learned.
A lesson will be presented to you in various forms until you
have learned it. When you have learned it, you can then go
on to the next lesson.
5) Learning lessons does not end.
There is no part of life that does not contain its lessons.
If you are alive, there are lessons to be learned.
6) "There" is no better than "here."
When your "there" has become a "here," you will simply
obtain another "there" that will again - look better than
"here."
7) Others are merely mirrors of you.
You cannot love or hate something about another person unless
it reflects something you love or hate about yourself.
8) What you make of your life is up to you.
You have all the tools and resources you need. What you do
with them is up to you. THE CHOICE IS YOURS.
9) Your answers lie inside you.
The answers to Life's questions lie inside you. All you need
do is look, listen and trust.
10) You may forget all of this.
11) You will remember what you want - just for today.

1462.87 | Enabling.. | WLDWST::KLYDIE | White Winged Dove | Wed Sep 04 1991 19:42 | 37 |
|
Enablers are the worst enemies of the
very people they love the most.
- Carrie R.
Enablers are those of us who take the responsibility
to protect other people from pain. If someone near
us feels down or unhappy, we believe it is our job to
make them feel better.
Despite our good intentions, our enabling has a negative
side: In protecting others from pain, we also shield them
from a marvelous teacher and motivator--experience. We
prevent them from taking responsibility and from living
with the consequences of their decisions. When enablers,
even motivated by love, gallop onto the scene, they de-
prive their loved ones of the motivation they might need
to make some changes.
Recovery requires change, and change often begins with a
conversion experience. Conversion experiences can be
rooted in pain. If we enablers are always there to cushion
the fall, how are our loved ones going to meet the concrete?
Our own growth might be due to those who loved us enough to
let us experience the painful consequences of our mistakes.
We can pass this loving detachment on to others.
Today, I will allow others to live with
their own choices.

Some people would go down the gurgler if not acted upon by an external
force. They do not have the mental attitude to save themselves. I guess
if you believe in multiple lifetimes, ok, so maybe next time around
they can save themselves? What if you are wittnessing a murder and you
have the know-how to stop it...should you? I think so...
In everything there is balance...I believe it is a wise man who knows
when and when not to interfere, to guide someone. I also believe that
charity at the wrong time is detrimental.
Personally, I thank the heavens for those kind souls put their hand out
to me and restored my faith in humanity, just when I needed it. The
good they did far outweighed the bad imhho ;-)

| re: .87, .88
Yes, there *is* a point at which the choices are to allow
the reality to go as it's headed or to make the reality be different
(consciously intervening, so-to-speak.) The question that comes
up then is whether that has been a positive choice or whether it
has been a manipulation. *My* answer is to make the best choice I
know and then go for it. That is, if someone is drowning, it may
very well be their karma to drown. ON the other hand, it may be that
their karma is having YOU come along and save them.
In regards to enabling, perhaps this isn't apparent initially.
So, initially, one can offer to help. Once it can be determined
(making the best choice possible) that the person is manipulating
(whether from "strength" or from weakness) or is into a martyred
journey, *THEN* you can decide that you "won't play" or won't buy
into their drama. We do NOT have to be sucked into other people's
drama...you CAN get off the gameboard. Enabling, as the term could
be applied here, would no longer be operant.

1462.90 | Fear of the Unknown | WLDWST::KLYDIE | Caution Bubble Gum Blower | Thu Sep 05 1991 22:49 | 56 |
| The Black Door
There's a Middle Eastern story of a spy who had been captured and sentenced
to death by a general of the Persian army. The general had fallen upon a
strange and rather bizarre custom. He permitted the condemned person to
make a choice. He could either face the firing squad or pass through the
black door.
As the moment of execution drew near, the general ordered the spy to be
brought before him for a short, final interview, the primary purpose of
which was to receive the answer of the doomed man to the question: "Which
shall it be - the firing squad or the black door?"
This was not an easy question, and the prisoner hesitated, but soon he made
it known that he much preferred the firing squad. Not long thereafter, a
volley of shots in the courtyard announced the grim sentence had been
fulfilled. The general, staring at his boots, turned to his aide and said,
"You see how it is with men; they will always prefer the known way to the
unknown. It is characteristic of people to be afraid of the undefined. And
yet I gave him his choice."
"What lies behind the black door?" asked the aide.
"Freedom," replied the general, "and I've known only a few men brave enough
to take it."
Like so many stories out of the Middle East, this one carries a pretty hefty
message. The first is, of course, that we will often choose the familiar,
even if it's undesirable, over the unknown, which might be a wonderful
opportunity. And second, that few people are brave enough to choose freedom.
I'm not saying we should reject the familiar - not by any means. But we
should question the familiar. Just because it's familiar doesn't make it
good, best, or the best thing to do.
When you heard the story about the black door, you probably said to
yourself, "I would have chosen the black door. I would have had nothing to
lose; the firing squad was certain death." And most people would say the
same thing. But actually faced with the choice, would you? How many doors
to freedom have we passed up during our lives because we tend to cling so
fiercely to the familiar?
How many times have events come about that we worried and stewed about -
even thought calamitous at the time - and that later proved to be blessings
in disguise? Each of them was a black door through which we passed to
greater freedom. But at the time, we would have chosen to keep things as
they were if we had been given the chance.
At any rate, it's one of those stories that makes for interesting discussion
at the dinner table, or with friends. Tell the story of the black door, and
see what sort of reaction you get.
It's good to remember, if we can, that it is often those things we worry
about and most fear that turn out to be blessings in disguise.

Yesterday's answer has nothing to do
with today's problem.
- Stu B.
As little kids, many of us learned to disconnet from
pain rather than stay attached. We separated ourselves
from the action around us in order to survive. Over time,
what we did is what we became--separate. Having almost
literally burned the bridge between us and others, we see
now that we are stranded. The isolation that was meant to
keep anyone from getting at us also keeps anyone from getting
to us.
We need to rebuild the bridge. People, like islands, need
ways to see and reach and touch hands over all that separating
water. Making connections is the only way. Unless we can hear
each other singing and crying, unless we can comfort each
other's failures and cheer each other's victories, we are
missing out on the best that life has to offer. The only real
action takes place on the bridge between people.
Today, I ask my Higher Power for the courage
to build another bridge.

The future is made of the same stuff as the present.
- Simone Weil
The moment is eternal. It is unending. When we move with the
moment, we experience all that life can offer. Being fully awake to
right now guarantees rapture even when there's pain, because we know
we are evolving, and we thrill with the knowledge. We are one with
all that's going on around us. Our existence is purposeful and part
of the whole of creation, and we can sense our purpose.
Nothing is -- but NOW. And when we dwell on what was or what may
be, we are cut off from life -- essentially dead. The only reality is
the present, and it's only in the present that we are invited to make
our special contribution to life; perhaps at this moment our special
contribution is to reach out to another person, an act that will
change two lives, ours and another persons
We must cling to the present, or we'll miss its invitation to
grow, to help a friend perhaps, to be part of the only reality there
is. The present holds all we need and all we'll ever need to fulfill
our lives. It provides every opportunity for our happiness -- the
only happiness there is.
Abstinence offers me the gift of the present. I will
cherish it, be grateful, relish it.

TAKEN FROM "THE PROMISES"
We have our brush and colors---paint Paradise
and in we go.
--Nikos Kazantzakis
We find in our experiences and in our daily reveries just
what we anticipate. If we greet the day wearing a smile,
confident that we are needed and able to make a
contribution, we'll discover that the day holds great
promise. What we need to understand is that every day holds
just as much promise as we're capable of expecting. We
carry within ourselves the image of the picture we're
creating.
Since the choice to find happiness rather than sorrow and
regret is our own, why does the latter even attract us? For
no other reason than we fail to believe that we're deserving
of happiness. We know our own shortcomings; we're aware of
the details in our lives for which we feel shame. We think
only the pure of heart deserve happiness. But we're human.
And this means mistakes are normal and expected. With
wisdom comes full understanding of this fact. In the
meantime, we can trust that happiness is our birthright.
All that's requested is our belief in it.
Today will offer me all that I truly desire.
Happiness attracts itself.

It takes forever to find a way out.

I don't have to feel strong all the time to take care of myself.
I can handle making a mistake.
It's no big deal.
It's part of living.
I will love and cherish the child inside me and
Never, never let it go.
I am with the people I need to be with -- for today.
Controlling keeps me from enjoying other people,
And it blocks their growth.
I will know when the time has come to let go.
Other people can't change how I feel.
Only I can change how I feel.
It's okay to be who I am.
I can relax and enjoy myself and other people.
Anger helps identify problems,
But it usually doesn't help solve them.
I don't need everybody's approval.
I only need my own approval.
It's normal to resist affirmations and other positive thoughts,
But I can be patient.
I don't have to give up.
Today I'm going to give life a chance to happen.
I'm going to give myself an opportunity to enjoy it.
I have a right to feel anger when I need to,
And a responsibility to deal appropriately with my anger.
I don't have to do more today than I can reasonably do.
Sometimes we grow out of relationships.
Sometimes we grow out of organizations.
Sometimes we grow out of jobs.
Once I learn to care for the child in myself,
I'll know how to help the children in my life.
Today I will love from my strengths, not from my weaknesses.
And I'll ask others to do the same.
I may want to make new decisions as I grow.
If I'm wrong today, I'll say so.
I need to be willing to be changed,
And I need to cooperate in the process of change.
I need to do my part,
And I do my part best when I do it one day at a time.
Unresolved anger can keep me from getting close to people.
I will give up regrets about the past and fears about the future.
I will make the most of this day.
When one method of problem solving fails,
I can try another.
Today I will trust the person I'm learning to depend on -- myself.
If someone else has a bad day,
It doesn't necessarily have anything to do with me.
It doesn't have to ruin my day.
If I want to start a relationship,
The first thing I have to do is smile and say, "Hi!"
God loves me and is taking care of me.
All I need today shall be provided.

| A Special Valentine Day's Message
Everybody wants to be loved. That is a wrong beginning. And it starts
because the child, the small child, cannot love, cannot say anything,
cannot do anything, cannot give anything - he/she can only get.
A small child's experience of love is of getting - getting from the
mother, getting from the father, getting from the brothers, sisters,
getting from guests, strangers, but always getting. So the first
experience, deep in his/her unconscious settles - that he/she has to get
love.
But the trouble arises because everybody has been a child, and evrybody
has the same urge to get love; and nobody is born in any other way. So
all are asking, "Give us love," and there is nobody to give, because the
other person is also brought up in the same way.
So one has to be alert and aware that just an accident of birth should
not remain a constant prevailing state of your mind. Rather than asking,
"Give me love," start giving love. Forget about getting, simply give;
and I gurantee you , you will get much.
Today when you celebrate your Valentine's day with your partner, remember
the above. Remember this throughout your future life.

I am helping a friend to recover from her depression. She reacted very
positively to the following messages. I hope you find them useful as well.
regards,
Girish
THE PASSING PHASES OF LIFE'S TROUBLES.
STOP FOR JUST A MOMENT AND SEE HOW FORTUNATE YOU ARE.
Any grave situation that occurs should be considered as a passing phase in this
Eternal World Drama of Life, where each scene has its own important
significance. If I do not remain aware of this, there is likely to be much
confusion and even unhappiness within my life. Let me be fully conscious that
in each situation there lies some degree of benefit even if it is only the level
of learning a lesson. But then, is it not true that to learn means to acquire
knowledge, and is it not said that knowledge is wealth?
If I am seeing only the negative aspects of something strange which has ocurred,
I am likely to experience sorrow. I might even be drawn to tears and grief. This
will of course trap me in a net of self pity whereby I am neither willing nor
able to discover what the hidden benefit of that scene may be. Yes, it is true
that sometimes the benefit can be deeply hidden, but quite often it is easily
apparent. All I need to do is maintain this positive attitude and keep my eyes
free from tears and my vision focused on the positive side of the fence. This
will definitely save you time, energy and temper.
"Blessings are not valued until they are gone." In the hectic hustle and bustle
of living, so much is overlooked and so many of our actions are automatic that
it is as if nothing special ever happens.
We awaken in the morning. Some of us can open our eyes and look out at the
world. Some of us can hear the birds sweetly singing. Some of us can say, "good
Morning" to the world with our voice and some can get out of the bed healthy and
strong.
For some, the hustle and bustle starts early because the children have to be off
to school and we have to be off to a job. For others the hustle and bustle is
in the mind, how to earn the money for food and where next to look for the job.
For those not in their homes, but in hospitals and institutions, thoughts of
returning home and rehabilitation crowd the mind.
Nothing stays the same. The situation we find ourselves in today can change in
the twinkling of the eye and the freedoms we took granted can disappear. Do you
ever stop to count your blessings to see how fortunate you are? Yes we know that
we should do better and it is indeed a healthy thing to seek progress and
improvement. But will there be improvement if I simply sit and moan in a corner?
Most certainly not!
Every now and then during the day, just stop for a moment and see the value of
whatever you have, regardless of how little it may seem to you. To someone less
fortunate your little is quite a lot. Why not value what you have? Who knows
how long you will have it?
When you look at a glass containing water, feel not how much empty it is but
feel how much full it is.

But for your sake (is that a Japanese wine? ;-) ) Cliffy,
I'll elaborate just a tad...
What's good for the goose may very well kill the gander.
One man's garbage is another man's treasure. All that glitters
isn't gold. Let's see, how many more cliche's can I come up
with? :-)
To lump everyone into a common pot is not usually a very
wise thing to do (unless it is :-) ) but in this regard one
person's focus or one person's "purposes" or destiny is totally
different from every other's...similarly, none of us has the
same strengths though we may share some. And the way one person
is best suited to displaying his/her strengths is very likely
to be uneffective or inappropriate for a different person attempting
to express the same strengths. *Therefore,* ergo, ipso facto,
dominus vobiscum, taken blindly---the statements are not valid.

THE WORLD IS MINE
Today upon a bus I saw, a lovely girl with golden hair;
I envied her...she seemed so gay...and wished I were as fair.
When suddenly she rose to leave, I saw her hobble down the aisle;
She had one foot and wore a crutch, but as she passed a smile.
Oh God, forgive me when I whine;
I have two feet...the world is mine!
And then I stopped to buy some sweets.
The lad who served them had such charm, I talked with him.
He said to me; "It's nice to talk to folks like you.
You see," he said, "I'm blind."
Oh God, forgive me when I whine;
I have two eyes...the world is mine!
Then, walking down the street, I saw a child with eyes so blue.
He stood and watched the others play;
It seemed he knew not what to do.
I stopped for a moment, then I said, "Why don't you join the others dear?"
He looked ahead without a word, and then I knew he could not hear.
Oh God, forgive me when I whine;
I have two ears...the world is mine!
With feet to take me where I'd go,
With eyes to see the sunset's glow'
With ears to hear what I would know,
Oh God, forgive me when I whine;
I'm blessed indeed! The world is mine!

The People fight before they talk
The people see colours
The people see barriers, that arn't really there
The imagination controls
People say they hate, without really knowing
Because of the Race, because of their skin
People don't have faith anymore
They act with revenge that they've never known
They act as if it were a sin
If only everyone was blind
If only the sounds of their voices the same
Would be different if colours were not seen
I think so!

| Dear All,
As I celebrate my birthday today, I wish to share the thoughts in my mind
here.
regards,
Girish
A Birthday Wish for Self.
Just for today I will be happy. This assumes what Abraham Lincoln said is
true, that "most folks are about as happy as they make up their minds to
be." Happiness is from within; it is not a matter of externals.
Just for today I will try to adjust myself to what is, and not try to
adjust everything to my own desires. I will take my family, my job, my
friends and my luck as they come and fit myself to them.
Just for today I will take care of my body. I will exercise it, care for
it, nourish it, not abuse it or neglet it, so that it will be perfect
machine for my bidding.
Just for today I will try to strengthen my mind. I will learn something
useful. I will not be a mental loafer. I will read something that requires
effort, thought and concentration.
Just for today I will exercise my soul in three ways. I will do somebody a
good turn and not get found out. I will do at least two things I don't
want to do, as William James suggests, just for exercise.
Just for today I will be agreeable. I will look as well as I can, dress as
becomingly as possible, talk slow, act courteously, be liberal with
praise, criticise not at all, nor find fault with anything and not try to
regulate nor improve anyone.
Just for today I will try to live through this day only, not to tackle my
whole life problems at once. I can do things for twelve hours that would
appal me if I had to keep them for a lifetime.
Just for today I will have a programme, I will write down what I expect to
do every hour. I may not follow it exactly, but I will have it, I will
eliminate two pests, hurry and indecision.
Just for today I will have a quiet half hour all by myself and relax. In
this half hour sometimes I will think of God, so as to get a little more
perspective into my life.
Just for today I will be unafraid, especially I will not be afraid to be
happy, to enjoy what is beautiful, to love, and to believe that those I
love, love me.
Just for today I wish that I can do the above during each day I live.
Word of my teacher.

LOVE
Love takes time. It needs a history
of giving and receiving, laughing
and crying...
Love never promises instant gratification,
only ultimate fulfilment.
Love means believing in someone, in something.
It supposes a willingness to struggle,
to work, to suffer, and to rejoice.
Satisfaction and ultimate fulfilment are
by-products of dedicated love. They
belong only to those who can reach
beyond themselves; to whom giving
is more important than receiving.
Love is doing everything you can to help
others build whatever dreams they have.
Love involves much careful and active
listening. It is doing whatever needs to
be done, and saving whatever will promote
the other's happiness, security and
well-being. Sometimes, love hurts.
Love is on a constant journey to what others
need. It must be attentive, caring, and open,
both to what others say and to what
others cannot say...
Love says no with empathy and great compassion.
Love is firm, but when needed it must be tender.
When others have tried and failed love is
the hand in yours in your moments of
discouragement and disappointment.
Love is reliable.
Love is a choice and commitment to others'
true and lasting happiness. It is dedicated
to growth and fulfilment. Love is
not selfish.
Love sometimes fails for lack of wisdom
or abundance of weakness, but it forgives,
knowing the intentions are good.
Love does not attach conditions... Genuine
love is always a free gift.
Love realises and accepts that there will be
disagreements and disturbing emotions...
There may be times when miles lay between
but love is a commitment. It believes
and endures all things.
Love encourages freedom of self. Love shares
positive and negative reactions to warm
and cold feelings.
Love, intimate love, will never reject others.
It is the first to encourage and the last
to condemn.
Love is a commitment to growth, happiness,
and fulfilment of one another.
The Ten Secrets of a Successful Relationship
- Having a wonderful friend.
- Communicating. (We try. And we all get better.)
- Being intimately involved in one another's lives. (Open,
honest, touching, together. The closer you are, the more
secure you feel.)
- Being happy as individuals. (And bringing good things to
the relationship from both directions.)
- Reaching out for dreams together.
- Always being there for one another. (Always.)
- Overlooking the few flaws. (But cherishing the thousands of
things that are wonderful.)
- Remembering that rainbows follow rain.
- Always sharing. (Friends, families, dreams, desires.
Weaving together the fabric of our lives.)
- And always caring. ("Always is a long, long time. But
"always is how you would want your relationship to be... with
loving your partner, as happy and as giving and as thankful
as any two people could be.)

| Hi all,
I have just been back from vacation. Before I went away I lost a very
young friend and after her funeral I had been going over the following
thoughts :
It is another's smile that fills you with joy,
Bear the burden of another's sorrow if you can,
And feel love for another in your heart,
"That is what life is about".
I concede my pocket is empty like a pauper,
Yet I am rich at heart,
A life sacrificed to love others,
A life striving for happiness,
You may or may not believe,
"That is what life is about".
The bond between hearts is a bond of trust,
The name of love thrives thanks to us all,
Even after death, someone will remember me,
My beaming face will still be seen in someone's tears,
And the rose will tell every petal again and again,
"That is what life is about".

| Dear All,
During the Easter break while I was helping a friend to overcome from some
major setbacks, I shared the following words of wisdom with her. She felt
them soothing and strengthening.
regards,
Girish
Don't give up
When things go wrong as they sometimes will,
When the road you are trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high
And you want to smile but you have to sigh
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest, if you must, but don't you quit.
Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns
And many a failure turns about
When one might have won had one stuck out
Don't give up though the pace seems slow
You may succeed with another blow.
Success is failure turned inside out
The silver tint of the cloud of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are
It may be near when it seems so far.
So stick to the fight when you are hardest hit.
It's when things seem worst, You must not quit

If I avoid someone because of one's skin colour, it is the same as hating
someone because of the clothes one wears.

To use punctuation marks on paper is easy but can you put full-stop
to waste thoughts?

Best wishes in all that you do, Girish. I, too, have saved many
of your contributions and continue to refer to them from time to time.
You should have my address already, or if not, let me know.
Namaste,
Cindy

| As an afterthought...
Recently I had a car crash (noone hurt) and wasn't sure what would happen
with the other driver, my insurance, the possibility of getting a bank loan
for a new car, the situation with the police, etc..
I could very easily have worried myself sick and allowed myself to sink
lower and lower, seeing potential(likely) problems everywhere.
Instead I tries to adopt much of the attitude/technique that I feel Girish
has tried to promote. I stood back and analysed whether I could do anything
positive or not. After getting advise from a solicitor, there was no more
positive action I could take. It was then that I applied the approach of
'No Action'. I didn't let any worries get to me, I enjoyed the other things
in my life and had a good time.
When I finally heard back from the other driver, then I could take action
again. It was amazing how well things turned out in the end by not taking
any action.
With the right attitude/approach things do turn out the best!
