Awareness is the golden key to increase the quality of life in |
A young Harvard graduate writes on her personal homepage:
Who I'd like to meet:
shiny, happy people
Life is our teacher. Life communicates with us all the time and it is a lesson to see how life continuously have led me to the people I need to met, to the situations I need to experience, and to the places I need to be. There has never been any real reason to worry since all small individual rivers are already on their way to the ocean, to the Whole. It is not about swimming, it is about relaxing and to float with the river in a basic trust that life already leads towards the sea of consciousness, towards the Whole.

" Love means to realize that we are one with life. Real love means to realize that we are one with the other person, one with nature, and one with the trees, the stones, the earth and the blue sky. It means to realize that all of life is God."

As promised last month, we share quotations from Swami Dhyan Giten, a spiritual teacher in Sweden, who gave us permission to publish them. They fit perfectly into our opus, Wisdom for the Soul: Five Millennia of Prescriptions for Spiritual Healing and provide more incentive to publish a second edition to include them. His book, The Silent Whisperings of the Heart - A Collection of Quotes from Giten, will be published soon by The Mandala Press. Visit his website at www.giten.net.
ATTENTION / AWARENESS
Awareness is the golden key to increase the quality of life in relation to ourselves, in relation to other people, in relation to work and creativity and in relation to life itself.
CONGRUENCE / RESONANCE
We can either work with or against life. The first way is a “yes”-attitude towards life and the second way is a “no”-attitude towards life. The first way results in joy, harmony and wholeness and the second way results in fight, struggle and separation from life, but in the end the part can never win over the whole.
GROWTH / EXPANSION
Our spiritual development depends on our own commitment to our own growth. We can use our free will to grow or we can chose not to grow. This is the freedom that life gives us and it is our own responsibility, but it seems to be few people that accept the challenge of life to grow.
OPENNESS / RECEPTIVITY
Look for the light and the possibilities in all situations. See what you can learn in all situations. In this way you can use all situations to grow.
RESPONSIBILITY
Our spiritual development depends on our “yes” and commitment to our own growth. When we begin to take responsibility for our own development, things begin to happen by itself. It is like Existence supports our decision to develop.
TRUST
What is trust in life? Trust is an attitude to life. It means to open our heart to life. It means to travel with an open heart into the unknown. It means to dare to take the jump into the unknown. It means to let go of our separate ideas, attitudes and expectations and allow life to guide us. It means to live in a deep harmony with life, without expecting life to fit with our ideas and expectations.
VALUE / WORTH
Everything of real value is already within ourselves.

Meditation is to learn to be with our self. Meditation is to learn to be alone. Meditation is to learn that aloneness is a source of love, joy, acceptance, silence, freedom and belongingness with life, where we do not need anybody or anything to be happy and satisfied.

Look within.
Real love is to realize that we are one with life. Real love means to understand that we are one with the other person, with nature, with the trees, the stones and with the blue sky.
