Life And Living

Living gives meaning to life.
It keeps death from life.
Death demeans life.
Ultimate is death; penultimate is life.
Between them is the span of life.
Good living earns life.
Erratic, rash living spends life.
Living with rich values enriches life.
Opposites endanger life.
Living is the hammock held by death and life.
Hammock sinks; living loses; close is the end of life.
Heart freezes; pulse chills; living lets go of life.
Death snatches life.
Death hates living; cannot sustain life.
No living; no life.
Death wins; lost is life.
Living implies fine existence; that is called life.

The Ship Without a Rudder

Lately I have spent a great deal of time with rudder-less ships.
People who get up each morning and do exactly what they did yesterday.
Not that they particularly want to... it's just what they do.
They do the same.
Day in, day out.
Year in, year out.

They expend a huge amount of energy sailing in circles on the Sea of Frustration.
Talk to them and they have no real direction.
No clarity and no certainty about what they want their future to look like.
They are desperate for different... without really knowing exactly (or even vaguely) what that different is.

They've never really defined it.
They have no real direction, purpose or vision.
For them life is a chore; a series of unplanned (and often unenjoyable) events.
Life happens to them, around them and in spite of them.

They don't create their best life... their life creates them.

Their daily reality is shaped (if not, totally controlled) by situations, circumstances, events and other people.
They haven't made a (significant) decision in years.
Ever perhaps.
Too fearful, too disorganized, too apathetic, too full of excuses.

They don't set goals (tried it once... didn't work... only leads to disappointment... too much pain). Sure, they know what goal setting is (that is, they have an intellectual understanding of it) but they don't have a practical application of it in their life.

They hope, they wish, they wait... but they don't have clearly defined goals that have translated to actual works in progress.

Much of their existence is spent negotiating a series of unplanned events.
They spend their days reacting and surviving, rather than creating and thriving.
They hope that their crappy life will somehow fix itself or fall into place.

Or perhaps someone or something... will save them.

"How come nothing good ever happens to me?"... people ask me all the time.

The only thing which needs to happen for our life to change for the better... is us; we need to happen.

Many of us have never (seriously) sat down to plan (think, decide, rationalize, organize, create, define) our best life. We spend more time planning a party than we do our life.
Then we wake up one day and we're five years older... still stuck in a reality (situation, relationships, career, health, habits) that we don't really want.
We've compromised.

If we want 'better' (whatever that is for us individually) we need to spend quality time and energy gaining clarity about (defining) specifically what it is we want in.. and from.. our life.

And if we don't define it, we probably won't have it.

We need to stop stumbling and bumbling our way through life.
We need to find our rudder.
The person with no direction is a sad, frustrated, de-motivated and unfulfilled person.
A person who's losing (or has lost) hope.

So often we don't make (significant) decisions, don't take chances, don't have direction and don't have a clearly defined plan for, or certainty about, our future.
We just do what we did yesterday.
We go through the motions.
Again.
We have become creatures of repetition and habit.
We have accepted average.

If you have felt a little rudder-less from time to time, here are some suggestions/thoughts... they will prove to be invaluable IF you do something with them.

1. Spend time determining your life purpose (your reason for being).
No, this is not a five minute process... but do it and you will find your rudder.
You will have direction, purpose, energy, enthusiasm, momentum and joy.
(Remember joy?)
If you struggle to determine your purpose, then start by identifying your beliefs, standards, values, passions, loves, desires and dreams... your purpose will come out of these things.
When I make this suggestion (to explore our life purpose) many people automatically resign the thought to the 'too hard' basket.
Don't be one of them.

2. Decide where you want to be in 1, 2, 5 years.
In your career, your relationships, with your health, your finances, your spiritual life (whatever is important to you). Start with the end in mind (get clarity about where you want to be) and work backwards from there.
Don't panic if you don't know exactly how it's going to happen... first, get some certainty about what you want (specifically) and then you can start to figure out the practical (how-to-get-there) stuff.

3. Make a life-changing commitment.
A commitment that you are going to stop 'coping' with what happens around you and to you... and start living the life of your design.
All successful endeavors start with an idea, a decision, a commitment.
All change starts in our head... when we get to that place (emotionally, psychologically) things will start to happen (practically).
As I've said before... my world will change... when I change.

4. Know that you're the problem and the solution.
Everything else is just a resource, a hurdle, a lesson, an opportunity.

5. Decide what you don't want.
Sometimes doing things back-to-front produces better results.
Gaining certainty about what we don't want (for our life)... will often help us find our rudder.

So now you know what to do.
But will you do what you know?

The Mayan Dreamspell 13 moon Calendar

2001 - 2002 YELLOW SOLAR SEED
1. Replaces current Gregorian calendar (Pope Gregory XII, 1582). Originally from Babylon.

2. The Dreamspell is a modern version of the main Mayan calendar. It has 13 months (moons), each month has 28 days.

3. It is a natural cycle calendar. It is the same as menstrual cycles and moon cycles. It stimulates synchronicity and telepathy.

4. The current year is YELLOW SOLAR SEED. It commenced on 26th July 2001.

5. The Dreamspell 13 moon Calendar is based on the Mayan calendar of wave harmonics and resonant fields - and the liberation of the mind.

6. The current Mayan calendar cycle covers the period 3113 BC to 2012 AD, 5125 years. Unlike other ancient calendars it has never been in error. All its predictions have been accurate.

7. The Mayans of Mexico were master mathematicians and time worshippers. They understood time and space more accurately than us. They knew that Planet Earth would come into synchronisation with the Universe by 2012 AD.

8. By 2012 we will have reached a total collapse of time as we know it and an entry of humanity into post history.

9. Part of the Mayan prophecy was the Harmonic Convergence Prophecy which said the Age of Materialism must end at this time and we must return to Nature to save ourselves and the planet, our biosphere.

10. Under the Gregorian calendar we are living a fundamental dog matic "error in time"

11. Use of the calendar in everyday life will help heal Planet Earth, break the vicious link between time and money and bring oneness and understanding to humanity.

12. The Mayan prophecy says that we will soon not need money and about the same time we will have universal telepathy.

Do You Wish TO Be Special?

Dadi Janki ­ 19th November 2006 ­ Melbourne, Australia

Do you wish to be special?

In order to become special, see the speciality in each one. All Brahmins are special. Simply keep a record of giving regard to each and everyone. There is difference between respect and regard. I remain in my self respect and move forward whilst giving regard.

By keeping realising who I am and by continuing to see Baba, your self respect will increase every day. Success in service means effort and success also means being with the family also. Keep a good record of having regard for everyone. Everyone keeps regard for one who has regard for all.
Now, keep in mind to do whatever Baba says and to be a jewel of the forehead. Is it first that we sit in Baba’s heart and then become the>jewel of the forehead or the other way around? Ask yourself this. Your eyes will show your remembrance and by staying in that stage you will pull towards yourself.

Baba remembers both the old and new ones. Baba is drawing the attention of the old ones and giving full attention to the new ones. To the old ones He says, “Don’t waste your time in waste thoughts” and to the new ones, “Come here and you will get the co-operation of the family”. When new ones see the family they become very happy. When contact souls come they see that everyone here is so happy

Thought For Today

Live simply so that others may simply live. It's a nice idea, but our lives are more complicated and complex than ever. What can you simplify today - your desk, perhaps your thoughts, a meeting? Simple means easy. Simple means asking, "Is this really necessary?" Simple means keeping it short but sweet. Simple means keeping the focus of your attention on what you need to do now. Today's mantra is, "lets keep it simple."
