Live As A Master - Not As A Slave To Your Destiny

When you relive your past with all its unwanted baggage, you are working with the negative energies, and this energy is not released as long as you cling to it. You thus create more like situations in your life. The energy is dissipated only when you do not feed it anymore with your thoughts and memories. You must invest your energy in creating abundance and healthful situations in your life instead of wasting it away on dwelling on negative situations of the bygone days. All the time people are living with so much anger and frustration. This is because they do not want to let go of all the negativity. They cling to their life-situations as if their life depends on them. They do not want to give time a chance to work on them. Thus they create more such situations that continue to feed their anger and frustrations.

Nothing that happens in life is worth clinging to for all these are situations that come in your life as chapters of learning for the sake of your spiritual growth, and it is foolish to cling to these for this does not serve any purpose. You have to learn from your experiences and move on, taking only the essence of it as they come along. The soul requires all kinds of experiences for its growth. These experiences are not meant to break you but to make you whole. However, this higher understanding comes only with self-realisation. Most people are living at the mercy of their circumstances, and think that they can do nothing to save themselves from the external world. They think that they are at the mercy of the external world, and this is not right.

Each man has the power to have control over his life and the situations. You must live as a master and not as a slave. Man has unwittingly given away his power to the forces of the world and that is why he feels so helpless, vulnerable and small before all life-situations. He depends on the external world to bring him peace and happiness, but that can never be as long as he chooses to live like a slave. He has to look within and reclaim his power. Only then can he find true happiness. Peace and happiness are states of mind, and it is each one’s perspective of what peace and happiness means to them.  You may be having everything in the world but if your perspective of peace lies in materialism you will never find it – you will never be at peace within. There are many who do not have all that they want, yet at heart they are at peace because they place their value on healthful things that bring them mental peace. Greed and avarice cannot make one peaceful for these create in you an insatiable desire for more so no matter how much you may have, you will continue to crave for more.
