Is there enough love in the world

When I started writing, my main aspiration was to deliver my ideas in words rather then in dance or in any other creative expression. As a healer, my writing evolved into my passion for peace and healing. I believe in true love, where all religion can come together. What is true about go(o)d must be in common. I wanted to share my knowledge and assist as much as I can so I can make a difference in my life and hopefully in others life. My contribution had been envied and prosecuted to the point that I started hating. That is the point where I scream for help. Life is meant to be lived in peace. Without love there is only envy. I am hoping to reach all those that had been bullied on line. I want to tell them what I am telling myself. When one door slams in ones face, another door opens wide. There are so many doors. It is similar to choosing and experiencing truth without fear. I was born out of love, I am love and always will be the only truth. I choose to live in love, peace and truth without fear. Hate is a deadly disease that slowly but surely eats ones organs away. Not my share in life. Fire for fire and the fire of the innocent is just as strong as the fire of desire. I choose to share love and beauty with people who love each other. Trust is fundamental in relationships. When trust is broken, fear sets in. I was born in the light of love that created everything in this world, everything that some humans are trying to destroy. I have seen, others like me having to go through similar experiences. To my luck, I managed to reach a few people and pass the fire of healing and share truth without fear. To my luck I was fortunate to see in my own eyes the power of healing that is based on true love. No amount of desire can change the truth that is the force of life. As I turn away from those who hate me, I walk forward into the arms of those that love me. I chose love, truth and peace what is the fire of innocence. I value the truth that does not kill and brings prosperity rather then death. I refuse to be sad about it. There is so much to be happy about. I let go knowing that strength sometimes is a timely action of silence rather then sadness. Beauty will win over ugliness, and I am already smiling knowing I am safe, empowered and without fear of love.

Strength is the ability to look at reality and say be gone. A reality that does not reflect my true being is an allusion in progression. That allusion finds its fire in the ability to misuse energy. Blame forever flies around as an expression of rage but why blame when the truth is never the sorcery of the subjected objective?

Creative self motivation. This morning I woke up and made up my mind. I am going to learn to push up my positive muscles. I will calm, relax, trust in good and focus on it just as much as I focus on the truth that is holding me now in discontent and pain. It is true that the truth is more important but the truth is forever a cycle of change.

How to please the Supreme Lord ?

All our occupational duties are perfected when it gives pleasure and satisfaction to the Lord. And how do we please the Lord? We please the Lord by pleasing His devotees, the great souls. And what pleases the great souls? When they see that whatever services we offer is without a desire for prestige or distinction, the great souls are pleased. To the degree our service is without ulterior motives for our own selfish acquisition, either gross or subtle, to that degree it is actually pleasing the devotees, and thus pleasing to the Supreme Lord.

There is a great need for Leadership

What great men do common people follow.Whatever standards they set up by their exemplary acts the world will pursue. In the world today, the influence of material energy is so strong that it imprisons people's mind with the desire of material enjoyment. The more one can enjoy their senses, the more they are praised by common man. The tide of the current of the river of material existence naturally flows towards unrestricted sense gratification. And the animals they have no conception of any reason why to restrain their senses from their natural desires for sense enjoyment. Whatever their instinct they just follow their senses. Human life is meant for tapasya (austerity) Tapasya means to actually say 'NO' to go against natural flow of material nature, to go against the inclination of one's mind and senses.There is a famous saying "When the blind lead the blind they all together fall in a ditch and suffer." Therefore there is a great need for leadership in this society. Leadership of those persons who are willing to perform the tapasya giving up their own selfish interests for the higher purpose of leading the people on the path of Dharma (religion)

How to Render Service?

Devotional service should not be rendered in a proud way. We should not think that rendering service is to show how nice we are, how good we are, how devoted we are. Rendering service in a proper state of mind means to always take a position of being menial and insignificant. We may not have this consciousness of menial significance frame of mind but we should aspire for that when we chant the holy name of the Lord. When we aspire in all our devotional practices for this most glorious position of das dasanu das,being in the mood of servant, then Krishna will take our prayers seriously and then by His Grace, He will remove ahankara, the false ego. Until He removes it, we will all be imprisoned by it. You do not have the power to remove it, but by your humble menial service to the Lord you will attract His Divine Mercy. He removes it. And for Him, nothing is impossible.

Dussehra is the celebration of the grand victory

Dussehra is the celebration of the grand victory of Lord Ramachandra over the mighty demon Ravana .And of course this is a factual historical event that took place in Sri Lanka, during the Treta Yuga, but know that it is also a lila, the pastimes of the Lord, that can take place within your heart when you take shelter of Lord Ramachandra. And therefore on this day, in preparation for this day, we should truly meditate on what this lila truly means to us. What it means to our life? The symbol of Kama(lust), Ravana ,who is dwelling in the heart of all living souls and is the single deadly enemy of every living being can all be defeated by the mighty glory of Lord Ramachandra. When we remember Lord Rama, He appears within our heart. By remembering Lord Rama. He kills all the demons within our heart.
