How Do You Know If Your Wife Loves You?
39656.pngIf your wife criticizes you, it is a sign that she loves you very much and more! If she asks you to do more chores around the house, it means she sees your hidden potential.
If she complains that you are not making enough, it is an indication that your talents are wasted! If she unleashes her desires, she is opening doors—for you to do more and become the best man around.
Use emotional wisdom to dissect criticism. And stop reacting to what others are saying. Your wife is probably the person closest to you. She alone knows your strengths and weaknesses.
Why is she not praising or complimenting? She does not want you to be complacent. To draw lessons for your personal growth, be a keen listener; listen to her comments closely!
Then train your mind to act instead of react. When you use your emotional wisdom to evaluate, when you are in earnest about being the best, then negative comments become music to your ears!
You Are the Light of the World!
39660.pngYou are the light of the world,
proclaims the Bible. Why are you the light of the world? You are the dispeller of the darkness of ignorance! "Aham brahmasmi, proclaims Hindu scriptures—
Every human is a potential divine," an heir apparent to almighty God, the creator, who made you in his image.
The purpose of life is to seek truth, our identities. Who am I? Why am I here? What is my purpose? Asking these questions basically alters our paradigms. A paradigm shift is essential for transformation.
We are not here just to eat, sleep, and reproduce. Humanity is the greatest creation on planet Earth. You are a lion but think you are a simple donkey! Alter your thoughts; think like a lion, and roar!
You are made in the image and likeness of God; you were born to win, succeed, and make a difference. A simple awareness that you are here for a purpose is all that you need to shine as the light of the world.
What Is Fate in Life?
39662.pngIn many cultures, we talk about fate. Is there something called fate in life? Fate is spelled f-a-t-e, fruit ate—we have to eat the fruit of our actions.
Even innocent children have to eat the fruit. If they put their hands in the fire, their hands will be burned. So parents protect their children from fire. As adults, we are our own protectors.
The law of karma says the same thing, in essence. If you sow the seeds of oranges, you cannot reap apples. If you do good deeds, only good can come out of it, whatever you sow. Only what you sow can you reap
is law.
What is the way out of fate? What can you do? Repent; seek forgiveness from those you have hurt! Plant healing thoughts in your mind, and try to help with divine grace. You shall say goodbye to old fate.
Understanding the law of fate is half the battle. Creating a new fate is well within your reach and control. Start sowing the seeds of a new fate, seeds of gratitude—the spiritual catalyst that can bring true joy into your life.
Emotional Hygiene—How to Practice It
39664.pngEmotional hygiene is essential for emotional health. Emotional health is as important as physical health. Understanding emotions is the basis of emotional hygiene. You can even produce emotions to learn from them.
External factors—such as an accident or somebody’s speech or action—cause those emotions. Emotion is really intense energy movement. Here, I refer to thought energy as intense movement.
Anger, fear, and grief are three basic negative emotions. Love, compassion, kindness, and gratitude are positive. Different people manage their emotions differently based on culture, upbringing, and personal traits.
You can calculate your vulnerability to situations and prepare yourself to deal with them effectively. Anybody can react to a situation and be a victim of a resulting outburst of violent emotions.
Emotional hygiene involves an acute awareness that you are the master of your emotions. You can be in control by understanding the nature of your emotions; you can learn to manage every situation through practice.
Don’t wait until your house is on fire to seek a fire extinguisher. Practice emotional hygiene every day. Cultivating positive emotions like love, compassion, and gratitude is the best practice to overcome negative emotions.
There Are No Accidents in the Universe!
39666.pngYou are on purpose! The universe is on purpose! There are no accidents in the universe! Accept all the events that take place in your life. Analyze every event, learn the lesson, and move on.
Every experience, better or bitter, is a teacher appointed by the universe to deliver a message. Read and internalize the message in
