Positive or negative, there are two kinds of atmospheres:
1. the atmosphere outside
2. the atmosphere within us
Keep your home simple and clutter-free; keep the quality of your thoughts clutter free to create a fresh atmosphere outside and inside.
Look at the way you think, speak and your leisure activities. Hidden pollution –clutter– over time affects us. Little, unfinished issues result in ‘stuck’ energy and this affects us. That clutter needs to be cleaned.
The secret to creating the right atmosphere is to try to keep peace inside. What kind of thoughts do I have? Ordinary? Negative? Wasteful?
I am going to create my thoughts rather than they -my thoughts- think me.
When I have thoughts of peace I create a peaceful atmosphere. It’s an unspoken energy that heals and sustains. Take minutes out during the day to create this peace.
When I have a very pure and positive relationship with myself, it affects the atmosphere around me.
Start with yourself, create that heaven around you.
To become such a beacon of peace I need to constantly catch my negative chatter and change it to positive. The more I focus on the positivity within me the more it comes out. It is not suppressing or expressing, both of which poison myself and others, but I transform my negative traits by acknowledging my positive qualities. Restart training the self by thinking positive thoughts.
If I am peaceful myself each thought will make a difference, I will become like a light house. Ask a lost ship!
When I am using my every moment in a right way I have inner contentment, – happiness that is not dependent on anything external.
Then I can become a beacon of love: I can have loving thoughts about the self and even for the ones who give me difficulty.
Building relationships:
1. Begin by not holding other people’s mistakes in our hearts, letting go.
2. Gratitude: not ‘maybe I could have done better’. Start with the little things and be appreciative. Accept things for what they are at this point in time, be thankful for that. The feeling of neediness then goes away. Become someone who is giving by developing gratitude for the self.
3. Then you will want to give blessings: having feelings of benevolence, love and cooperation, silent but pure, powerful and non-judgemental feelings for others. Be like cool water on people’s anger. I can help other people to grow in this way as people pick up those vibes. They pick up the unconditional feelings.
How do you get rid of the negative memories and images in our mind?
Meditation is the most powerful and focused way to clean out our negative feelings. As you reflect on thoughts of truth, meditation becomes like a tap that fills in the dirty glass with clean water.
