Do I give these invitations to mood to come and visit?
1. Making comparisons
2. Expectations
3. Environmental influences: the weather
4. Extreme situations, like 9/11, 7/7
5. Tending not to face the self or the problems
6. And worst of all, indifference – there are no feelings in your heart anymore.
Moods paralyse your will power.
1. Develop an interest to overcome feeling “not interested, couldn’t care less”
Remember:
– the spiritual journey is about living in this world, having the most beautiful relationships with yourself and others and learning to be happy once again. It is your birthright.
– Self-discovery is a journey to freedom, whereby you remove the mask to find your original truth.
Mood is the reflection of negativity upon my truth.
2. Become mentally active. Allow your mind to reflect upon truth, qualities like calm, joy, bliss, etc. The secret of success in spiritual life is a mind that’s filled with a quality flow of truth. Meditation destroys mood and creates heaven in your mind
An empty mind is the devil’s workshop.
3. Use creative thinking, as this brings you in tune with your spirit. It makes you joyous
Imagination causes emotions to arise.
4. Replace negativity with positivity. Don’t suppress negativity otherwise your feelings will explode and there will be no fear in your heart, replace them instead.
5. Work with yourself with a lot of patience, perseverance and love.
Understand that the negativity is not the true you. Accept the negativity, don’t deny it. Develop compassion for yourself.
E-motion = energy in motion that has moved away from my control
6. Wake up to a new day: What newness do I need to create?
Outcome:
– Power to prevent unwanted guests
– Tranquillity in adoration and insult, pleasure and suffering.
– Equanimity.
– No experience of pain.
