The difficulty of thesituation lies in one's ownstate of mind.Projection: To makesomething big as small orto make something smallas big depends on one'sstate of mind. When one'sstate of mind is good, todeal with situationsbecomes easy. So evendifficult situations arecrossed over with greatease. Then there will beno dependency on theexternal situations tochange the internal stateof mind. That is, there willnever be a reaction toexternal situations butthere will be alwaysstability.Solution: When my stateof mind is good andpowerful, I am confidentof myself and am able toeasily win over allobstacles. Otherwise, thesituation takes hold of theinternal state of my mindand I find myself boundby the situation. At such atime, I find the smallestsituation to a very bigobstacle. But with faith inmyself I am very easilyable to use my innerpower to overcomesituations.----------------------------------------------------------Soul Sustenance08-01-2011----------------------------------------------------------The MentalKaleidoscopeA kaleidoscope createsbeautiful patterns fromchaotic bits and pieces,which are scatteredeverywhere. When thekaleidoscope is turned,disorder becomes order,chaos becomes beautyand symmetry. TheDrama of Life isconstantly turning and weare part of its cyclicmovement; sometimesthis cyclic movement oflife is supportive,comprehensible(understandable) andenjoyable and, at othertimes, it is tense, fearful,stressful andincomprehensible (notunderstandable). There isconfusion and fearbecause we do notunderstand what ishappening, why it ishappening and how it willget better. Things not onlyappear chaotic but alsohopeless. If the intellect isable to go beyond thequestions of 'Why?','What?' and 'How?' andjust be still, withoutjudgements, or pressure,for some period of time,then things do work out.To do this requires faith.The power of faithmeans that we knowthat somehow andsomewhere rightsolutions and answerswill come in their owntime.
