Interior mirror

Today, when the myth of universal "equality" (sameness) is significantly deteriorated, it will be much easier to perceive the wisdom of the ancients, who asserted that all things and beings have their own mode of existence, different from others.

Moreover, even in one and the same person is difficult to find two identical States of mind during the day, month, or year. Only bad thing is that (as an exception that proves the rule) and these States of mind often have a negative common denominator – the habit of paying attention mostly on the negative side of things.

With this approach, the person becomes a "Martyr", understood by nobody, a victim of other people that don't like and can't appreciate... and so on, with many variations, which need not be described here.

This approach is nothing short of self-centeredness, with a more or less pronounced tendency to selfishness, which changes attitudes and behaviour and makes a smart in a stupid, hard-working to lazy, and a potential strength in weakness.





The excess of individualism as bad as the lack of it.

Such a pessimistic and negative approach we see over many years hundreds of people who otherwise would live a very different way, much more authentically, joyfully and humbly. People believe that are the keys to success, but having met the test and failing, blame others, and themselves fall into a state of gloomy despondency. Often you can find someone who is a callous despot in relation to subordinates, but becomes sensitive when he has to obey someone or to listen to comments.

And that's the joy of somewhere to go, and gray clouds cover the haggard mind of a man who considers himself a victim of injustice, while not getting tired to claim on its merits and the mistakes of others.

I am reminded of the idea of Plato about "the eyes of the soul" from the fact that they are addressed depends on what we perceive – dark, grey or bright. You can imagine that within us there is a mirror that can change its position. And that mirror reflects back to you what it means. If it is loose and falls, it affects the lower part of the world, with all its shadows, dangers and misfortunes.

If with a little effort, we can raise it to at least the vertical position, field of view is significantly expanded and it contains brightening the horizons and a lot of interesting things and creatures, worthy of attention. So the soul increases its ability to perceive, and therefore understand, decide, act.

If by an effort of will, we will raise the mirror, then all the hostile and negative will be barely visible and the Sky light will bring beauty and joy into our hearts. Our soul naturally opens for success, for joy, and growing wisdom shows us the true wonders and hidden engines of visible things. We will discern the hand of God in all creation and his great Plan, managing all the ideas and all things.

And so, sincerely surrendering to the contemplation of these wonders, we gradually forget their own selfish needs, their ignorance, which shifts to other shoulders the burden of our debt, our responsibility that ennobles us and justifies our lives.

If we support the reflection of the Sky in your soul, everything will become easier, and our steps more pleasant, joyful and fruitful. Truly, this effort is worth it, because from one seed will grow a forest – prosperity, happiness and harmony with oneself, the ability to see clearly milestones the Path and characteristics of the Travellers – all that with a mirror reflecting only darkness, it is impossible to distinguish.

Fluctuations are reduced, and the fear is replaced by excitement – renewing and invigorating.

Plaintive cries turn into smiles, and we begin to better and more natural to perceive anything and everything...

One has only to send up our own internal mirror. published
