Our thoughts are vibrations and we are the storehouse of these vibrations. Just like a recorder records all the information that we want it to store, our mind stores all the information that we want it to know. The quality of the CD in our recorder determines the quality of our recorded material; similarly, how we respond to different events and experiences in our life is determined by what we chose to store in our minds. The quality of our life is founded on our reactions. Do we choose to react positively or negatively is under our control if we are educated about the universal and psychological laws operating beneath our conscious mind.. Many of us start giving an idea to our mind that our life events are not determined by us but that we are under the control of circumstances and people around us. This kind of energy flow brings the related outcomes.It is very important to understand that what our conscious mind believes to be right is accepted by our sub-conscious as reality. Our sub conscious readily accepts what we pour into our conscious minds. Sub conscious mind is the creative intelligence within each one of us. Learning to tap into that infinite intelligence is a skill that can transform our existence. It is just like saying that when we wear green glasses, the world around us appears to be green also; when we put on red glasses, the world appears red to us. It is upto us to decide whether we feel the best by wearing green or red glasses. The world around us is the representation of our thoughts. Our emotions are also thoughts represented with greater intensity than any thought generated by facts. We learn to give meaning to life through the thought patterns accumulated over the years. These thoughts have been shaped as we were growing up. We prefer to use this set pattern of thoughts as a representation of who we are. Everyone of us has come to believe that this particular kind of thought we believe in is right but this may not be true of another person walking by our side. Simply educating ourselves first on the infinite variations that can exist in this world due to the infinite intelligence operating within ourselves can help us rid of many of the problems. This level of understanding can help at least in neutralizing a lot conflicts generated out of differences in opinions.

Energy Awareness
Each atom and molecule in the universe resonates to energy vibrations. The energetic communication taking place at various planes of existence is perceived in different ways by different people. However, we have collective unconscious or universal consciousness through which we share common beliefs, experiences and roles in life. We are so different and so much alike at the same time. The differences in our personalities are the co-creation of our ego mind sets whereas our likeness is a co creation of the One Spirit we are part of.
Energy of thought is the most powerful energy flooding our consciousness from all the sides. We hate, love, like, dislike, nag, appreciate, resent, pray and enter into the myriad dynamics of energetic communication within each given moment. The question is how powerfully attuned we are in any given moment with our energy.
Awareness of energetic patterns of our consciousness is a powerful way to connect with our true self and gain insights into our life purpose. Each one of us has some unfinished business on this planet for which we have been sent here.
The journey to explore your energy is a powerful journey and the only journey that will define the course of planetary evolution in the new age. We are entering the time in our consciousness when we are evolving to a level of understanding our life as a series of vibrational coincidences.
Our thoughts are bombarding the energy field all the time creating a halo of dense energy field around our bodies. We are attuned to external events and people and have not learnt to attune ourself to the inner energy field in an actively conscious manner.
Surrender is the Key
Our big fat egos are like the layers of fat in our bodies that need exercise to melt them. We may like to resist this by thinking “I don’t think so”. If this is your answer, ask yourself “Am I completely in harmony with the people around me or with myself?” If you are, you may be right in thinking so; otherwise it’s time to be honest with yourself. The size of our egos vary like the sizes of our bodies. Some of us may need to exercise lesser than the others to surrender the darker aspects of our egos that may appear in the forms of resistance, anger and dislike.
Ego is a an essential part of our well being provided we have learnt to connect with the healthy aspects of it. What is a healthy ego? A person with a healthy ego takes responsibility for his actions and reactions. He doesn’t blame external circumstances and chooses to find the solutions instead of pondering on the problems. He constantly maintains healthy attitude and perceptions about himself and of things related to him. I’m sure it must be seeming like a lot of work for some of you and the thought itself must have created a reaction to turn away from further reading it. This is called resistance my friends. Identifying it is the first step on a journey to self development. It’s time to be aware that whatever turn you off is a resistance reaction in you that is preventing you from accepting something.
This awareness itself can help you to reach out to help yourself and expand your consciousness to experience that there is more to life than we have allowed ourselves to experience. Surrendering your resistance through self awareness and creating an intention to let go is the vital step to experience expansion in your consciousness and filling your life with abundance of growth and happiness.
Awareness Tip of the Day
You are getting a signal to become aware and change something in you when you find yourself getting angry at someone or something. Ask yourself what is it that you hate about the person or the situation and why it has the power to affect you. May be you need to cultivate more patience, compassion, cooperation, kindness, flexibility or sensitivity.
Listening to the Signals
We are always getting signals through people, situations and actions we undertake about the changes we can make to grow and expand our levels of happiness. Learning to attune to those signals need awareness and application of that awareness to filter information through different events that take place during the day. Remember how you feel when someone compliments you or criticizes you. Appreciation makes us feel good and criticism make us feel down. Feeling down is a signal about getting to know yourself better. Someone criticized you and you lost your mind to them. It is easy to feel like this but it becomes easier to live life if we begin to take more control of our emotions by attuning to them as an observer and begin to take control of how to recycle them for better world.I feel there is so much to focus on about ourselves when we we decide to go on a path of self development that is holistic, we find ourselves focusing and processing about the changes that improve our internal and external conditions. It is a constant process or I would say becomes a subconscious pattern once we are initiated into it. Initiation is a transition phase where we can find ourselves on a roller coaster ride experiencing confusion and varied emotions in our attempt to leave something we no longer want to be a part of us.
Natural rhythm of our body and mind is always at hand ready to serve us the moment we create an intention to attune to it. How much attuned are you to your natural rhythm or do you remember feeling that rhythm?
Awareness Tip of the Day
Tune to your natural rhythm by slowing down a bit and listen to the signals your body is giving about your actions that are making you feel tired and stressed. They may not be in sync with your true self.
Developing Emotional Awareness
Cleansing a greased utensil requires a a great deal of effort and we are well aware of the fact that if we fail to remove the oil from the utensil with cold water, we must bring to use the hot water. We are well aware of the external things and how to keep them clean if they look dirty. Do we ever make the same conscientious effort to create awareness of our emotional patterns? We dig and dig deep into the things that are completely unrelated to our personal lives and spend many hours talking of things and people that have practically no relationship to make a sensible difference in our lives. We are simply unaware of our own energy flow and lack of this awareness sets our life into a kind of pattern that feels familiar and so gives a sense of security and pleasure. We go through ups and downs like the waves of the ocean but fail to see from the distance the pattern of rising and falling that only a distant observer standing away from the ocean can see.
Creating emotional awareness is like setting a intention to be a distant observer who can see with complete clarity the rising and falling of the emotional waves that make or break our day. Developing emotional awareness is a skill and once we make make up our mind to focus on the emotions we create and relate to different situations and people, we are taking a step in the direction called self development.
Awareness Tip of the Day
Develop the habit of maintaining silence at the end of the day for 5 minutes and observe how you felt during the day; focus on how your emotions fluctuated like the voltage of a bulb. This will make you aware of some of your patterns.
Familiar Patterns vs Unfamiliar Patterns
We all want to stick with our habitual patterns since they seem to offer a sense of security and comfort. Treading the unfamiliar zone is always a scary thought. However, these habitual patterns do not always have the power to give us what we secretly want.
At the same time, we are are not aware of the the block in our awareness that stops us from attaining what we want. Getting to know ourself better and better with each passing day is a practice that helps to expand our horizons. This practice does involve a great deal of honesty and courage to dig into patterns we display that emanate negative thought for people, situations or for our own selves. Blaming and complaining are the most common collective consciousness patterns that we display from time to time. When we are doing so, we are completely unaware of the abundance of positive vibrations available and that we could learn to tune to for better health and well being. The experience of tuning into positive thought vibrations is indeed a gift you can give to yourself and learn more about the positive energy around you that is lying dormant.
Awareness Tip of the Day:
- Think of one habit of others that displeases you.
- Think if somewhere you also display that habit.
- Think why that habit has the power to displease you.
- The answer will at least make you aware of something you need to eliminate from your life.
