Yesterday I said that you need to be confident about what you feel. It is really important that people in the west learn again how they feel about things. And many people decide to come to a spiritual healing session because they want to ask me exactly this: How do I do this, how do I feel myself fully again?
One of the points where I would always ask people to start from is this: don’t worry what others think! It doesn’t matter what others feel or believe, you only have to see yourself if you want to find out your feelings. If you look at everyone else and then decide according to their opinion if you like or dislike something, you cannot be honest.
This is even one reason why some people often lie. They don’t even try to find out what they feel themselves, they just hear what the neighbour is saying, see what the friend is doing or remember the opinion that the mother announced, even if that was many years back. And they answer according to that. If the neighbour says yes and they are standing next to the neighbour, they also say yes. If the friend decided that blue is a good colour, they also say blue is a good colour. And when the mother said that wearing a tank top was immodest, this person, without thinking, will never buy a tank top.
Actually it is a dependency. And in the same way many people act in their daily life with many small but also bigger things without thinking about their own feelings. Take time for doing that! Stop for a second before you reply and feel inside yourself where your thought comes from. And then see your own feeling and what you really want to do or say. trust in yourself!

I have heard from several spiritual teachers and medical inuitives that cancer actually comes from not feeling. When you suppress an emotion and refuse to acknowledge it or let it out, it has nowhere to go but to be stored in the body. After lots of time doing this, your body eventually has to react. Your cells become destructive to themselves from holding all the pain. They demand that you finally listen to your body in the way that you would never listen to your feelings.

The human mind is the most deceitful of all things. It is incurable. No one can understand how deceitful it is. (Jeremiah 17:9) God seems to say otherwise. I'll believe God, thank you.

My teacher taught me long ago that sometimes we are worried about what others are thinking of us when actually they are not thinking about us. They are worried about what we are thinking of them. I guess the lesson is to just be present and project the beauty that is inside us out into the world. Namaste, my friend.

Be honest with your feelings. If the other one likes you or not, it is okay.
SourceYoga is only yoga. Without any tradition’s name in front or behind. People have to understand the essence, the real meaning of yoga which is not any specific style and not only physical exercise.
SourceLife teaches every human. Let it teach your child, too! You are there for bigger problems, decisions and topics, you can protect when it is really necessary, but let your child face circumstances of life in which it learns of life. How will it learn otherwise?
SourceYou can stop smoking right now; it is only your willpower, only your wish and only your decision. Promise yourself not to touch any cigarette in your life anymore even if you die because of it. I can guarantee that you will not die without smoking.
SourceGod lives in the heart and can come wherever you want. Temples and religious buildings are the centers of the business of religion where they see religious people as cows and milk them for money and donations, even by selling tickets. The more money you have, the quicker you can see God and the more blessings you get.
SourcePeople lose their happiness in the effort of keeping others happy although it is impossible to keep everybody happy. Everybody has their own ego and that will clash with each other, no matter what you do. Make yourself happy first.
SourceIsn’t it cruel to show a person that you won’t even touch his arm just because he was born into an untouchable family?
SourceEarning money is an art. Saving money is a bigger art. Spending money is the biggest art. You cannot enjoy money until you spend it. Let this energy move.
SourceEverybody has a heart and a soul. The body is the temple of our soul, in which it lives and we should be very respectful with it. We should not make an exhibition with it and we should not have rules to hide it. Both is not right and if you do one of both, you are disrespecting your body.
SourceLove is when you want to enjoy and laugh together, when you want to smile and celebrate together but also cry together and give each other support in difficult times.
SourceDo what you feel is right. Yes, you may need some more courage to face a few more storms than others. It might get uncomfortable sometimes but it would be much more uncomfortable for you to go against what you really want to do.
SourceSeekers who are searching for the truth go to someone, an organization or Guru, who might know the truth and could lead them towards it. Be careful, you can also be misled!
SourceStop comparing yourself to others and be happy!
SourceBelief and religion is a personal thing. Religious leaders of any religion, be that Hinduism, Islam, Christianity or any other religion, have no right to tell people what to believe.
SourceTeach your children respect for others and themselves. Otherwise as adults they will start having psychic problems, don’t love themselves and don’t respect their body and feelings. Sometimes they even start hurting themselves. And there is nobody to stop them and set them limits. If they are not nice to you, why would they be nice to themselves?
SourceDon't stop expecting - but learn from disappointments!
SourceA woman just gave birth to a new child on this earth, the biggest miracle of nature itself – and Indian superstition calls her impure! Isn't that like a bad joke?
SourcePeople have to develop their consciousness and stop killing animals to fill their stomach. They have a soul like us and god is in them, too.
SourceEven many educated Westerners are interested in materializing gold and thus fooled by Gurus promising fake powers.
SourceWhat you fear is an illusion, a creation of your mind. The world will not stop turning, whatever may happen!
