Change in Belief and Consciousness in Ongoing - 10 May 09

Swami ji & Yashendu with friends

Yesterday I wrote that you shouldn’t try to convince others to believe something because your own belief can change. This change is an ongoing process for each soul. The universe we live in has the nature of changing. Each moment and each second there is change everywhere. How many times a year does nature change and how often does the weather change? Everything is changing, it is the normal flow of this universe.

When we were children our belief system was different. We knew only our family and did not believe in more than that. When growing up we got to know our neighbours and believed a bit more. Then we got to know more of this world and with each bit our consciousness changed. This is a process from birth to death and everybody can feel this change.

Of course I talk from my point of view but I believe that everybody can look back in their life and see if their belief system, their consciousness and their mind has changed. If you don’t accept this fact and if you didn’t live according to that, you wouldn’t be honest and maybe would have a life with two faces. These days this is the biggest confusion and conflict in the heart of spiritual people whom I meet. I see too often that they say and do something that they don’t believe in. And this creates psychic problems and makes mentally sick. How long will you play a drama? You have to live in your original consciousness.

Our lives are always changing as our life never stops, it keeps going. Just as what and who you are keeps changing. you are not the same as you were 10 years. Life is a journey and we should enjoy every moment.

This is so true. And we cannot feel disappointed or upset when we see that someone else has changed..even if we think it wasn't a change for the better! We simply must support each other through the change and flow of life. Give others the benefit of the doubt that they are changing according their soul's path and the guidance in their heart. Love them still, even when they change.

I agree that thigns change constantly. I am very young still and people always ask me what I am going to do in the future, and I tell them the rough plans I have but I always say too that I can't tell them for sure because everything will change every step of the way. My beliefs will and my desires will.

Words of Wisdom

  • Love

    Maybe you are sad because you still love the other one and he or she doesn’t want to be with you but you still have to love your love! Don’t be angry with yourself for this feeling and don’t switch into hate because of this advice. It is okay to follow your heart.

    Source
  • Sex

    Equality does not mean that you give sexual freedom to women and control, blame, accuse and judge men!

    Source
  • Prediction

    Human is just a puppet in a big play. You think you are in charge but there is something bigger than you. Nature, god, the universe, however you want to call it. Even if you know your body, you don’t have full control over it. Nobody knows when, what can happen. Nobody can predict anything.

    Source
  • Belief

    Atheists have done something that is not very different from what Buddha has done – they formed just another group with a different belief, the belief that there is no god.

    Source
  • Hope

    Hope is always good and it is part of having a positive attitude. Believing that the impossible will happen is either closing the eyes in front of reality or just stupid.

    Source
  • God

    Atheists say ‘God is only a thought’. But what is wrong with having a good thought?

    Source
  • Sharing

    Sharing has a double effect: it decreases sadness and increases happiness!

    Source
  • Religion

    Going to the temple or to church regularly does not make you religious. You are religious when you have compassion in your heart for helping others, when you wish them well and give your effort to make this wish come true.

    Source
  • Fear

    Religious people chose religion out of fear that religion could be right and they could really go to hell. They are fearful from the root and religion adds fuel to this fear, presenting guidelines to just narrowly escape eternal pain.

    Source
  • Love

    Don’t love with the condition that the other one acts the way you wish.

    Source
  • Family

    Have dinner, lunch or breakfast or maybe all meals in family. It connects you with each other. In this way love can go through the stomach. Share your day with each other, take part in each other’s lives!

    Source
  • Religion

    When a Muslim woman gets raped, the law of Islam says she has to bring forward four adult men who can confirm that she was raped, otherwise she will be the one punished. Imagine, after the physical torture of being raped, you are being tortured mentally, too!

    Source
  • Friend

    There is a difference in between friends and customers. Customers want something from you. Friends want you.

    Source
  • Food

    Make one meal a day a meeting point, a ritual for the whole family together.

    Source
  • Closeness

    You cannot share closeness, intimacy and trust with hundreds of people at the same time.

    Source
  • Love

    Love at first sight happens because you have love inside you. Something triggers it, it starts to flow and you fall in love.

    Source
  • God

    I won’t have a problem with your god if he doesn’t think that women are less intelligent, inauspicious and less worth than men, as it is written in every religion’s books.

    Source
  • Parenting

    If you only ate when you were hungry, you would never have a problem with obesity. Adults and also children get hungry naturally. Don’t eat and don’t let them eat for their entertainment, from boredom or from hunger in their thoughts and eyes.

    Source
  • Religion

    The philosophy of reincarnation forces you to live in past or future.

    Source
  • God

    God doesn’t want to own a house or a temple, he is just there, living in our heart. It is the greed of people who want to own land – and if they can possess it on the name of God, they do.
