Reflection…

Reflection…

“Silence is Golden.” We observe silence in the moments of tests and turbulences. In the moments of listening to the hurtful words of your peers, friends, family or strangers and also in the moments of projections and perceptions of others as well. Observe, Silence. Listen to the inner voice and be calm. Think what is going on within the psyche of the person speaking in that moment, how and what they are feeling. Spoken word is just like the arrow that once takes off the bow is hard to stop. Be mindful. Maybe just be quite. You are not required to react. You can just be the observer. The observed silence may just allow you the grace of the universe. Someone once said, ” What you see in others is a reflection of yourself.”

Dr. Deepak Chopra writes in an article titled The Mirror of Relationship (http://www.chopra.com/community/online-library/tips/the-mirror-of-relationship), “The essential nature of the universe is the coexistence of opposites. You cannot be virtuous if you do not have the capacity for evil. You cannot be wise if you do not have an inner fool. And you cannot be generous if you do not have a stingy person inside you. In fact, the most enlightened people are those who accept their own ambiguity and full potential for light and dark. As the Vedic seers observed, “The measure of your enlightenment is your level of comfort with your own paradoxes.” Everyone we see in the world is a reflection of ourselves, and the traits we see most clearly in others are the ones that are strongest in ourselves. This is called the mirror of relationship and it is a powerful tool for emotional freedom.”

“Patience is a Virtue.”  Another old saying but it is time tested and true. Sounds weird saying this in today’s fast paced world. Every decision is sought fast. Here and Now, in this moment, the desires are presumed to be fulfilled. But behind all this weirdness what is weird is that being weird may not be all that weird. Weird is a weird word to say. Weird word comes along with weirdness. But who knew being weird would be the saving grace. In the moments that we ever feel we are being weighed and judged for what ever unknowns reasons, remember the words of Dr. Wayne W. Dyer, “When you judge another, you do not define them, you define yourself.” A hefty food for thought.

. Peace . Love . Light .
