Practicing being gentle with yourself helps awaken your genuine heart. This compassion, this clarity, this openness is like something we have forgotten. Lightening up in your practice, sitting there being gentle with yourself, you are rediscovering something.
Fate, we think, is a force that interferes with our lives, wrecking things at the worst moments. Yet what we call fate is nothing more than the consequences of our own actions. Each time we act we create a chain of events that is tied to us completely.
Trying to dominate or control events goes against the current of life. Believe in yourself and you don’t have to try and convince others. If you are content with yourself, you don’t need others approval. If you accept yourself as you are, the whole world accepts you.
The real nature of man is originally good, but it became clouded by contact with earthly things and therefore needs refinement before it can shine forth in its’ native clarity. Practice refining your nature, this will widen your awareness and bring you clarity.
Quote: Whoever approaches me, I reciprocate to them in the exact way, shape and form in which they approach me.
