Month: July 2020

How many times have you been disappointed about things or with somebody today?

Unfortunately, I have been depressed from disappointments many times.

 “Why should I experience hardships?”

 “I want to be recognized for my efforts and skills.”

 “I am talented, but my inferior work colleagues make it impossible to finish this project!”

There are many people who always have to be right and put the blame on someone else.

The dictionary defines ‘disappointed’ as: “depressed or discouraged by the failure of one’s hopes or expectations”’.

Here is another question.

Is it someone else’s total responsibility to accomplish your hopes and expectations even if you explain about it in advance?

It is your own responsibility to realize your hopes and expectations.

Of course, we sometimes need help and supports from others.

If you complain and show your dissatisfaction to others frequently, and make them unhappy, will they support you in an emergency?

I guess you can get attention from others through grumbling about other’s faults; however, it happened in an instant. In the worst case, they will push back against you.

First of all, we need to look back on what we have said and done before.

Since a person who cannot feel happy for others focuses on themselves without knowing other’s efforts and considerations, they may feel envy or regretful to others.

When you think everything based on self-centered love, you might evaluate and distinguish positive or negative without thoughts for others through your prejudicial glasses.

No one can always judge or decide rightly.

 “Take off your prejudicial glasses and look over widely.”

You will be able to see it more positively when you change your perspective. Moreover, the aggressive thoughts will gradually fade away.

Most people get trapped in the situation and believe they are victims of unfortunate circumstances; however, the place was also prepared by God in order to develop your own abilities and potentials.

When you realize it, you will be able to shift mind to appreciation and gratitude.

Depending on your thoughts, you can step forward to realize your own hopes and expectations or your deeds will hinder you from realizing your hopes and expectations.

When setting your mental attitude following “Look over without a Biased Viewpoint”, you will be able to grasp the successes higher than your hopes and expectations, and become the one who will be a LIGHT in the world.

There is nothing in the world that should be taken for granted.

How much have you been conscious of it and thankful?

When everything goes well, many people are full of complaints and dissatisfaction.

 “Hey, I don’t want to eat this! Give me the more delicious one!”

 “My paycheck is too little for my labor. I really want a company to raise my wage more.”

 “My clothes don’t suit me. I want to have stylish outfits!”

 “I want extra paid vacation!”

 “I want to live in a wealthy neighborhood!”

 “It’s so bored. I’m getting exhausted. Someone, talk with me!”

In those cases, what do you get greedy for?

Nowadays, the world is overflowing with various things; nevertheless, most people can’t control their insatiability, and their gratitude and appreciation gradually fade away.

What if a sudden unexpected accident or disaster befalls you and you lose everything?

Many people realize that they took convenience for granted when things didn’t work out.

Moreover, they now feel happiness from even the simplest things.

 “A contented mind is a perpetual feast.”

The more one has, the more one wants; however, the person who satisfies every circumstances and state within their means is abundant and ample in their mind.

It is significant to think God always prepares the best place for you and everything around you.

It does not mean that you need to endure the current situation which you may feel uncomfortable. When you are thankful for everything around you including your presence in this world, your heart will become enriched and overflowing with gratitude.

Today, it seeks the immediate interests, so most people focus on obtaining many things.

Depending on how you look at it, it will enrich your heart, or it will make your heart poor.

The key to become satisfied in your heart is to accept the present state of affairs and to thank every aspect and circumstance that we feel natural to get it.

Things can be viewed in different ways from different perspectives.

If you grasp the way of life following “A contented mind is a perpetual feast”, you will become the LIGHT and a person who is better able to handle adversity.

I conveyed about human desire last week, saying;

‘Human desire is the creation of God for the purpose of human progress.’

‘You can put out a great deal of healthy desire.’

‘However, evil desire needs to be firmly under control.’

Healthy desire and evil desire are just like two sides of a coin.

Just as a coin always shows either side of the coin, a person’s desire shows either a healthy desire or evil desire.

For example, let’s say you’ve set up a business with a business partner.

The business has taken off smoothly, and you’ve gained momentum.

When you are about to expand further, however, you and your business partner have a disagreement.

Your business partner has a different attitude and files a lawsuit against you.

As a result of the lawsuit, you lose the ownership of your business, including the property for business use.

There is no shortage of stories like this, and people’s minds are always subject to change.

What should have been a healthy desire can quickly turn into an evil desire.

The truth is, it’s your choice which side of the coin you want to show.

People can essentially fall into evil desires, and it is impossible to remove the nature of evil desire from you completely.

Essentially, your desire can grow either healthy or evil.

The only thing we can do is to perfectly control our desire and continue to put out healthy desire only.

To do so, first of all, you need to understand where the essence of healthy desire and evil desire come from

The place where the healthy desire comes from is your soul.

Your main soul is located in a place medically called the pineal gland in your brain.

This pineal gland is where a person’s soul dwells, and from this soul, righteous consciousness, self-awareness is always emitted.

People say ‘anything is possible’; this is because the power of a person’s soul is inherently infinite.

You can become who you want to be in your life because your soul has the power as a child of God.

Conversely, one has another aspect of spirit that governs desires; it is called ‘sub-spirit’ and is located a little below your navel.

One’s desires always come out of this sub spirit.

As a power relationship, righteous consciousness from your main soul is always supposed to be stronger than any desire out of the sub spirit.

You have to be in perfect control of the desires that come in.

The desire that comes out of the sub spirit tends to run out of control when it goes too far.

It is natural to desire money to survive.

However, sometimes people’s desires can go out of control, driving them to criminal behavior.

Desire can go out of control, and this is especially true when the righteous consciousness of your soul is weakened.

Therefore, the righteous consciousness must be sufficient to control your desires well.

Divine Light that we practice is a compelling method to rejuvenate your main soul and let you freely control your desire.

We’ll continue next week.
