Another way of looking at things
@ Monday, 22. Sep, 2008 – 15:05:41
I firmly believe that we ARE our thoughts and that we create our own personal reality with our thoughts. The thoughts we think result in stressful painful emotions or pain-free joyous peaceful emotions.It's all about perception. How we perceive our reality . The good news is , that we can change how we feel by examining , exploring and changing our thoughts. Perhaps not straight away as thoughts come so quickly that we are not aware of most of them, but by catching stressfull thoughts by the tail, writing them down in black and white where they cannot escape and taking a good look at them.
Today I read the same message from two different sources.
Illusion
andIt’s all smoke and mirrors. The pain and chaos isn’t real. We do the damage to ourselves.
Question 2: Why do you give energy to something that’s not real?
The doubt, the reactive energy, the acceptance of defeat - why are you feeding it? It’s not even real!
Question 3: If you understand that it’s not real, why don’t you let it go?
Answer that one for yourself today.
All suffering is in the mind. It has nothing to do with the body
or with a person’s circumstances. You can be in great pain without
any suffering at all.To be in pain and believe that you shouldn’t be in pain—that’s
hell.All suffering is in the mind.
It has nothing to do with the body or with a person’s circumstances. You can be in great pain without any suffering at all.To be in pain and believe that you shouldn’t be in pain—that’s hell.
To question your stressful thoughts, to be a lover of what is, even in pain—that’s heaven.
Pain is actually a friend. It’s nothing I want to get rid of, if I can’t. It’s a sweet visitor; it can stay as long as it wants to. (And that doesn’t mean I won’t take a Tylenol.)
And, even pain is projected: it’s always on its way out. When you understand this, life becomes more peaceful.
Inner Peace is a work in progress -
Starting the week with Peace
@ Monday, 22. Sep, 2008 – 12:04:44
Yesterday , 21st September was an International Day of Peace and millions of souls around the world united in meditations, visions and thoughts of Peace.
Today I was lead to a group whose aim is to unite like-minded people and since I like standing up for Peace I joined and received my very own unique peace number 1976, which , incidentally was the year I took up residence in Sweden and the year my son was conceived.
Inspired by what the organisers wrote, I wrote my own Peace Statement and I am prepared to stand up and be counted and I am passionate about peace; inner and outer peace and do believe that Peace starts with me. Peace starts in my heart. If we want PEACE , we must BE Peace. It's quite a challenge, but I'm up for it.
I am passionate about peace
I am a peace-activist
I am committed to non-violence
I admire Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King Jr & Nelson Mandela
I want to give peace a chance like John Lennon & Yoko Ono
I support the Dalai Lama & Tibetans in exile
I support Aung San Suu Kyi & the Burmese monks
I admire the enlightened inspiring words of Eckhart Tolle,Rumi,Kahlil Gibran,John O’Donohue,
I think the illegal attack, invasion & occupation of Iraq was wrong
I am opposed to George W. Bush's legacy of vengeance & violence
I support Peace One Day on September 21st
I have been called a hippy, an idealist and a dreamer
I want a cleaner, greener, peaceful world.
I am passionate about raising awareness and consciousness.
I know that we are ONE .Love and Peace to us all.
