Welcome to day 21 of soul sustenance.
Let me share a story today.
You may have heard this but I feel it's a good reminder to us all.
There was a king who was asked by a traveler how he was able to run his kingdom so peacefully without attachment,
Worry or concern.
The king then invited the traveler to come and see his kingdom.
Before the young man set off the king gave the young man an ignited light,
A Deepak which is a flame in a small clay pot with oil.
The king had one condition.
He gave instructions to the young man that as he walked through the kingdom he must ensure that no matter what the flame should not go out.
At the close of the day and at the end of the tour the tired traveler returned.
The king inquired about how his day had been and what he had seen.
The man exclaimed nothing.
But why was that asked the king.
Well I was too busy ensuring the light would not blow out replied the man.
Ah said the king and that is the secret to running my own kingdom.
I am so busy ensuring that my inner light does not extinguish so I am not entangled by the attachments and the beauty of the surroundings.
So we are all kings ruling our kingdom we call life.
We cannot push the outer world away just as it is impossible to push out the darkness but we can certainly focus on staying calm and peaceful ensuring that our inner light does not blow out or blow up as the case may be.
There are so many challenges and storms that come during our lifetime which try to blow out our light.
Those storms come to all of us at different times in our life but it is the one who is able to weather those storms and still keep a smile on their face that we call an enlightened soul who gains victory as the storms pass.
As we drift into our meditation let's become aware that we are spiritual beings separate from the body.
Detach and focus on the inner light,
The soul,
The king,
The master.
I am a being of radiant light full of virtues and powers.
I am a master bestower.
I am love.
I am peace.
I am bliss and eternal truth.
I need to maintain this awareness remaining stable and focused so I can affect the outer world my kingdom with positivity.
I find that my light blows out when I have given away my power to situations.
When I complain,
Take sorrow and when I get upset and moody.
However,
When I remain happy,
Light and flexible,
Humorous,
Loving,
Carefree,
Easy and content,
My light remains lit.
I realize that everything around me is a vibrating energy.
The physical world is an expression of energy.
My consciousness is a subtle energy too.
When I come into the light,
I step out of the shadow of illusion,
Fear,
Ego,
Blame,
Guilt and sorrow.
I step into the eternal moment of lightness and virtue.
As I learn to master my thoughts and feelings,
I become in charge of the voltage and the current of my inner light.
Joy,
Peace and love radiate as powerful and positive energy.
Being light,
I connect with the divine,
The supreme light.
I journey upwards to the realm of light beyond time and space.
The dimension of pure light energy.
My home of light,
Nirvana.
In this dimension,
I charge the battery of the soul.
I now have the power to affect and influence everything around me,
Just like the sun.
I become an angel of light,
Spreading light into the world,
Spreading love all around,
Sowing seeds of abundance across the rich soil of the entire planet.
I send pure feelings and good wishes from the heart to my loved ones,
Friends and to the world.
Helping to ignite their light so that they too can spread love all around.
Let's practice running out in a kingdom with our soul fully illuminated and turned on.
Continue to return to soul consciousness throughout the day and you will begin to radiate a different light energy.
Let your inner light shine.
Om Shanti.
