Mental Health & Stability - March 26, 2020

In this time of social distancing and isolation, some may feel a sense of suffocation. But let us look at our blessings and accept ourselves, the situation and people around us. Contemplation and strengthening your connection with the Supreme Consciousness will help.

When fear is the disease, faith is the medicine. Renew friendships, understand people, and love others unconditionally. For long we have been busy, now is the time to share love. Let us love and support each other as one global family.

Hello friends,

We are all on quarantine in our own houses.

I think it's the same all over the world.

Especially in India we are all kind of in house arrest.

But this is inevitable.

This is the real drastic step our global governments have taken to contain an epidemic.

And we must comply.

We must support.

We must do everything possible to help the government to stabilize the situation.

This is very important.

I understand there are a lot of inconveniences.

Because many people have already told me about their suffocation,

About deteriorating mental levels,

Psychological states,

Feeling terrible,

Self-esteem affected.

All these things are expected.

I have told about this long time ago.

When we are in confinement for an unreasonable time,

More than a reasonable time,

This is bound to happen.

And this is not any external factor.

This is actually something internal.

Because it's a situation that we are used to and then we are forced to.

So we are used to a situation where we were in our extreme freedom.

Where we could go anywhere,

Do whatever we like,

We could buy anything,

We could eat anything,

We could go to places,

We could have entertainments of various levels.

This was our state before.

But right now that's not our state.

It's all confinement.

And we have certain restrictions in food as well.

This is very uncomfortable for many people.

I am responding to a few questions which came to me.

In fact some people have told me that they are going through this process.

I am not surprised.

That's why I am giving this voice message.

In a situation where there is forced isolation,

We are bound to have suffocation.

That is what people feel in prisons.

That's exactly what the animals feel in the factory farms.

That's what the animals feel in zoos.

So wherever there is confinement,

There is suffocation.

And there is a lot of distraction.

Then we start blaming every external factor like governments,

Like enforcement bodies for our state.

It's not true.

It's actually the sign of times.

The situation is not created by our governments,

Global governments.

They have not done this.

This has happened due to whatever reasons.

I don't even go into who created it because that's already created.

Let's look at the effect.

We will not look at the source because there is no need of knowing the source right now because it will not help us.

It will only probably accent or accelerate our suffocation,

Our discontentment.

I would rather you focus on your inner state.

And some people ask me,

How did you attain a state of calmness?

So my answer is that are you ready to have that answer?

I am not underestimating you.

I'm not saying that you are not up there.

It's not the point.

The point is that in every situation,

If we have the ability to remain calm,

Not blaming any other bodies,

Any other external factors,

People,

Places,

Time,

Various situations,

And just count on our merits.

We have a place to sleep.

Number one,

That is a shelter.

Second,

We have food to eat.

Maybe that's not the food you like to eat,

But we have something to eat.

We can satisfy our hunger.

We have something to eat.

We have a place to sleep.

And we have some kind of protection from the environment.

So this is exactly the basics that we look for,

Any existence looks for,

Any human being,

Any being looks for.

So we have that.

And I think this is very,

Very important to understand at this point in time,

Because when emotions are running high and we start fighting with people in the families,

We start blaming them for past events and reasons and stuff,

We are creating hell in our own homes.

And I think that we should never do that,

Because now God or the nature has kept us together in our homes,

Our families together.

And that should be counted as a blessing,

Not as a curse.

We should always look at our blessings.

And if you have to reach higher levels of awareness,

You need to have a lot of,

Very high level of acceptance.

Acceptance is very important.

Acceptance of oneself,

Acceptance of the situations,

Acceptance of the people around you.

And even if some people in your household are angry,

Upset,

And they're blaming,

It is up to you to give them the reasons and the awareness.

You should tell them,

Look here,

All that you talk have no value in the situation,

Which is not created by us.

It has fallen on us.

You know,

It's like you are out there in the streets and then the rain starts and there's no shade.

You will be drenched.

That's not because you did anything wrong or somebody did something wrong that it happened that way.

The situation created it and the effect you are experiencing.

Now there are places where people said the police are literally attacking or beating people when they come to get some resources,

Et cetera.

Well,

I would like to say that this is part of the enforcement body's job.

You know,

They have been instructed not to have people coming together in some places because then it gets transferred.

One person can infect a thousand people or maybe more if he goes into public places.

So we need to understand that these enforcement bodies have their job to do.

Maybe they are doing it aggressively because they don't want any chances.

So there's no point in blaming that.

I think we should just take care of ourselves and we should follow orders and we should trust the governments now,

Whichever country you are in,

We should trust the governments to do their best.

As I had said earlier,

No government was equipped to handle something of this nature.

They never expected a situation of this kind where there is total embargo.

Like you can't move anywhere,

You can't go anywhere.

All the borders are closed and situations are out of control.

So they will definitely do whatever it takes or whichever way they can to create that effect where the disease does not spread.

So we need to comply.

We need to accept.

Now lastly,

What I would like to say is that this is a great chance for you to develop your highest level of awareness.

First stop blaming anybody.

That's the first step.

Nobody is responsible for this.

Maybe we can say collective consciousness created this effect.

If collective consciousness of unconscious life was not responsible,

We will not be in confinement.

It's collective consciousness.

Collective consciousness of insensitivity,

Collective consciousness derived out of unconscious lifestyles and collective consciousness of taking the nature for granted or the collective consciousness that took our nature for granted.

And we have encroached into every territory.

We have captured and tormented various species.

We have done much harm to our own brotherhood,

Our own nature,

Means our own fellow species,

The species who are coexisting with us.

We have harmed them.

We thought they all are for us to enjoy or do whatever it takes.

And then just like we had slavery in the past where we used to buy people and sell people and use people as they like and kill people if you don't like.

Same thing we are doing with animals today.

So this mindset has to change and nature is giving us a chance to do that.

You know,

We are used to certain habits.

Habits are broken.

Addictions,

We are used to certain addictions.

Some people are addicted to cigarettes and some people are addicted to alcohol or drugs and so many things and that's not available.

So they go through tremendous stress and if there are some such people in your house,

They would be displaying various levels of irritation and violence or aggression.

So we have to handle them.

There's no other way.

We need to have enough stability to handle everything in our houses.

And maybe you won't get much medical support at this point in time because all the doctors,

All the clinics are busy taking care of the coronavirus situation.

So you may not get much assistance on the de-addiction people,

Etc.

So that has to be understood.

And some people are going into the level of suicide and because their addictions are really,

Withdrawal symptoms are really wild and violent.

I understand that too because that's part of it.

And that was supposed to be in this kind of a forced isolation.

So every situation you look,

These are all chances for you to be stable,

Calm and you should handle situation as it comes.

First of all,

The first step is acceptance,

Non-resistance.

Second step is that accepting the society,

Accepting the environment as it is.

And please understand,

Now the governments have said only the family members and the close family members stay together.

The rest of the people should not be staying in houses.

This is not a punishment.

This is because they want to isolate and monitor.

This I understand.

I spoke to somebody in this enforcement thing and they said they don't want to punish anybody.

They want to make sure that the people who are outside the family stay outside the family so that the families are taken care of so that individually or in one group they can contain the possibility of virus spreading.

I think that we need to just obey and follow what the government says.

So we are not supposed to keep any non-family members in our houses and we are not supposed to go to other houses.

But at the same time we must take care of our people.

So if you have anybody isolated and they don't have access,

Our people are isolated,

Don't have access to medical support or shelter or food,

Do let us know.

We will try to do something but no guarantee what we can do because we also do not have mobility.

And do not blame God.

Do not blame situations.

Do not blame gurus.

Do not blame your father and mother.

Do not blame your doctors.

You do not blame your government.

This blame game is going to really sap your energy and that's not going to give you any kind of strength.

Secondly,

Fear is absolutely not required.

If you have taken precaution,

If you are staying away,

If you are following the instructions of the government,

The public authority,

The hospitals,

You don't have to worry.

If you engage into activities which are not recommended then you are responsible,

Not them.

So we must understand the situation clearly and then we must obey accordingly.

We must follow accordingly.

So again coming back to this question,

Please take care of yourself.

Please take care of your family and accommodate everybody.

People of your own family will have various demands and various disappointments.

So we must as a family try to contain it,

Not that we blame others and we fight with each other and make it miserable inside the house where you can't even exist together.

So don't make that situation.

Pacify everybody.

Talk to everybody and you make sure everybody understands and take your time.

Maintain silence if possible.

If you have strength and if you have gained strength,

Talk to the world and give them strength.

If you have strength,

If you have stability,

Share it.

That's the highest thing you can do in this time because social media is active.

You have all those spaces to convey your message and use it properly and convey your strength and your stability.

If you are unstable then you have to maintain silence.

You have to do more of pranayama,

Breathing,

Meditate,

Connect to yourself and look at yourself as an outsider.

What exactly is annoying you?

What is making you angry?

And don't blame outside entities,

Outside beings.

That's not important.

That's escapism.

Instead you should see what is hurting you inside.

If you are very steady in your connection with the supreme consciousness,

God or Guru,

Nothing will destabilize you.

This is for sure.

That's the only connection you need at this point in time.

So you need to see what is destabilizing you.

What is annoying you?

What is making you irritated?

Those are the things which you probably need to pluck out of your system.

And that's a good thing.

Write them down and understand,

Okay,

This particular thing is irritating me.

Not having a cigarette is irritating me.

Not having coffee is irritating me.

Anxiety for not having the food which I want to eat is irritating me.

This is good for your introspection.

You can understand where you stand.

I leave you with these thoughts and please think about it and try to understand and try to assimilate yourself and stop blaming the governments and the systems and the enforcement authorities.

And don't blame the family members,

Each other for past events and past actions and try to make people's life miserable in the house.

Instead try to love,

Try to forgive everything.

Try to love and give lots of love to people.

People really need love.

And probably we fail to give love to our own people since a long time.

This is the right time to do that.

So give love,

Share love,

Protect people and tell people,

I love you within the family.

You know,

If you have not told them for a long time,

Tell them now and show that and maybe make it very sincere.

You know,

This is the right time to do that because you have the people within your house.

Convey to your friends that you care through the social media,

Etc.

And always understand that together we are strong and divided,

Separated,

We are weak.

So let us remain together as one family,

One global family.

And let us support each other as one global family.

All people are in the same situation like us.

So don't try to portray yourself as a victim.

We are all victims in that mode.

So don't worry about it.

This is the time,

As I said yesterday,

To press the reset button and completely cleanse yourself and make yourself stronger and stable.

And then the world will be better.

Your world will be better for you.

This is the right chance for that.

I'm always with you.

I'm walking with you.

And I will always be with you.

Just be happy and do your best.

Lots of love.
