Hello everyone,
Hope you are doing well.
Today I was replying to a message to one person who is experiencing many types of calamities in his life.
On one side there is covid,
Lockdown,
Various situations such as lack of income,
Lack of mobility,
So many things.
I think most of us are experiencing similar things.
We can't travel as we like,
We cannot source food that we are used to.
So many such things.
Nobody is immune to it.
Because it's a global pandemic and everybody is affected.
Cultivation is affected.
Production is affected.
Distribution is affected.
That has affected everybody.
And in many places quarantine or lockdown where your freedom of movement is severely affected.
There is a lot of anxiety built up with all these blockages and lockdowns.
This is quite natural.
So I was telling this person,
Just look into your past.
Every situation was a phase.
Each phase has a duration or each that time if you allow it to pass,
It goes.
And then time is different.
If you just contemplate at this time about your own past,
How many situations we have transcended,
How many difficulties,
How many pleasures.
We have gone through a lot of different situations continuously,
Consistently until we reached here.
Whatever our age is,
We have transcended situations and we have to transcend situations further.
And how do we handle them?
With patience,
With peacefulness and also not getting agitated.
The moment you get agitated,
The moment you develop anxiety,
Everything becomes worse.
The situation sometimes can't be changed.
There is hardly much we can do about it.
Like today,
The COVID situation,
The pandemic situation,
Nobody can change it.
It has to come,
It came.
It had to stay,
It stayed and it will go or it will transform to something else at its time.
Now people are predicting that this may continue for another couple of years.
Maybe we don't know.
All predictions have been without any precision.
It may happen,
It may not happen.
So what is the best we can do to contemplate,
To understand our own past,
Where we have come from?
Before we developed all these habits and requirements,
We had an existence.
That is number one.
We need to remember where we came from,
Our past.
So many things happened in the past,
How we transcended them.
We allowed them to come.
We allowed them to pass.
Things are in phases,
P-H-A-S-E-S,
Phases.
All phases come and go.
Allow it to happen,
Allow it to come and go.
Secondly,
In this situation,
What's the best you can do?
Deliberate positive thought process.
See for example now in the pandemic situation,
Imagine there was no internet,
How it would have been?
We would have been isolated further.
So today what we have is electricity,
Water,
Internet,
Use it very well.
We can do our own small farming,
Vertical farming,
Which is on the walls of the houses,
Or we can do some creative work from home to increase positivity in the world.
Some of our people are now doing fruit tree plantations,
Which is extremely good because the fruit trees will start giving fruits not only to our generation,
Maybe to the next generation too.
And fruit trees give fruits without discrimination.
Means birds,
Animals,
People,
All can enjoy the fruits of these trees planted today.
So we must have hundreds and thousands of fruit trees planted all over the world.
Then the whole world will be like heaven,
Various types of fruits,
Which will feed a lot of beings.
Nature will rejoice.
Nature will be happy.
We are assisting the nature by planting fruit trees.
If you do not have such facilities,
You can at least talk or express something which will create positivity and hope in people's lives.
If your words of kindness reach people who are anxious and desperate,
Positivity will dawn in their minds.
That's a big deal.
There are so many things you can do using your facilities and faculties.
Encourage people to do that.
Even if each person plants a tree,
7.
5 billion trees in the world,
We can plant many more trees in every location,
Every place as possible,
Especially for us.
Because forests are really,
Really important for vegetation,
For various types of beings,
Various species in our neighborhood forests,
Neighborhood gardens,
We plant fruit trees,
Which grows naturally in those areas.
If we do that,
That will bring positivity.
Positivity is our attitude.
In every dark situations,
We can still be positive.
It's an attitude.
We can think positive,
Talk positive,
And act positive,
Even in dark situations,
Desperate situations.
And now is the time to share and care properly.
Some people are really affected in some corners of earth because distribution is affected and production is affected.
So it's up to us to share,
At least help each other to survive this situation,
Maybe with food,
Maybe with medical supplies,
Depending on what the neighborhood needs.
Joining hands,
Being one,
And literally cutting across caste,
Creed,
Country,
Culture,
Color,
Language,
Religion,
And looking at humanity.
This is the time to develop humanity.
The pandemic situation is diversifying with mutations.
This is the time when we should understand it's not our religion,
Not our caste,
Not our color.
It's humanity.
Humanity should be the main thing that we discussed today.
What else we can do for this world?
If we consistently and continuously start doing that,
Huge positivity will rise.
Don't worry about the number of people who died because all the newspapers and the media talks about people who died.
But look at the people who recovered from this much more than the people who died.
If thousand people died,
A hundred thousand people have recovered.
Focus on the recovery that itself will increase your positivity.
When positivity is increased,
It helps immunity.
Every situation can be transformed into something positive.
Do not say,
Oh,
That's not really possible.
It is possible.
World is just like a mirror.
It just reflects back what we are.
So let us be positive.
Let us do our best in our neighborhood and make a big difference in the world.
Lots of love.
This is Mohenji for you.
