Understanding Life’s Challenges
In everyone’s life, hardships, sorrows, and suffering are common. But why do they occur, and how can we overcome them? Let’s understand this through the wisdom of MahaaGURU.
The Root of Hardships
When you try to do something that isn’t meant for you, hardships begin. If you are struggling, it means you are in the wrong situation, place, or level, and are on the wrong path. Imagine there is a switch, and you put your finger on it thinking it’s fine, but you get shocked. A shock only happens when you place your finger where it shouldn’t be.
Wrong Methods Lead to Suffering
The sorrow, pain, fear, loss, hardship, poverty, misfortune, and negativity in your life arise when you follow wrong methods, hold false beliefs, engage in wrong actions, and make wrong efforts.
Bringing About Positive Change
To bring about change, think correctly, think anew, and sharpen your mind. Ask yourself if you can do better, speak better, think better, and be better. When you believe you can be better, be that way.
The Importance of Daily Introspection
Every night before going to bed, sit and reflect on what you did from morning to night. This introspection ensures you won’t make mistakes. You will be better today than you were yesterday. Take 24 minutes out of your 24 hours to reflect on how you spoke, thought, acted, and existed from morning to evening.
Questions to Ask Yourself
Ask yourself if you can be better, more excellent, more noble, more valuable, more respected, and more fruitful. When you believe you can be better, apply this the next day. Always strive to be the best and better.
Achieving Personal Growth
Reflect on whether you were more peaceful, satisfied, joyful, healthy, understanding, knowledgeable, and kind to others today than yesterday. If you practice this daily, you will become as precious as a pearl in three months. If you don’t compare today with yesterday, you’ll remain as you were the day before. You will become what you were before.
