The human being is endowed with authority, intelligence, and love. Philosophers surmise that we are all masters of our own thoughts. We hold the key to every situation. We also possess within us a transforming and revitalising dimension. This is one of nature’s greatest characteristics — it makes us what we are and also what we ‘will.’ The ‘will’ to do things the way you want, or believe, is appropriate, in a given situation.
The power we possess to do things, even in our illness, or neglected states, is a god-given gift. Yet, not all of us rise above our weak spots — we sometimes mess up with ourselves and our strengths too. It’s only when we begin to reflect upon our condition and search meaningfully for the natural laws upon which our being is established, we climb up the ladder of conscious awareness and become wise folks. In so doing, we reach a higher plane and use our inner energies with improved acumen and expanded resolve. It’s all within us — it’s just a question of seeking the conscious ‘aristocrat’ residing in us by way of application, self-analysis, and also experience.
Nature’s Gardeners
Our mind is a garden. Everything depends on how well you nurture it. You and I are, therefore, in a manner born, nature’s gardeners cultivating our mind’s land, keeping it free from nasty ‘germs,’ and growing flowers, or fruits, in its fertile soil. It is, of course, not easy to farm your ‘mindful meadow’ — or, clear the debris of wrong, or impure, thoughts, while cultivating good, useful, and pure thoughts. It is only when you pursue your quest to be nature’s best ‘mind gardener,’ would you be able to become the master-gardener of your soul, the smart executive of your life. You’ll now slowly begin to appreciate and live in the action of your thoughts and understanding — shaping your personality, circumstances, and destiny, with better effect.
