Changes mean opportunities.


I presume you have read my previous post titled, “Change is possible…”. Now, ask yourself, are you resisting changes in your life? How do you react to a change in your life that is about to take place?

Are you afraid of it or do you welcome it?

If you are not willing to cooperate with a change in life situations, do you know that you may miss out something exciting and refreshing? People who don’t allow themselves the luxury of changes stay where they are. They are literally stunting their own growth.

Yes, change means growth and growth is always for the better-right? Experiences hitherto unknown is certainly rewarding and make you mature. If you don’t embrace changes, it will be an unfulfilled life.

Life will be dull without changes. Imagine your own life where you spend at the bottom of your career while witnessing stupendous growth among your friends, relatives and colleagues.

Remember, changes bring opportunities to explore new vistas, experience blissful relationship and so on.

Your body changes (grows) without your consent. On the other hand, your mental growth purely depends on your volition.

I like this inspiring quote by Milton Berlinger, the American comedy actor:
"If opportunity doesn't knock, build a door."

Change is Possible-have faith.


The miseries and maladies that we are forced to experience longer than necessary stem from one single fact which we refuse to believe that change is possible. When something bad happens to us, we expect or believe it will last for ever. We resist them.

Remember, when you resist something, you prolong the experience.


All (seemingly) good or bad things happen in our life to teach a lesson. Once you have learnt it, you are ready for a new experience which is again (seemingly) good or bad. This just proves that nothing is constant which alone is a constant.

Changes occur and will always. Trust in this fundamental law of universe and you will lead a blissful life.

Godly qualities:
Godly or divine qualities such as patience, forgiveness, compassion, wisdom, and gratitude don't embrace us in a minute or over night. We are given myriad experiences from which we are expected to gain these qualities.

That is the beauty of human life.

No, they were not poor.

Probably, the world's most ill-conceived notion is Spirituality means frugal living. Some would vehemently attach poverty to spirituality. Their thoughts invariably influenced by the depiction of life of sages.

I would say, those enlightened sadhus did not any luxuries of life. They were all eternally in absolute bliss that can't be matched even by the most extravagantly living man in the world.

There is this confirmed misconception that those whose life is in the transition stage-from materialistic to spiritualistic, always face financial shortage.

Well, they can enjoy the highest pleasures without having to spend a dime. They just could create anything out of thin air but only they never felt the need.

I firmly believe that the so called spiritual powers were gifted to them from the universe. They mostly would not have spent a fortune to get these healing powers like medical practitioners. So, it is quite possible that they believed in giving things away freely that were given to them freely.
