STORY:
Gratitude: Turn Everything To Gold

A story on gratitude:

“There are two branches of Gratitude. One is Gratefulness, and the other is Thanksgiving.

The Gratefulness branch is when the Bowl of Life is so full that it’s almost overflowing, but not quite. So full that it’s almost bowed at the top, but not quite dribbling over the edges. And, that is the experience of the Great Fullness of Life.

And when you’re in the Great Fullness of Life, you’re one with God, you’re one with the Universe, there is no “other”. And that is so Full Filling, that the Bowl of Life gives way and to overflow at last, which flows you directly over to the second branch, that of Thanksgiving.

When you’re in the space of Thanksgiving, the Bowl of Life is absolutely overflowing. You’re so grateful that there is an “other” because all you want to do is contribute and serve and share and give and make a difference. And that is so Full Filling, that it puts you right back onto the other branch where you experience the Great Fullness of Life, where you’re one with God and there is no “other”.

And, so you see, you can live your whole life in the two branches of Gratitude…”

The fastest way to turn your life around is with gratitude, and this wonderful story exemplifies that so well. Gratitude catapults us into happiness because gratitude is our true nature, and so is happiness. Gratitude and happiness are one and the same, not two distinct concepts. You will be happy when you are grateful, and when you are happy, you are naturally grateful. At the end of the day, all of us want is to be happy, and being grateful is the simplest, quickest way to do that. Remain grateful, and you will live your whole life in happiness.

Put it to the test. Write down ten things for which you are grateful right now.

"I am thankful for... because.. "

And take note of the difference in how you feel after completing this exercise.

It only takes a few minutes to write a gratitude list, but afterward your day will end up being vastly different from what it would have been.

By being grateful, you can enhance your happiness, financial security, mental health, and relationships. In fact, when gratitude is used, every situation is given more vitality, which leads to a change for the better. When you are grateful, you have the Golden touch, which transforms everything you come in contact with into gold. You can use it to combat every adverse event that shows up in your life since it is your secret power, quick life-changer, and weapon. Is it too wonderful to be true? Too easy to use to be efficient? Does it seem too simple to alter your entire life? These are the reasons why so few people are aware of the power they already possess.

About: Maybe you already manifest regularly or you’ve heard of it, but never tried it. Manifesting means using the power of your thoughts, feelings or beliefs to bring something into your physical reality.

At first, it sounds abstract, but science has proven, everything is made of energy: objects, animals, thoughts, and humans.

There are laws that control how this energy flows and where it goes just as there are laws of gravity and laws of growth. The more you know about these laws the easier it is to navigate the energy you need in the right direction.

No wonder that even stars like Will Smith, Jim Carrey, Oprah Winfrey, and Lady Gaga swear by manifestation as the secret to their success.

Jim Carrey makes it sound really simple. He says: “As far as I can tell, it’s just about letting the universe know what you want and then working towards it while letting go of how it comes to pass.”

Yet, there are reasons why some people are better at manifesting than others.

There are a couple of fundamentals you need to understand in order to apply manifestation effectively. With a little guidance and the right techniques, your best life is waiting for you.

TODAY'S POSITIVE NEWS

By using "swift bricks" in brand-new structures around Britain, real estate construction firms in the UK are giving little birds free tenements.

More than 10,000 homes have been constructed using quick bricks, which are simply regular building bricks with a hollow within. Over 30,000 swift bricks have been marketed in the nation.

The effects that humans can have on animal life are unpredictable. It wasn’t the sprawling British civilization that caused a 58% decline in the small migratory birds called swifts, but rather the renovation of old buildings.

ZEN STORY
THE BEST THINGS IN LIFE CANNOT BE STOLEN

Ryokan, a Zen master, lived the simplest kind of life in a little hut at the foot of a mountain. One evening a thief visited the hut only to discover there was nothing in it to steal.

Ryokan returned and caught him. “You may have come a long way to visit me,” he told the prowler, “and you shoud not return emptyhanded. Please take my clothes as a gift.”

The thief was bewildered. He took the clothes and slunk away.

Ryokan sat naked, watching the moon. “Poor fellow,” he mused, “I wish I could give him this beautiful moon.”

Dove Pose (Vajra Kapotasana)

What is Dove Pose?

Dove pose, or vajra kapotasana in Sanskrit, is a deep and challenging backbend that tones the spine and expands the chest. From reclining hero pose, the practitioner places their palms near their head and straightens their arms, lifting their thighs and torso from the ground in a deep arch.

Instructions

  • Begin in reclining hero pose.

  • Inhale and reach the arms overhead, place the palms in line with the ears and fingers pointing toward the shoulders.

  • With an exhale, straighten the arms to lift the thighs, torso and head from the floor.

  • On the next exhale, lower the forearms to the floor and hold the toes. Rest the top of the head on the floor.

  • Breathe shallowly while holding the pose.
