Today's
Meditation:
In
other words, the world stands or falls with us, and with
what we do. In our conscience is the answer to all of
life's questions, the "why are we here?" and the
"what's the meaning of life?" type
questions. We've been trained to think that those
things that affect the entire world are those things that
truly matter, but reality couldn't be farther from the
truth.
The
world is truly affected by our day-to-day actions, those
things that we do on a human-to-human level. The true
goal of our growth is neither economic nor political; we are
here neither to gain power nor to gain riches. We are
here to develop spiritually and to help others to do the
same.
The
desire for powers and riches comes when people are afraid of
their spirituality, when they are taught that success
depends on power or material goods. They feel that if
they let go of their power or their riches that they somehow
will fail, and that's rather sad. In holding on to
this perspective, they are keeping up a very real wall
between their true selves and their conscious selves, and
they are avoiding the very things that can bring them true
happiness in life.
The
laws of life are written in your conscience. Pay
attention, trust yourself and live those laws, and you'll
find that life is an incredibly beautiful experience that
keeps you richer than any materially wealthy person ever has
been.
