Journaling – Develop a Relationship with The Inner World

Journaling – Develop a Relationship with The Inner World

With my upbringing years, I was taught that there is a power in spoken words. And there are even more powers in written words. Spoken words helps in manifesting while written words heals, renovates & transforms us.  Journaling, a practice of writing thoughts in words, is an amazing tool that helps us heal & rebuild ourselves & grow spiritually.

It’s called journaling. It’s simply writing down our thoughts and feelings to understand them more clearly. It helps us understanding ourselves, our emotions, our situations, our reactions, our responses & our prospective to life.  It’s a way to learn about ourself and develop a relationship with our inner world.

We experience life in different terms. Like seasons, sometimes our life is burdened with responsibilities & deliverables, sometimes it is just a boring game like that of autumn. Sometimes full of love & laughter like that of spring & sometimes overwhelmed with pouring rain….

When we put the thoughts that are created in our mind because of these life experiences, it enhances our self-awareness.

And if you struggle with stress, depression, or anxiety, keeping a journal can be a great idea. It can help you gain control of your emotions and improve your mental health.

This is something which can really help a person understand someone. Now you’ll ask but why journaling like why do this instead of something else?

Well, you see when you are overwhelmed or really stressed, you need a way to express yourself. Even when you are happy and on cloud nine, you need a way to express yourself. Now when happy, you can do actions that can express your happiness like, eating ice-cream or doing something that you love. But when you are in a stressful situation it is better to write than to do something that you will regret later. Journaling them is therapeutic.

Also, when you will write about our problems, it helps us understand them from a third person’s point of view which can actually let us arrive on a solution a little bit early.

Many a time I feel that there exists a buffer between me & my world making me unsure & equivocal. And journaling helps me get the clarity. It’s a fast & direct download.  It’s like I have an agency where I can express everything & get the clarity I need. It’s a self-supporting system.

Putting our thoughts, imaginations, uncertainties, insecurities or dreams in a black & white to the page is an act of alchemy. It not only helps us heal our wounds, get over our traumas, release our stuffed emotions, it helps us understand ourselves better.

In your journals,

  • Write your fears, concerns, observations.
  • Acknowledge your blessings.
  • Accept your mistakes & reactions
  • Write your dreams & aspirations.
  • Set your spiritual goals
  • write quotes that inspires you.
  • Review once in a while

…and you will be a altogether a different person. Journaling helps us to become a our better selves.

Illusion – Can Life be One?

Illusion – Can Life be One? I wandered about this question many a times, in fact too often, at my time of reflection.

Now life has two different views. Or life is viewed in two different ways. First from a scientific point of view; Life is a quality that distinguishes matter that has biological processes, such as signaling and self-sustaining processes, from the matter that does not.  And this is defined by the capacity for growth, reaction to stimuli, metabolism, energy transformation, and reproduction.

But you know what, let’s focus on the spiritual essence that it carries.

Knowing that our lives have significance in a context beyond an everyday existence at the level of biological needs that drives selfishness and aggression and that we are a significant part of a purposeful unfolding of Life in our universe is something that is not easy to digest, yet nice to know.

Now, there are ways of living that one can only imagine and ways that one cannot even imagine, both in a good and a bad way. But what if all these ways were actually just a sham and life itself is something else.

We have sort of created an illusion for us where we have put standards on what life should be like and shouldn’t be like. In the bigger picture isn’t being happy and content the most important aspect. People like to think that in order to reach this stage of happiness and content, they need to have certain, well what can we say… ‘things’ in life which can help them reach this level.

Is it so? Isn’t it true that the more things we add the more insecure we become?

We live in a “thought-world” rather than the world as it is. We interpret life through our thoughts. And we generate thoughts from the conditioning of the circumstances that we live through. We perceive things as per our senses, eyes, ear, nose etc. We process them in our mind & then prepare a concoction which feed on…in life.

Aren’t our sense organs are limited in their capacities. For instance, can our eyes see beyond a particular spectrum of light & nose can smell like that of a dog?

Then isn’t what we perceive as life is a life of limitations? Isn’t it all illusion? And we keep on living & living, running after more & more…to become happy & content because that’s the ultimate goal.

Finally, one day…the curtain is raised. Life unmasks. Everything was illusion, everything was Maya. We feel entrapped & entangled.

The soul is a victim of this compulsive illusion. We identify our soul with our body & our material possessions. In the process we become miserable humans.

And that ultimate day, when the universe cracks the truth, it becomes a sudden upheaval but slowly we understand, that we don’t need any standards to put on us. We just need to raise our standard of perceiving life in its true sense….

Rainbow – Listen for The Morning Rooster

Rainbow – Listen for The Morning Rooster – there is the end of the storm, things are going to take a positive turn.

Rainbow – an arc of spectacular display of seven colors is an incredible natural phenomenon. The visual itself fills the heart with positive vibes.

From science we know that when sunlight (read “white light”) refracts through the water particles, a beautiful arc of seven colors spreads which is called rainbow. It’s nothing but sun shining through the mist of tiny water droplets.

Spiritually, rainbow is a symbol of connection between heaven & earth. It represents the perfect alignment of seven colors of seven chakras of human body (read “the earth”).

Whenever a rainbow catches my attention no matter where, online or in physical world, it makes me feel that something amazing is coming up.  As I believe in the fact that everything is a miracle & nothing happens without a reason, so rainbow also speaks about the things in our life situations.

Depending upon our situations, when the rainbow appears, they the below insights.

  • The end of the storm is already announced. Things will take a positive turn
  • There are happy moments & celebrations in the card.
  • Sometimes, the rainbow just wants to say, “your energies are scattered, the chakras of the body are mis-aligned. Meditate or connect to the nature & ground yourself”.
  • The angels are watching over you – whenever we are stuck in life challenges, feel miserable, helpless & lonely, our Guardian Angels want to comfort us. And since they are invisible to human, they use recognizable signs or symbols to let you know that you are surrounded & protected by them. Rainbow is one such symbol.
  • Rainbow is an affirmation that all is well and that you are in right relationship with the divine.
  • It is also meant that that there is a divine intervention happened or will happen
  • Rainbow also affirms that things will turn in your favour, especially when you are having a genuine conflict in the workplace. However, wait for the divine timing & don’t let your guard down
  • In a relationship, they mean that there is blessing from heaven. It’s going to be filled with love & romance.
  • Rainbow is the omen of hope, good luck, abundance & property.
  • Sometimes, it just meant that Surrender to the divine. Trust, the universe is going to take care of you.

The sight of a rainbow itself means that we are on the right track. Our wishes are going to come true. Angels are working hard for us behind the scenes to get us the things that we are busy in manifesting.

Next time, whenever a rainbow draws your attention, be happy that its time to listen to the morning rooster, dawn is just some moments away. Sometimes they just meant, miracles on your way…
