To be Content with what we have, is the greatest of virtue a human can possess, says The Master. But if we just look through our life, we will find
We were never satisfied with what we had, we always wanted more. Be it a toy, game, food, dress or jewellery. Our eyes were always on what our brothers and sisters got, and we wanted them too. A tendency we developed in childhood slowly has become our nature today. Unknowingly, we seek for others possession. Slowly and steadily it increases in such a way that we become desperate. We are restless till we lay hand on it.
It is not just the wealth or worldly possessions that we desperately seek, but we also want to wield power. The craving for power starts from home and spreads to known, neighborhood, society and so on.
Ravana is a great example. He was in possession of knowledge and worldly power, but his greed or craving for Sita, became the cause for his downfall.
The Master's say, create the environment from the time of birth to be Content with whatever we have been bestowed. The Lord knows our requirement, and being our True Father, and ensures we have everything that we need.
It is our craving and greed for more that leads us away from contentment. Our cravings are due to perception created by the mind. We are now, not a free spirited soul, but Minds' slave.
The Master's say, to control the cravings and greed we need to have a proper environment. This environment can be created through The Meditation as prescribed The Master.
The Master initiates us into the Spiritual path. He gives us a Word, which has His power in Him. As we keep doing Meditation, the wandering nature of the mind ceases, and practices to remain stable and silent, by The Grace of The Master.
Let us keep Meditation in our daily routine, this will enable us to remain in a pious environment.
