Thanks Pooch and Murphy. Excellent sweet and short insights 🙂

Hi Little Buddha

I had to read your other posts to understand where you are coming from. I am sorry that you find yourself in this state. Have you sought medical attention as yet ? Sometimes, our bodies need that extra little support to raise us above the line.

You are in the habit of regretting every decision you make, yeah ? Hey, have you wondered why you do that ? Where is the root of this issue ?

Once, you realise that you are 100 % responsible for all that happens in your life (good or bad), perhaps you wont feel so guilty. What you need is the courage to accept the outcomes or consequences of your decisions. What is the worst that can happen with wrong decisions ? If you ask me, nothing major. It is not like any of your decisions are going to cause life harm to anyone unless you are doing it intentionally !!!

All our decisions (good or bad) lead to outcomes. Some outcomes are favourable and some not so favourable. Favourable results give us immense joy and peace, while not so favourable ones lead to grief, guilt and fear of failure in the future. But hey, have you ever tried to look for the silver lining for the unfavourable outcomes ? Nothing happens for no reason in this world. Look around in the nature for proof.

Every incident, relationship, event etc can teach us something valuable if we allow it to…..and then this new learning helps us move forward in life and expand even further. There is no stopping or graduation days in life school. Those people who refuse to learn the lessons get stuck in the rut of guilt, grief, denial, unhappiness, lack of clarity etc and the cycle continues day in and day out.

There are only very few things, which are actually in OUR control: our reactions, feelings, emotions and actions. Rest is all out of bounds for everyone’s well-being. Other people’s reactions, actions, emotions or what happens in their lives because of us or themselves is NOT our issue at a basic level. We cant take ownership for anyone else on this planet even if we wanted to. Life doesn’t work this way. We come alone and we go alone. Your decisions are yours to make and my decisions are mine to make. Your results are yours to bear and mine are mine to bear. We cant share or dissipate as we please 🙁

The major reason for all negativity in life is due to lack of awareness. Most of us are not aware of our own power. We have been conditioned to chase and chase and chase but no one knows what we are chasing. If you sit down quietly, you will hear your inner voice tell you what Little Buddha seeks. Once you tap into that inner voice, you will be on the right path and negativity will not cause destruction in life.

We all need negative emotions to keep us on our toes so that we are learning and moving forward. It is all about a balance – yin and yang, male and female; sun and moon, dark and light etc. Don’t be afraid of these emotions. Learn to deal with them head on. Only saints or those with very high consciousness can just sit and let these emotions pass through. For the rest of us, we need to take personal responsibility and learn the lesson and march ahead. The more we are able to do this, the more confident we become in our innate abilities. We don’t need to then depend on others for our sanity 🙂

These things work for me when I am feeling low:
– music – soul soothing music, loud music, dance music etc. Don’t listen to sad music please as it only worsens the current state of mind

– charity – making a meal for a homeless, orphaned kid, buying a cuppa for a lonely elderly in the mall etc. You cant imagine how much positive vibes are sent your way when you bring a smile on someone else’s face. If everyone’s basic needs could be fulfilled on this earth, we would have an illuminated planet.

– being close to nature – walks in the park, playing with pets, sitting around a lake or an ocean watching a sunrise or set etc; we get a lot of positive energy from sun so even sitting out for 10 mins a day, you will feel the difference in your outlook.

– meditation : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b05pGueHux8

The above meditation will balance out your chakra if you believe in energy. Try it for 10 mins a day for a few days and see the difference. Love will flow easily through you for self and others.

– praying for other’s well being – again, I cant tell you how much blessings you get in return when you are able to offer prayers for loved ones or other earthlings. I am not sure what you think about this concept as a bloke but try it before you buy it.

Two principles which help me stay sane and keep moving forward and it has been good so far:

1. We are 100 % responsible for whatever happens in our lives and if we do not like the life film being played in front of us then have the courage to change the inner film (ie, inner state of my mind).

2. We get what we give out. Give more love and receive more love. Give more negativity and receive more, lol

Sending you loads of positive energy and hope this post will bring a smile on your face 🙂

Thanks Little Buddha.

You are trying to alienate yourself subconsciously because you are running low on energy. Your higher self is trying to protect you and guide you ahead on how you can find your inner balance again.

Take a mobile phone as an example: we use it until the battery drains and then what happens ? We cant use it until we charge the battery, right ? Similarly, humans need charging. When our energy runs low, we do not want to be around anything that drains us further so we get into a mode of running away from everything in search for that peace or that inner bliss.

How does our battery drain ? By everything around us. At a basic level, we are atomic particles vibrating at various frequencies. Vibration creates energy so we are all energy at the end of the day. Energy flows from high to low. When we are surrounded by a certain energy, which is higher than ours, the flow starts to occur until an equilibrium reaches. You are probably surrounded with loads of negativity.

Energy can be depleted by anything and everything on this planet – from information to people to food etc. It is important for us to replenish our energy from time to time so we don’t reach a lowish state of havoc.

How do we increase our energy on a consistent basis ? By eating more fresh fruits and vegetables, we increase our energy. By exercising, we increase our energy. By praying or meditating, we increase our energy. By sharing and caring, we increase our energy. By smiling and accepting everything as is, we increase our energy. By going with the life’s flow, we increase our energy.

What brings our energy down ? By engaging in gossip; by putting someone down; by engaging with people who are vibrating at negative frequency; by competing with others to bring them down so that we can feel superior; by reading or listening to negative information; by putting dead food into the body; by not exercising the body; by being ungrateful; by going against the flow; by letting our mind create a havoc etc. You get the message, yeah ?

What are some super and quick ways of increasing energy: the ones that I had discussed in my previous posts.

What is your lesson ? I think it is to accept yourself for who you are with all your flaws and strengths. I feel you are running away from Little Buddha. Hey, why do that ? You have not done anything wrong. Even if you have, there is nothing in this world that cant be forgiven 🙂 Take a moment each day to forgive yourself and everyone else who has caused you grief. I promise that within a few days your positivity quotient will double then triple and finally become infinite !!!

You will hear the inner voice. Have patience. We all have it. Once you raise your positivity quotient, it will come roaring at you hahahahahaha.

Best wishes,

Jasmine
