Watch Your Attitude

To most of us the hardships, adversities and challenges of life seem to be intractable like gigantic mountains, dreadful like wild giants, and frightening like impenetrable darkness. But this is all subject to how we take them. In reality nothing is so hard or to tackle; It is mostly our delusion that regards it so and suffers the pains and fears.
Just change your attitude and you will find hope, courage and enthusiasm in all circumstances. Don't lose your morale that you failed in your repeated attempts. Don't worry. There are many other avenues. Look at them. There is no deed-end to trying harder again with better preparation. Move ahead. You just have to try your level best in transacting your duties. Every sincere effort is a step towards the goal; if not today, tomorrow you will succeed. This is the law of Nature. There is always certain consequence, some result of every action. Don't feel helpless. Don't count upon other's support. No one really would have the capacity to help you if you can't help yourself. Never blame anyone for anything wrong or harmful happening to you. Because no one can rule over you and make you suffer. You alone are the friend and the enemy of yourself. The circumstances around you are in fact your own creation. They are neither supportive nor obstructive in reality; this all depends upon your own attitude, how you accept and make use of them.
Refine your attitude, your thinking and your aspirations and let virtuous instincts awaken in yourself. It is the accumulation on the inscriptions of positive thinking and good actions over several lives that awaken devotion in the human self.

In the Shrine of the Heart
Whenever you feel woeful, distressed or helpless in tragic circumstances or adversities around, whenever you feel demoralized by failures, whenever you see despair and darkness all around and are anxious about your future, whenever you are trapped in a dilemma and unable to think discreetly - don't astray anymore in negativity. Remember, when a fox is surrounded by wild dogs and sees no rescue, it runs swiftly back in to its den and feels relaxed and safe.
You should also throw away all thoughts and worries of your mind instantly and take shelter in the depths of your heart (the inner core of emotions, the inner self). Take a deep breath and just forget about everything; think as though nothing, not even your existence is there. As you would have out these things at its doorsteps and enter deeper into the 'shrine' of your heart, you would that all the burden, all the worries and sufferings that were troubling you have evaporated. You have become light and floating like a thin piece of cotton. The calmness of your heart will sooth you like a moonlight shadow or a snow chamber to someone dying of heat in the sun of summer.
The purity of inner self is an edifice of peace and spiritual light. It is the source of ultimate realization and is therefore likened with "Brahmloka". God has graciously endowed us with this paradise to experience diving bliss. But we remain unaware of it and astray externally because of our ignorance.
