We see the world as a reflection of our mind

The saying, "We see the world as a reflection of our mind" is very true. It is based on our experiences in the past,
 ability to assimilate in our memory, our interests basically creates the a world within our mind.  
We correlate that with the real world and think that this world is sh*t. Actually it is our corrupt minds that is full of sh*t.

Actually the world is marvellous but how see with our mind matters. What we see ourselves as and how  we deal with the things and 
people around us also matters most. We are all living in different worlds altogether(even though it appears that we are in the same external world
) because each of us have different Karma, different consciousness, different experiences.


All the dirt we see outside is actually manifested from inside of our mind. We got this present body based on the thoughts of our own 
mind. "Whatever state of being one remains when one quits the body, that state of being, one will attain without fail", Bhagavad Gita

I have a long way to go!!!


It's a long way to learn myself and the lessons that are waiting on the way towards the horizon. But the Lord follows the wanderings of all the beings and guides them from within.
Some of the places in my journey are uphill which are tough to get over while after climbing high upon there's some stored energy and it might feel like effortless when getting downhill due to the efforts I had put during the uphill. But definitely it is not the bliss but just the stored energy releasing which is a mere comfort zone and not the real bliss that gives pleasure to my heart.

The ones I met on the path, some are illuminating and purifying my consciousness while the others who are grossly foolish are those I scared and stayed away from. Yet my own friend, my mind who is always manipulating the senses and sense objects is also something I scared of due to its flickering nature. This friend always try to sell me for some cheap price which is worthless and miserable. This friend has a lot in store from the past but he brings all things that stinks and put me in difficult situation.

It appears that only the sun that is same wherever I go. Even my body and my mind, the relatives, friends keep changing but the sun is same and I am seeing the same sun wherever I go. He the lord of my heart is the sun who illuminates my store which is full of darkness. He is the one who always cares wherever I am and gives me what I deserve and sometimes even more than what I deserve by His mercy.

Hope someday this name Dina esh "Lord of the day" becomes relevant to the work I do so that illuminate myself and the people I come in contact with.
