Harmonizing in the Jungle: Spiritual Work skills


Inline image 1
Spiritually speaking, a work place is like entering in a jungle.
In the jungle there are many different animals. Those animals have different hierarchies, needs, understanding and "corporate culture."
A person understanding spiritual laws, will look at that scenario from the "big picture" in order to be harmonious. Harmony is the most important "skill" that someone could bring.
Your experience in a particular skill is good. You can type plenty of words per minute; that is great… but those skills are not enough to live in harmony.
There you have the monkey: Joking around, doing lip service whenever there is a chance. You have the Giraffe, extending its long neck to find out the whereabouts of everyone. There you have the tigress, expressing her raw power through bossiness.
You have the lion; who supposedly is the King of the jungle, but in the "corporate reality" may be just a figurehead. The Elephant may do the work of telling everyone what to do. His sheer size could scare other employees even though; his title is of an "assistant of the Lion."
Every jungle has its own animals. We need to recognize that environment beyond the work titles and "official" ways.
For example, you may want to help a wounded deer, not realizing that a Cheetah may have done "work." That deer was going to be the Cheetah's meal! If you try to be "helpful," you may gain an adversary. We shouldn't assume things but always look for firm territory to step on; otherwise, if we are not careful, we may step on a snake or we may step on quick sand! :-(
Email is a good way to land in firm territory whenever there is a dispute. Evidence is always good to have.
All animals in the jungle make different noises. Our own noise should harmonize as much as possible.
Every jungle has a game to play, get to know it and play it well. :-)
We need to learn to be small kittens so we could enjoy a good atmosphere around us. We need to be "big tigers" as well, by being intelligent, clever and by saving our energy as much as possible. Act only when necessary. Wait and watch the game.
Blend in, be part of it, play the game, enjoy it and at the same time… be yourself! :-)

«*» RUKHSANA«*» It's Time: No Complaints

A One Group

No Complaints
Have you ever heard of the expression, 'the squeaky wheel gets oiled?'  'Squeakers', or in other words, complainers, often get attended to because no one wants to listen to their constant whining.  They make the loudest noise and therefore achieve results, but at what cost?  Continuous whining or squeaking does not win friends.
Today's world is full of complainers.  Some are justifiably seeking the resolution of an injustice, some are genuinely trying to make things better, but some just like to complain!
At the heart of a complaint is a grievance of some kind or another.  Perhaps the shop sold us some faulty goods.  Perhaps a work colleague is trying to bully us.  These types of complaints will actually bear more fruit if we make them dispassionately, when the heat of the emotion has cooled down.  It is also prudent to direct the complaint at the right person, rather than broadcasting it for anyone who wants to hear.  This approach takes self-respect and a certain amount of detachment, but a cool head, rather than a heart filled with fury, is certainly the more effective approach.
Some people seem to make complaining a hobby.  The dissatisfaction in this case stems from within; when we don't feel good inside we project this into the outside world, and onto others.  If I am not happy with myself then I will never be happy with what's going on around me.  So check: am I a complainer?  If so, it is a good indication that I have some more inner work to do.  When I feel good from inside, then the 'reason' for most of my complaints may just magically disappear!  Then people will find me much more pleasant to be around.
It's no surprise that we are put off by complaints; on the surface they don't sound very constructive and when directed at us can make us feel annoyed, angry, resentful or hopeless.  We don't often receive them well.  We strive day and night to make our world picture perfect but don't always succeed, so when others complain about us, or the way we do things, we can feel resentful, inadequate or insecure.
Handling complaints from others is an art, and rather than trying to deflect them, or reject them, we may do better to reflect on them.  When someone is complaining it is usually because they feel that their vision of the end result is better than ours, or they feel the need to correct us because they feel we have strayed from our own vision.  In the heat of the moment when words are spoken passionately, the focus on the vision or the end result unfortunately gets lost.  We tend to project most of our energy in protecting ourselves, rather than trying to understand the real reason for it.  "Well, it's not my fault. I have done all that I can, what more can I do?"  We can often take it personally; we shrivel up inside, and wonder: "What's the point?"
We don't recognize that, if we could only step back from our emotional response for a moment, we could perhaps gain an understanding of what the complainer is really reflecting back to us.
Firstly, stay calm.  It may not be personal; it may just be someone channeling their inner frustration on the person closest to.  Secondly, treat the complainer with respect.  Sometimes a complaint is a plea from the heart, the complainer just wants to feel 'heard'.  Thirdly, is there any foundation to this complaint?  If I have the humility to admit that there is, then this is a good lesson for me, enabling me to address a weakness that I may not have seen in myself before.
It's time… to complain less and listen more.  Try to understand the others point of view as you would like them to understand yours.  Realize that the squeaks and groans are an opportunity in disguise, signaling you to compassion and self-respect, and helping you to proactively 'oil' the wheels of your own self-growth.

«*» RUKHSANA«*» Daily Positive Thoughts: September 13, 2013: Kindness

A One Group

Kindness

Great souls take advantage of every moment and every opportunity to give happiness to others through kindness in their thoughts; such souls are willing to overlook weaknesses and mistakes and have the desire to help everyone reach their potential.
 
 
 
Relationship
 
A relationship is like a tapestry. The fabric is strongest where the
threads that hold it together are spun of openness, love and trust.
 
                        
 
 
Absorbing Spiritual Light (cont.)

How many times do we hear phrases like - Oh, he is always in a bad mood... or It is my nature to be irritable... or He will never change..., etc. This shows the extent to which the soul's own light has faded and been replaced by the dark curtain of negativity. Therefore it is better that we do not try to deal with each vice and defect individually. As the soul fills itself with the power of spirituality, its overall condition automatically improves.

Another significant point is that there is a deep-rooted awareness within the soul of God and His sanskars, however much it may be covered by dirt and weakness. This is because each soul is the child of God and being his children we inherit his sanskars. These sanskars are present in us when we start playing our part in the physical world, but gradually they fade away as we take more and more births. As these sanskars are brought to the surface of the consciousness, automatically our thoughts and behavior patterns change.

In modern psychology it is stated that we must express all our negative emotions and note suppress them. But the fact is that letting it out leads the soul further into slavery to that emotion. Remembering that thoughts, decisions and actions are formed on the basis of sanskars, which are deepened by repetition, the soul can only cause harm by expressing any defect or vice. On the other hand, the psychological effect of suppressing negative emotions can be quite drastic. Suppression can lead to severe personality problems, even madness or insanity. The right path is that we emerge our positive sanskars with the help of meditation and other self-development techniques and the negative ones automatically vanish away.
 

Soul Sustenance

Understanding The Mechanism Of The Virtue Of Peace (Part 3)

To experience the eternal peace of the soul world, I do the simple exercise explained yesterday and then go a step further. Having created the thought about myself that I am a sparkling star-like energy at the centre of the forehead, just above the eyebrows, visualized it and as a result experienced it, now my objective is visualizing my star like form in the soul world. With this objective in mind, I now create a simple thought that I the star-like energy will make a short journey to the soul world and back. So I create simple thoughts and visualize alongside that I, the soul am leaving my physical body and flying outside. Then I, see my star like form, slowly fly past the ceiling of the room I am in and see myself suspended in the sky (night sky makes the visualization more easy). I see myself as a point of radiant light high above many many buildings and lights. This is similar to what one would see from an aeroplane window while landing or taking off. I then see my light form going higher, past the atmosphere and going past a sea of stars and a few planets and the moon. I then take this visualization further and see myself entering the soul world, a region of soft orange-red light (this is similar to how it looks like at dusk). This region is multidimensional and unlimited in size or expanse. I see my star-like form suspended in this region, radiating rays of peace in all directions. I also see other white/golden star-like souls just like me in the same region. I spend some time in this region, in this experience. In this region my thoughts stop completely and I am only visualizing.

This is the eternal peace experienced whilst visualizing the spiritual self in the soul world. The peace experienced in this exercise is greater than in the exercise mentioned yesterday. Thus the sanskara of peace created in the soul in this exercise is deeper. After a few minutes of this experience, I see myself descending in the physical body in exactly the same way as I flew to the soul world. This is just a visualization exercise or experience and the soul does not actually leave the body and go anywhere. The two practical exercises explained in yesterday's and today's message can be used to experience the two types of peace mentioned. At one time, you can choose to either experience both types or only the first one. You can start with a few minutes and increase the time gradually. Continuous practice will create stronger sanskaras of peace and take you closer to your original state of peace.

Message for the day

Even the most difficult task is made easy with the cooperation of all.

Projection: When given a responsibility we usually think of doing it alone. We usually feel it is much easier not to involve many. We do this in order to avoid the different kinds of personalities that we have to deal with.

Solution: When involved in a big task, we need to see to it that we involve many. When we involve many and make sure we make use of their specialities even the most difficult task will be made easy. Secondly, the good wishes of all involved will be for the task which will add to its success.
