Lighting My Soul (Diwali: Part 1)

Deepavali - Lighting a single diya of my own Spiritual Awareness!

✴A single diya or lamp holds infinite beauty and hope. Diwali is a celebration of victory over evil or darkness and the coming of a New Year. But what is the darkness we want to remove?

Let us not only celebrate Diwali for a day, but let life be a Diwali experience.

As we clean our homes, let's clean our minds of all the emotional blockages. Let us check the smallest corners and remove all the little stains of harsh words, bitterness, betrayal, and past hurts.

➤As we wear new clothes, let's also get rid of our old, unwanted, disturbing habits of anger, jealousy, and worry.... and emerge our new but original qualities of 𝙥𝙚𝙖𝙘𝙚, 𝙡𝙤𝙫𝙚, 𝙟𝙤𝙮, 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙠𝙣𝙤𝙬𝙡𝙚𝙙𝙜𝙚. Let’s also emerge our new way of thinking, responding to situations, and a new way of living.

➤As we settle our old account books and begin new ones, let us settle our old karmic accounts, any unpleasantness in relationships and begin our relationships in a new positive way. If there is anything we are still holding onto, let it go. Forgive and resolve conflicts. It’s time for settlement.
