Today we shall talk about the word Harmony.
Harmony within oneself is very important. Before you can have harmony at home, before you can have harmony in your workplace, before you can have harmony with creation, you must have harmony within yourself. It is impossible for you to have harmony with someone else if you don’t have harmony within yourself.
To be in harmony within yourself there are three levels. One is the physical level. The second is the mental level and the third is emotional level. Harmony at the physical level is where you accept who you are, how you look, the family you are born into, your physical looks be it good or bad. For that is who you are. If you cannot accept this then there is no harmony. There is mental turbulence, “I am not good looking” “I better go for Botox jab, I better go for this, I better go for that. Plastic Surgeons these days are making lots of money due to this. Harmony at the physical level is you have to accept the job that you have. If you do not like the job that you have, learn to like it or leave. Do not create disharmony in your workplace.
Harmony at the mental level is important. Disharmony at the mental level is where you have too much desire. There is turbulence. There is always planning and scheming, the mind is always in turbulence.
Harmony at the emotional level is the baggage you carry. Emotional baggage. Your jealousy, your envy, your likes and dislikes are always on the emotional level.
Now harmony is a very interesting word. If you do not have harmony what happens is you will “Harm-Only”. English language is very interesting. Harm-ony, if you don’t have harmony, you will harm only. If you do not have harmony you will always harm people. Your entire mindset is to create disharmony everywhere you go and with people you meet. That’s why I say the English language is fantastic. You can separate the word and make it to something else. So the next time you do not have harmony you can think about it. I will “harm only”.
Now there is a lot of people who say that other people cause me to be unhappy. If you are unhappy, it means there is no harmony within yourself. No one can cause you to be unhappy. No one can cause you to have disharmony within yourself.
Now take a scenario, you feel this resentment or you don’t like someone, you just can’t stand to be in the same room as this person. How does it happen? Your eyes are nothing more than avenues for you to see. It does not know what it sees. So don’t blame your eyes for making you unhappy. Your eyes can only see. It sees that person and sends a signal to your brains. Your brain recognises this person. It sends a signal to your emotion, the baggage you carry. See how it works? Depends on which baggage you open up. If you open up the bad baggage, then all the bad emotion will come up and surfaces in your brain and you say “I don’t like this person.” If you open up the good baggage that you carry, all the good things will surface through your emotion, goes to your brains and you see the good in that person. The person could be standing there, he has nothing to do with you. He just stands there and you say “I don’t like this person, I can’t stand being in the same room with this person.” We all go through this. Maybe some of us are going through it now. Maybe some of us have gone through it and still have not overcome it.
Something to think about!
