About couple of weeks ago one of my cousins called me at about 11pm and told me that he has been experiencing something and when he spoke to some people everyone said different things. He was bit confused as to what was happening to him and why he was feeling the way that he was feeling. He was excited and at the same time he was worried if he was making up things and if his mind was playing tricks on him etc. When I spoke to him, I understood that he started to live in the NOW. Well, what is NOW? When I say NOW, it is already gone. He said he is in a blissful state where nothing really bothers him much nowadays.
We have done a healing on him couple of years ago, after that he was living in a place where he had no fear, no guilt, no anger no negative thought forms. He was in a space, where he was experiencing stillness. Lots of people do lots of meditations and self development courses/ works on them to feel that, even if lots of people feel that they just feel it for a second or so and then it is gone.
For example: If you had a child, when you first saw your first child…. That moment, or if you were/ are in love the moment where there’s no other world exists in that space, my cousin was able to experience it after a healing session.That particular second in an expanded amount of hours.
So, what are the reasons that you feel peaceful and the stillness when you see your first child or when you fall in love and you are in a space where nothing else exist. Well, we don’t look at the child and say ohh… if the child’s nose was only smaller… or if the child was only cuter or something similar. What we experience is we just look at the child and just get absorbed in that particular moment. The whole world becomes still and we find the peace. If we want to find the peace, I believe first we have to learn to live in the NOW. Lots of people find it hard to live in the now, because they still live in the past (holding onto their past events and what happened to them) and/or future.
There are different ways you can live in the now. You can sit down and meditate and just absorb what is happening around you in the now without thinking about the past or future. You can create that peaceful state by forgiving people and letting go and that allows you to stay in the now as well. There are other ways as well.
I have an exercise for you I call it “Oneness Exercise”. It creates a personal sense of peace and you can practice this regularly to create this energy around you.
This can be done anywhere. It can be in a shopping centre, a movie theatre, a park, market or anywhere (Do all these steps with one person at a time) When you do this exercise, having that person’s face in your minds-eye is very important.
1. Look at a person (pick a person) – you don’t have to touch the person or anything just imagine that stranger and mentally say “ Just like me, this person is seeking some happiness in his/her life”
2. Look at a person and mentally say “Just like me, this person wants to avoid suffering”
3. Look at the person and mentally say “Just like me, this person has known sadness and despair”
4. Look at the person and mentally say “Just like me, this person is seeking to fulfill his/her needs”
5. Look at the person and mentally say “Just like me, this person is learning about life”
You can do this exercise as many times as you like in a day. You can also do this with your family members, friends, and associates as well.
After you do this, sit quietly for a minute and observe yourself.
