Five Techniques for a Pisces Mind🔗

We are aware of the state of affairs around us and we know we can improve many problems. But, either because of laziness, fear of commitment or fear to take up responsibility, we just keep quiet, watch and criticize our surroundings. The underlying guilt we feel is a hangover of our irresponsibility. Taking steps to correct a situation by doing our best to improve it is the first step towards becoming a conscious individual. Whenever you criticize the world, you just add more negativity to it. What can you do to bring more awareness to it? How can you change what you dislike in it? Align your thoughts, words and deeds; then the real revolution will happen.

When you come closer to people, you have a wonderful chance to meet old, deep and unpleasant saṁskāras or behaviors. You can easily ignore them, and blame the other for not being as you expect. As you look into them, and let them fall, a different kind of love starts to shine... A new understanding. You start relating, beyond relationships. You move beyond bondage. You can relate with as many people as possible, but remain free and let them also be free. Don't leave any footprints in others' lives.

We constantly live with our past. We bring our past emotions to the present, and it is absolutely not necessary. Bringing the old to the new feels like adding flavor to life...No! It's just another addiction that diverts you from reality, that's all. Either you reproduce your past in the name of adding flavor to life, or you live with reality, flowing with alertness and clarity. Carrying your emotional luggage around is the most dangerous thing you can do to yourself! It can cripple you at crucial times where you need to break through. Let go of it! You need to be sharp to take decisions that will affect your future on work and social issues. Add an extra dose of awareness, and unclutch.

Don’t waste too much time fixing relationships which bring chaos into your mind. Work on keeping your inner space always pure, free from others’ problems. Let their resentment not disturb you in any way. Already, you have your own problems, so why add more to them by taking care of theirs! If this relationship constantly drains you, if it brings you down, then drop it! After all, what more can you lose? What more will the other lose? Both resist the inevitability of life, and that does not allow the relation to move to a higher step. You had a beautiful relationship, now it is over, and you may grieve over it for some time...This was part of the deal from the beginning, it was there as a possibility from the beginning. And that’s what makes relationship so total. Accepting this will raise both to a level of deeper friendship and sharing.

You want to achieve something in the internal world but end up saying, 'I know it is right, but I'm struggling. I know but...' If you are caught in this bind, you won't achieve anything. Nothing can be done for you or by you. You are stuck in the causal layer of energy. This is the layer where you are trapped when you are in depression. You know you want to do something, you know you have the ability to do it, but you give reasons for not being able to achieve it. To get out of this stalemate, take a strong step ahead and work towards your goal in an integrated manner. In any situation, think: 'How will the Master behave in this situation?' Of course, Master would never let the mind create dilemmas. So live Him, live the Master! Any problem can be solved through this line of thought.

Guru (Jupiter god) as represented in Tiruvannamalai Ashram (India). Around Guru stand the other 8 Navagraha deities (deities associated with the nine planets), along with their Navagraha trees (trees associated with the nine planets), to bless all with abundance.
