Ruling The Mind By Increasing Your Qualities And Powers (Part 3)

Rulers have ruled over different territories all across the world since thousands of years. There was a time when rulers ruled the complete world, a time when there was no trace of sorrow or hatred or injustice or peacelessness in their kingdom. We know these rulers as devis and devtas or deities today. What was the secret of their success? They possessed, apart from the skills to rule, all the powers to succeed.

So what is the secret of success for the spiritual king, which is me, the soul?

I increase my spiritual powers and make them a part of my personality. How? Creating thought affirmations which we explained in yesterday’s message. Thought affirmations of virtues like peace, love, joy and power.

These virtue thoughts, when repeatedly brought into my conscious mind everyday, gradually influence my sub-conscious mind positively. This then fills me, the spiritual king’s personality, with those virtues. Virtues in turn increase spiritual power inside me. This in turn makes me strong, a king with the eight primary spiritual powers - power to tolerate, power to accommodate, power to face, power to discriminate, power to judge, power to withdraw, power to pack up and power to co-operate. Such a power-filled king is then obeyed by his ministers - the thoughts, feelings and emotions and his people - the attitudes, expressions, words and actions. All of them learn to respond to external situations, in tune with their king’s personality i.e. in tune with the virtues and the eight powers. As the king, so his ministers. As the ministers, so the people – resulting in a peace, love and joy filled atmosphere in the complete kingdom. Such an order filled kingdom is a kingdom of high self-esteem. Also, it is respected by other people it associates with everyday because the people who come in close connection with such a kingdom experience these virtues and powers from the kingdom and the king at all times.
