"Lord, in this dream of yours I see the promise of your great longevity. You will live to such an old age that none of the members of your family will have to witness your death. They will be spared this painful experience." The king sat up and said, "So I shall live long, and my family will be spared the sorrow of mourning for me." Then he smiled and was consoled.
Communication can elicit or can crush hope. Communication can turn potential friends into enemies, or potential enemies into friends.
Let us enter meditation by concentrating on how we use our energy in communicating; do we conceal or do we reveal ourselves. Let us concentrate on how our communication, by revealing ourselves, can spread in the world around us, amity, appreciation, compassion, equanimity and concord. We cannot wait for these qualities to come from the outside; we must initiate them. Thoughts
1. Let us communicate with love and intelligence, to increase the earth's expression of joy.
2. We cannot wait for non-violence and truth to take over the world. We have to be the initiators.
3. Man's energy of spirit can have dominance over other forms of energy. Let us use it as light and love.
