REALIZE WHAT YOU ARE:
to yourself in your inner eye, then a change will come in you and everyone will notice it. People will wonder what cosmetic you are using, but the real cosmetic is meditation. You will change yourself if you believe in yourself.
In life, what you conceive, you receive. What you think, you become. Now our life is out of our control because we feel sorry for ourselves and do not sincerely want to take the steps to change. We only wish we could change. Put a wish has no strength, no backbone. A wish is wishy-washy. We must use our will instead. Don't allow any doubt to counteract your will. Otherwise one thought will simply cancel another and you will go nowhere. A negative thought is a weed that can spoil the garden of your heart and mind.
Once I knew a man who had a large house and a beautiful lawn and garden. Each morning he would wake up refreshed, go out and sit in his garden and meditate. He would look over the grass and plants and seek out any weeds. If he saw an unwanted weed growing anywhere in the place he would bring his attention on that spot and concentrate. The man's gardener was very sensitive; he would then see the weed and go remove it. Then the man would scan the lawn again and find another weed. Bringing his attention to focus on it, the gardener would then see it and take it out. In this way the man kept his lawn and garden and all the grounds of his home beautiful. In our meditation we are doing the same thing.
Now as you are sitting and seeing your face in a beautiful light, you may notice some skin problems. Why do you worry about it? It is the sign of the bubbling energy of youth, of your inner heat and strength. Do not be negative about it; eat the proper food and watch as it goes away.
