In quest of myself!
I’m your “fairy dust”, belonging to India. Starting this blog to pen down my thoughts and experiences. I would like to write more about things I undergo or have experienced.
To me this blog writing is like ‘infant steps’ ,a venture to motivate my spirit that had lost its vibe lately. Through writings I hope to meet and know lovely people…my soul tribe!
Ho’oponopono, might be familiar to many. It’s a practice of forgiveness used by Hawaiian healers,with a tradition of many years. It can be used for individual healing as well as healing others.
The word is broken into ho’ means ‘to make’ and pono ‘right’. It’s used to correct anything within us or other’s, that restrict the sense of well-being in many aspects.
The grounds on which this practice works is that every problem that is manifested outside,lies within ourselves. Ho’oponopono heals our inner soul and in turn our outer world .Every experience good or bad that we have, is related to how we perceive things, or our understanding of realities. Our concentration would be limited just to the physical body, meaning how as a person we behave. But what we are is just not something limited to our physical world.
There is a very intricate inner world which we have to first address. Only when the inner world is in balance, everything in the physical realm would be in harmony. Ho’oponopono starts cleansing your inner being to make the best version of yourself in the outer world. It’s a very simple practice through which one can heal.
The four steps of Ho’oponopono
After understanding ho’oponopono,the next step is master how to practice it. The ho’oponopono healing consists of four simple statements, I’m sorry, please forgive me, thank you, I love you. Though the practice is so simple,the mastery of this depends on individuals. One needs perseverance to put this into healing. The steps can be simply explained to have a clearer insight.
*I’m Sorry : the first step is owning up your mistakes or anything that’s not right within you. This kills the ego within us. We take responsibility of our thoughts or actions by saying sorry.
* Please Forgive Me : the act of asking forgiveness raises your soul to a higher level. Through this step ask an apology to the universe, not necessarily because you have done any grave mistake, but you want to clear yourself of any inner debts that hold you from experiencing peace.
* Thank You : by saying thank you, we express our gratefulness to the universe in general or for specific reasons. Even being a part of this cosmos is nothing less to be thankful about. By practicing thankfulness consistently, we open doors for more blessings.
* I Love You :every healing starts with unconditional pure love. When the energy of love is send out,it reverberates back. Starting sending love to yourself,the universe and everything around you. This will lead you to your intended healing.
Where Ho’oponopono can be used
This ancient practice of healing can be used anywhere, to heal the mind, body , emotions, relations. The key to this is that, one practice this with belief, consistency and a pure heart. We can put this method to use in resolving any sort of problem in any area.
The story of Dr Hew Len is enough to understand the magical power of Ho’oponopono. The doctor cleared a whole ward of mentally ill patients even without meeting them. For that he first healed himself, then he dealt with his patients at a subconscious level.
A few area where ho’oponopono can be put to use are
Personal Healing : every change should happen from within. Only when the inner battles are settled,one can behave as a poised and composed person. You can start saying these four phrases repeatedly to the inner spirit to start healing from inwards.
Relationship Healing : Ho’oponopono can be also used to heal your relationship with people. At times we may not have a healthy terms with certain people,but we whole heartedly want to revoke it also. In such instances practicing this would be helpful. Do it by imagining the person and then mentally connect to them. Think about what needs healing with that person and repeat the phrases. Slowly the bitterness in relations would start healing.
Health Healing : our physical health is linked to our mental health. That’s why in many cases the placebo effect works. One can use ho’oponopono for the betterment of their health. Concentrate on the area of your body that needs healing and practice ho’oponopono.
It’s not about where you can use it, it’s about how you use it. Practicing this requires a lot of concentration and mind training, the most difficult part. Once your mind is in focus, it becomes easier to understand your inner mess , and then clear it.
The way of practicing ho’oponopono is personal. One has to do it in their own comfort zone. It’s best done in a meditative mode. You can say it in mind with closed eyes or say it loud. You can say by looking at the mirror also.
As I mentioned earlier its all about consistency and your mindset. We have to first accept what has to be changed, by setting aside any sort off egos. Such practices does not show results very soon. It needs patience as the cleansing starts from inside, and one may not be able to imagine how much debris lie within.
Anything that brings personal and interpersonal harmony, is worth trying. Because it’s true happiness and peace we all crave for. Stay happy, stay blessed. 😇
The blue sky that we see everyday may not be an extraordinary sight. But on some days has the sky evoked a warm happiness within you?? It has on some days touched me in a way, I cannot express.
Waking up to a fresh dawn, the chirping of birds, the gentle breeze and above all the canopy of blue sky, elates my spirits. It’s merely the joy that I have been blessed with another day, to stand under the blue sky. That’s when my soul fills with gratefulness because many would have lost their opportunity to stand under the sky,and I still stand here……
There are many people who keep journals or dairies for themselves. Scripting is also similar, but directed mainly towards manifestation. I don’t have in-depth knowledge of scripting related to LOA, but have some experiences which I got when it was tried in my own way
As always, I was skeptical when I first started scripting. But slowly I tuned into the rhythm of writing. We may get guidance from outside, but such kind of writing has a pattern unique to oneself, because the way everyone communicates to the universe is different. After the initial struggle of channeling my vibrations, I got comfortable with my scripting. I don’t believe any one thing can be life changing, but any habit that can bring a positive change within us is always welcoming. Scripting helped me in this line and also contributed with its own sweet surprises😊
How scripting helps
Writing of any sort is the most elaborate and sophisticated of all forms. When we put anything in writing it’s more assertive and valid. This is why we document all major matters. It’s the same phenomena for our dreams also. A few things in which scripting helped me.
1)Focus : manifestation is always related to visualisation. People who find visualising their dreams can write it down. One can make their writing like a visual image. This helps in focusing on one’s dreams.
2) Clarity : our thought process can go haywire at times and we cannot be sure about what we need. Writing has its own order hence it gives clarity to our thoughts.
3) Prioritizing Needs : writing helps to recognize what is the most needful desire. It helps in slowing down one a bit. It gives an idea about the importance things one should work for.
4) Sequencing Thoughts : writing brings about an orderliness in our thoughts. It’s helps in keeping our visions and thoughts in a systematic line. Which in turn would helps us to to plan our life more effectively.
5) Sync with the external world : the dreams we carry within ourselves has to meaning unless it’s manifested in the outer world. When we script to manifest there is a transaction of our thoughts to the universe. We are putting forth our desires to the vast cosmos and synchronising with the outer energies.
Scripting Tips
As I had mentioned earlier, scripting or any form of writing has a touch of one’s own soul, so a clear cut way cannot be put forth. Here I would pen down some tips I follow, those which have worked for me.
1) Expressing Gratitude : begin writing with a note of gratitude. You can thank the universe, God or any higher order that you are connected to. By thanking we are giving in our trust to the outer world. The more grateful you are,the more blessings would seek you.
2) Positive Vocabulary : write in a happy tone. Include positive words. This would help in raising our positive vibration. For eg ‘ I’m so happy to , or joyful..’. However you word, it should evoke an inner happiness.
3) Write in Present Tense : it’s always better to write in the present, like your dream has already happened. This removes the doubtful nature.
4) Clear and Concise : put down your thoughts with clarity. Phrase meaningful short sentences.
5) Attractive Layout : it can be personal choice. I prefer my writings to be little colourful. I enjoy writing in colour pens or sometimes with fruit smell pens. It uplifts my mood.
Ask, Believe, Receive
Realisation of your dreams does not end with scripting, you have to work for that. The universe has plenty to offer us, but we don’t know how to ask for it. Once one learns to communicate with the outer world, things would ease out.
Every habit we follow, should be with a good intent. The universe does not read what we write, but feels our energy. So one has to be very careful what we put out. The energies within ourselves should align with that of the universe. Ask,for what you need, because unless you ask how will you be heard. Believe, you have received what you have asked for. It’s in this phase one has to take action. Actions and believe go hand in hand. Receive, when you ask and believe, you are ready to receive your blessings.
Scripting has helped me to be more focused on my dreams. Starting a blog was a dream that manifested with my scripting 😊. Many more things have come into reality after I started this habit.
Give your dreams to the universe with a positive attitude. Yours vibrations and your hardwork will bring you closer to your dreams.😇
Some pictures just touch us so deeply. Probably the most powerful voice , would be the voice of hunger. A feeling common to all living organisms. Every single action is actually targeted at satiating one’s hunger.
Hunger does not always need words to express, a look into the eyes of the hungry is enough. Seeing these looks, now I often leave some food for strays, and have also received their thanks, again from their looks.
If there is any fulfilling act, it would be filling an empty tummy. No joy can replace that. Every being other than human, aims only in satisfying it’s hunger. Man is an ever desiring creature. Give him whatever, he would never say enough. It’s only food you can give him and once his tummy is full he would have to say enough.
If one can feed the mouth of a deserving, that would be the most rewarding act. Try not to overlook the look in the eyes of the hungry.😊🙏
Have you ever felt overly concerned for someone’s problem,to an extent were you feel the problem is yours!! If yes, you also maybe an ‘emotional sponge’ like me.
This is a problem which mainly empaths have to deal with. Empathy always have a higher virtue than sympathy, but if a fine line is not drawn, it can more punishing than rewarding.
Absorbing Energies
When one feels a lot for others, they absorb their energies so intensely that they start feeling the same way as the other person. This is specially in regards to negative emotions.
It’s not necessary people approach us with their problems and we may not be able to say a no. This can happen in our daily interactions with people in our circle. People might be going through some or other problems daily and we unknowingly become involved with it, especially when they are connected to us in one way or the other.
Being aware of another’s problem,an empath would always search for ways in solving the problem for them. But it’s not easy for them as they themselves would be feeling the other’s emotions so intensely, which would even affect their thought process.
Such people will be like a sponge absorbing a lot of negative energies around them leaving them stressed, anxious, drained, confused, unhappy. I have gone through these emotions on a daily basis when dealing with people in the beginning.
Set Boundaries for Mental Peace
When one becomes an emotional sponge, it can be self depriving to oneself in certain ways. The only solution for this is to set clear boundaries for your emotions. Feeling for others, understanding them,in the real sense is all good, but it should be kept in limits so that it doesn’t affect one’s mental peace. It’s necessary to keep one’s emotions in check so that we are not drowned by other’s problems. Only if this boundary is set, we can offer any worthwhile help to others, even comforting them.
In our daily interactions we need to be kind and compassionate , but it’s also important to let people handle their issues, rather than taking responsibility of everything that comes your way. Being understanding and supportive is the best thing one can do. If a healthy boundary for anything is not maintained, it can always take a toll on you.
Our life is a give and take of things. There would be some kind of interaction with people around us. But do we appreciate or get appreciated often! That’s one thing we may overlook,though not consciously.
We may have often heard people telling to do things, not waiting to be acclaimed. Well if we wait so much for acceptance,one may not be able to do anything worthwhile. But are all of us so emotionally strong to keep doing things without any appreciation?
Appreciation or acceptance is like any basic need of human beings. Life would be so boring if we started doing things just to please us. Even a simple act like dressing up, is to feel good and confident before other’s. There is always a want of appreciation within all of us,even if some deny it.
To weak willed people, doing even a small thing might be difficult. Such people get easily disheartened. We may actually never know how something means to somebody. That’s were appreciation plays a very important role. When we appreciate people for what they do even if it’s very small, it can be a big motivation to them. Evoking the emotion of “feel good”, in them through appreciation,can help them to do more. I personally feel a zest to perform better when I’m appreciated and accepted.
There are so many ways to show our appreciation. A simple kind gesture can bring so much of happiness to others. But aren’t we stingy in this regard? Our life becomes a lot more happier when we start appreciating. I don’t get that kindness from others, then why should I? We needn’t think it that line, because happiness is not just about receiving,but it’s also about giving.
What appreciation does
Appreciation is the greatest way of showing gratitude. If it’s made a daily habit, it is something that has two way benefit, both for the receiver and the giver. Some of them being
Improves Relationship : appreciation always making bonds between people strong by building a trust.
Promotes Mental Health : when appreciated there is a surge of ‘happy hormones’, which improves our mental health.
Builds Confidence : the more one gets acknowledged,the better their confidence level would be. It’s like a signboard saying you are on the right track.
Increased Performance : when one is properly appreciated,they feel like performing more better the next time. Which will provide more fruitful outcomes.
Biggest Motivation : If you want to motivate someone, just appreciate.
Promote Divergent Thinking : When something is accepted and acclaimed, a person will be motivated to think differently and come out with more innovative ideas.
Good Value Sets : We always strive in inculcating good values and developing the mind to appreciate right from childhood is a cherished value.
Feeling satisfied : When we are appreciated there will be more satisfaction in what we do,which would make us more happy.
Spreading Love : A kind word or gesture spreads love among fellow beings. It increases one’s likeability and acceptance.
A Peaceful Sleep : If anything can give me a good night’s sleep,I would go with it, if it’s healthy. Appreciation helps our body in many ways as it triggers the good hormones. Also sleeping with a grateful heart, being loved and accepted,what more does one need to sleep like a baby.
The benefits of appreciation are so many, that I can just ramble on and on. But just one reason is enough to practice appreciation, it make us and someone else equally happy. You may not get acclaimed by masses,but one person to appreciate you from their heart, is enough to keep you moving forward!
Just flexing those muscles around your face, can make your day and sometimes somebody else’s day too. A smile can spread so much happiness and love. You don’t need another magic to take away bitterness from hearts, a ‘smile’, from heart would suffice.
Have you ever thought, what pain a stranger walking past us might be holding in their heart? But sometimes an unexpected simple gesture like a smile, can lighten their spirits.
So all beautiful souls keep smiling.. spread smiles.😊
“The Secret”,by Rhonda Byrne,is a book I accidentally stumbled upon,one which ignited the embers in me. To me ,I was just a fragment of the universe,a mere human existence. It’s of lately I started realising there is a larger perspective to all this. This realisation left me in awe!!
This book, in that line was an eye opener for me. Reading it made me to start thinking differently. The knowledge that the universe is constantly interacting with me,pacifies my soul. From the moment I realised this,I never felt alone.
I don’t have any profound knowledge of the LOA, but after I started hearing from my spirit,I realised the universe was communicating with me. There is an intricate connection of energies among everything that exists.
Slowly I started connecting to the universe in my own way. The answer to my soul doubts are right here,but understanding it is not easy. I’m still in my ‘baby steps’,in the path of discovering the magic of the universe!
Anyone having a passion for photography and the skills to do so can always capture anything in their frame. But for people like me who don’t know much about the basics of photography or have proper equipments,some unexpected clicks randomly taken are prized possessions.
Aesthetic pleasure
Maybe no painters pallette can produce such beautiful shades as the sun can,on the canvas of the blue sky. Nature is always mesmerizing!
