Happy Thanksgiving!
Take a moment, sit back and close your eyes. Reflect. What are you thankful for? Who are you grateful to?
Some special person, parents, kids, family, work, society, country, riches, one specific moment, happiness, love, life, God or the whole Universe and its divine energy that actually is the source of it all?
Well, the list that emerges truly is audacious. It shall go on and on...Ever wondered how we seem to forget all about it as we go about busy days and crumbly nights, cribbing grumbling or just being occupied? Ever counted these blessings and felt a deep sense of gratitude for this precious life itself?
It's quite easy to take things that matter the most - for granted. Like Oxygen- without which, within a few seconds, we would practically be gagging and begging for life! Covid times did bring a huge lesson about this life giving, life saving gift - that we hardly count as a blessing, in our non stop journey of breathe in and breathe out. Don't we?
Much like O2 are water, air, trees, nature, rivers, food, soil etc. etc. The mother Earth that has made life possible- for that matter! Say a quiet, yet heartfelt Thank You today to all these silent gifts that sustain us and our lives, loved ones, homes, families and dreams.
Each aspect of our life deserves gratitude...because this complex yet beautiful web of life cannot be woven without the blessings of Universe. Let's be grateful for every experience - not only for the good times, but also for the adversity - as it has transformational power. Challenges tend to give us a superior personality, on a worldly as well as spiritual level, besides boosting our confidence, self worth and ability to embrace life better. On the other side of adversity awaits a stronger, more resilient and tenacious personality!
Universal rule of attraction and magnetism
Gratitude is like a magnet for blessings...the more we are grateful, the more calmer, peaceful and blissful our life shall get.
Developing a sense of Gratitude- The Power of Prayer
Prayers or chanting mantras is a powerful way to surrender and be thankful for what we have. When we bow down to the almighty with full faith, we open up ourselves to accept and receive energies and His will. Energy patterns of the surroundings - which includes the energies from the planets get synergized, when we offer our gratitude in form of mantras / prayers... These can be different for different Zodiac Signs / Ascendants.
Everything in universe is correlated with one another, Vedic science / astrology establish the correlation between the heavenly bodies and events taking place on earth.
Today, on the day of Thanksgiving- say a prayer for all the food on your table. Say a Thank you to the Universe and its amazing energies for making us breathe and keeping us alive. And, let's not forget to express gratitude for the real riches of our lives...which actually make our lives worthwhile and gorgeous.
Let's also carry this attitude of gratitude in our everyday lives. We shall soon see miracles and witness how marvelously everything conspires to make us happier and blissful.
