Patterns of Behaviour

HI folks-

I can't believe this?!

None of you have had a single 'different experience'?

Does that make me normal, not so normal, abnormal, paranormal or just far from normal?!

Thank you Vinayak for your compliment!

I still only know only enough to send and receive mails and write this blog!

My level of intelligence is pretty hilarious, though.

I told someone the other day that I'm doing a computer course, and impressed, when he asked me which language, said English!

Which was why one Raju wanted to know which language I was going to write this blog in!

Hmm, wait till we meet, I'll tell you.

There is 'a bolt from the blue' wanting to know where Vispi's books would be available.

I will give you their website, you can find out from them and let everyone know too.

Ask your brother to help.

Actually, I'd like all of you to go through Vispi' newsletter regularly.

Good for the soul.

It's direct communication from the other side!

The site is vrrpspirituallearning.com/

Today,I want to tell you about the patterns we make in our choices and behaviour.

Have you at any time, noticed as to how certain situations or types of people keep repeating in your life?

Lets take a few examples -

You study very hard but are a nervous wreck before the exam.

You never get what you think is your due.

You do all the hard work and someone else invariably flicks the credit.

Your friends-all different sets, are actually quite similar.

They dont take you seriously enough/ bully you/you cant depend on them and so on.

You seem to choose a particular type of girlfriend or boyfriend, husband or wife.

You took all the verbal or physical abuse that came to you as a child quietly because you were scared and 'they' were big and strong.

You do the same now because you are so used to it.

Patterns become evident to us by the time we are in our mid-twenties, if not earlier.

They have to do with the choices we have consciously made before taking birth.

In the Astral plane when we have a look at the life just finished, we see where and why we went wrong in our behaviour.

At times we have been nasty, or stingy,or cheated, looted or killed.

Let's say we have been very cruel to someone, harrassed unnecessarily.

To make amends, we choose to become the other party this time.

So we are born with our temper intact, but in a poor household or where everyone is a bully and there is no safe outlet for our anger.

Slowly we learn that it is a corrosive sentiment, that it harms and that we have to control it.

We do not flare when baited, curse when others dont do as we wish and remain calm when provoked.

If we actually, over a period of time succeed in doing this, we break our pattern and are freed of it forever.

Similarly, we may be in an abusive, or a kind of relationship which is going nowhere.

The behaviour in such a situation becomes a pattern of anger, denial, hatred.

It serves no purpose, other than strengthing the negative pattern for many more lifetimes to come.

In a negative sort of way we may enjoy the situation and the poor-me pattern too, but it pulls us down badly.

So basically, all the negative patterns are meant to be broken.

Identifying ones own is the first and the major step.

Do you remember the earlier blog on Energy stealing?

Another read will help in this exercise too.

And the way out is to acknowledge and accept ourselves as we are and then meditate.

All patterns and energy stealing has its root in low self-esteem, in fear of the unknown.

Once these are started to be taken care of with meditation, the graph begins to go up.

For the times when we are in the physical form, as well as in the Spiritual one.

Bye for now.
