As kids we all hear mythological stories of the existence of a perfect world up above in the sky. The world where deities live. A world of magic stories, where there is no pain or suffering. Where everything is available to everyone. We hear stories about the flying angels, Farishta. We also hear stories about a world down under.
Angel world & devil world
| Angels (farishte) These angels come to the rescue of those good hearted people who are somehow caught up in some difficulty. | A world of devils, where people are given pain in unimaginable ways. |
| The pure and perfect are shown as light, flying and happy. They have all powers and attainments. | In that world everyone is evil, thinking of harming others. |
| They think good and do good to all. Their love and good feelings are without boundaries of mine and yours. | And the impure are shown as ugly and greedy and heavy with the burden of evil. In reality there are no different physical worlds. |
Power of positive thoughts
There is only one world. And it is determined by our state of mind. Positive and powerful thoughts change our internal world and we experience being in a world of happiness. Negative and waste thoughts give us the experience of being in hell. Heaven and Hell are truly created by our thoughts and state of consciousness. But the collective consciousness then gives shape to the outside world.
Nature which includes all other living creatures also experience pain because of our negativity. Nature takes shape as per our consciousness. In a world of negativity even animals become ugly, they experience and give pain. The negative vibrations irritate nature and it responds by bringing natural disasters.
In a pure and perfect world, nature is also pure and responds by giving all its goodness to the Human souls. In such a perfect world there is never any natural calamity or upheaval. In the beginning everything is pure and beautiful and in order.
Degree of human consciousness
With time gradually the degree of purity starts coming down. Everything has a tendency to go from a state of order to a state of disorder. No external force is required to create something old and disorderly. But external force is required to bring things in order or to create something new. When trying to grow a good plant we need to give lot of care and attention.
The number of good plants is less as they don’t grow automatically. We need to get good quality seed, have good soil, keep attention to give proper water and sunlight to the plant. And then with time it takes shape and reaps the fruit of our hard work. However, weeds don’t have to be grown. They germinate automatically and then multiply rapidly. We need to put effort to take them out. Our thoughts are much the same.
Know how to rectify waste and negative thoughts?
Positive and powerful thoughts have to be planted in the mind. They are the seed of our action, attitude and ultimately shape our personality. So, the real success is defined.
Negative thoughts however come easily and multiply rapidly. We have to put in effort to replace these negative and waste thoughts with positive and powerful thoughts. Positive thoughts are less in number, they are powerful and they nourish our soul. Not just our own self but they charge the environment around us. Negative thoughts are more in number, they are weak, and they exhaust us quickly.
Replacing negative with positive: Mind control
The process of meditation is not nullifying our mind, but replacing negative thoughts with positive thoughts. There is effort in this process and initially it can be tiring. But the reward is multi-fold. Just like growing a good plant, we need to have good thoughts which are the seed, then nourish them by reminding ourselves and giving force to the positivity.
This is like giving water and sunlight to the seed of thought. And take care that some stray creatures don’t destroy them. Which means not allowing the surroundings to affect our positivity, not involving ourselves in useless gossip or feed our mind from the many sources of waste and negativity.
Conclusion:
When the collective consciousness of many human souls turns from negative to positive and reaches a threshold, the transformation of the old world starts and it turns into a pure and happy world again.
