Smaller than a Corn of Rice, Greater than the Sky
The Magic of Securing Your ‘Self’
Securing your ‘Self’ will mean that you are relating and responding to your own being.
This then leads to ensuring ‘The Self Life’ which is the most important among all your five lives.
‘The Self Life’ is actually the first life for each one of us. I would say,
“The real magic begins when you decide to be yourself…..”
Securing our Self and ensuring ‘The Self Life’ can have such beneficial effects on you in so many ways:
❤️Self-connect deepens your connection with all others.
❤️Self-love helps you be truly loving for all around us.
❤️Self-care gives good mental and emotional health.
When Self-connect, Self-love, and Self-care are in place, the results will also be in terms of —
✅Self-esteem, which builds respect for own values and value.
✅Self-respect, which gives courage and confidence.
✅Self-confidence, which creates positivity.
All that and more is possible for a good ‘Self Life’ — When there is a consciousness of your inner being, when you are in ‘I being’ mode.
The revered Chandogya Upanishad captures ‘The Self’ so very well:
“He is my ‘self’ within the heart,
smaller than a corn of rice,
smaller than a corn of barley,
smaller than a mustard seed,
smaller than a canary seed, or the kernel of a canary seed.
He also is my ‘self’ within the heart,
greater than the earth,
greater than the sky,
greater than heaven,
greater than all these worlds.”
I would conclude by saying,
“The real magic begins when you decide to be yourself because then you are at your finest and the most magnificent.”
And you can secure your ‘Self’ and attain your ‘Self Life’ by consciously moving from ‘I Doing’ mode into the ‘I Being’ mode.
