Emptiness Becomes Openness

Sometimes A Loss Can Be A Gain

When we lose anything that we cherish, the sense of emptiness we are left behind with can be overwhelming. A space that was filled, whether in our lives or our hearts, is now a void, and the feelings of pain, loss, and separation can sometimes be difficult to bear. While it is always important to honor what we've lost, sometimes a loss can also represent a chance for a new beginning. When we are ready, the void left by a relationship, a job, or a dream can then be viewed as open space that can be filled with something new: new experiences, new knowledge, new job opportunities, new dreams, new people, and new ways to grow.

There are many ways to weave the threads of loss into a blessing. If you've lost a job or ended a relationship, your first thoughts may revolve around filling the void with a similar job or the same kind of relationship. Try not to rush into anything just to fill up the emptiness. The loss of a job can free you up to explore new opportunities, especially if you've outgrown the old one. Likewise, the loss of a relationship can give you a chance to rediscover your own interests, explore new passions, and meet different people.

If seeking the good in what seems like a bad situation makes you feel uncomfortable, then try to remember that you are not devaluing what you've lost or replacing it cold-heartedly. You are surrendering to the fact that, in life, we sometimes have to let go and allow for what is new to enter into the open spaces created by our losses. In doing so, you are honoring what has left you and welcoming the new into your life with open space, an open mind, and an open heart.

What do you think?

Retrograde Effect

I was talking to a friend sometime back and he gave me some wisdom about Loss and Gain........

Sometimes, when people around you, who were at  your position once, seem to go ahead of you and you seem to go even more backwards than your current position due to some troubling situation in life like that of losing a job.......don't losse heart.......may be its time for retrograde effect.......

What is retrograde effect?
Suppose you are walking on a path and suddenly you come across a ditch which you cannot cross if you continue to walk at the same speed. If you try to do it, you will fall into it. So, what you need to do is.......go back a few stpes, run at top speed and jump.......the momentum gained as a result of the jump will take you much ahead than what you would have reached if you would have continued to walk at your leisurely speed.

This is called retrograde effect. So, whenever you face a crisis situation in life, remember, may be its time for retrograde effect to take effect. Allow the things to take their own course. I know its very difficult but here comes the importance of Satsang. Keep doing Satsang, listen and read the words of wisdom, trust in God and one day everything will be fine.......

If I put the retrograde effect in simple words, it would go like this:

" Kabhi kabhi kuch jitne ke liye kuch haarna bhi parta hay aur haar kar jitne waale ko Baazigar kehte hain. "

Thanx for appreciating Pooja. I am no one. God does his work in variety of ways. Sometimes, by making a fool like me, HIS medium.
