what is your MOMENT like

The rare moments are not the moment when there is something worth looking at but the moment when we are capable of seeing. Never underestimate the power of a single moment. An important learning ‘Don’t wait for the perfect moment, take the moment and make it perfect.’

We need to realize deeply that the present moment is all one has and that every moment in our lives is a miracle to enjoy instead of ignoring. Some moments are happy some are sad but the moment you have accepted responsibility for everything in your life that is the moment you gain the power to change things in your life. Those who realize this carry joy in their heart and are good to manage all kind of moments. Most people exist but to learn to live is the rarest quality in the world.

One of the easiest ways to enjoy a moment is to mindfully engage with it and appreciate it for what it is. You can do this in countless little ways each day to bring greater meaning and peace to every moment. Your odds are worldly teachings which influence you to pursue happiness in things and then chasing their possession making you miss on to memorable moments of good karmas. A beautiful life is a collection of un-forgetful moments but when influenced by the 5 vices which corrupt minds excite desires, greed and jealousy terrifying every moment after moment with an insecurity of having less or losing it. Most importantly moment by moment one goes further away from the divine losing capability to experience happiness or manage pain and suffering by distancing from the healer.

Scriptures give clarity “That time that moment, that instant that second is so fruitful O my soul, when the lord comes into my consciousness.  “Forgetting the beloved even for a moment the mind is afflicted with terrible disease”.  “Without the Lords name life passes in vain in the world and every moment is useless.” SGGS Angs 540, 21, 505, 455.  Those who do not take pride in themselves but seek the sanctuary of the lord are souls who follow & practice scriptures, slowing down each day to appreciate the way things look, sound, taste, smell, and feel. These souls realize the present moment is all one has and it is a treat for us to learn how they use their moment.

There are souls who find some reason in a moment to express gratitude or to bless others. Every breath is in a state of Shamma-Shukrana-Nadar or in a recitation of a mantra.  When they eat the moment is in gratitude to the Lord for the food and they thank the body & all its organs for its complex functioning. When they give money they bless the money to bring good use to the recipient, when they receive money they pray the givers coffers has barkat (multiplies). They share silent blessings upon people they connect with and will find some reason to volunteer and help others within their means & capacity. Getting to know of someone’s illness that moment goes in prayer for their speedy recovery & thanking God for their personal wellbeing. When they leave the house they request the Divine to accompany, a faith that HE will help them conduct fairly with others and conclude unresolved matters bringing better sense to prevail to your advantage in other persons mind. The quality of attention and action we bring to each moment determines our quality of life.

It may just be fair to conclude a moment can be so busy and blessed.

You have just to live it to the fullest.
