The relationship between emotions and beliefs
by Atman Nityananda
Emotions are not created by beliefs, but they are significantly influenced by them.
Emotions are inherent within us; beliefs are not.
Emotions are primarily immediate reactions to sensory experiences, as well as to their memories and to thoughts related to those experiences.
The notion that beliefs — like thoughts — create emotions is one of the most mistaken ideas found in modern spiritual teachings and psychological theories.
Repeat God’s name constantly
“The water to purify your heart is the name of God.” “Of utmost importance is to increase the repetition of God’s Name (japa) daily. In this way, your heart and mind will be purified, and only then will you find (realize) God within you.”
~ Haidakhan Babaji
The ‘secret’ to a plentiful life, a life of harmony, happiness and contentment is to have a sattvic mind free from desires and ego and to live in every moment in conscious contact with our true Self (Consciousness).
🌺 Peace, Love, Harmony
