The Diamond is within You

Once upon a time, there were 3 angels who were flying towards God to know the location of the presence of Precious Jewel - The Valuable diamond in the human world. God, the creator of this Universe, smiles at them in a very loving way and says that oh my sweet angels, please fly and search yourself, and then I will guide you.

The angels start searching from one place to another looking for the precious stone. One angel flies inside the water bodies, seas, oceans and tries to search but unfortunately could not find any. The other angel also searches the cities and villages where human settlement is there but could not find there too.
The third angel searches all the other natural habitats like forests, deserts, etc. but there too could not find any precious jewel.

So, unfortunately, all the angels went to the Source of creation, to God, and said that they could not find the diamond. God again smiled, a smile filled with wit and all-knowing grace. God then says, Oh my Angels you have searched in the whole world but what a dilemma, all human beings are also doing the same. When looking for the precious jewels of love, peace, and happiness, they are searching outside, and they are unable to find it - this is suffering!

The Precious Jewels of angels, I have hidden within the heart and soul of each man. Within the human being, I have hidden the Diamond…You need to go within to find it and attain it. All pursuits going outside in search of it is fruitless and shall leave man with nothing... Oh, my Divine Angles take this beautiful message to the world - The Diamond is within you!! Search for it within you!!


Moral: All pursuits in the external world for inner peace are fruitless. The external world can provide us with all tangible comforts but not inner peace and bliss, for the experience of this Diamond, the man has to delve deep within, and then he shall be blessed with the fruits of infinite peace in the beatitude of the inner temple.

Meditation commentary

Hello friends, Sharing a simple guided commentary for moving inwards into a meditative state. Let’s pause and take out some time for this quiet, inward journey. You can play a soft instrumental music in the background and slowly read these words, trying to feel them deeply. Begin by sitting in a comfortable posture, and allowing your eyes to close. Put your hands on the lap and let your shoulders drop. Keep your back straight. Now, begin by taking a few slow, long, deep breaths. Breathe in fully, and breathe out fully through your nose. Allow your breath to settle into its own rhythm. Pay close attention to your breathing cycle. Notice each breath, as it enters through your nostrils, travels down your lungs, and makes your belly expand. Notice your breath flowing outside through your nostrils, contracting your belly inwards. Observe and accept your experience in this moment without judgement. Now, we shall do a gradual relaxation of our body muscles. Bring your awareness to your body. ...

People Pleasing: A trait to be understood and reflected upon

A “people pleaser” means a person who feels a strong need to please others, even at their own cost. They may feel that their wants and needs are unimportant, so they alter their personalities in order to make others happy. Often, we engage in people pleasing unconsciously or witness people around us doing that, but we often fail to comprehend the underlying causes of this tendency. Let’s analyze and understand the reasons behind it, and give it some contemplation. Some common factors behind it are:     • Low self- esteem     • A childhood trauma     • Avoidance of conflict      • Low self esteem:  People who have low self-esteem are dependent on the external validation, and approval of others to feel confident. They feel good, when others shower them with compliments. They unconsciously base their esteem on outer appreciation, and seek reinforcement of value from others. They also feel they are less worthy and deserve less in comparison ...
