Integrity gives life to action
There is only one difference between technique and ritual. When it is done with integrity even an ordinary ritual becomes a great meditation t e c h n i q u e t h a t l e a d s y o u t o Enlightenment. When it is done without any integrity, as a routine, then even a meditation technique becomes a ritual.
ART OF THE DAY
Why should you practice integrity?
- 1. Bring integrity into every step! Nothing else is going to help you. There is no shortcut; this is the shortest cut! Complete and create the space of integrity; this has no replacement. Whether you live a spiritual life or a regular life, integrity forms the basis for life!
Why should you practice integrity?
- 2. Establish yourself in integrity, you will see that your being suddenly cognizes a new life, a new reality.
- 3. Just like the swan which can separate the water from the milk in a mixture of milk and water, the brain established in integrity can separate truth from untruth.
- 4. Only you are responsible for your life. When you iron out your inner space with integrity, the first thing that integrity will do to you is remove all the negative weeds that you constantly cherish, which are rooted in your past.
Did you know you can control your senses?
Controlling the senses requires controlling the mind. Controlling the mind requires control of thoughts. Controlling the thoughts requires integrity. When we continuously live integrity, we will become awa re of the thoughts and proc e ss e s happening in our inner space.
constantly listening to our own inner space is the beginning of integrity. If our inner space says that there is nothing more to listen, if only silence is there, then that is the end of integrity. We have achieved integrity. When we start listening to our inner space, we start integrity and when we listen to only silence from our inner space, we have achieved integrity. As long as we are hearing something from our inner space, it is lack of integrity
if you are in integrity?
Whenever you fail in integrity and you are in a low mood, your mind will say that you never lived with integrity. Whenever you fail in integrity and you are in a low mood, your mind will say that you never lived with integrity. How to know
Your mind will show as if your whole life was inauthentic, irresponsible and lacking in integrity. But when you restore integrity through completion and you become authentic, suddenly your mind will show that your life wa s a l o n g a n d si n c e r e p a t h t owa r d s authenticity and responsibility.
Let integrity become the very air which you breath because it is part of your life. Integrity is the foundation on which our lives are built. Our words create our destiny; they are the life force that fuels us. When we make commitments to ourselves and to others, keeping those promises is not just an option, but a necessity for our lives.
Living on your word means living without your mind. If you want to switch off your mind, you have to live with integrity. Punctuality is not integrity: it is the side effect of integrity. Integrity is living in a space of conscious thinking. Integrity is being in conscious thinking and living it.
FORGETFULNESS IS DUE TO LACK OF INTEGRITY
introduction
When you don't have integrity, the life you want to have around you will change by the hour. In the morning, you will have one idea of a certain kind of life, at noon you will have a different idea. The reality you want to be in, the reality you need to be in and the highest reality are all different.
You will be just pushing and pulling and fighting. Any fight is defeat for all the p a rti e s i n v o l v e d i n t h e fi g h t. A n y reconciliation is victory for all the parties involved in the reconciliation. If there is a fight between you and you, it is because of your lack of integrity. This results in so much chaos, confusion and forgetfulness.
Forgetting happens because of the lack of integrity. When you are not in integrity, you are not one person; you are like a group of people living inside one body. If one person takes over the other person inside you, you forget what the first person was thinking. Complete with yourself and align yourself to integrity. When you align yourself to integrity, suddenly you become one being.
GOALS
To make children aware that when you don't have integrity, the life you want to have around you will change by the hour. And when you are in integrity, only what you say happens in your breathing space.
aSSESSMENT
- What happens when you don't have
- integrity? What happens in any fight? What happens in any reconciliation? When is there a fight between you and yourself? What happens when there is a fight between you and yourself? When does forgetting happen? Why does forgetting happen? What happens when you are one being?
ART OF THE DAY THREAD PAINTING
MATERIALS NEEDED:
Thread of varying lengths
Different poster colors
Plain sheet of paper
Paint pallet
PROCEDURE:
Dip the thread in the paint and place it on the plain sheet of paper. Next fold the paper. While holding the paper firmly on the table with one hand, move the thread in various directions with the other hand, slowly pulling it out from the folded sheet of paper. Repeat with another sheet of paper.
INFERENCE:
Connect children to how with the same thread and same paint color we can make different pictures. The formation of the picture changes with the way we pull the thread. Similarly when we don't have integrity, the life we want to have around us will change by the hour.
