Zulfiqar Meghani Pakistan ============================================ Dear Robert, I hope my note finds you well. I want to express to you my gratitude and my appreciation of the Holistic Harmony course which I have been taking with you. Throughout this program, I have experienced great insight into my being and my life purpose as a direct result of the intense course content and the methodology that is used for ease of understanding. The questionnaires provided have enabled me to see myself clearly and to see where all the experiences in my life (what I used to consider challenges) are ones that I have attracted to myself for healing parts of myself and for my own evolution. I have been able through this course to heal some behavior patterns I had learned from my childhood experiences. My inward journey has been challenging and rewarding for me....and your program made it easier for me to comprehend the complexities within me and about life itself. Christina, USA ============================================= THE PSYCHOLOGY OF GRATITUDE ============================================= By Robert Elias Najemy Few realize that gratitude is the key to happiness, abundance and spiritual development and thus to freedom. Most experience more pain and resentment concerning what they do not have rather than gratitude for what they do have. When we worry and complain about what we do not have or what is not as we would like it to be, we automatically loose awareness, appreciation and enjoyment of all that we have and take for granted. We are less free to enjoy what we have. A short research into the nature of the human condition on this planet would cure our mistaken focusing on what we do not have rather than feeling blessed for what we do have. According to statistics circulating on the internet (which I cannot prove or disprove, but seem likely to be true) if you are reading this you can probably count yourself among the blessed and lucky on this planet. Here are some of those numbers that should make us realize how blessed we are. 80% of our brothers and sisters on this planet live in poor living conditions. 70% are illiterate 50% are uneducated 1 % have computers. 1% have higher education If you have a reasonably healthy body you are in a better situation than the one million persons who are ill and will leave their bodies in the next seven days. If you are not living in war or in prison or in hunger, then you are much luckier than the 500,000,000 who are living in such conditions. If you have food, clothing, a home and a bed, then you are in a better position than 75% of the souls incarnated on this planet. If you have a bank account and money in your pocket, then you are among the lucky top 8% of humanity. So much of what we have taken for granted, simply is not so for most of the humans on this planet. There are so many souls living without much of what we could not imagine not having. Gratitude is the acknowledgment of the love that we are receiving from the Universe in the form of loved ones, belongings, comforts and abundance of all forms. Acknowledging the abundance we already have is the first step towards attracting more. If we are ungrateful for what we have or are unhappy, complaining or bitter, then we are sending out into the universe a negative message, which attracts more negativity, more of what we do not want and less of what we want. No one enjoys an ungrateful person. No one is inspired to give more to an ungrateful person. Neither is the divine or the universe. Gratitude increases with spiritual development. As we grow in consciousness, we naturally feel gratitude for the small things such as a breeze on a warm day, clean water to drink, good friends. As we evolve and learn to trust more deeply in the wisdom of the unfolding events in our lives as opportunities in our spiritual growth process, then we even begin to feel grateful for initially difficult or unpleasant events or situations. We are grateful towards person who might test our love, forgiveness, self-acceptance or understanding, for they are giving us invaluable opportunities to let go of our fears and ego and remember our true spiritual nature, and of course, their spiritual nature. We can even learn to feel grateful for physical and economic problems that also test our inner sense of security and self-worth. Gratitude is directly related to love and happiness. We experience love when we feel grateful and grateful when we feel love. The same is true for happiness. We are happier freer beings when we acknowledge how lucky and blessed we are. You would not be reading this if you did not already have enough security and abundance to be able to have the book and enough time free from the challenge of survival to sit and read these pages. Otherwise you would be searching for safety, food, shelter and other basics needs. We need to discover ways to remember all that we have and get into the habit of feeling grateful many times daily. One way is the gratitude rock mentioned in the book and movie "The Secret". It could, however, be any object with which with we come into contact many times throughout the day such as a stone in our pocket, a "gratitude bracelet" a "gratitude chain" around our neck. Alternatively or additionally we can place a sign on our desk, mirror, TV or refrigerator; something that will cause us to remember all that we love and are grateful for. We can set up as system of being reminded by a sound from our watch or mobile or computer. Or a specific place that we pass a number of times daily that would cause us to remember. Or we can connect gratitude with a specific activity such as brushing our teeth, so that all the time you we brushing we are thinking of all that we can feel grateful for. The more we do it, the more it becomes a very powerful habit. This is a feeling that transforms our lives. By feeling grateful for all that we have - even what is sometimes initially unpleasant - we are transformed into happy beautiful beings. When we are happy and grateful, we attract people. We are pleasant to be with, We are easier to love, because we love more easily. We attract more positive realities from the universe. Gratitude is the one most important energy we can emit when seeking to attract what we desire. The secret is to feel gratitude while imagining that we already have what we want to manifest. This sends out a very positive energy into the universe, which attracts what we need. We start by feeling grateful for what we already have and then imagine what we want to manifest and feel gratitude that we already have it. This is the secret of attraction and manifestation.. I would suggest that you make a "gratitude list" and have it next to your bed where you can add to it and read it every morning before getting out of bed and / or every evening before sleep. While making your list consider some of the following as created by two persons (one male and one female) who did the exercise. As you read this list, remember that even Kings and queens did not enjoy many of these sources of pleasure and security 150 years ago. After reading the following list, totally ignore it and make your own as it flows from your heart. For my parents who supported and cared for me until I was able to fly on my own and then let me free. For my siblings with whom I have shared and experienced so much. For my and all children who give me such joy with their innocence and wonder. My life partner with whom we mutually support each other and share in life's challenges - and even more so life's joy and laughter. For previous friends and lovers with whom I have shared and learned. My relatives, friends and acquaintances with whom I have shared friendship. Coworkers, employers and employees, with whom I have shared the common goals of our work environment. (I am grateful to all of the above mentioned souls with whom I have chosen in this life to have a special relationship, not only for those positive moments but also for those moments where their behavior has given me the opportunity to see my fears, attachments and weaknesses and to learn to put myself in the other's position and to understand, forgive and love.) For my eyes and the ability to see and derive so much pleasure from this beautiful world. For my ears and the ability to hear so many pleasing sounds.
