" Believe in yourself "
Believe in yourself. Know that you have the strength, the ability, the courage and the will to transform yourself. The best way to reach this point is through silence, not through logic or intellect, or questions or discussion. So many books have been written, yet people still continue to ask questions. The answers have been given in the scriptures and by different masters and saints, yet still, we ask for the reasons, the why, when and how. We ask the same questions over and over again, even though we have been given the answers.
Learn in silence about the mysteries of life by understanding and believing that you have the strength, the courage and the ability. You can make a barren piece of ground into a flowering garden. The method you can choose yourself.
If water is not available nearby, you will have to dig a well or a channel from a nearby river. You find your method. You have to find the means to procure the right seeds and protect them by providing whatever is necessary for their growth.
It becomes easy and simple if you believe in yourself and has will and sincerity. It is no use sitting down with your head in your hands, thinking, “God, what shall I do with my patch of land? It is full of rocks and there is no water nearby.” That fatalistic attitude is the road to hell. That is the biggest obstacle one has to overcome.
The attitude of faith is the stairway to heaven. So never be a fatalist. Always have faith in yourself.
