A Lesson on Desire.

A Thought Adjuster Speaks - Lesson # 56
February 26, 2004.

Let us continue our lessons today with a few words on desire -- actually on the true desires of the human heart -- which are so seldom heard above the din of the world with its stressors, calamities, frustrations and disappointments, besides the many wishes humans entertain in the secret chamber of their hearts, which can include unhealthy, wrong and negative thoughts. In truth and in fact, there are very few truly healthy hearts on this planet, for it is not only the physical heart I am alluding to, but also the mental/emotional and spiritual heart. Health comes first and foremost from the person’s mindset, which also influences everything the mortal mind thinks and acts upon.

It would be a worthwhile exercise to stop and think about your mindset. Is it predominantly happy or sad? What triggers the gamut of emotions? Might there be a chemical imbalance, which needs to be corrected by natural means? Are you stubborn or easy to get along with? Of course, I am only citing a few extreme examples, but these can allow one to consider, because every small thought is not really all that small, as it also influences everything down the line like a domino effect. Your own thoughts can poison you, and they can also make you well. And who does not desire health?

Well then, finally we have arrived at the beginning of our talk. By now it ought to be clear how important it is to, on each day, spend some time in the stillness, as here lies the greatest healing, the greatest upliftment of the human spirit, the greatest nourishment for the mind, body and soul. And finally, the physical system gets a well-deserved chance to unwind. It gives tired nerves a chance to balance out by you taking a breather from the stressors of life, allowing the cellular level of the body responds in kind by lowering the blood pressure. If you persevere in taking this daily exercise, it becomes a most beneficial occasion to take in these ‘spiritual vitamins,’ to finally listen to that Still Small Voice within, which can impart the desires of your heart to you. Your true heart’s desires are peace of mind, oneness experiences with the All That Is, a love infusion, and a desire to ‘do good’ to others, without selfish motivation.

You realize that I am speaking about the purest and sincerest intentions of the heart, as those are the true healers of body, mind and spirit. It is the purest of desires which lead you God-ward and those desires are deeply buried in each heart. It is up to each mortal to discover these desires. So shall life become victorious and well-lived from the celestial viewpoint. All you have to do is ask for a pure heart, soul and mind. Daily persist in this, and over time, in looking back, you will notice how this has changed you for the better.
