Blessings


You can sit anywhere and ask for blessings in your mind, and you will receive blessings.
You may ask me how is that possible.

Tell me, how does Kama Vasana (lust) get aroused just by thinking such thoughts, isn't it? Hormones are then secreted in excess in the body.
How do you get angry? Just by thinking!
How does hatred come? By thinking about others whom you dislike. You think about those who you don't like and your body begins to quiver.

How does fear come? By thinking!

So, if by thinking, lust can come, anger can come, fear can come, hatred can come, then can blessing also not come just by thinking? Are blessings so ineffective, or do you think that you have to work so hard to get blessings? No! You don't need to do anything. Just by thinking you get blessings. This is how it happens.
So, whenever you feel grateful just think that blessings have certainly come along with it.
