CORONA
The world is going through very testing times. We turn the news on and all we hear about is COVID-19. We look at our social media accounts and all we read, see and hear is COVID-19. We speak to our friends or people we pass in the supermarket and all we ever talk about is COVID-19. Those of us that are still going out to work, speak to colleagues and all we speak about is COVID-19. We go to fill our cars with petrol and the energy around us just feels so negative. Wherever we go and whatever we are allowed to do in these difficult times, there’s only one subject on the lips of the world and we all know what that is!
In such difficult times, it’s imperative that we all remain very positive and remain in high spirits. The virus has taught us all to slow down and appreciate everything we had in the extremely busy but luxurious lives we live in today. It has made the world seem very small to everyone and it has connected us all as one and equals, which we should have always been.
The more negative we are and the more we listen to the negative news, the more this becomes a part of our mind and soul and we begin to fully believe everything we hear. Most of it will always be negative and it will get us down. We’ll pass it on to others and it becomes a vicious circle. All of a sudden, the negative energy around myself, yourself and everybody else becomes drastically negative. The world becomes a very sad and sour place to live in. The more we feel down and upset, the more we are prone to depression, stress and anxiety. When negative energies like these attack our minds, this is when we get prone to illness, disease and viruses.
Mental well being is the most important in such testing times. How can we preserve our health through being mentally strong? There are many ways. Firstly, remain positive by being light hearted, not watching the news as much. Not believing everything the news says. Not to always talk about the virus. Talk about positive subjects. Have a laugh and giggle. Most of all remain in high spirits. When the mind starts to become weak and needs company, remember to meditate. Breathe in through your nose. Exhale through your mouth. Watch your breath. Listen to it and begin to control your thoughts and emotions in that way. Control your mind, don’t let it control you. For those of us who know about Naam meditation, this is the most powerful energy that we can link our mind, body and breath to. No virus can come anywhere near it. The energy of God’s name is too powerful for a virus to even touch.
In these ridiculously hard times, we need to show how we should truly behave as amazing humans and Samaritans of the world. How can we help the elderly and the vulnerable? How can we help our neighbours and our community? How can we support the people around us? The virus has not looked at cast, colour, creed or religion. In the same way, the human should not see cast, colour, creed or religion. There are many organisations now who are sacrificing their own well being and families to help, support and guide the elderly, vulnerable and those in need. Let’s become a part of these amazing organisations, who have empowered themselves with love, compassion, kindness and positive energy to support society and their communities.
It’s very important we carry out the basic measures the government is asking us to carry out however, let’s not Sit there worrying about what is going to happen, because we can’t control what is not in our hands. This is now all in the hands of God and we all need to pull together to make a difference. We are all one and the son’s and daughters of the same father God (Vaheguroo).
Let’s not be the one to spread negative news through social media. Let’s be the one to keep everyone positive and in high spirits so that we can challenge/smash the virus and beat it together as ONE!
Guru Arjan Dev Ji Says, “Sarab Rog ka aukhad Naam”
The Naam is the panacea, remedy to cure all illness and viruses.
Kalyaan roop Mangal gunn gaam”
Singing the glory of God’s name is the embodiment of bliss and emancipation.
Vaheguroo!
