Ocean Of Abundance

I love the visualization of standing at the sea shore looking out at the vast ocean and knowing that this ocean is the abundance that is available to me....


Rejoice in other's successes, knowing there is plenty for us all. 
There is a natural rhythm and flow of life. Things come, and things go. It is good for, when something goes, it is only to make room for something new and better.

Rejoice in the abundance of being able to awaken each morning and experience a new day. I am glad to be alive, to be healthy, to have friends, and to be creative.
Visualize standing at the sea shore : this ocean is the abundance that is available to all of us. Check your hands and see what sort of container you are holding : is it a mere teaspoon, a glass, a paper cup, a tumbler, a pitcher, a bucket, a wash tub,or maybe a pipeline connected to this ocean of abundance, or maybe your soul?
Compliments are gifts of prosperity: accept them graciously with a smile, and say "thank you", and return it so that the giver feels as though he or she too, has received a gift . Keep the  flow of good going.....

It is interesting to just look around us and see, that no matter how many people are there and no matter what kind of container they have, there is plenty for everyone. We see reality staring at us, and the sea roaring at us loud and clear : you cannot rob another, and they cannot rob you, and in no way can you drain the ocean dry. Isn't it wonderful to have so much abundance?

Why don't we release our jealousy, our inadequacies, our feeling of lack and realize that:

There is plenty for all of us. We don't want someone else's good. We want to have our own good. The ocean seems to say, "your container is your consciousness, and it can always be exchanged for a larger container." The choice is right within each of us.

  16. Hi Rama,

    Very lovely post,very motivating,very inspiring.

    I am reading your post today, Sunday after noon, with a cup of black tea. When you said look at the container, I looked at the tea cup.Very small I thought.

    Most people like me hold small containers which doesn't hold much. I would like to be the ocean holding big thoughts,generous thoughts, kind thoughts, forgiving thoughts,understanding thoughts, appreciative thoughts and spread happiness all around.

    You have written a magnificent post with lovely photos.

    Have a wonderful Sunday,
    Joseph
