We send prayers, blessings, and best wishes from Ananda Village.

While we always knew that this planet was a tough place to live, that has been particularly evident lately.  I recently read from The Atlantic:  ”Feelings of numbness, powerlessness, and hopelessness are now so common as to verge on being considered normal.”  In the midst of a remarkably difficult challenge such as the world faces right now, it can be the hardest time to remember that it is through spiritually facing and rising above our challenges that we grow.  While we all do the best we can to deal with the “real world” aspects of this pandemic, we also try to remember that this is not our true home.

The human heart is tender.  The great uncertainty about seemingly almost everything is quite unsettling.  Feeling that every day for months can take a toll.  We aren’t likely to find peace and contentment in worldly things today – as if we ever could.   

What are you doing to support your own well-being?  What help are you getting to deal with this worldly karma we face?  We are all doing what we can on the physical plane.  Tools for spiritual support and growth are also important – and available.  Strengthen your own connection to what matters.  Build the power within you.  Fill your heart with hope.

Blessings,
Nityananda
