Who among us wouldn't like to live in abundance? After all, we all wish ourselves abundance of a sort – spiritual, material or perhaps both. So how do we create this around us? Where do we start? Well, first of all – faith. It is our direct link to a universal wisdom. Also, a factor as important, is the ability and will to share our feelings and ourselves with others, in order to allow abundance to engulf us with perfection.
One of the oldest symbols of the Far East which symbolizes purity, wisdom and realization of human potential is the Lotus. This wondrous plant blossoms perfectly out of the murky water and mud of the swamp and symbolizes the possibilities opening in a man's life with plenty of seeds which may strike root wherever they drop. This dance of potential life, spread out with a complete celebration of life and love are a symbol to a constructive and expanding relationship with the environment through opening up to it.
In the water supporting the lotus flower and providing it with life, one can see the "water of emotions" that swirl beneath the flowers and teaches us we must live in abundance which is "washed" in endless flow. If we wish to experience real abundance we must train ourselves to touch others with our lives, to share our feelings, our experiences with those who are near us with power, pleasure, friendliness and a positive approach. The happiness and blesses of each of us do not have to stay contained within us like a seed, but should open like a lotus flower and spread their fragrance to everyone. Not just to our friends but even to complete strangers. If we share our enlightenment, the good and the positive with the other, then we will develop a supportive environment which will create the abundance around and inside us.
The Warrior of light knows that one of the hardest things in training is to bring yourself to remove your defenses, to reveal the soul, and create a solid bridge, even in battle, with your enemy. Only in this way it is possible to create a real connection that allows us to find the optimal response options that lead to the desired results.
While most of us want, in those moments of pressure and coping, to close ourselves up and build walls in order to protect ourselves, but actually this is a sure way to isolate ourselves from each other, the other's desires and what he was going to do. If we do not share the action, we cannot predict the outcome or even what is to come.
Therefore, in conclusion, the ability to share, bridge and maintain high morale and a positive, open mind - this is actually the real power that a person can develop in order to thrive.
