Belief, awareness, and love are profoundly linked and eternal human aspects. Without them, life would be barren, mindless, and empty. But what are they, and how do we best use them?
Belief, Awareness, and Love: What are These?
Think about belief, awareness, and love. What are these three things? Why do we care about them? How do we best use them?
Belief, Awareness, and Love Live Forever
Deepak Chopra“The universe contains three things that cannot be destroyed: belief, awareness, and love.”
It’s a good feeling to realize that certain things are impossible to destroy. In the face of troubling news accounts of disasters, crime, terrorist attacks, deadly disease outbreaks, and accidents, this can be a welcome comfort. The key to overcoming sadness, paralysis, and fear that bad news tends to trigger is to learn and practice effective coping strategies that include belief, awareness, and love.
Belief Strategies
How do you do that? How do you learn strategies about belief awareness and love? Start by making a list of the beliefs you hold. These may include some of the following:
- Family is paramount.
- Always work to the best of your ability.
- Believe in yourself.
- Integrity and honesty are essential character traits.
- Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
- To give is more important than to receive.
Cultivate Awareness
Next, work on cultivating awareness in everyday situations. It isn’t that you’re asleep, but you may tend to allow your mind to wander. While distraction may prove handy as a temporary antidote to negativity, in the long run, not being present prevents you from making substantive progress toward goals.
How to Become More Aware
Help yourself become more aware:
- Slowing down.
- Take time to reflect on the good things in your life.
- Practice meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises.
- Go for a walk in nature.
- Practice gratitude for your blessings.
Cherish the Experience of Love
Love is perhaps the most misunderstood of belief, awareness, and love, the three things that cannot be destroyed. You might think that because someone dumped you or your spouse left you for another, that love is dead and gone for you. Nothing could be further from the truth.
The fact that you experienced love should remind you that you are capable of this powerfully uplifting and life-affirming emotion. It will come again, often when you least expect it.
Remember These Truths About Love:
- Love is a universal human emotion.
- It helps nurture and continue the human species.
- This powerful emotion is also incomparable, unforgettable, and capable of regeneration time and time again.
