Purity, Mindfulness, Lessons

There are many lessons to be learned in a person’s lifetime. The key is to always increase your mindfulness of your actions and be aware of how you are interacting with the world and with other souls. When you are aware of your actions you will be able to learn from mistakes and make the adjustments necessary to improve in the future. The key is to always focus on a desire to purify your life. There are numerous examples of great masters who have led pure lives and whose lives have inspired many others to purify their lives. By following in their example of living a pure life and consistently monitoring your own actions you will make a great deal of progress during this lifetime. However, the quest for purity does not mean that you hide from the reality of life and simply try to remain sheltered. If you do this you will make little progress and have no impact on others. Instead, again following the example of the masters, you must be anxious to get out into the real world and interact with all types of people. If you maintain your conscious awareness of your standard of purity then you will not have to worry about being negatively influenced by others. Instead, let your desire for purity be your protection and your inspiration for others.
