Inner Silence, Balance, Stability

Life is all about balance. If you have no balance then there is no stability in your life. The key is to seek always a fine balance between the passion of activity that is creative and transformative with the inner silence that is contemplative and reflective. Very few people actually achieve this dynamic balance. Those who act with passion tend to be almost completely in the physical mode and have limited self-discipline. Those who develop their inner self through meditation and other practices may become so inert that they fail to engage in activities to benefit others and motivate themselves. The key is to balance those two aspects of your life. You must have mercy on yourself and others when you get out of balance. Never become frustrated, but realize that it is a difficult balance. However, it is not impossible. Simply create time periods of each day where you engage in your inner contemplation and then go out and act with passion. This sort of grounding in meditation is what is required to ensure that our actions are based upon the true desire to serve your spiritual mission. This will give you the passion to act successfully in all aspects of your life.
