Lesson

Today’s lesson will be on clutter. In order to achieve a clear thinking mind well into a ‘ripe old age’, one needs to be orderly in the outward manifestation of the mind, which is reflected in the environment in which one lives. To achieve this, one needs to become aware of the clutter in one’s mind like hopscotch thinking flitting from one thought to the other, and notice where perhaps the brain-gaps are and where you tend to forget things. Especially when one grows older, brain-cells tend to deteriorate and close down through dis-use. To avoid this, it is best to always practice positive thinking and not to harbor any ill thoughts towards anyone, for these retard the clear thinking process.

It is also needful to pay careful attention to nutrition; whether it is wholesome and alive with all the nutrients -- the vitamins and minerals they have been created with. Wholesome thoughts and wholesome foods make for an easier connection with the spirit-force in the body. Avoid cluttered thinking with over-much dwelling on the past and perchance harboring regrets. The past is past, and is a done deal. Energies are far better spent by being in present-centered awareness, and by cleaning up the immediate environment, which incites a greater relaxation for the mind to engage in higher level thinking.

Life is meant to be a natural progression to a higher evolvement. It is not meant to end up with a diseased mind and crippled body. Great care needs to be taken to prevent this. One always works in the present on the health of the future by developing clean and sound habits of living and eating. I am not talking about stilted and regimented living by rote and ingrained old habits, rather they need your scrutiny too, to see if any of the old ways of doing things have become redundant and no longer serve your highest and best way of living.

Always be open and willing to change, so you can go with the flow and accept opportunities for change. Be willing to walk through a door that opens up to learn something different, it helps to enlarge the mind, and keeps it active and alert. The greatest service you can do yourself is to live life for the highest and greatest good of soul-development. This is achieved when everything else is in harmony and balance, and when mind and body are in an optimum state of health. This is called progress. Humans have the ability to live to the ripe age of 120, even 140, as long as they have uncluttered minds and are nourished with foods which have the life-force in them.
