How can you live life to its fullest and enjoy every moment when you are scared of death and know that every moment you grow older, you are closer to death?

A friend of mine had a heart attack several years ago. Typically, like many others with that experience, he spent months bound in a web of fear. Would the next moment be his last? When would “the big one” arrive?

One day he took a long look at the paralyzed state of which fear had left him. He was but half alive. There was only dread.

This is not the way I want to live, he thought.

It had finally dawned on him that the heart attack had not altered his life expectancy one iota. The day before the attack, he was destined to live until he died. The day after the attack, he enjoyed the very same destiny.

So he became the “What, me worry?” kid.

For starters, have your nutrition levels checked. Some deficiencies may cause a despondency like yours. Or see what health services are available at, say, www.weightandwellness.com.

We are here to learn. The Mᴀʜᴀɴᴛᴀ will help you leave your fear behind.

What’s the secret of staying in balance?

The secret of a balanced life is to live each moment in the right spiritual frame of mind.

When something appears to go wrong, look for the lesson in it for you, instead of finding fault with anyone else or even yourself.

So much warring in the world and personal challenges going on. I can barely keep up with my life. How can I find a little more peace and balance in my life?

Lin Yutang was a very popular philosopher in America during the 1930s and 1940s. He said, in effect, “Let one thing go.” You’ll find this very helpful. Because karma has speeded up in these times. It’s part of the purification of earth. This is all on a spiritual track. Even though we look around and see the many wars that have flared up recently, they’ve always been there. At any given time, there are always forty or more wars going on between nations or tribes.

We have all these things pulling on us today.

If at some point you just say, “I’m going to let one thing go,” that helps.

The second saying I’d like to pass on is “Don’t store stress.” This came from the oldest woman in the world. She lives in Japan. Someone asked her, “How do you live to such a nice age, as you have?” The woman answered, “Don’t store stress.”

I like the phrase “don’t store stress.” It gives the image of something very much like a battery. A battery that is fully charged, but then has a charger hooked up to it, will overcharge and ruin itself.

You don’t want that to happen to you.

So let one thing go, and don’t store stress. Let it go.

I have always been afraid of making mistakes. I can’t seem to let go of this attitude. Can you help?

Learning means making errors. Those who are learning spiritually make errors just the way anyone does when he is growing.

I don’t mind an error as long as the individual benefits from it, picks up the pieces, and goes on—a wiser individual.

What’s the first thing I should do when a problem presents itself? I always feel worried and stressed out.

We ask for divine help when we need it, but not when the situation is within our own power to resolve. Too often we have the feeling that no matter what comes up, there must be an easy way out. Instead of using our God-given creative abilities to figure out a way to overcome the problem, we want someone else to take care of it. We are actually cheating ourselves as spiritual beings.

A person who is operating at his absolute best will ask, What resources has Divine Spirit put at my disposal so that I can solve the problem myself? By doing this, he knows that he is exercising his spiritual muscles.
