Our intentions work wonders.
Our intentions are like the seeds of plants, from which whole plants emerge. So, seeds are not only the tiniest things in our hands, but they are capable of evolving into huge plants, provided they are placed in the right place and environment to germinate.
Our intentions determine our actions. Our intentions are completely internal processes, while our actions are visible to all outsiders. People cannot trace our intentions, but they are aware of what we do, even silently.
Our intentions start taking shape in early childhood, and they continue to be formed, deleted, reformed, partly altered, and designed like geometrical fractals.
Some people are money-minded. It means they devote full time and energy to earning more and more money to add physical worth. Their intentions are crystal clear, and they are appreciated by friends and strangers who have the same intentions. This phenomenon explains the power of intention in any phase of our lives.
This process takes a turn only when such people find no end to it and a straight miss of peace and happiness in this faulty struggle in adulthood and onward.
The moot point is the right kind of intention. No doubt, our intentions are multicoloured. When we prefer to be concerned with a nuclear family and extra levels of comfort, our purpose of living is one-directional. We, as humans, need to be multi-directional.
Once we choose to be multidimensional, we can be like that without any hassle. Now, our intentions are to do good for the people, starting small and stretching it to make it big. Thus, our focus is diverted and amplified from money to mankind. The distance between these two intentions is easy to state but difficult to measure.
Even at a personal level, there are ample opportunities to grow in whatever occupation we are in. It is to scale up in knowledge, awareness, and understanding and to be curious to know the mysteries of nature all around us. This is purely a function of our intentions.
Signs of nature are everywhere we look, but we ignore them. We don’t bother to identify our roles in the spectrum of bio and non-bio diversity and are not interested in ascertaining how they are beneficial to mankind. See in the records of our ancestors what they have done at the cost of their lives for their progeny and future beings.
There is no need for a lab to check our own intentions. We can do it ourselves any day, at any moment, just by reflecting on our thought processes. It is not an uphill task. Just ask why I am doing business. Whether it is for livelihood alone or livelihood plus serving mankind, intention has a lot of meaning for those who reflect.
When we touch the lives of average sections of the masses in particular, it becomes a legacy that is undeniable, even by opponents of those principles. There are more opportunities to work for the well-being of people at the microlevel and in remote places. We are talking about webs and nets, but a considerable section of people are not getting drinkable water or adequate food items, even today. This is the gap that needs the attention of kind people. And kindness is a function of intentions.
We need to discover many more things at the macro level that are essential for humans. These discoveries are forcing us to believe that nature is full of resources for all creatures, visible and invisible. However, priority demands that we work more on basic necessities, including smiling on the faces of deprived classes.
Our intentions take up most of our time every day. Correction of intentions is included. How our minds are programmed in childhood plays a decisive role in adulthood until old age happens. They need to be purified at all stages of our lives. This is happening to people of understanding.
