I have a friend who has a difficult relative who has been disturbing the peace in their family for some time.
We all have people that disturb us, right?
Well, I have found that there is only one solution for this problem and it works absolutely 100 percent of the time. Not only that, it will absolutely turn poison into medicine in your life. Seriously. I guarantee it. It works every single time.
Today I went to the meeting here in Chicago with Danny Nagashima. It was great. I saw Danny last week in Los Angeles, and it was great to hear his lecture on the Treasure Tower today. He's so animated, so humble, so alive! If you get the chance to see him DO!!!
And there was an experience that included a really great thought. I have said before that the ONLY way to solve any relationship issues is to chant for the other person's happiness. I have done this so many times and gotten amazing results. One of two things either happens. Sometimes the person and I just fall in love in a really great way, and we end up having an unexpectedly great relationship. OR, they leave my environment. Either way, I concentrate on really, sincerely chanting for their happiness.
In today's experience, the person said "Chant that their Buddha Nature hears YOUR Buddha Nature." And I thought "Yes!" That's it exactly.
Why does chanting for another's happiness have such deep significance in our lives? It's because our lives and the lives of every other person on the planet, are interconnected. We are all one life. Science is proving this over and over. Nothing exists in a vacuum. When I chant for another person's happiness, I also chant for my happiness, and I do my human revolution. Just by transcending my anger at another, and chanting for their happiness....it is making a huge cause!
And you can do this in all instances.
Last night my friend was telling me about this "evil" person in his life. I understand that she has been a huge disappointment and caused a lot of pain. I said that chanting for her happiness was the only answer and he said "But she's just evil." And I said that she is a reflection of his own life...part of his karma that he needs to change...and that all life is interconnected. Her suffering is what is causing her "evilness", and he can chant for her happiness and it will raise his life-condition and change the dynamic of their entire family. In the end....he may look back at this time and say "Thank You!" to her for helping him do his human revolution. And, to my great happinness, he agreed to chant for her. I will join him in is prayer.
I also reminded him that he is not asking anyone or anything for favors or blessings when he chants. He is only summoning the power of the universe that is rightfully HIS. That power is rightfully ALL OF OURS. And he needs to make a determination towards the happiness of his whole family.
This type of prayer is karma changing. This is what human revolution is all about. This is the real stuff...the hard stuff....and the BEST STUFF for our lives.
I challenge you to change the dynamic between you and someone you have problems with. You can do it. We can all do this.
If you have a benefit write me! I want to hear! If you want me to share it with the other readers let me know!

Not for the first time, you have posted on a subject at the exact right moment I needed to read about it - so thank you.
ReplyDeleteIn fact, in this instance, without quite consciously knowing it, I was waiting for this for the last couple of days, suspecting that some sort of guidance would come up in this area.
I also have a relative like this. I certainly wouldn't describe this person as "evil" (Well, perhaps in my weaker moments.) but she is certainly very difficult - stifling, endlessly judgemental, negative, complaining, manipulative and destructive.
Sometimes I think of her like a Dementor from Harry Potter, just sucking all the joy out of a room... And she can be a significant drain on my practice at times, one of the elements in my life I need to battle through.
I have chanted for her happiness before, and truly wish she was (It would make my, and several other people's lives far more pleasant.) but will now redouble my efforts on account of your blog.
So again thanks.
