Traffic Control
During the day we can stop for some moments to reflect (think) and remember to be peaceful and silent. This act of stopping is like putting a brake on the mind.
I observe in what direction my thoughts, words and actions are going and then, if necessary, redirect them (change their direction) or keep moving in the same direction with more clarity (clearness) and focus.
This practice of remembrance is called 'traffic control'. It is a means to refresh, recharge and reorient. When we forget to stop, the traffic of the mind becomes heavy and the driving tense, tiring, stressful and irritating and our mind and nerves seem ready to explode! To prevent all explosions and emotional eruptions, which ultimately destroy or damage our effectiveness, we need to stop. This is one practical use of remembrance.
In Spiritual Service,
Brahma Kumaris
