Self-Care
Taking a life critical decision
Choices, Decisions and Solutions Part IV
I have to satisfy all: Centaury
Two options: Scleranthus
We always think there are only two views: others and mine. Truth does not lie between these two as it is beyond them. It will not operate until you surrender completely.
Case History
A woman admitted in the hospital for delivery. When the doctors checked her, they concluded, “In the process of delivery, either child or mother – one of them will die. If it is a natural birth, then it will be a stillborn child.” Who do you want to live – child or mother?
This is a position or a situation that provides a choice of two courses of action, both equally unpleasant and unwelcome.
Mother alone knows the pangs of parting with the child. She wants the child to live, because she was carrying the child for nine months. Husband may think, “Let the child need not live, as I want my wife to be alive and then she can beget another child for me.”
When dilemma arises similar to the above situation, the only option left with you is praying and surrendering to Divinity. When the mind shuts off, divinity starts operating. The Bach Flower Remedy Sweet chestnut needs this type of situation to operate. It is the remedy to open you to Divine Grace.
Give Sweet Chestnut to them. Pray to Sweet chestnut, “Please guide us”. You take the remedies too and wait for the miracle to happen. Both child and mother will survive.
What is impossible for human beings is possible for Divinity. When you shut the mind, then the divinity has space to enter there.

Case History
Ramachandran retired from his government services. He got a sum of five lakhs of rupees towards his final settlement.
Ramachandran was always thinking about his office. I gave him Walnut (for transition) and Honeysuckle (not to dwell on the past –thinking about his office) separately.
Ravi a friend of Ramachandran asked him to deposit a sum of five lakhs of rupees in a benefit fund, where the former was working.
Ramachandran said yes. He wrote the cheque and asked his friend to collect it in the evening, as the time then was auspicious.
Around 11 AM Ramachandran heard the news that his uncle has passed away. Therefore, he left for Coimbatore immediately.
“Life events happen without asking us. We are always concerned about our children, our environment and us. However, for divinity every molecule in this Universe is important. It would have preferred Ramachandran not to give the cheque to Ravi.”
He informed Ravi from the bus terminus, that he would come back after two days and give the cheque then.
Nevertheless, Ravi insisted that he had to complete his target ASAP. Ramachandran pleaded his inability to give the cheque, because he has not signed it.
Ramachandran came back after three days, just to realize the closure of the benefit fund due to lack of funds. He mentioned to me that one of the flowers has stopped him from paying the money and losing it thereafter. I told him, “It is Honey Suckle.”
Before taking any important decisions, take honeysuckle, for example, in the case of letting out homes or leasing it out.

The Best Safety Locker in the World – a story
A traveler was carrying lot of money with him. A thief figures that out. He joins him by being friendly with him. They found a traveler’s bungalow to rest for the day. During late hours, the thief searches for the booty, but he could not find it.
Next day morning, out of curiosity he asked the traveler where he has hidden the money. The traveler said that he had kept the money under the thief’s pillow, as he was sure that the thief would not search under his own pillow.
Do not search everywhere else, as the answer is within your own mind. Search within is the key to life. This is the message of Cerato.

Decisions without confusion
Choices, Decisions and Solutions – Part I
When you have any of the tendencies mentioned below:
- You oscillate between the two options
- Have a tendency to postpone things.
- Have the habit of filing your tax returns only on the last day of submission
- You are an 11th hr specialist, and say, “I have time, therefore I will do it later”. In the end, you will become impatient, needing the Bach Flower Remedy Impatiens.
- Have a delayed memory – not able to remember it at the right time. For example, during the exam/interview, will not be able to remember the answers. After the exam/interview is over, you can remember them.
For all above mental states, one needs to take the Bach Flower Remedy Scleranthus.
When we say we have enough time and postpone, then we will never find the time. It will always slip from our hand.
Case History
Tom was feeling frustrated that he was not allocated any (software) projects. He was in IT industry.
He knew that if he was to be like this for some more time, he would be fired from the company.
His typical feeling in the evening would be to leave the company. Though in the morning, while going to the office, he would have high hopes and think “why not I wait for some more time”.
To handle this type of oscillation, (one thought in the morning and the opposite thought in the evening – mood swing) Naran S. Balakumar suggested him to take Scleranthus. He was taking the pills for a few days.
One fine day he decided to inform his boss that he was planning to put in his papers. He reached office just to realize his boss was on leave for a couple of days.
Therefore, Tom decided to wait, and to talk to his boss in person.
On Monday his boss arrived.
He informed Tom that the project they were waiting for so long has been approved and was signed off by the customer. In addition, the client has agreed for Tom to manage the project too.
Scleranthus has saved his job, Tom claims these days.

Beware what you pray for…as you will get it!
Shanthi prayed to Animal Spirit Guide Wolf, “Today I am paying fees for my son’s education. Nobody should be there, so that I can finish my work faster”.
It does what you ask it to do. When she reached her son’s school, nobody was in the counter, including the cashier!
She became Willow, as she thought Wolf did not help her.
She criticized that the cashiers did not know their responsibilities, as they were absent.
She failed to see the notice that it was a holiday for the collection counter at the school (so impatient!).
So be careful in forming the intention, as you will get exactly what you want!
Restless leg syndrome and Hyper Tension
The restless leg syndrome can be healed by Bach Flower Remedies AGRIMONY and IMPATIENS.
The body is trying to remove the tension by shaking the legs. He is not opening up by discussing the problem and revealing it. Where else it will go?
This will turn into hyper tension. When problems are buried inside, it will come out as hyper tension.
This is due to expectation of society, which says, ‘whatever problem you have, you have to smile and face it’.
On the contrary, we have to show our feelings.
This attitude is also expressed in the form of, ‘I don’t want to disturb others’
