Realized Individual of the Week
The Conditions of a Life Lived Well
Meher Baba
Realized Individual of the Week
Art of Life
Through daily objectives, this program is designed to help individuals develop their creative acumen, receptiveness to beauty, intellectual measure, and capacity for love. Recommended as a 3, 7, or 21-day condition, simply commit yourself to a specific time period and follow the instructions for each day.
Definition of Condition
Condition in the broader sense refers to the conditions we create for our own happiness or misfortune according to how we make use or make waste of each moment, day, occassion, etc. The term can also be used to describe a concentrated push in effort and attitude to raise the quality of life (for one's own sake or for others) through a clear-set objective which includes specific terms for a set course of time. (i.e. I will undertake a 21-day "letter writing" condition where each day I will write a letter to someone I haven't talked to in years.") The most important thing to remember is that the more sacred a condition is honored, the more sacred will be your results.
Further Details
1.This program embodies the collected wisdom of various spiritual and practical sources, and holds benefit for the atheistic, agnostic, and religious alike. Its aim is to sensitize the desensitized: those seeking strength against the casualness of a "routine life". It achieves this through daily assignments which are specifically designed to encourage the "creative application of love".
2. It is important that when you decide to undertake a condition for a certain time period, that you commit yourself to accomplishing the objectives each day for the entire course--even if (especially if) the day's mission is particularly challenging or out of your comfort zone. This is in order to acheive the best result from the condition and a concluding sense of accomplishment that is free from self-accusation. If it is impossible for any reason to participate in a day's objective, simply design one for yourself or search through the archives here for alternative ideas.
