What happens in heaven when we pray.

WHAT HAPPENS IN HEAVEN WHEN WE PRAY?

This is one of the nicest messages I have rcvd and is so true:
I dreamed that I went to heaven and a Baba Ji(GURU) was showing me around. We walked side-by-side inside a large workroom filled with Sewadars. Baba Ji stopped in front of the first section and said, ' This is the Receiving Section. Here, all petitions to GOD in prayer are received.

I looked around in this area, and it was terribly busy with so many
Sewadar's sorting out petitions written on voluminous paper sheets and scraps from people all over the world.

Then we moved on down a long corridor until we reached the second section.

Baba Ji then said to me, "This is the Packaging and Delivery Section. Here, the graces and blessings the people asked for are processed and delivered to the living persons who asked for them." I noticed again how busy it was there. There were many Sewadars working hard at that station, since so many blessings had been requested and were being packaged for delivery to Earth.

Finally at the farthest end of the long corridor we stopped at the door of a very small station. To my great surprise, only one Sewadar was seated there, doing nothing. "This is the Acknowledgment Section, Baba Ji quietly admitted to me. He seemed embarrassed." How is it that there is no work going on here? ' I asked.

"So sad," Baba Ji sighed. "After people receive the blessings that they asked for, very few send back acknowledgments".

"How does one acknowledge God's blessings? " I asked.

"Simple," Baba Ji answered. Just say, "Thank you, GOD. "

"What blessings should they acknowledge?" I asked.

"If you have food in the refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof overhead and a place to sleep you are richer than 75% of this world. If you have money in the bank, in your wallet, and spare change in a dish, you are among the top 8% of the world 's wealthy. ""
if you get this on your own computer, you are part of the 1% in the world who has that opportunity.."

"If you woke up this morning with more health than illness ... You are more blessed than the many who will not even survive this day. "

"If you have never experienced the fear in battle, the loneliness of imprisonment, the agony of torture, or the pangs of starvation ... You are ahead of 700 million people in the world."

"If you can attend your Temple without the fear of harassment, arrest, torture or death you are envied by, and more blessed than, three billion people in the world."

"If your parents are still alive and still married ...you are very rare."

"If you can hold your head up and smile, you are not the norm, you're unique to all those in doubt and despair......"

Ok, what now? How can I start?

If you can read this message, you just received a double blessing in that someone was thinking of you as very special and you are more blessed than over two billion people in the world who cannot read at all.

Have a good day, count your blessings, and if you care to, pass this along to remind everyone else how blessed we all are ....

ATTN: Acknowledge Dept.
"Thank you God, for giving me the ability to share this message and for giving me so many wonderful people to share it with. "

Past and future are in the mind only

I am dying into your mystery, and dying, i am now no other than that mystery. I open to your majesty as an orchard welcomes rain, and twenty times that.

Jalaluddin Rumi *

Past and future are in the mind only - i am now.

Nisargadatta Maharaj *

In the present moment the whole past and the future is hidden. It contains the whole universe - past, present, future. Understand the present moment, and you have understood the whole phenomenon of eternity.

Osho *

Present-moment living, getting in touch with your ''now'', is at the heart of effective living. There really is no other moment you can live.

Wayne Dyer*

“Man has but three events in his life: to be born, to live, and to die. He is not conscious of his birth, he suffers at his death and he forgets to live.”
