In our everyday life, we use the “Divine power to decide the right” – decide the right, correct & truthful actions going on in the surroundings in our life. Starting from early in the morning when we wake up till the late night until we go to sleep, we come across various categories of situations/ people in our life. Every moment stands as an EMBODIMENT of situation in front of us. Some of such situations have positive while others have negative impact in our basic life. Similarly, some people have positive effect while some other people have negative effect upon our lives. God helps us to increase the Divine Power to Decide the right, correct & truthful actions for ourselves as well as for others.

The Divine Power to Decide the right is the outcome of the Power to Discriminate right over the wrong. After achieving the Power to Discriminate the right, the good & the truth over the wrong, the evil & the falsehood; we reach a stage when we possess the ability to make the most righteous, truthful, pious, evergreen, beneficial decisions. The Divine Power to Decide the right is the ability to assess the options/ alternatives present in front of us, make decisions and perform actions which result in the betterment of the true self and others.

 This is the power of truth, the power to choose truth, to stand alone in that truth no matter what happens or who accompanies you. It is directly connected to the Power to Discriminate and takes Power to have much of the clarity/ clear vision to know the truth, right & good. Often, we know & understand the truth, right & good but due to lack of The Divine Power to Decide the right, we are unable to stand along, follow and act as per the truth, right or good. 

This power requires me to be completely free from any attachment and be impartial to the outcome of the right decision. I have to take the decision, follow through the action and surrender the outcome/ result of the impartial action upon the Almighty. I need not disturb myself thinking about the expectations of the result/ outcome. I should not have any expectations or intermingle any of my thoughts by thinking about the result. In such case, I create a sense/ feeling of worry, doubt, confusion or even disagreed negative result. I need to understand and imbibe within the true self (Human Soul) that whatever decision I make, after attaining the Power to Discriminate, will be destined (as per my destiny), fortunate enough (lucky) and accurate (perfect as per Divinity). The best outcome will definitely come in front of me and I will have a lot to learn, earn and benefit from such destined clear result.

Act Righteous

The Divine Power to Decide the right allows me to take and make quick, clear, accurate and unbiased / impartial decisions consistently. I am able to make myself free from the attraction and influence of emotions and opinions of others. I am able to adopt a clear understanding of what is right from what is morally wrong. This needs clarity of thoughts. Such clarity of thoughts is obtained and all clouds of negativity is removed when there is harmony of the mind and intellect with a detached vision. I need to keep myself away from all negative perspectives which forces me to look at the defects or shortcomings or weaknesses or the negative actions present within others. I need to assign myself the position of a solution-provider and not stand as a problem- creator. I need to stand as an observer and see/ observe the problem rather I need not jump directly into the problem and get myself inter-twinned with the problem. Always stand aback from a position outside the problem. As when we stand on top of the mountain, the city below looks small and friendly. Similarly, stay outside of the problem and discriminate the actions which will help in making the right decision. Also, when we are lost in any forest, we cannot even see the trees, we keep on revolving round and round and keep on arriving at the same place. This happens because we lose control over ourselves and concentrate on the problem and do not take the hassle-free pain to look outside towards the solution. 

Let's discuss how to use & apply the Divine Power to Decide the Right in our everyday lives/ day to day situations:

Dear Readers, we all have heard the story of a man who lost his gold finger ring under the shade of a tree during the daytime. He searched for the finger ring at many places but could not find it. Later on, when it got dark, he recalled that he might have lost the finger ring under the shade of the tree. After reaching there, he found there was complete darkness and he could not find anything under the tree. Nearby, there was a street light lamp post. So, the man under stress & tension without thinking much, started searching for his gold finger ring under the street light with the hope that he might get his gold finger ring under the light of street light. Basically as a layman, he did so because he thought it would be better to search at a place where there was light instead of the place which was complete dark due to lack of source of proper light. But, the exact place was only under the tree - irrespective of the fact whether under the tree- it was complete darkness or lightened up. In case of complete darkness, it was the moral responsibility of the man to lighten up the place and then move on to search for the ring. (Here, precious gold finger ring is nothing but "Peace of the Human Soul").

As readers and observers, we are reading the story, listening to the problem, observing the situation (problem) by staying outside the problem. Now, we can easily judge the situation since we are detached from the situation or problem. Even small aged children can say that the person was doing wrong act by searching for his gold finger ring under the light of the street light. Firstly, he should search the ring under the tree-shade. Even, if it had got dark, he should light up a candle or a matchstick or any torch or any other source providing light. With the help of a proper source of light, he can easily find the precious gold finger ring under the tree.

What does this story imply in everyone’s life? 

 Summary – I need to use the Divine Power to Decide the righteous act for me after judging the right, truthful & correct action.
