Love
Many years ago people were in tune with nature. Nature’s harmony and human happiness were considered as one. They observed that what happened outside of us, was already happening within. But now, with time and technology, we have lost touch with this awareness. As our culture evolves into this current era, we suffer the separation from having worked with the land, understanding natures rhythm and a dependency on nature for her sustenance. As we modernize, we have moved away from that harmony. The outer world has risen and taken precedence in our life, we look for solutions instead of awareness. We can all benefit from a more honest and deeper approach to life. If we can re connect with the harmony of nature, while remaining a part of the evolution of humanity, we will be able to celebrate both worlds, inner and outer harmony.
Personal Harmony is a natural way of living and offers wisdom that is all around us. That wisdom is profound yet simple. Nature is the keeper of those Sacred laws and now they can be yours. The forest, the ocean, the sky, species, rocks, plants, animals and insects all have a voice. It requires silence and wisdom to hear it and it is here that this specific learning will impact your lifestyle; It will help you create harmony in your work, stimulate changes in your environment, direct the exercises you do and help create the depth and silence that sustains harmony within you.
Personal Harmony comes from within. Nature holds the key to the magnificent story of life. Nature is the life found around you. Your life and work can become in tune with nature. Nature is surrounding you every moment and you can witness her beauty in every breath.
The appetite for harmony is born within every human heart. The paths to it vary widely. The laws of nature are transparent. They don’t compete with religion, culture or anything. They just stand as a testimony to the order that lies beneath. Order is the awareness of a great mystery. The person who knows this mystery understands the beauty of life.

Personal Harmony - How do i klnow if i am living in harmony or not?
How do I know if I am living in harmony or not?
For a business executive, life may be harmonious if the cash is flowing, clients are happy and the future is rosy. Ask a devout Buddhist and of course they will define harmony as peace and non violent action. Ask a fundamentalist terrorist and the answer will be different, they may even define harmony as the elimination of a whole race of humanity.
So it is with some trepidation that we, in this work, declare some sort of universal definition of Personal Harmony. But we do so regardless.
Personal Harmony is a journey. On such a journey every human squanders most of their life. Eating the fruit of forbidden trees hoping to circumvent the troubles and strife life brings. Personal Harmony is the hidden quest of all humanity. Defined as “the calling of the Soul” Personal Harmony becomes the indiscrete motive for existence, peace of mind, happiness.
The one who finds Personal Harmony does not do so, as most think, by quenching their thirst. Nothing of the sense ever satisfied the Soul. So the appetite that drives our external life actually comes from within. Such an appetite will never be satiated and this realization drives us on an inner search for Personal Harmony. And it’s illusive.
The inner world gains it’s harmony by attunement. The laws for this inner attunement are written for us long before scribes attempted to give credit for wisdom. The nature of all existence has stamped upon it the keynotes of the harmony of life. Nature holds the key and she is there, everywhere, waiting for you to discover her. Although the laws of nature may gratify the intellect, it is really their ability to free your mind to see order and beauty that can bring harmony to the heart. When our expectations and thinking match rhythm with natural law, we begin to work with Nature rather than against it.
Summary
1/ We must separate the inner World from the outer
2/ The inner world cannot be satisfied by dogma, philosophy or materiality
3/ The outer world seeks things in the pursuit of growth
4/ Personal Harmony cannot come while the seeker seeks.
5/ Until beauty can be felt it is not harmonious
6/ Beauty exists in all things, events and people.
7/ Peace of mind, health of the body are the external testaments to the levels of internal harmony.
8/ Disharmony is the breakdown between human thought and natural law. The fight can never be won
9/ Internal Harmony is possible only in so much as it becomes a process not a destination.
10/ Contentment is a first step. Learning that there is nothing about you to change, or that can be changed.
11/ To hone the personality of the heart is the real key to personal harmony
