The Tibetians of the Shambala
tradition believe in a concept called Drala by which any space can be made
sacred. Drala is created by the reverence, purity and faith within a space.
When a person treats his office space with reverence and keeps it clean and
sparkling, he attracts Drala into that space. Drala makes that space powerful
and attractive. When he dresses carefully, speaks and acts mindfully, he
attracts personal Drala.
Many are able to do this in their
homes. Indian homes have beautiful white flower patterns drawn at the entrance
to attract Lakshmi, the Goddess of Good Fortune. The atmosphere is further
enhanced by the fragrance of incense and joss sticks.
Certain sounds like that of
mantras or the sound of bells, or wind chimes in a Chinese home, are said to
purify the field.
Steps you can take to welcome
Drala into your life
* Keep your surroundings and
living spaces clean.
* Create beauty in your
surroundings with flowers and crystals
* Let music fill the space.
* Be mindful of what passes your
lips – food and words. Let both be fine and healthy.
* Wash away the dust and dirt,
and wear fresh clothes.
* Enjoy the present moment
