SATSRIAKAL JI,

I am a 22 yr old who just passed her MBBS exams & started with internship as a doctor in civil hospital.now this civil hospital has a bad reputation ( which i feel is sometimes for no reason at all, doctors really work for the patients good & health but one goof up & the local media flashes it in bold letters).There are two reporters always ready with their hidden cameras for whatever they can lay hand on.(just to give you background).
I took medicine only coz my mom wanted me to, but now i feel Blessed that Waheguru gave me the opportunity to reach so many of his beloveds & help them feel better with their sufferings.but recently an incident happened which has made me feel humiliated & unworthy also.I had a 12 hour duty,saw many patients was tired in the evening n so i just put my head down on the desk for some time. I had co-interns with me in the same room who were speaking to each other.And there was no patient at that time in the clinic.I finished my duty & went home.Next day local news channel flashes this picture of mine saying i was sleeping during the duty hours.people asked me about it..i agreed i had my head down but i wasnt sleeping.I actualy dont know am i feeling bad bcoz of what people are going to say about me,or my self esteem is hurt or am i feeling as a victim for a small act of mine..may be what i did was wrong but i feel as if a stigma is there on my abilities as a doctor even before i started my career.my friends adviced me to take it lightly & that it didnt matter much.but i have always been a sincere person & there were others who sometimes ran away from their duty.no one ever catches hold of them. now i feel i have not lived up to the expectation of society,otherwise why would local media channel would do so?I am getting biased answers for all my questions & i request you to give unbiased view.I am very weak emotionally because of my past and want to develop emotional and spiritual strength to deal with such circumstances of life.Please do guide me even if it may seem very trivial to you.

My dear,
Your friends are correct. Take all these happenings with a "grain of salt". There was nothing wrong with what you did. You are being tested, as you said that you are weak in your self confidence. This is your chance to address your weakness.

You are brillient and wonderful and professional and reliable and honest etc. Now project with love and gratitude toward yourself and others. Have gratitude for this opportunity that you have to work on yourself.

Here is an important exercise that will help you throughout your life deal with difficulties.

Every time you feel emotional, weak, misunderstood etc. say OUT LOUD:
" IN THE NAME OF THE GURU I FORGIVE MYSELF AND HEAL MYSELF".
" IN THE NAME OF THE GURU I FORGIVE MYSLEF AND HEAL MYSELF"
"IN THE NAME OF THE GURU I FORGIVE MYSELF AND HEAL MYSELF"
follow this with:
' IN THE NAME OF THE GURU I FORGIVE THEM AND HEAL THEIR PAIN"
"IN THE NAME OF THE GURU I FORGIVE THEM AND HEAL THEIR PAIN"
"IN THE NAME OF THE GURU I FORGIVE THEM AND HEAL THEIR PAIN"

Now that you are feeling so compromised you must do this meditation at least.....3 times a day. Just stop and go deeply and speak and feel the impact of your words and see all the peace it brings to you and others.

You can change the focus of this meditation for other circumstances. The constant is...calling on God and GUru and speaking it out loud and speaking it three times for all involved.

Blessings to you dear one with love,
SKKK
