Let go NOT to lose But to be abundant Let go -- yet another term one comes across in the spiritual circle more often. It may not be possible to have a definite description to this word. May be, when we try to relate with a concrete example, we understand its subtle expression better. Lets say, we are on to a "Roller coaster" ride. Now, the person on the ride is gripped in fear, yet wants to go in the ride and experience the thrill. Watch the person, the body goes into a dead state like stiffness, eyes closed mostly and holding tightly to whatever is available. Yes, the person does go through the journey with a dead state. Now, let the turn happen. Imagine the same person becomes aware that there is nothing to hold on and become tight, close the eyes and physically cling to something. Anyways, the journey is happening and infact , people who go in it fearlessly seem to enjoy better and return with a fulfillment. This awareness brings forth the confidence and same person is bac...

Confide in one's own self is confidence. For this to happen, one needs to identify the self. The human being is used to developing confidence in others. Its the outside which lets you know and get the feel of that word, confidence. Actually, the outside either helps to identify the hidden potential or becomes an emptying vessel for emotional confidence. All these aspects take place on the zone of body and mind functioning. To have a complete development in one's own self, the search for wholeness begins. Thats when every aspect and angle of the outside is turned within to derive the same, right within. Not every individual is fortunate to get that exclusive guidance from a human form who knows His Self and who enables you to find your self too. Coming into contact with such Realised beings, you discover a whole lot of missing(misplaced) blocks that are essential to complete the construction. Both the body and mind are meant for attaining the eventual wholeness. Remaining in th...

For what shall i Embrace the bed when sleep refuses To embrace me Dream is an illusion Sleep is a non-reality Embedded grains Inside the mind No bed for the body That houses the grained mind Strangulated within With unknown fear with a loaded mind and an exhausted body Vital breath yet flowing Connecting all to the ONE Birth of darkness No longer haunts me For its light, light Everywhere...

Unless you know to judge well, you can not perform well -- this is our usual understanding while relating to everyday actions in the world. True, we need to know but we need not go for a judgement but be aware of the distinguishing features. Judgement lets one to polarities --good/bad, favourable/unfavourable, light/darkness etc.. In awareness, it just lets us have a clear picture of happening and not happening. There are no emotional negativity associated with the happenings. There are no disappointments in awareness for there is no expectations. We dont say, if the sun rises at 6am -- thats good and if the sun shows up at 7am its bad. We only say, the sun is up or its on the way. In awareness, instead of just two poles, there is also an ever existing possibility. This or that and also there can be both. So, instead of a sharp cut into two pieces, its like a piece with all possibilities at all times. That exactly lets one to view it moment to moment. Contrast to judgement where it...

Full + Fill = Fulfill Wonderfully coined expression! A combination of both finite and infinite, matter and spirit, gross and subtle. Then, why such a term coined? What does it convey? Someone who had tasted that which is already full and still gets filled had named it so appropriately. What a moment it would have been for that being! yes, we too have had many such glimpses of fulfilling moments. Moments which cannot be contained but can only be experienced and gets expanded endlessly. Moments - none of the gross description can reveal its vastness and fullness. It can be experienced with various forms--people, pets or just with nature or even more just with one's own self. When we learn to dwell in the depths of our being, we understand the precious word, fulfilling. Look into a new born babe, wow! what a fulfilling moment! Just an exchange of smile is the sign of communication f...

In this creation, its surprising to notice that all other forms of creation from a unicell amoeba to our beloved ancestor, monkey remain in existence without any attire or accessory . Mankind is the only one who is all prepared with his extra fittings, clothing and awaiting the birth of the new born. The primitive man existed and was in tune with nature with his barest minimal attire. When you look at the body of a man living in forest in tune with nature, it would be shining and glowing. Naturally naked is nature and there is so much to learn, admire and revel in it. The modern day man having accomplished the clothing concept with mankind, doesnot now spare his pets at home. He has created a clown of himself and wants to add his pet to that clown family with the manmade clothes. Fortunately, unlike the man, the pets are yet to have the faculty for realisation if not you would find them demanding for the best just like the kids. Its the human mind, right from birth creates a veil of...

You can do nothing about it you can do everything about it Whats it all about? The way, which had been paved exclusively for you is not a puzzle to solve or a way to mend. It exists as it is and you exist to see it as it is. Caught in a traffic jam, you can choose to get choked or choose to listen to the music in your vehicle. Its the outlook to the present prevailing condition that lets you choose the better for the bitter. Going for the better, the positive attitude is certainly welcoming yet beware of the bitter thats always waiting to make its entry. So whats the use of this living if i can do nothing about the way or the approach to the way? The Masters reveal the answer. The benediction that comes along with this birth to realize the real purpose of living is to know the use of Freewill to know The Self. Neither the positive nor the negative, but being a witness to the ways of life unfolds The Truth. Observe all thats happening around you, observe all thats not happening within y...

You own a car, you are at the driver's seat, you are aware you are presently not at your home and you need to drive down to reach your own home. On the road, with the vehicle, well versed with controls, yet whats that which paves the way for the move? Your jurisdiction stops with your vehicle, you have no say on the traffic or the road to travel. Empty roads, you cruise through in perfect control. More traffic, you slow down to go in pace with the traffic. Road block by people voicing their opinions, agitation, you may probably have to stop the vehicle for a while, wait for the crowd to disperse and then proceed. Road block caused by major accident and traffic being diverted, you have no option but to just turn and go with the flow of the traffic. Its not the journey, the life, but the realization to know, presently, i am not at home and i need to reach my own home that puts you on the road. Once on the road, you need to be aware of your vehicle and be aware of the existing way on ...

Pot making wheel -- have you ever heard a ball of clay walking up to the potmaker , disclosing what it wants to be and then climb up and place itself on the centre of the wheel? A pot is made out of the choicelessness and awarelessness of the clay. The creator prepares the ball of clay, places it at the right time on a spinning wheel, guides the formation in coordination with the speed and shape he wants and eventually at the right time lifts it out from the wheel too to be presented as an item to the world. The whole process is purely happening in the awareness and choice of the maker. The one to be molded needs to become a clay only then it can just be something in this world. Clay doesnot instruct the maker nor has a wish to become this or that. It is just as it is, simply being. We, as humanbeings have entered this world with a definite form, mind full of desires and concepts and yet struggle to become whatever it is. Unlike the clay, when we just surrender ourselves to the Div...
