I have found that creating emotional
distances with people who are a part of your life spells some measure of
weakness and fragility of the mind which may not want to accept its faulty
thinking and dark areas.
Spirituality speaks of being simple and
honest, precisely because both traits are to be internalised into the self
first.
Honesty asks a direct question and in a
simple way. “ are your being honest with yourself?” People think that honesty
means revealing private matters to others. Absolutely not !
If we want to live within our supreme
consciousness, we need to acknowledge with complete honesty, what we need to
change within ourselves. It is a part of self-speak. Nothing to do with others.
Secondly, the more simple we are in our
self speak exercise, the more effective we can be in accepting tge need to
change and the change itself.
I smile with compassion when I see people
obviously uncomfortable about their dark spaces and running away from them. It
never helps ! On the contrary, it complicates your inner self and your
relationships as well.
There is so much to study, analyse and
internalise by meditating on it.
As someone said, unfortunately, there will always be less thinkers who take the trouble to look for their “ is ness”. Others will just hang between the illusory and maybe, mere glimpses of the actual reality.
The awareness, the determination to go
beyond the seen takes time, perhaps a few lives , provided we set the seeker
goals in stone.
So be it !
