I strongly believe that every citizen of
this country must take up a cause. This is the only way we are going to wake up
to those around us and their needs. Not only that, we also start waking up to
our own abundance which, sadly, we don't ever understand because we are always
looking to acquire the trivia we don't possess because someone ekse has it.
If we can just do this exercise : put down
what we have on one side and what we want on the other . Just examine how many
things that we want are really worth desiring. And examine the worth of what we
already have.
Strangely enough, we never ask for : god,
give me more goodness, more generosity, more compassion for those around me.
Or, please help me be honest and simple in my relationships.
We ask for more of what money can buy. More
power. More fame. People lining up to praise you to the skies for what you
possess. Gautam Buddha left all the pomp and glory , and years later, emerged
as the most glorious of humans.
The moral : Only in letting go do we find
spiritual wealth and glory.
