“ What do we expect from life and from
people ?” We can all go ballistic about what we expected and what we didn’t
receive. It is the worst cycle to get
into. It is unending. When you are able to break this only will you be free for
meaningful movement.
It is strange but a fact of experience that rewards are incidental. What we
need to do is our karma , based on certain human principles which give us
respect in our own eyes.
But, what we do is the opposite. Our karma is based on our feelings, our likes,
our prejudices … when this happens, we deviate from our principles and pollute
our karma. We become unsteady. Imbalanced !
The path of principled living should not be given up for anyone because it is
your path of spiritual evolution. No one , however near and dear in this life,
can walk it with you or even help you, except a benevolent and compassionate
guru. Even your children are born through you but are not yours. Their souls
are on a different journey.
Why then do we still use expectations as crutches and are unable to understand
that for whatever good we do here , the points accumulate in the Divine Order ?
Act with good intention and faith and surrender the actions to the Almighty. Do you really think people understand where you are coming from ? Each one of us is too deep for anyone else to understand us. And when they don’t understand, they are bound to ascribe motives.
Meaningless ! It is more our ignorance that
spurs us on, not our wisdom !
