The light of truth

As I look back, I realize that all of us programmed so much negativity in our minds that they become reactive patterns which are very difficult to break. But, I said “difficult”, not impossible. When we look at ourselves in the mirror while getting ready to go out, we make sure we are looking good. We take extra effort to camouflage the irregularities wherever present in the body. However, our mental irregularities don’t have any mirror except our own conscience. And we think we can conceal them with some artistry. Not so, though. Such energy projects outside as well and is noticed. It is the height of ignorance to think we can get away with anything impure in thought, word or deed. The only way is to remain steady in our true selves, never mind the reactions from the outside world. Just watching and not reacting. Yes, when we want something, then reactions from others matter. Otherwise, why is it so important that the world should like us, appreciate us, felicitation us? Can we do our own karma in the light of truth only and just because it makes us joyful? No more, no less! Why depend on anyone for our soul salvation? This is making less sense to me than ever before!
