Spiritual path
The most difficult exercise on the
spiritual path is being indifferent to people’s words and actions.
You can see their intention , to hurt, to
throw barbs for various reasons , to insult , to put you down , to wound you in
which ever way they can …. Quick reactions are so normal , though they should
not be.
The other day, I was asking my almost
eight year old grandson, “ do you become
a donkey if someone says you are one?” He laughed sheepishly but he understood.
These kids are very mature .
So, the long and short of it is, let all
such speech and action fall off your energy body because internalising these
meaningless negativities is just not desirable for the self.
So, when we speak of “Sama bhaav a”, or
balance or neutrality, it also implies a certain indifference to these episodes
and such people around you.
Please notice , I said AROUND you. Never let
these get INSIDE of you . Buddha spoke of suffering. The body will be diseased,
will die and bodily suffering therefore, is a reality.
But why would we suffer due to our own
ignorance, our own choices to feel the negativities of others in OUR system?
We can flinch from just venomous words. We
could also flinch from waves of envy and hate exuding from people. But , having
been exhausted by such reactions, when the immunity enters us , we are able to look at , to observe that
everything is powerless unless WE give it the power through our attention.
Suddenly, we can smile at all of that and we find we are free !
Ignore with calmness , knowing that we are
incapable of getting affected and rise in our vibrations to leave the space of
such low vibrations.
Sounds like a eureka moment, doesn’t it ?
But… far from it ! It takes a lot of courage and energy to leave that space
because, in leaving that space, we leave many people behind as well.

Humanity
Humanity generally swings between love and
loss. Love is the spiritual energy and loss the result of fear, the other
energy but the darker of the two.
Imagine if there WAS nothing to lose? This realization
is the ultimate in all realizations. You lose only what you have, right? But if
you realize that you don’t own anything or anyone then?
Everything is flowing by and to observe
this with love for the Creator is actually to love oneself, to know oneself,
being an integral part of the Creator. Just like a drop cannot claim
independence from a body of water. The drop is a small part of a whole, which
we know as Divine Energy. And everything is sacred and whole within it.

Insecurities
Relationships and insecurities go hand in
hand. When you are trying hard to secure relationships, you are also
communicating to yourself a need within you. A need to be liked, a need to be
popular, maybe and a need to belong somewhere, probably because the idea of
belonging to yourself is alien.
But it is true that if you know how to
belong to yourself, then you can go anywhere and there will be only a lightness
of being. At that time, you won’t bother to even think of what people say or
think about you.
Every day, there are situations in our
lives where we could react and react strongly sometimes. But that, we must be
aware, would be our insecurities speaking. There is great merit in being
unfazed by the episodes of active energy around us and remaining steadfast.

Divine love
I don't know why people feel that praising
anyone takes away from them. How ? I have never understood. In fact, lauding
people for their , accomplishments or achievements or talent makes you feel so
good ! So connected to the Divine energy that stands illuminated in each one of
us.
Being generous is a true gift. Many times,
if we don't like someone, we only criticise . And praise ??? Never !!! Sad but
true ! Envy ? Probably . Low self esteem ? For sure.
But once we analyse this, we must make a
genuine effort to cleanse this aspect within us . Because this block really
acts as a big obstacle, a hindrance in our personal growth. It blocks the heart
which carries the Divine energy of divine love.
