Satiation levels
Right now, this world is rampant with
humans who have lost their way. They neither hear their inner voices nor see
any signs from the Divine. The foundation of life itself is like a house of
cards. It has no substance.
The way God has willed it, whichever path
we traverse does have the potential to change course at any time that we
understand that the path is taking us somewhere else, away from where we NEED
to reach, not where we WANT to reach.
Wants always tamper with our satiation
levels. Needs can be satisfied. Once this difference is understood, there is
hope.
Today, with the pandemic situation, when so
many souls are leaving this contaminated world, we are still not understanding
that we have created this reality with our greed and unholy ways. The humanity
of humans is under a cloud.
It was said that eyes are the windows of
our soul. But these days, we don’t odserve the eyes and if and when we do, the
actual soul has been camouflaged so brilliantly with a veneer of “success” and
“happiness” that the world is fooled by the superimposition of fake over real.
What’s the point ? Ultimately, nothing
gained and everything lost ! But do we care ?

Contentment
We discover something new everyday. I realised that a feeling of contentment depends greatly on acceptability. The reason we often burn on the inside is the conflict that arises from not accepting things as they are.
And the most arduous and conflicting of all
is to embark on a project of changing people or situations.
How many of these have you all been able to
change ? I am certain of the answer. So, what next ? Accept what is. And if you
look for pluses in what is, wonders of wonders , you will actually find them.
Life always compensates a lack of something
with something else. Only the human mind gets stuck and refuses to accept a
different scenario. The mind is really like the rusty pin of an erstwhile
record player which used to get stuck on the deepening grooves of old records
with every play.
Well… the only way is to heave ho and
catapult yourself onto a new space with energy . Regretfully, that energy is
also stagnant within the mind space. So, once you accept only , can you move
into a better space.
So much knowledge but half baked ! Until
you actually apply it with understanding. And THEN you learn to smile, shrug
and move on without any internal damage…….And there comes your contentment !

Opportunity
Today, we are so involved in what we think is our real life that we don’t have time for “frills”. The same frills , if they are loving people and tools for personal evolution, will become very important later in life. When we are young, we don’t have the bandwidth to understand this.
When realisation does dawn, many of the
loving people around us who we regret not valuing , have passed on . And the
ones we thought were ours, have moved on. What is left is regret !
At any stage in life, the vision must
always have a broader perspective to carry the “valuables” in our lives with
us, despite being busy in our own little world. And I don’t mean material
riches. Because life is a vast experience , provided we have a thirst for
understanding its validity and impact on
our journey. There is always a purpose . Nothing is meaningless.
But we fail to understand it. The
opportunity to heal our darker spaces are manifold but we are blindfolded. Only
fear makes us limited. Otherwise, we are luminous, unlimited beings. But who is to explain this to anyone until
the right realisation triggers change ?
