Would I have enjoyed the journey if I hadn’t bothered about the goal? I wonder!

And I think, by enjoying the journey, I wouldn’t have bothered about the time taken to reach the goal and the hurdles that crop up in the journey…

As I was hurrying through the journey, I didn’t enjoy the journey nor did I feel the satisfaction of having reached the goal when I finally did that?

So what is more important I wonder – journey or the goal?

Two Rooms

Two Rooms

My house has two rooms.  The front room has insecurities, anger, hatred and limitation.  It was always cramped.  The room was very dark too.

The inner room had light.  It had candles, incense sticks, space and love in it.

But, all through my life, I stayed in my first room.  I never went into my inner room.

My inner room had light, space and love!

A Madman

A Madman

Throughout my life, as far as I can remember, I used to hear a madman yelling in our street as he passed it through “It’s all about the journey, forget the destination”

Today, on my death bed, I understood what he meant when I heard his voice “It’s all about the journey, forget the destination, it’s all about the journey, forget the destination”.

A Request

People request me to write about certain topic or an issue...most of the time it is already addressed in my previous posts...so i request everyone to just go through the old blog posts too to find answers to your various questions....

your requests are welcome...i'll address each of your question without fail....

all the best in your journey into your self....

How to learn from each other

Please read the comments of others....you can learn so much from them.....recently if you have seen comments of Pradyumna sista you'll notice she has written about her observations about the mind games....just don't read it to agree or disagree with her....use it as a reminder to look within and find your real nature....

so the question is how do you do it? As you are going about your normal routine just observe your thoughts and feelings and then question them - then note them in a journal.....sort of diary writing - just about anything that moves you - it can trigger anger, jealousy, hatred, irritation or affection - doesn't matter just go about writing about it.......

next step would be just close your eyes at the end of the day and think about any one incident that you consider as a very major one on that day and meditate on it........try to understand your thoughts and feelings regarding that issue - just for 15 mts - then note it down in your journal.......

get to know yourself - that's the only thing worth knowing at the end of the day!

nothing else actually matters........

trust me...try it ..........

The key to happiness is not that you never get angry, upset, frustrated, irritated or depressed.  It's how fast you decide to get out of it!

If love is all that i want, why do i see only mistakes in others?
if happiness is all that i want, why do i remember and recollect only painful moments?
if health is all i want, why do i have unhealthy life style?
if satisfactions is all that i want, why do i compare myself with others and cry?
why - why do i always search for pain?
why do i always go for people who hurt me?
why do i not feel responsible towards my self and my well being?
why - i wonder!!!

Sometimes i wonder, if i am utilising all that i have completely - be it materials, things, books or relationships......
if i am not using them, then why do i need to accumulate more of these things - again and again.....
do i know their utility value or are they just  important enough to possessed by me.....

Just BE and LIVE the moment, HAVE an experience, FEEL the bliss and you KNOW!"

When I need it I don’t have it.

When I have it, I don’t need it.

Me, my guru

…contd….

“I asked the tree this question once and the tree said ‘I can because I don’t have past to live up to and a future to worry.  I do what needs to be done now – and the time does the rest.” She continued oblivious of my suffering “The tree could TRUST the moment and shed her leaves completely.  She didn’t think ‘what’ll people who’ve seen me full think of me if I become bare no.  like-wise it didn’t bother about future thinking if leaves don’t come again, then what about my future and security.”  A person who doesn’t need to uphold an image of the past or worry of the future only can ‘live the moment completely’ and only sucha  person can ‘Trust’ the process, nature, reiki, God – why eve me?” she chuckled and she uttered last words “To trust one should have ‘no ego’.  No person with ego can trust.  You should surrender yourself completely to the other to have Trust.  It means you need to ‘submit yourself’ in toto and that cannot happen as long as ‘YOU’ exist.  Only when ‘YOU’ no longer exist can you put your faith in me or reiki – clear?” she patted my cheek and left with a smile leaving me there to digest the entire conversation.

All these years, I put the blame on her, reiki and God to prove their greatness, goodness and asked them to give reasons to trust them.  No, on the contrary, I was finding excuses to not trust them.  I would judge situations, their actions and asked them to conform to my specifications and if they deviated I jumped with joy and said ‘see so, I can’t trust them.’

But, the problem was in my all through – no the problem was me.  I couldn’t submit myself completely.  I didn’t feel good with myself I needed time to collect myself.  I left her place even without saying goodbye to her.  How long it would take me to process this whole fact I don’t know.  Till then, I preferred not to meet her…….

I hope I don't take long to understand it – because I didn’t wish to be away from her for too long too!

I sat down and cried…..

Me, My guru

...contd...

‘you see that Banyan tree?’  her voice cut through the silence.

‘yes’ I said startled not knowing what and where this conversation came from.

“Just 2 months back, do you remember when you had come and I was here looking at it” she continued, ‘so, this is what she was staring at all these days’ I thought to myself and just nodded my head in answer to her question.  She didn’t even turn to look at me and continued “the whole tree – such a huge peepul tree was void of its leaves not a single leaf on its branches just 2 months back.  Now look! Its full. When we see the tree now, we can’t know that she was totally bare just 2 months back and looking at her then one wouldn’t imagine her being so full as now.  Isn’t that surprising?” she asked.

What was surprising? Wasn’t that natural? I thought. I was bit confused.  Where was this conversation heading to? Why was she talking about that tree suddenly now?  No doubt I don't trust her.  Sometimes, she would be so serene mouthing words so profound and other times like now would talk matter irrelevant and out of control. 

“How could such a huge tree have confidence to shed all its leaves?  Where from it gained the trust that it could be rich with greenery soon?” I didn’t have an answer.  I gave an irritating look to that tree.  Who asked it to drop leaves and get new ones?  Where was the need? Now, I was being grilled unnecessarily for it, I didn’t like this tree….

She was standing on the terrace with her back towards me when I went to meet her. I walked slowly, silently not wanting to frighten her.  She seemed lost in some thoughts.  As I neared her even without turning her head she said ‘ which question is weighing so heavily on you today?”  I smiled at myself and replied ‘why can’t I trust?’ 

She turned suddenly with a twinkle in her eyes and a chuckle that was so sweet when she asked “Trust on whom?”

“On Reiki, God – why, I don’t even trust you completely” I replied sheepishly.

She nodded her head and turned her face.  It was as if it meant nothing.  I just now said ‘I don’t ‘trust you’ and yet here she was – her unfazelled self as ever.

Having nothing else to do, I went and stood beside her and started staring where I supposed she was looking at.  I didn’t see anything there.  Few minutes passed.  Sometimes, silence in her company took me to a different level of experience.  I couldn’t word it many times – yet it was so fulfilling and on other times it was terrifying.  Today was one such moment.  I just promised myself – 5 minutes and I would leave her.  But it was not to be so.

‘you see that Banyan tree?’  her voice cut through the silence.

When I have it, I look at its imperfections and how it causes pain to me. 

But,, when I don’t have it, I just ‘want’ it – nothing else!
