Me, my Guru - On choices, fate, destiny and all...

“As long as you don’t know where you are going, it doesn’t matter how long you travel you’ll reach there always!”

If we didn’t know where we were headed to, how could we travel in that direction?

We always said ‘lots of happiness’ but could we define what happiness was for us and therein was our problem.

But apart from that the knowledge that we were where we were because of our choices was a good and comforting one. Added to it was that every choice – even the so called ‘wrong one’ actually benefitted us towards getting what was right for us. The sooner we

come out of our regret, guilt, anger, grief, resentment, easier would be our healing and journey. Then we didn’t have to do much, situation changed automatically! But the first step would be acceptance that “I did make a choice which I thought was right under said condition. I couldn’t have been happy if this choice was not allowed to be made by me too! Go over past and see if you would’ve accepted that course of events – no, we wouldn’t have

been happy then too! So, stop that resentment and anger and work on healing. Once we accept, the journey becomes so easy and then ‘we would be happy effortlessly’. Our assumption that we would be happy under set conditions only is an illusion that drives us crazy enough to let go off the beauty of present time. People living in cities spend thousands to travel and experience desert life and people in desert suffer it as they think they are forced to be there and that they are living there out of ‘no choice’. Similar is the case in our life too.

Today my understanding seemed to have blossomed suddenly. I got a better perspective of my life, its choices, its pain and sufferings. And suddenly even without any healing I felt light and happy. I felt a huge burden removed from my back. If felt free from so many angles. I felt good. For once I knew I could carry this ‘well being’ for days to come......

I left her place with ‘thanks’ to my choice of coming here and sticking around since years however disappointed I have been with the process and her in the past. I thanked my stars. I thanked her choice to have chosen to be our master.

Yes, every choice did come with chain of events with it and I knew my choices were good as I was standing here experiencing this flow of happiness through my being and tears rolling down my cheek....
