Me, my Guru On Buddha and sweets

She being herself answered “No. keep giving advice. Keep helping people. Keep explaining to people. Just remember to not own the results and its benefits if any. Disown it. next, don’t condition the results. If someone takes, bless him, someone doesn’t bless him too. And as you do work on others, work on the areas on which are you are helping others. If you are asking someone to let go off their anger, look at yourself – which is the area where you apply let go in your life – especially anger. Is it an expectation, condition or a belief? And then work on it. Heal it. Don’t blame or judge them or get angry at them for not taking your advice or thanking you after benefitting out of it. do the job. Enjoy ‘doing’ and expect nothing in return. Your healing happens faster than you can imagine. You’ll become lighter. Your light will shine forth and that’ll reflect in every aspect of your life – more beautifully than you can imagine” having said this she sat with eyes closed. 

                                   

We discussed among ourselves for some time. We exchanged our views.

Then after sometime we joined her in meditation. Today, we glided into meditation much more effortlessly than usual!

Was it the topic that we covered?

Was it her presence that made the difference today?

Whatever it was, it was good for us!

We liked what we heard and received together. Many of our pending questions too seemed to be addressed today.

Time to see where and how to fit this understanding in our life!

Yes, we had to make it part of our system. What use is it otherwise?

With these thoughts we started our meditation. We sat in meditation till even these thoughts were silenced.

We tasted silence! And that tasted better than all our understanding put together!

On such days leaving her place seemed more painful than ever! But we had to and so we did…….for now….

Pointers on this post : 

• "She being herself answered " - Inspite of being scorned, talked with irritation in the tone, she maintains her poise and calm....that is not talking about her. That is not to say "oh, so Guru's are supposed to be like that" and go around judging one and all people whom you call or term as Gurus...Here we are seeing a possibility. Here we are being told the way to conduct ourselves and to maintain our poise and balance inspite of people around us being hurtful, irritating and getting angry for no reason.......if we can just pick this up and work on our state of mind, we will then have no problem with any one in our life. All our relationship problems would vanish once and for all.......
• "Don’t blame or judge them or get angry at them for not taking your advice or thanking you after benefitting out of it. do the job. Enjoy ‘doing’ and expect nothing in return" - this sums up our behaviour after giving advice to others.....when someone doesn't take it we get let down, angry, irritated. We end up trying to find reason and justify it as their karma not being good or any of their character which is not up to the mark. Once shop keeper sells us does he come to our house and see if we are using his product and then judge us if we haven't unpacked even after years of purchasing it.....be like a shop keeper, give advice and forget it.....
• "We tasted silence! And that tasted better than all our understanding put together!" - This silence can be experienced only when the mind is calmed or put aside for some time at least. This joy is greater than nay 100 times greater than the greatest joy you know of this world.......smart person is one who goes for a higher joy in comparison to the lower joy every time.......at least start with working for this joy by meditating for 15mts per day......with no expectations out of it - just for the joy it is capable of giving when done right......go for it....its yours for asking.....

Note : 

Every time i see anger, fear, irritation, suffering etc in one of you, i know i haven't explained enough or right......so i keep working on various ways of explanation. This path is very difficult and i appreciate each one of you however little steps you make for still keeping up this walk with me. I never said it was easy, but I can promise one thing, it is worth it and is more satisfying than all the journeys you would make in this and any other life time. This also would make your other journeys enjoyable and that is the beauty of this journey. It just doesn't make you rich from within but opens you up to the joys of this world which you so much seek....

in this post i have made few changes in the way i added tips on understanding the post better........let me know if it was useful in any way.......
