Me, My Guru – on keeping count in love
Was it because we were afraid of seeing ‘our real
self’?
Well, from those who were brave enough to be honest we
summed up our next to-do list.
The areas where we could extend our concern, affection
and giving had to be expanded.
It included our immediate family
We need to look into how to learn to give to our
family without expecting in the first place.
This would be a long process, rather a lifelong
process of learning and applying.
But every time we applied it – even in a small measure,
we would for certain reap benefits for sure!
We had to give ourselves to our job. Maybe, not all of
us had jobs that we loved. But we needed to love our job. That started with
giving our 100% to our jobs even without the thought of bitterness. This was
easier said than done. But no issues there! We had life time to put this lesson
into practice. This is what our Guru would say!
We need to do sadhan without counting the number of
days we did it. Just as we ate daily we had to do sadhan daily. Did we ever
even think “Mom, how long should I eat? It’s already 25 years since I’ve
started eating. Now, I hate food for trying to come into my mouth? Why God is
so bad, why can’t I be strong for the next 25 years without having to eat?” We
don’t complain about having to earn life-long, why we even look forward to
pension if possible. We all want to earn all through our life. We all want to
eat and enjoy all through life. The sadhan that makes us eligible to earn more
and enjoy life that we count, complain and ask questions like “how many more
days maam?” When we are eating food throughout life we know it is must to
upkeep our body, our physical self. Similarly sadhan is food for soul. Tell me,
why deny food for soul?Contd....
