On
facing our biggest foe/enemy
But
what about dealing with and facing our greatest enemy?
We hide
from him almost always! We don’t even
know where he is. We don’t even recognise him as our enemy. And therein lies
our greatest mistake and weakness. Unless we get to accept him as our opponent,
our enemy, we’ll not get to fight him. We have to realize him as our biggest
enemy first. And that is the most difficult task. Because this enemy is not outside
for us to see. He is within us, camouflaged as ourselves. And the only means to
see him is to look within!
humne apnon ko aazmaya hai...
aap kaanton se daaman bachake chalthe hai
humne fhoolon se zakhm khaye hai...
आप औरों की बात करते हैं
हमने अपनों को आज़माया है....
आप काँटों से दामन बचाके हैं
हमने फूलों से ज़ख्म खाये हैं
you talk of others
I have tested mine.....
you protect yourself from thorns
I have been hurt by flowers....
Contd.....

Wow Thank you .
1. The enemy we r talking about is I .
2. I recently understood that others are our reflection shown in the mirror. If we r angry we see anger in them .
3. The same is the case with our understanding of things , conversations, people all that is around us .
4. We can catch this enemy by having a check on ourselves , observing our body how is it responding , having a check on our emotions .
5. The post enclosed also helped me to understand what I am going through.
I feel my biggest enemy is lack of confidence and fear. I will do rebirth meditation.
