You have all experienced this. Sometimes, you didn't want to shout, but you got angry and you shouted. It happened. An event happened, another event happened and then, a third. And you only see a little gap. You see everything is 'happening'. You are not doing them. Some days you sing very well and on some days write a nice poem. And you wonder how this peotry came about! Even if you ask the chefs, they would say that the food they prepared was wonderful on some days beyond t...

All these things are layers. The society, the body has its sex (male or female), and then the mind has its ups and downs (moods, joy and sorrow). But we are unable to perceive beyond that. More than seventy five percent of the people in society are not aware of their body or themselves - not even their body!! They are just aware of what people are saying, and what is happening outside. A very small percentage are conscious. They are aware of what they are doing, what they are saying, and what is happening in their body. They are concerned about their body. And even a smaller percentage are those who are aware of what i...

You have been young several times; you have been old several times; you have been a youth several times. In fact, look inside and see if you have aged. You will see that you have not aged or grown older. Often you see people around you who have grown up, and you feel that everybody has grown older. The children have become older but that you have not. That you are where you are. Others tell you , you have become old, but you don't feel you have.  We have concepts in the mind about our age - that we are getting older or that we are too young for something. When chi...

This is what really restricts us. This is what makes us unhappy. Just have a thought in your mind...

If you can see this body as a part of this earth, part of the air, ether, fire and the water, then a sense seperation takes place. You can feel that - a sense of seperation, or of totality, of total belongingness. If you could relax your mind, the energy in you is at rest, is at peace. Right now, at this very moment, you are happy. You will be the happiest person; the most peaceful and settled. बन्धमुक्तो भविष्यसि. You are free at this very moment. At any moment you can relax totally and let go; that very moment you are peaceful. If someone comes at particular mom...
