Excerpts from Student Of Life - 02 - Life is an investment


World is beautiful. People see the world with their experiences. Experiences may be bad but not the world. World is as it is. We must stop blaming others. First accept our self, whatever we are- good , bad , ugly. All is ours.

People want to see things on their own. What does it mean? We don't trust anyone!
Why don't we trust others? What makes us think others are decepting?
Why we are not able to believe? Is it not that we have notions? We have wounds, hurt as references, which are blocking us. What makes us derive to this conclusion that all others are bad.
 We have  approved ourselves to stick to this one point formula.
"I will believe with my own knowledge, I wont approve, I DON'T accept".
If that is right, then WHY cant we stay by ourselves?
Why do we roam so much, Why we are unable to finalise by ourselves? why we seek new things all the time? Why we remain dissatisfied? DO WE ACCEPT OUR SELF?
We are rejecting everything, then what is right? so the whole world is wrong? seriously wrong?
how much negativity it is!!.
 
Why things come to us, its because of HIM, ALL THE TIMES. WE or I doesn't exist in reality.
But all the times we boast of ourselves as if we are dissatisfied.
Who is dissatisfied? Who wanna accept or reject?
Who is there other than mind or its recordings of previous experiences? or the collection of such experiences? It is called EGO.
Its like a memorial standing erect always in between two people, between world and US.
When both are memorials, standing up right , why would they meet?
Both can be like " I know better than you".
So there is no relationship, no manners, no etiquette, no bond, no love, no humility, no compassion , no sensitivity towards others' feelings or theirs, which also consists of emotions.
Its HEART which can reach beyond mind.

When we talk with heart, without bias, without selfish hidden agendas, without seeking anything or without any expectations, we just be there with them , Why would that language not reach?
It may reach to mind. If it reaches to mind, it will start judging, show doubts, seeing the person who was different before and now doing something different, it gets suspicious, doubts, expectations, greed, sabotage, deceit,cleverness, all comes in to picture. Heart can reach heart in flip second, NOTHING it seeks IN RETURN, yet we feel FULFILLED.
That is love. That is loving.
 
Such things where do we find. We find at sant ashram( Buddha, sant ashram, maharishi, saint)
He only directs us properly. Some rishi mahatma only can show mercy and let us to see the way.
How to see things, how to behave, what to expect, what not to expect, where to show individuality, where not to, what is responsibility, a duty is, what is not , what is lord, what is not, what is good, what is bad, how to live in this world, how we should be confined to ourselves
why we should not boast ourselves, why we show openly our love towards lord, not the earthly things.

If you show your diamond necklace in a party, what would be the result?
If you sing bhajan in a temple, what would be the result?
Both the things you show. yet both are showing. But both the results would be severely different.
Saint would be telling good and bad at all the times, also show learning in that also.
Physical pleasures is only just enjoying senses and reap Karma phalam, which is due in next birth or who knows this birth if we repeatedly do the same things, OUR POT OF SIN would be full and it would break now only in this birth. If some one reach saint and they revert the mind pattern, learn the mistakes, vow not to repeat it, then the pot of sin would not be filled.
whatever was there it would be at bottom. On top of that goodness would fill .
So whatever be there, it would be little and would be in next birth and if there is mercy of lord, who knows the small karma phalam would get burned and nothing left .
If he is pleased by the devotion, so next birth would be spotless.
 
So where would we learn such things - from a renunciated person only.
He only could  let us know how to be humble, how to be compassionate, how to be sensitive to others feelings. Yes, others are not. But we are knowing that they are not knowing. Hence who should be humble? - the person who is knowing. Then he have ability. People say he can resist, he got strength, he got something, he is tough inside. If we reciprocate like them, its like dog fight in streets. We are not animals.We are humans. Yes, we should reciprocate IN LOVE, IN GOODNESS, IN POSITIVITY, IN CREATIVITY, IN HARMONY, IN HELPING OTHERS. We all are bonded.
But whatever we can help others, we can do. ( Like in swaraga, naraka story - where people feed others with their hands tied). But we can feed to those WHO KNOWS that their hands are tied, who has awareness, or in a way we can say - a practitioner.
 
Its not for in general. If we feed them, they will run away. We would wonder, " I am feeding you, I am giving goodness, why are u so lethargic, why are u so lazy, you are busy is it?".
In return what would they say?. " I am tired, I have no time and all the notions about the person who is feeding pops up" . I need to see my things I better understand. My things, my way, my , mine, I , me . We accumulate so much . Its a big reservoir, that we think we are. But that is nothing , no use. It has limited use, to accumulate possession.

Accumulating possession also is by cheating others. When we observe during accumulating, we have to hurt someone to possess that. There is nothing that we can accumulate or possess which is without hurts, without cheating, without deceit, lies. All things which are our possession are laid on this foundation and we think these things would benefit us. People say its for our kids and those kids get education from that money which is been accumulated in that way. In return parents get kicks and they wonder. Could not know the basic subtle foundation. We think we are saving pies. If its hurting others, if its snatched from others, wrongly earned, duping others, or not from hard work, from sweat,
how could we think that will benefit us?
How goodness could come out of it?
Why it will give fruits of wisdom? when we sow seeds of suffering.
What we sow , so we reap.
All sorts of accumulation including goodness is also waste.
All leads to attachment and attachment is death.
Then how are we going to survive these demonic minds that will kill us for nothing?.
Hence sant says - "Middle Way".
Don't be too good nor too bad. Accumulate for your needs.
Accumulate from your hard work. No short cuts, no gambling, no wasting in wine, luxuries.
Accumulate to raise children, for your old age and continuation of goodness.
PASS IT ON TO THEM , HOW YOU DEFEATED BETAAL( NEGATIVE FORCES) AND BECAME VIKRAM( POSITIVE FORCES/POSITIVITY).

They also have to face betaal in this world. Its in the mind, mind voices.
Who can say about it- The one who conquered can say it.
or the one who in process can say theory and give example of the one who did it.
At any cost GOODNESS MUST PREVAIL.
At least in next birth we would be born spotless.

Life is an investment, says mentorji.  "Jeevan ka lakshya mukthi nahi , nivesh hai!"
Life is not a salvation to be saved out of the world, but it is an investment to be used in the world.
 
Live controlled, relaxed life , no matter how fast the pace may be.
