It takes courage to say "I Am"
Only
in deep rest can the Divine come, not by doing. All the doings are to
help you become silent. Not enjoying the bliss or the peace takes you
further - otherwise the bliss or the peace can create cravings. If the
existence wants to give it, then fine. It takes courage to say "I am".
Your true nature is bliss. But trying to enjoy the bliss, you step down
from is-ness to am-ness - "l am peaceful", "I am blissful". And that is
followed by "I am miserable". "I am" is dispassion. You can be anywhere
and be dispassionate. Dispassion is welcoming everything. Centeredness
brings energy, a spark. Enjoyment of bliss brings inertia. If you are
dispassionate, the bliss is still there. When the freezer is full of ice
cream you do not bother about it. Dispassion takes away the sense of
scarcity. Passion is a sense of lack of abundance. And whenever
everything is abundance, dispassion happens. And when dispassion is
there, everything comes in abundance.Q: What do we do when we catch ourselves enjoying our bliss?
Guruji: Then we feel stupid. Just an understanding we are enjoying it, creates a shift. There is no effort. Knowledge is better than action to make you free.
