BEING A WITNESS (PART 4)

Continuation from Being a Witness (Part 3)......

There is great depth in knowledge. We need to listen to knowledge again and again so that we are able to remember and use it at the right time in the right way. You feel so light from within, and then no work feels like a struggle or an effort. Nothing can tire you then.

The end goal of all joy and comfort is to relieve you of your fatigue and distress. It does not only mean physical tiredness, it also means mental tiredness as well. When the mind is entangled in negativity such as anger, greed, jealousy, etc., then what is the use of having great wealth? Distortions arise when there is feverishness for wealth and fame, then you need to work towards being free from these distortions. See, the same medicine which helps cure diseases when taken in excess amounts can also cause harm and side-effects. Then a medicine also becomes a reason for disorders. So, again and again, bring yourself into the state of being a witness. It does not happen in one go. You need to make an effort again and again to reach this state.
