In the solitude of the self

In the solitude of the self
Buddha is not on the peak, rather the peak is beneath Buddha. One who goes to the peak comes down, but the peak seeks the one who is stationed in the inner space.
Shiva is called Chandrasekhara which means that mind which is in the Shiva (transcendence) and is always above the peak.
Often people are running after parties and celebrations, but for the one who is not running after them, parties and celebrations follow him. If you are running after parties, loneliness comes to you, but if you are in the solitude of the Self, parties surround you.
=========================
If someone has not intended to hurt you, it is an unintentional act, then it is your own mistake. You can only blame your own perception, and not them. They are not culprits, it is you who has to ask them for forgiveness, ‘Please forgive me because I mistook you. I thought you intentionally hurt me.’ Then the friendship grows.
=========================
You can develop your intuition through regular meditation. When the mind is free of cravings, aversions and distortions, then it settles and becomes sharper. That is when intuition develops.
=========================
Q: What is Holi?
+Guruji: Like Holi, Life should be colourful; not boring. Harmony in diversity makes life vibrant, joyful and more colourful.
=========================
Money has its role to play, but don’t think money is everything. If you have a strong vision of doing something good to the society, I tell you resources will come all by itself. Nature will start helping you.
=========================
"Though the river is vast, a little sip quenches your thirst. Though Earth has so much food, just a little bite satisfies your hunger. All that you need is teeny tiny bits. Accept a teeny tiny bit of everything in life, that will bring you fulfilment. "
=========================
Q: Are we all destined to do something or be something, or do we have choices?
+Guruji: Yes and No. There are few things you can have control over and there are some things which you cannot change.
Om Namah Shivay
