Nature of Feelings

Nature of Feelings
Feelings cannot always be constant. Our passion also will not be the same all the time. There will be ups and downs.
Feelings are not like stones, they are like water. Just like how ripples arise in water, the same goes for feelings as well. Feelings arise and then they settle down, and then again they rise. This is only natural. That is why love and longing always go together. You sometimes feel intense longing, and sometimes you feel an abundance of love, and then again you experience longing and then intense love. This will keep on happening in life.
=========================
The candle is burning for you; you don’t have to do anything. The sun is shining for you, there is nothing to do. You have to be grateful, sit below it and enjoy and serve and be in love. It’s simple as that.
=========================
We have come into this exquisite world to experience ever and ever more deeply our divine courage, freedom and light!
=========================
People run here and there like headless chickens with likes and dislikes, and get nothing. Who cares what you like and dislike? How long does it take to dislike something you like, and if you dislike something how long does it take to start liking it again? We need to wake up from this slumber. That will bring inner strength.
=========================
Q: What is moksha?
Guruji : How do you feel when your exams are over? Relieved, liberated. That's tiny moksha.
=========================
When you recognize politics in any group or Satsang, that is a blessing, an opportunity for you to be centered and go inward. You will not blame the group, run away from people, or chicken out, and you will enhance your skill to act while being unattached.
=========================
It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are.
=========================
Practice speaking about your true feelings and desires to people you trust.
Om Namah Shivay
