Becoming Defenseless
Whenever a boundary is broken, it creates some fear. The fear creates dislike. This dislike puts us back in the boundary. And to keep yourself in the boundary, you put forth defences. When you try to defend your position, it is such a stress, isn't it? And every time you try to defend your position it makes you more and more weak.
On the path, people even use the Knowledge as a defence against criticism! Don't use Knowledge as a defence.
The Knowledge is like an umbrella for you - a shelter, not a weapon. Of course, sometimes "Don't use Knowledge as a weapon" becomes an excuse not to be in Knowledge!
I say, drop all your defences. Anybody can make a mistake. Even you!
Don't defend your mistakes. Just accept them and move on. When you are totally defenseless, that's when you'll be strong.
====================
Just have this deep faith that only the best will happen for you. So what if right now there are some difficult times to face? Face them with courage and a smile.

Q: When should one stop engaging with the world and be free completely?
Guruji : While engaging in the world you should feel the freedom.
When you sit for meditation that is when you should completely disengage from the world. And when you come back to activity, then you should have keen awareness. Develop that mindfulness and keen awareness.
=================
Wherever wisdom is coming from, we should honor and appreciate it. If we honor the wisdom, there cannot be extremism, fanaticism and terrorism
==================
Q: Is it necessary to match horoscopes for a good marriage?
Guruji : Check if the horoscopes are correct or not. Sometimes they are manipulated to suit someone’s needs. If you like someone in all other aspects, and everything seems okay, then it’s fine, you should go ahead and marry the person.
Om Namah Shivay
