Meditation; Buddha; Jesus; and You…



You can converse with Buddha. You can converse with Jesus. You have read their books; and you have gathered knowledge. And after possessing such great knowledge; there is no peace; there is no happiness in your life. 

They are continually talking to you; they are continuously indicating your path; but your attention is somewhere else in their books; in their audio tapes discourses; in Churches. And the day you understand Buddha; nothing more left to you; the moment this awareness of, understanding Buddha; Jesus happens inside you; that very moment you are liberated. Liberation is already there with you; waiting to be exploded. 

What the Buddha is saying; what Jesus is saying is their experiences; which happened inside them; they are sharing that knowledge; rather those moments with you. Mark my words; it can happen to you; it can explode in you; if you are awakened. 

Look at your breath; move with your breath; go in, come out; along with your breath; and while doing so, do not bother for the result; do not wait for the result. Just keep moving with your breath. 

The Buddha renounced everything; his family; his kingdom. The Prince became a beggar; wandered all over; kept meditating; and finally one day under a tree, tree of wisdom at a city named Gaya in India, he met the explosion inside him. Finally, wisdom exploded and this awakening in him. 

Buddha; Jesus, they became a fountain; and the everlasting nectar kept flowing out; unnoticed, it kept flowing. You have to merely collect this nectar; rest work Buddha; Jesus has done for you. You do not have to make any effort. Buddha and Jesus has taken the pain on your behalf; you don't have to do anything; you do not have to make any effort; you do not have to renounce anything. 

Yet, some people; some yogis, some mahatma tell you to renounce; you do not have to renounce. Stay wherever you are; stay with your family; keep doing your mundane work, you do not have to renounce anything; that part of renouncement Buddha and Jesus has done for you; you have to just collect the nectar; and that’s all, your wisdom is waiting to be exploded. 

You go to Church; you follow Buddha; and from this place onwards you misery starts. Going to Church  or reading Buddha is not wrong; your way of collecting it is not right; because whenever you go to Church; or whenever you read Buddha’s books you are not there; bodily you are present in the church; your existence is not there. 

You are listening the sermon; but you are not listening; your mind is listening; let your ears do the listening part; you are thinking that you are listening the sermon; you are not listening. You are reading a Buddha book; but the eyes are not reading your mind is reading; let your eye do the looking; reading job. You have to be completely into this; half heatedly work will not do. 

Buddha and Jesus are merely indicating your path; you have to walk. They are telling their experiencing; what happened to them, ad verbatim; it happened to them. Buddha has continuously indicated  towards you what is happening inside you; it is you who has to feel; others will not feel for you; it is happening inside your way; Jesus is continuously telling what is happening to you; you are supposed to understand it, nobody else will or nobody can understand it for you. It is always your understanding. 

What happened to Buddha; whatever happened to Jesus; this awakening happened to them; and they are sharing their experiences; and when this understanding; this knowledge; this realization comes to you then it will be your awakening; not others. And after that whatever you will be saying you will be saying tour experiences; your way; Yes; it is always your way. 

And this is the missing point; you start following. Nectar is exploding inside you; and you are in search of others story what happened to them; what they are saying. And Buddha; and Jesus is indicating towards inside you; "look there"! And without understanding the direction; you kept on running in a wrong direction; without understanding it.

And this what has been happening since ages to you; how you will get peace, how you will be happy. You have to stop running in the wrong direction. Understand what Buddha is saying; what Jesus is saying; there is nothing wrong in their teaching; wrong is you. And the main problem is with you is; you are never here. 

Do this simple exercise; start staying in a moment; float; do not use any force. After sometime you will find that deep inside you; you are silent. Talk to your silence. And the day you start communicating to your silence; you will find that you are talking to Buddha; you will find that you are talking to Jesus. 

Law of attraction certainly holds water; Attraction attracts. I have come across something interesting;  to make this path more lively and useful...       

Yes; You can converse with Buddha; you can converse with The Jesus. Buddha is continuously talking to you; yes; Jesus is continuously talking to you; you have to listen; just listen...and stay blessed.

Meditation; Life; Death; Celebration; and You…

Life and Death; both have to come; celebrate both. Accept, Life and Death; as it is, no alteration no adding is required, just accept as it comes to you, as it is; and celebrate.

When acceptance, becomes a compulsion; your wishes apart; you have to accept it; then the word Expression loses its value; loses its meaning...how to express? 

How to express this is a big question mark? Life happens; Death happens; there is no other way; you have to accept. Whatever form it is coming; you have to accept. When there is no choice; when everything is preset, pre designed; and when nothing is left to you; then Accept. 

There is millions example; where it is said; that you can design your life the way you wish; and to prove this statement examples are sighted; to convince you. And after getting convinced you start your journey to set your life; if you are successful, it is all right and, if you are not successful, then you are devastated, your life is finished; it is ruined.

Where was the mistake; now another journey starts; you start finding your mistakes, so that you can take note of it and next time you will not commit this mistake. Fine you are satisfied now; you found out your mistake, you have corrected it. Again, with a new vigor; your next journey starts…and when the end come; you are at a total loss.

What to do; to live such a beautiful life you have to make so many efforts; just to live your life happily. Your result is out; and when your death come and stand before you; then that time you might realize that so much chaos you created all through life; for what? 

Have you died happily; satisfied? And it is yes for you; you think you have performed your duty correctly; you have made savings for everybody; you have settled everybody’s life; now you are happy, and now you can happily die.

And continuing that moment; another thought strikes you; ‘are you happy’; did you live fully each and every single moment of your own life; have you ever laugh with full laugh; did you ever talk to the wind; did you ever converse with the nature; and finally; you could really make others satisfied, happy, settling into their life? 

When you could not live a single moment of your life; when you could not settle your own life; how do you claim that you have made others life happy? Duty; scarifies these are ugly words. You cannot live for others; how you can live for others? You can only live for yourself. 

Everybody come with their own destiny; future; you cannot alter it. And you have spent your entire life in altering others life; and your own life kept passing by; unnoticed? You could never understand; you never felt your own life; how will you celebrate life; how will you celebrate death?"

Yes, life is a celebration; Death is a celebration. You have to accept both as it is; the way they are coming to you. And the day this understanding comes to you; then, whatever way your life and death is coming to you; it will not affect you. You will be far ahead; untouched.

And that particular untouched moment of your life, where you are untouched from mundane happening, is your real life; full of health; full of life; do not miss it; live it fully. 

That is the moment of nirvana; this is possible through Meditation. Meditation disrobes you completely; and it is necessary. Unless your entire structure, which is false; full of duty, sacrifices, etc. unless this is taken away from you; unless your knowledge which you have gathered till now is taken from you, nothing will happen. You have to be disrobed completely first; and meditation does this job with perfection. 

Your entire structure has to be shaken; and when this shake happens then only you can feel the shake inside you; which is a great shake. Go with that shake, which is happening, inside you; and you will find yourself; celebrating your life; you will find yourself celebrating your death. 

Here is continuous celebration is your life; inbuilt. This celebration of your life consist of everything; good and bad, sin and holiness, beautiful and ugly, plus and minus everything is consisted in proportion; correctly measured; you do not have to do anything. You do not have to do anything; you do not have to add anything; without your permission correct measurement of yours is being taken. 

And on my journey ahead; I came across something very interesting; which will help you when you are practicing Meditation...  

Almighty is a unique scientist; without your knowledge, without your permission He / She has taken the correct measurements of yours; you do not have to add anything extra; you have to simply float in it; with total acceptance. Be there in your life’s celebration; and when death knocks at your door; it will be another beautiful celebration for you; all the best...

Meditation; Comedy of Error; and Fear in You…



The Error is bliss. An error; the mistake was committed; punishment was given; expulsion was ordered; and The Universe was created. And the comedy began. 

You stayed awake in the Garden of Eden; and the moment The Universe was created; you slept again. Some of you, sometimes; you are awakened; and then you go to sleep again.

The Error is important; the mistake is important; and you are afraid; and that is why you are scared before taking any decision. You are afraid of taking decisions; you are afraid of committing mistakes; unaware of the fact that this mistake of yours might be a turning point in your life. Commit mistakes; do not get scared. 

Your fear will keep you wavering all the time. And a shaky mind can never lead a stable life. Before your expulsion from the garden that this is going to happen; and out of fear you might not have eaten the forbidden fruit; and the result this Universe might not have been created. 

An error; a mistake was the root cause of creation of this Universe. Fearlessness brings many things; which can help you in enhancing your life; so never be afraid of committing mistakes. To learn; to grow, you have to commit mistakes. A child learns how to walk after committing many a mistakes; the child learns to walk, after he falls. So you must stumble and get up; in order to keep walking. 

And to keep walking; do not be afraid of committing mistakes; error. This will make you fearless. Fearlessness comes through meditation. Meditation first drops everything in you; and when you are nude in darkness; meditation brings light to you. And in that light for the first time you see you. 

Life itself is a comedy; and the error is its tool. Here sometimes you laugh; and sometimes you weep and the life keeps moving; you too; move with the life; keep moving with the life; and this fear of committing error will go away. You are not sure of anything; you can never be sure of anything; because you do not know what is going to happen next moment; The Universe moves in a mysterious way.

And to enjoy this mystery you have to be fearless. And this fearlessness comes after committing an error. A shaky life will lead you nowhere; you have to be firm. And this firmness comes after meeting an error. In a comedy; sometimes you weep; sometimes you laugh; some time you are right; sometime you are wrong and the life keep moving. 

Your education; your lack of knowledge; has got nothing done with error; if you are a learned then too you are bound to commit error; after knowing everything; you are bound to commit mistakes. And when an error is woven so seriously in your life, then why to be scared of committing mistakes?

This fear comes because you are not certain of anything; and you are not certain of anything because you do not know that what is going to happen next moment in your life. 

The great president, before starting his journey, did not know that he is going to be shot. The coming moment is a mystery to you; your life is a mystery to you; this universe is a mystery to you; and in such mysterious situation error is bound to happen. And when something in your life is so sure to happen; then why to be scared of this. Yes, committing errors in awareness is something mysterious; meaningful.

And when you are on your path marching ahead; so many things you will meet on your way; like I too have picked one very nice and useful method; and what is that...

It is a very rare state; when you commit an error in full awareness; knowing about it; you commit an error; and that particular point, where you commit an error in awareness, is a state of Bliss. Enjoy comedy of life; meet error in awareness; meditate; and live your life in Bliss.

Meditation; Eldorado; and You…



Somewhere in your imagination; somewhere in your dream; there exists your Eldorado, you are there; you do not wish to come out; but the dream was broken; and you found yourself lying on your bed; sweating. 

Somewhere in your dream you saw an amalgam of your desire; the real you found in your dream. You were there; till you were dreaming; and that is important. Whether it was a false notion; or it was a dream; or it was a hallucination; whatever it was, important part of it is that; you were there. 

At least in your dream you were there. In real life you are never here; you are continuously thinking. Your mind is alive, taking you somewhere; you are dead. You are never here; that dream of yours was better; at least you were there.

When you awake; when the moment you met reality; the moment you met real you, you started missing the real you, you started missing the point; you were somewhere else thinking about your dream. And perhaps that was the moment...The Universe was created. 

And that’s why there are so much unrest around you; because you are continuously missing you. Unless you realize you; how you will come to know the real meaning of your life? How you will come to know; whether, really there exists any Eldorado? 

Yes, Eldorado exists. And there are endless Eldorado is living alive inside you in reality. But for that you have to look within. And that is the problem; how you will look within, there is no time; you are busy setting your goal; you are busy achieving your target; you are busy planning your future. 

What is going inside you you are not aware of it; what is going to happen next moment, you are not aware of; and you are busy planning your future unknown to you; you do not know whether there exists any future or not, you do not know; because you are busy planning for the unknown. 

This is tragic; and this is the reason; why there are so many tragedies around. You have made your life a tragedy. For peace; for happiness; you have to come out of it; you are dreaming when you are awake; and you are meeting reality when you are sleeping; this is strange. 

Meditate; start doing meditation. Meditation will help. You have to be awakened; and for that meditate. Eldorado exists; you can live there; you can feel Eldorado; that too when you are awakened; not in your sleep; not in your dream; in reality you can live in Eldorado. But for that you have to be awakened. 

Now the question arises; who will awake you? And the answer is you; you will awake you. And this unique realization comes through meditation. Eldorado in not imagination; Eldorado is not a myth; Eldorado is a reality; and that reality is inside you. Just cast a deep glance within; and find Eldorado in happening; alive there.

Meditation; Time; Past; Future; and You…



Effortless remedy is lying inside you; and you created havoc; you made atom; for peace happiness. 

Something is missing in the above title. And that missing point is you; you are the missing point. And from this missing point onward; you started missing life; you started missing You. That missing point is, in between Past and Future; Present. Which does not exist for you; you are never here at present; either you are in your past; or you are in your future; thinking; planning something. 

Existence; Life is here; in the present, and you are roaming somewhere in your future searching life; searching happiness; searching peace; or you are stuck somewhere in your past. Present; you are never here.  Wind is blowing here; touching you; untouched you are somewhere. 

You are used to live; to enjoy dead life; hence you never noticed; you never thought; you never realized that you are living a dead life. Entire creation; creation of the universe happened here; this very second; and you are not aware of it; that what is lying here in a moment. 

The present is important. Through meditation you reach a state where even Present do not exist. And the place where even present do not exist; there exists Now; and even Now exists in a moment. Very small moment; contains the entire existence; universe; you;  in its embrace. And you are somewhere else. 

How do you think happiness; realization will ever touch you. You have never felt your life; you are busy in making your career and solving others problems; in your thought. Continuously you are thinking; planning something; and life is passing by unnoticed. 

And when misery strikes you start searching some God to come to your rescue; or you search astrologers to come to your rescue. You start contacting holy books; you start visiting church; mosque; temples for a remedy. And when you are busy doing all this nonsense; life keeps passing by with your remedy; unnoticed. 

You stay devastated. And precisely this is the reason for your unrest; disturbance; all over the globe. The remedy is inside you; you have to stay for a while; and you have to float in a moment. God has created everything in such perfection that you do not have to do anything for peace, happiness; you simply have to float.

Effortless remedy is lying inside you; and you created havoc; you made atom; for peace; for happiness. When the universe is sitting on nuclear power; atom; then the result is before you; any time, any moment total disaster; destruction awaiting to strike; and you are searching peace, happiness, device; somewhere in your future. 

One more very effective remedy I have come across; law of attraction attracts; and what is that; let us; feel this...

God is here is inside you; and you are searching God somewhere else. You have refused to stop; because now you are so much used to this nonsense that you cannot stop; you will not believe. For believe you have to argue; and when you are convinced by reason; you will believe; and then your pilgrimage starts; you start visiting religious places; you take refuge in religion; you start searching God all over; and God; life  keeps passing unnoticed. his is what your belief has given you. 

How peace will come to you; happiness will come to you? You have to control your mind; and for this; you have to meditate. You have to understand life; and for this you have to meditate. You have to know you; and for this you have to meditate. Unless you are relaxed in awareness nothing will happen; and relaxation comes through meditation. 

Relax; stay in a moment; meditate; float and meet your Life...all the best...
