✨MOTHER✨
🌹
The most beautiful word on the lips of mankind is the word “Mother,” and the most beautiful call is the call of “My mother.” it is a word full of hope and love, a sweet and kind word coming from the depths of the heart.
The mother is every thing – she is our consolation in sorrow, our hope in misery, and our strength in weakness. She is the source of love, mercy, sympathy, and forgiveness. He who loses his mother loses a pure soul who blesses and guards him constantly.
Every thing in nature bespeaks the mother. The sun is the mother of earth and gives it its nourishment of hear; it never leaves the universe at night until it has put the earth to sleep to the song of the sea and the hymn of birds and brooks.
And this earth is the mother of trees and flowers. It produces them, nurses them, and weans them. The trees and flowers become kind mothers of their great fruits and seeds. And the mother, the prototype of all existence, is the eternal spirit, full of beauty and love.
From the book:
The Broken Wings
~ Khalil Gibran

Go into yourself. For a few moments every day, whenever you can get an opportunity, drop all games, just be yourself not a father, nor a mother, nor a son, nor a banker, nor a servant:
nobody.
These are all games. Find the interludes. Between two games, relax in, sink in, drown into your own being - and there is the answer.
~ Osho

ALWAYS RUNNING
Until awakening, in one way or another, we are always running through our life.
Running towards something we want, or away from something we don't want. We run and run and run and so it's no surprise that life often seems exhausting.
Until we recognize this habit we are always trapped by the two extremes of desire and fear, and no matter how much you can justify your behavior, you are still running moment after moment.
Your fear cannot protect you and your desire cannot lead you to happiness. Only a loving relationship with yourself and then all beings will serve you and bring a life that has true value.
May all beings be happy.

PERCEPTIONS ARE NEVER
THE TRUTH
When I first came to Bhagavan Ramana, I saw a bright light like the sun, with Bhagavan in the midst of it. Later on, I used to see a light between my eyebrows. On another occasion, I saw a big light come out from Bhagavan's head and fill the hall. In that light, everything disappeared, including Bhagavan. Only the feeling of 'I' remained, floating in a luminous void.
When I related these experiences to Bhagavan, he said, 'Yes, such visions do occur. To know how you look you must look into a mirror, but don't take that reflection to be yourself. What is perceived by our senses and the mind is never the truth. All visions are mere mental creations, and if you believe in them, your progress ceases. Inquire to whom the visions occur. Find out who ~is their witness. Stay in pure awareness, free from all thoughts. Don't move out of that state.'

Meditation demands an astonishingly alert mind; meditation is the understanding of the totality of life in which every form of fragmentation has ceased.
Meditation is a state of mind which looks at everything with complete attention, totally, not just parts of it. Meditation is one of the greatest arts in life - perhaps the greatest, and one cannot possibly learn it from anybody, that is the beauty of it. When you learn about yourself, watch yourself, watch the way you walk, how you eat, what you say, the gossip, the hate, the jealousy - if you are aware of all that in yourself, without any choice, that is part of meditation.
So meditation can take place when you are sitting in a bus or walking in the woods full of light and shadows, or listening to the singing of birds or looking at the face of your wife or child.

Our senses are all extroverted. The eyes open outward, the hands move, spread outward, the legs move into the outside, the ears listen to the outside noises, to sounds. Whatsoever is available to you is all opening to the outside; all the five senses move in an extroverted way. You start searching there--where you see, feel, touch. The light of the senses falls outside, and the seeker is inside.
This dichotomy has to be understood. The seeker is inside--but because the light is outside, the seeker starts moving in an ambitious way, trying to find something outside that will be fulfilling. It is never going to happen. It has never happened. It cannot happen in the nature of things because unless you have sought the seeker, all your search is meaningless. Unless you come to know who you are, all that you seek is futile because you don't know the seeker.

PRAYER
May the all-abiding Spirit dwelling within me, Make me a ready instrument in His Hand.
May He free me from all egotistic sense, And teach me to be wholly dependent on His Will.
May I forget all selfishness and limitation, And partake of His Divinity.

🕊 Why not surrender right now to the power which knows the way. Make up your mind that you're going to give up everything, mentally. You're going to let go of the past, the future, the present, you're doing this right now this minute. You're letting go of all your fears, all of your frustrations, all of your thinking. You are no longer concerned what's going to happen to you tomorrow, where you will be, where you won't be. You're not worried about a job, income, people places and things, you have found freedom, absolute freedom. This freedom will take care of you, will guide you, listen to it closely it'll tell you what to do at every turn.
This freedom is really you.🕊
