Good Morning Friends, I was reading following article and it was so nice, I like to share with you all. Not easy for all to understand I think but it’s really easy to follow once we understand it.
An average person always thinks he is above average. The perception of ‘easy and difficult’ is the result of one’s state of being. The self with arrogance is ego.
Swatting a fly is ‘difficult’ for some, while killing thousands is ‘easy’ for others like terrorists. Dropping the ego is easy when we realise that we are less than a dot in this vast cosmos. It is foolish to live with the illusion that we are the centre of the cosmos. Dropping ego becomes difficult when we have this illusion.
In any circle there is a centre and a circumference. If the centre of your life is hope then you will experience deficiency. If the centre of your life is enjoying the moment, living in the moment, being total in the moment… then hope will be a circumference… then it is not a problem.
Let kitchen items be in the kitchen and bathroom items be in the bathroom. If they are placed elsewhere, then there is a problem. There is no problem with ‘hope’ as such, as long as it is in the circumference and not in the centre. Be alive to the present.
