This passage authored by Joan Tollison reminds me a simple song I used to listen and sing. It is written in my native lnguage Gujarati. "Na mage dodatun away." Do nut run aftrer you crave for. It will come on its own." There is deep truth and wisdom in this simple saying. How much energy and time we spend to see what is in our hand and looking for it somewhere else. What I am searching for is right here and now. Truth, Joy, Loving Kindness, Fulfillment and Peace abide right within me.
It is my coviction based on my personal experience that we do not need to look for getting blessings of life outside of us. They are born in unconditional love and selfless service and they thrive for ever. We do not need to look for it outside of ourselves. They dwell within us.
Awareness of what is helping me to remain awake and practicing mindfulness meditaion regularly help me to walk on the path.
Namste!
