If you ask a person to tell us a brief summary of his/her life up to this point you would see that that person has created a reality of her own.
It is like going to a movie theater. You sit there in a seat and a projector behind you projects images on the screen . It is out there in front of you.
Just like this our mind projects the world in front of us out there and it is according to the thoughts emotions and feelings in us .
This reality is entirely your creation and it comes from a firm conviction that you are a limited entity
and you are dependent on others and other things for your completion.
This is the reason why we blame others for our problems. We create our own reality and it is
out there . This picture of our reality is different for each one . So how will it correspond .
Many of us don't even know this to be a fact and we strongly believe that life is one huge suffering.
All through your life you focus on what you don't want !!!
You always pray let that not happen to me let the situation resolve etc etc.
The reason why we do this is because is we don't really know what we want, but we know we don't want certain things.
why is that we are like this .. It is our conditioning. Nobody told us before what we are .We understood it from our own experience of reality , which is flawed anyway.So when somebody tells us that we are truly the ultimate we shake it off as though it is only wishful thinking.
This is where Krishna told Arjuna, I know what i am telling you is above you and you would never believe what i am telling you. So do one thing ..surrender to me completely. That way you can trust what i say and start living.
The important thing is not the surrender, it is the understanding . The guru is only the cause of the understanding
Once you reach the understanding nothing is required .
As sankaracharya says..
Na Bandhur Na Mitram Gurur Naiva Shishyah
Chidananda Rupa Shivoham Shivoham
When you truly realise what happens is you have full attention on everything. whatever you see in front of you, you are that. A painting or piece of music you become that . You see a person you become that . Fullly identified with all entities and fully in them.
There are no past or present in you. No divisions. no false sense of an away feeling .
There is infinite power here. If you say you want love you are that . If you say you want bliss you are that. It is not desire , it is just affirmation of what you have.
Nothing to interfere nothing to blur. Your true nature enables you to become anything you want.
Love is therefore the becoming of the other entity completely.
you realize that all through your life you have been hindered by something . Whatever you wanted it was out of your existence not in it.
Ashtavakra says to janaka..
15.16
Your ignorance alone
creates the universe.
In reality One alone exists.
There is no person or god
other than You.
.......
The sage is free.
His empty mind no longer projects
delusion, dreaming, dullness.
This state is indescribable.
