Give everything and take nothing Love is taking nothing and giving more
Give everything and take nothing
Janaka has said how business man drowns in this wave...giving less and giving more. Business means taking more and giving less. Love is taking nothing and giving more. Soul is doing business. Limited mind is wanting more and giving less. In any relation....I did everything but everyone must be loving....doing something to get recognition, privileges, love etc is business. In the name of devotion soul also wants material or some spiritual gain too. In this process, business man drowns himself. The limited individual becoming infinite in it's true nature....small desires etc dissolve in me.
Ashtavakra smiles on Janaka as a gardener sees it's garden bloom. As a king he recognized it.
Janaka is an emperor...has to govern entire country...crops,welfare...anyone not having welfare....if he isn't looking after anything...to look after everything....prosperity of everything...he had to be concerned...Ashtavakra smiles. Having known entire Universe as one self as one aatmaa indestructible...how you could find joy in process of accumulating wealth. So some country sell arms, nature, etc to other country to make themselves wealthy. Ashtavakra smiles and knows that he hasn't any interest but it is happening...when business becomes it's soul...it eats up. On the other hand, if business is in periphery, then it welfare country...it's strange and unique. Budha wear saffron............left everything. Janaka had kingdom had responsibilities more than any common person...so world and politics is not an impediment but is difficult.
Mother of pearl gives you false impression of silver.
You have limitation of experiences...anything that you give pleasure also after sometime gives you pain too. Everything is burning down and you are left with ashes but why our mind is always attracted. It's because you are ignorant about being or self. You get joy in Sex or alcohol is actually joy in self...where inner pool of sensation of pool overwhelms of cells are alived...it's state of light,love and joy. We all are living with current but it's not energized...sadhanas removes inertia...you become more and more alive. What is meant by silence...that is life...the source is blocked.
Where the knowledge of source...like silver in mother of pearl....like waves in ocean...the entire Universe is springing from me within....how will you...what is it that you are running after....semi conscious mind is source of desire. I am not preaching on anything...if desires are there...you have to be more and more conscious...you have heard me...you are world...joy...pure still you find yourself sinner because it's not getting registered. It's sort of why one is stuck in small things...just hearing doesn't come....be more alive...in morning you should feel infinite energy...you are wonderful.
Remembering our true nature...you are floating. Little irritation happen ...cockroach are singing...some X y z will irritate.. I am not saying you shouldn't get irritated...you are fed up with what...illusion in the mind is called about fleeting events of life. If you aren't irritated I the events of life..then you will be stuck forever.
....Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankarji
