Don't get stuck, just move

3. External Influence u r aware.
Laziness.
When u r lazy, it is a negative taste; u simply feel u have no energy, u simply feel dull, u simply feel dead.
When u r non-doing, u r full of energy, radiant, perfectly aware.
The mind can trick u and rationalise laziness as non-doing.
The msg says that this poolside resort is not ur final destination. The journey isn't over. Ur complacency might have arisen from a real sense of achievement, but now its time to move on. No matter how fuzzy the slippers, how tasty the pina colada, there are skies upon skies still waiting to be explored.

4. What is needed for resolution?
Guilt
Guilt is one of the most destructive emotions in which we can get caught. To let ourselves be overwhelmed with guilt is to invite a migraine. We end up surrounded by nagging clouds of self-doubt and feelings of worthlessness to the point where we cannot see any of the beauty and joy that life is trying to offer us.
U r absolutely ok as u are, and it is absolutely natural to go astray from time to time. Just learn from it, move on and use the lesson not to make same mistake again.

5. The Understanding
Moment to Moment
The past is no more and the future is not yet.
The present is the golden gate. And u can be in the present only if u r not ambitious - no accomplishment, because ambition leads u into the future.
A man who wants to be present has not to think, has just to see and enter the gate. Experience will come but experience has not be premeditated.

Step lightly and non-seriously, and at the same time absolutely balanced and alert.

Life is a great ocean u can play if u drop all ur judgements, ur preferences, and the attachment to the details of ur long term plans. Be available to what comes ur way, as it comes. And don't worry if u stumble or fall; just pick urself up, dust urself of, have a good laugh and carry on.

Father, I felt great today. I have not felt this energetic for a longwhile now. Infact, for the past few weeks, I felt sleepy during breathing awareness.

I finally found the key. To accept my natural resistance in my path. Don't have to feel guilty for having the resistance despite wanting. It is at times ok to have the cake and eat it too. I never seem to be able to do that. Forever, conscientious.

Sadhguru
Don't waste ur life trying to look better than someone else. Instead of looking at what u want in ur life, first establish ur way of being. Once u have set ur priority as to how u want to be, then whatever has to come will come. It depends on how capable u r to make things happen. But first settle how u want to be.

Soul
Father, was disappointed in F. I was curious and she view it as patronising. She really has an issue. How come they don't mind how they show up when they proclaimed that they on the path?
So, looks like I m hard on myself. I would have felt guilty for even thinking, don't talk about telling it out.
Anyway, I apologised and she shared that I sounded like the boss. She still has issue on superiority complex to work on.

Osho
People who don't feel fed up with themselves are in a wrong situation; they are in danger, they will never change. There is no need for them to change. They will go on revolving in the wheel - they are mechanical people.
The first ray of consciousness in u - that u feel fed up.

Soul
Exactly. People tell me why bother and etc. I didn't listen and I proceed.
Father, I seem to have guilts cos too high a conscience. Loosen up and I may loosen my joints too.

Osho
When u r fed up, just sit silently with closed eyes, not doing anything. Start sitting passively and do more passive meditations.
And through that inwardness, ur centering will arise. Through that awareness, new interests, new enthusiasm, new style, a new way to live will come.

Soul
I am on the right track.

Osho
Stand on the crossroads, think, meditate, but once u decide then forgot all other alternatives - move.
Once u decide to move, your whole energy is needed there. Don't be split and don't let half of ur mind think of alternatives. There is no certainty that u r bound to be right. U may be wrong but there is no way to know it unless u follow the road to the very end, all the way.

U move on the road - right or wrong is irrelevant. The very moment gives u growth. To me it is not the question of where u go. To me, the most important thing is that u r not stuck, but going. Even if this road comes to a dead end and it leads nowhere and u have to come back, nothing to worry about. It is good that u went.
And one has to move many wrong roads before one comes to the right one.
The only important thing is not to be stuck somewhere. Don't just stand on the crossroads, hesitating, not going anywhere. Don't make hesitation ur habit.
