Involvement is the Key to Life

Jan 3

Father, I will take up public speaking. Counseling nope.

Father, these few days breathing awareness, I can't seem to go into the connection. I watch my breathe but just aware and tot that I lost it. Tot I may need to proceed to samyama instead. When I was driving and watching my breathe, I too was conscious. Then I tot maybe, I can already do the breathe awareness without getting high. May be an improvement instead.
Father, thanks for Suria. This morning woke up with pain on left wrist, right elbow and right knee and ankle. I tot I cannot do suria and was planning to do asanas instead. But when I took the stand after guru pooja, I said, just let my body decide and it did suria. First cycle was bit difficult, but little pain and it was effortless thereafter. Thank U.

Yday message on Unleashing ur mind, go all the way.

An average American spend five to six hours a day looking at the television, being a spectator.
You have left the whole of life for others to live on ur behalf, and u ask where the meaning has gone; why u don't feel alive, why there is not some significance in ur life. Spectators cannot have significance - only participants, totally involved, intensely involved in every action.
It is doing that keeps ur juices running. If u r simply watching, ur own juices dry up. U just become a skeleton.

But the trouble is unless u start feeling some meaning in ur life, some joy arising in u, some fragrance surrounding u, u cannot fight for life. And life needs, for the first time in the history of man, to be fought for.

Meditation will create the necessary atmosphere. It will bring u back to action, back to love, back to meaning. And then, naturally u will see that it is time for something to be done. This beautiful earth should not die.
Don't be only a spectator. Rather, than just remaining in ur misery, start finding sources of life and mystery within urself. That is the only possibility for saving the whole world.

Same msg as Sadhguru - involvement. And frankly, I have been the most involved in my life. But I guess its still on selective mode.

Just got mail on new sathsang format. Saw that invocation is sahana vavatu and I can see resistance coming up. I guess I tot I was doing this as a favour and now its like more things to do. Father, thank U for the msg on involvement and willingness and for the pain. Cos, at least now I am acknowledging my resistance.

(Jan 24 - it turns out that I only need to do the sharing. So, being a sathsang guide is effortless)
