Accepting myself is loving myself

Oct 16
Woke up before alarm at 4.16 am. Body feels rested. Maybe due to half hour Samyama before sleep. This is the second time I tried and had a good sleep and wake up good. Thanks to tip from Pa.

Did guru pooja with focus, noticed another error. Continue to learn.
Did one cycle of Surya kriya followed by asanas, they were fine.
Shakti was good full focus on Kapala Bhakti and initial breathing. Now need to work on final breathing.
Shambavi was good. Towards the end, just contentment; feeling settled.
Only some tots and very little of past.

Father, I project my goodness on others and got hit. Others project their badness to me instead. Learn to see the truth.

The Divided Self
Jesus said the love of others is modelled on our own self regard.
U shall love neighbour as urself  - the quality of my love for others will be the same quality as my love for myself.
Our valuing for others will be in direct correspondence with our valuing of ourselves.

Soul
Mine is reversed. My value of myself is in direct response up others value of me. This got to change.


The divided self
The sequence of cause and effect is clear: we don't love others because we don't love ourselves. We don't know how to love others because we don't know how to love ourselves and we can't love ourselves because we have been told not to.

Was browsing my Blog and saw someone reading this posting back in Sept 2009; 4 years ago.

God is happening. This is what life is all about. The moment u accept urself, u become open, u become vulnerable, u become receptive. The moment u accept urself, then there is no need for any future, because there is no need to improve on anything. Then, all is good as it is. In that experience, life starts taking a new colour, a new music arises.

Soul - same msg as Sadhguru. I felt the msg is tellin me that m on d right track. Don't stop. Its ok to receive. Don't be fearful. I am thinking of 3rd level meditation more becos of Sadhguru rather than me. Mmm, falling again but this time not as fearful that I lost me. Resentful that I have to let go of food and do volunteering. Resentful I have to give myself. Not willing to pay the price to receive and hence I judged the giving.

If u accept urself, that is the beginning of accepting all. If u accept urself, u hav accepted God. Then there is nothing else to do but to enjoy, to celebrate. Then joy is good and sadness is good, then to be with ur beloved is good and to be alone is good. Then whatsoever happens is good because it happens out of God.
When u stop improving upon urself, life improves u. In that relaxation, in that acceptance, life starts caressing you, life starts flowing through you. And when u don't have any grudge, no complaint, you bloom, you flower.
And the whole existence starts pouring its energy into u when u are open. Then the trees are greener than they look to u, then the sun is sunnier.

Don't lose this thread that has fallen into ur hands. Accept urself as u are. And that is the most difficult thing in the world because it goes against ur training, ur education, ur culture.
