Sadhguru - Love is just a vehicle for oneness

Jul 8
After enduring an unexpected traffic jam, finally reach my new breakfast place. Unfortunately there were no bread since they were close yesterday. The old me would have reacted. The new me take it in and walked over to opposite restaurant. Got myself an Indian fry bread instead. To my surprise the sauce was good and bread is okay too.

Yesterday evening practice was awesome. Body was shaking non stop for quite a long while. Then went into peaceful Shoonya.

This morning Angamardana was okay. Breathing was fine. Shakti was great, I laugh loads. Also couple of times I think I got the right Kapala Bhakti sound. This is truly another level. Shambavi was good too. Plough back was good too.


Today realised that I got bruised from last Sunday massage. But the shoulder is good. Will go again in one week to clear all the knots. Massage is good for me.

Life and death in one breathe
Love is a huge longing up include the other as a part of urself. That which is not u right now, u want it to become u. It starts from gathering simple things around you, to seeking spirituality or God. The fundamental longing up have a larger slice of life than what u have right now.
It does not matter how intensely you approach it,  you will see it almost there and it falls apart. It gives u a taste of oneness but ever establishes u there.
Love is just a vehicle for oneness. What u are longing for is that oneness.
Emotion or love is just one more vehicle to get there, but it is a vehicle which takes u close to the other bank and turns u around  - it never lands u there. When u get sufficiently mauled by the process of love, u will be ready for Grace.

There are two longings: one to preserve urself and another is to continuously expand. These two things are not opposing forces but are related to two different aspects of who u are.
Self preservation needs to be limited to physical body. It is only ur body that need to be preserved, everything else can be mauled and demolished and rebuilt everyday. Everyday in the morning u can actually get up and build a whole new personality.
