There is change. Our body has undergone so many changes! If we look at our childhood photographs many times we will have to say “This is me”. Our friends may not recognize us. We would have looked very different when we were young. Our appearance would have changed. The body has changed in size and shape. Our thoughts have undergone many changes. The way we feel has changed, hasn’t it?

About a particular thing we would have felt good some days ago and then suddenly we would have felt not so good and then again we would have felt good! We identify ourselves by things that change.

Probing a little beyond that, when we say,”Oh I am a very angry person” we usually justify our position of being angry. In doing that we are actually hanging on to the past. This is just a moment, a fleeting one. It comes and goes. A thought comes and goes. And opinion changes, jobs change, relationships change, friends change. Everything around us keeps on changing. Whether we want or not, whether we like or not.

Yet we can hold on to that one thing which does not change in us. That is we ourselves! We must learn to be with that! Some centered point in us, has not changed. It is the same principle responsible for all the qualities of a flower! The colour, the shape, the size, the shape…The same intelligence is the entire creation.

When we realize this a grand unification happens in the consciousness. Our perception changes. Then, whenever we look at anything or we hear anything we do it sincerely. We merge with the feeling. There is a definite difference in the quality of perception that brings unification with the object of perception.

Success in life and success in the world or two things. Attending to the above-mentioned source, its inquiry and living in that joy and unconditional love, is real success in life! 

So friends let us accept the changes with a smiling face and become one with the changes without losing our centeredness and try to live happily and cheerfully.

Warna doondthe reh jaayenge...khushiyon ko...

Have a cheerful and joyful week end!

Keep smiling.

Chitra.
