Look Inside Your Self With Awareness

Yes…do you all follow what I am trying to say? Anyone wants to clarify anything?

"But Swamiji, we don't even realize that we are carrying an image inside…"

Yes. Because we have never looked in. We go everywhere but inwards. Do you know, upto 80% of our energy is locked in this chakra! This chakra doesn't even need to be energized. It simply needs to be opened and activated, and the flood of energy flowing from it can transform your whole life!

If you look deeply inside yourself, you will understand that you are suffering because you always feel there is some mismatch between what you see and what you want to see. This 'what you want to see' is the image that you are carrying inside.

At least from now on, try to watch with awareness, the play of your mind in whatever you see. Try to catch the scenes as they are before your mind steps in and passes judgment on them. You will then see how subtly and seamlessly your mind plays in whatever you see, causing you to believe that there is something always wrong with what you see.

In Sanskrit, there are two phrases that teach us reality: Dhrishti Shrishti and Shrishti Dhrishti. Dhrishti Shrishti means seeing the world as it is, taking it as it comes; to welcome what is, as reality. Shrishti Dhrishti means seeing the world as we would like it to be, through our own colored lens, through our fantasies. The former leads to a peaceful life while the latter leads to suffering.
