Tomorrow Never Comes!

When we have a task to do, we often put it off by saying, 'I will do it tomorrow.' Little do we know that tomorrow does not actually exist! We are used to thinking that the time at our disposal can be split into three parts: past, present and future. What has already happened is in the past, what will or might happen belongs to the future, and what is happening now is the present. I can tell you that your fundamentals are completely wrong. There is only one period of time - now. There is no other aspect of time.

We are fond of saying, 'Tomorrow I will do this.' But, be very clear: when tomorrow comes, it will arrive only in the form of today - now. It never presents itself to you in the form of tomorrow. You can say, 'Tomorrow, I will be happy. Tomorrow I will become enlightened.Tomorrow I will do the meditation.' Please understand that the tomorrow you are thinking about is never going to arrive in the way you are thinking. It is arriving in the form of every moment - now.

Be very clear: again and again, you promise that tomorrow you will be happy, tomorrow you will be enlightened, tomorrow you will be joyful, because you do not yourself believe that these predictions will ever happen. You are simply finding reasons to postpone these things from happening.
