One should set the boundaries for how much you should forgive and for how long. It is alright to forgive if your forgiveness is really going to help the jerk. I never recommend forgiveness for the criminals. After all you are not a Buddha or a Gandhi. Do your best which you can do. Your love, meditation and friendliness should not become your weakness.

Religion says do not resist an evil person. If someone strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also.

That is true but how many times? It is alright if he is slapping me but what if he is stabbing me? If you don’t resist the evil person one day he will become a serial killer. All good religions are teaching peace and love but their blind followers are throwing bombs.

The basic idea behind the forgiveness is to get free from the past. It is to free your mind and emotions from the negative thoughts. If your forgiveness is really going to help and change the jerk then go ahead, forgive him but if he is going to consider it as your weakness then you must think again. That’s why I say never stick to any principle.

If you are bursting with anger then what is the use of forgiveness. It is a simple arithmetic that you should never forgive a person who consider himself stronger than you, who try to crush you or dominate you. In my view it is against spirituality.  Every strongest person has his own weaknesses. Jerks are over confident and over confidence is weakness.

If you live in the moment with total alertness then you are going to forgive people even for their greatest mistakes. But they are not going to forgive you for your kindness. A criminal is only a person who is living in sleep. If your forgiveness is going to disturb his sleep then go by all means but if not then you should give him shock treatment. One should always see what is needed in the particular situation.

Many people who are walking on the spiritual path have fixed views. Forgiveness is one of them. I’m absolutely for forgiveness. First forgive him and then give him a slap. There should be awareness behind your slap. Slap is just a metaphor. You can use your own strategy for punishment. Always see the seriousness of crime before you forgive someone. Punishment should be exactly proportionate to the crime he has done to you.

Spontaneous action or punishment coming from alertness is better than to forgive blindly. If you are alert and if you see that a good punch is absolutely needed in a particular situation then forget about Gandhi or Jesus. Again punch is just a metaphor. You can use a kick, you can use verbal abuse, you can go to the police or you can take legal action. You can use any destruction policy which you find appropriate in the moment. One should use his creativity. Free style meditation means you should be able to spontaneously move in any direction according to the need of the situation. Destruction is a part of creation.

Sometimes a person needs Homeopathy, sometimes Ayurveda, sometimes Allopathy and sometimes he may need surgery. Good punishment  is like a surgery. You should avoid it as long as possible but you can not avoid it permanently.  Sometimes it is the need of the situation.

Most of you, if you are doing martial art training, may know this principle, “Speed is a relaxed muscle contracting very quickly”. You can use this principle to speed up your alertness. You can come out of any negative emotion within a fraction of second. But you should develop this ability in day to day life so that you can use this principle effectively in any conflicting situation where emotions overwhelm you.

You should train yourself to suddenly detach yourself from your mind. It should happen very quickly and suddenly, like a flash of lightening. This ability is very useful. In this way you don’t watch your mind, emotions or thoughts but suddenly you step back and become aware of your whole body, your breathing and your surroundings. It happens in a fraction of second. There are no steps. This sudden alertness should be intense and speedy.

You can try this when you totally lose your mind. Suppose somebody insults you, you get hurt and you have lost your control. You are going to react and suddenly, like an accident you become alert and you stop. You look at your body, you feel your breathing and you are totally out. You become alert and you are out.

This is very effective strategy in any overwhelming situation. Don’t do any analysis, don’t judge or calculate. Just come out as if a dream is suddenly broken and become totally alert. And I say totally, not partially. Totally means one hundred percent not ninety-nine percent.

This way you suddenly move on. There is no way to look back. It’s over and you are out. It happens in an instant. Suppose you are cleaning your bathroom, suddenly stop and close your eyes and look within and feel your breathing and feel your whole body but this should not happen in sequence. It should happen simultaneously, not step by step but quickly. One moment you are in a dreamy state and the very next moment you are completely alert, one hundred percent.

If you can do this then you will never feel afraid of any negative emotion because you will know how to knockout your mind within a second. Develop quickness and power. You don’t have much time. You cannot afford to waste months and months to come out of a negative state. You have to break it within a moment. The moment you feel uncomfortable, realize that something is going wrong in your mind, instantly become alert. Be quick and intense.

In this way you escape from the hold of negative mindset or emotions before they take roots in your mind.

One last thing you should be relaxed and not tense up while practicing this whole shit. Do it swiftly but there should be no tension. You should do it softly. Be relaxed but quick, as quick as lightening. Suddenly bring your whole attention to the present moment. In the beginning of this post I said, “Speed is a relaxed muscle contracting very quickly”. But here you are doing exactly opposite. One moment you are tense, angry or panic and suddenly you throw the whole thing and you become totally alert and relax.

If you drink alcohol then you can try this to know how it actually works. It is strange but my meditation techniques works better for alcoholic people then for normal people. Anyway, after three or four drinks when you feel intoxicated and your body gets drowsy and heavy suddenly shake your body, throw out a deep breath and instantly become alert and throw the euphoria within a fraction of second and become totally normal as if nothing has happened. But do it very softly and naturally. Other people should not know what is happening.

Develop a knockout power in your alertness. The moment you realize or notice that you are in hell next moment you should be in the heaven. Fear, anxiety, anger, panic all these emotions are like hell. These emotions will come again and again in your life. Once you master this way to handle your mind you will spend very less time in negativity. Uncomfortable feelings are like signals. Once you get the signal, suddenly you should become alert. Don’t spend hours and hours to deal with negativity. You should spend at the most five seconds in any negative emotions. Buddy, you deserve the best life.

I say you can wipe out your strongest negative emotions within a second then why to waste years and years in therapy and techniques? There is no need to chase any guru. They are nonsense, they occupy your whole life like cancer and don’t left any space for you. They are hanging on your walls and in your neck-less. It is all nonsense.

Whenever negativity arises just clear the ground and move on.

I said practice coming out of mind within a second.

Mind it!

Do it thousands of time every day. Break the cycle again and again. Don’t sit in meditation, do it while you are walking, driving, talking. Do it everywhere, do it anytime. Do it in your bathroom, on your commode. After all this is a free style meditation. Everything is holy. Even your commode is holy, that’s why they say holy shit.

Do it even in sleep. In the middle of night if you wake up, suddenly become fully alert. Remember again, I say fully! Hundred percent alert. The moment you wake up, don’t open the eyes just become fully alert with your eyes closed. Within a second gather yourself, collect yourself. Most of the time we are scattered into the peaces. So collect yourself. Focus on the moment, feel your body, feel your breath, listen to the sounds or silence around, notice warmth or coldness in the weather. Be completely detached from the mind. Relax, don’t be tense. Do it smoothly. Nobody should know what you are doing, otherwise they will think that you are silly. Keep it secret.

No!

Time is not a great healer. Time does not heal anything. Time only suppress your wounds deep into the subconscious. It does not heal anything. The best time to heal anything is NOW! You can heal your wounds only in the present moment. You can not depend on the future. Because if you live with the pain, agony and anguish, in time your mind will only become more dull. You have to deal with your pain, suffering and bad memories right now. If you keep it for the future then you will have to dig the grave of the past or it will bubble out time to time at the most unexpected moments. You will have nightmares.

Best place for the healing

The best place for all the healing work is your bathroom. When you are going through a bad phase, humiliation, sadness and extreme pain, when the wound is fresh, alive and throbbing close yourself into the bathroom. Stand in front of the mirror and start laughing. At first it will be like a fake laughter. But slowly, slowly it will transform into a great laughter. You will see a great transformation taking place in front of you. Learn to laugh on yourself in the worst situation.

If you can laugh on yourself while you are actually going through the bad phase then it’s something totally new phenomenon for the brain and specially for the ego. It will get surprised. Remember only ego can get hurt, only ego can become sad and only ego can suffer. If you laugh in this situation you will break the conditioning or mechanical response. Many times you go through a bad phase in life which continue for months and years. You may loose your balance again and again. Don’t get discouraged.

Play with your bad memories

Even if you loose balance for some time, it’s just ok. When you feel little bit relaxed, again close your eyes and go through that bad experience. Look at yourself how you behaved when you lost your balance. Notice your embarrassment and just say, ‘this is ridiculous’. Play with those images which make you fearful and create embarrassment in your mind. Make them more ridiculous and fearful. Make them bright and life size. Make them 3 dimensional as if it is happening NOW. Laugh out loudly and say, ‘Hey look, this is me, this is ridiculous’. Play this scenario in your mind again and again until you get fade up. It will take at the most 10 to 15 minutes to get totally fade up of that scene but it will never bother you again in the future. Otherwise people live with bad memories for years and years. You can get over any bad memory within few minutes.

Of course you may loose your balance again but it’s just fine. Now you know the trick. It is your mind. It need some entertainment so it will go again to the sad memories, it will again play the role of victim. That’s the only way ego can survive. If there is no problem in your life the ego will die. So it will create problem, embarrassments, sadness and all kind of bullshit which you can not imagine. A sad person or a victim has a strong ego. He can not let go. So again he will dig the grave, he will scratch the wounds. So you have to deal with the wounds again and again until you really get fade up.

Take a strong belief, for example, “I will come out like shining gold after going through all this bullshit”, imagine you are holding this belief in your hands and close your eyes. Go through all those bad memories which are giving you trouble. Create all those scenes and events in which you were not aware and you become a victim of sadness and embarrassment. Run that movie again and imagine yourself floating above those memories like a cloud and hold that belief near your heart, “I will come out like shining gold after going through all this bullshit”.  Do this exercise for few minutes. Open your eyes and you will feel much, much better than before.

You will be surprised to know that all bad situations and events are just images in your brain. You can only suffer as long as you get identified with those images. It is not object or situation that makes you scared but it is your brain that makes you scared. You can change those mental pictures, make them funny or distort them. You can stop that running movie and turn it into a black and white static image just like an old photograph of your grand father and hang it on your imaginary wall.

The above picture remind me  the following story which I read somewhere many years ago. I think this is the simple solution for almost all of our problems and complicated situations. A problem is not a static state, it goes through many phases. There are many dimensions, views, perspectives and complications. If you keep analyzing the problem then it is never ending. If you discuss your problem with experts, friends and people to get some solution then it will become even worst because they have different opinions, judgements and views. But see what happens when you just accept the whole situation and say: “Is that so?”

The story

The Zen master Hakuin was praised by his neighbors as one living a pure life.

A beautiful Japanese girl whose parents owned a food store lived near him. Suddenly, without any warning, her parents discovered she was with child.

This made her parents very angry. She would not confess who the man was, but after much harassment at last named Hakuin.

In great anger the parents went to the master. “Is that so?” was all he would say.

After the child was born it was brought to Hakuin. By this time he had lost his reputation, which did not trouble him, but he took very good care of the child. He obtained milk from his neighbors and everything else the little one needed.

A year later the girl-mother could stand it no longer. She told her parents the truth – that the real father of the child was a young man who worked in the fishmarket.

The mother and father of the girl at once went to Hakuin to ask his forgiveness, to apologize at length, and to get the child back again.

Hakuin was willing. In yielding the child, all he said was: “Is that so?”

In this story Hakuin is innocent and an innocent person never try to defend himself. He is not so called moral saint with a calculative mind. He don’t bother about his public image or what people think about him. He is just a witness. His acceptance and innocence is total.

A friend called me in the morning, “I don’t want to get married, in fact I’m not interested at all but my parents are insisting too much and I’m also afraid what people and friends will think? I’m confused. I may get married under pressure but it is not my wish. There is no particular reason for not getting married. I’m simply not interested in producing children and spending rest of the life in fulfilling unwanted responsibilities. I feel all this very boring. I have got hundreds of ways to live life happily. I’m financially stable and healthy. I’m not a coward and I’m not running away from the life. But still I feel if I don’t get marry then my parents will become sad. Now what shall I do?”

I said, “Listen to the heart!”

I often get mails regarding this question. Some friends asked me whether I should get marry or not. Just listen to the heart, your heart is more important then my opinion. Go with your heart. If it says “yes” to get married then go for marriage, if it says “no” then don’t go. Then don’t bother about public opinion. Don’t live according to the rules of the society, create rules for yourself. You are right as long as you don’t harm anyone. If your parents get miserable just because you are not getting married then it is their problem, they are expecting something impossible from you. They gave birth to you, their duty is finished. Of course you must look after them, love them and take care of them but you should live according to your vision. Otherwise your whole life will become miserable.

In every area of life you should take counsel of your own heart. Before taking any decision you must ask your heart what is good for you. Only your heart knows what is right for you. Courage automatically comes when you live your hearts dream. Never settle for cheap alternatives and public opinions. Remember, this is a part of meditation.

Be an authentic man. Don’t hesitate. Live your own vision of truth. Be truthful to yourself. You are not obliged to fulfill others expectation.

Your only obligation in any lifetime is to be true to yourself. Being true to anyone else or anything else is not only impossible, but the mark of a fake messiah. ~ Richard Bach (Illusions)

One of my friend has another problem, his father wants him to join military. His father was in military and his grandfather also worked in military so his father wants to continue the chain. The boy is not interested to join military. He is not interested in killing people. And there are many ways to serve the nation. Even if you become a doctor, engineer, software developer you are serving the nation. You don’t need to go on the border. You can also become a farmer. If everyone join the military who will produce crops?

So live your own vision, live your own dream. You know all the answers you need. You are the master. Listen to the heart and believe in yourself. Everyone has vision, every heart speaks but most of the people prefer to live according to public opinions and try to fit in the society. The rules of the society are good for an average man.

Listen to the heart, your heart has a vision! ~MG

I remember I used to draw sketches on my notebooks and books when I was in school. My teachers always punished me for this habit but it was an uncontrollable urge to draw. I can not stop when I see a piece of paper. I just draw something or at least sign on the blank paper. My signature also looks like painting. When I opened bank account, bank manager said if you could not make the same signature you will not be able to withdraw money from your account and I draw the same signature beside the previous signature.  So it is in blood.

Live your passion. Don’t compromise.

Ask your heart before you choose a profession. Do what you love even if you become a beggar. Money is not everything. Mostly immature people attract towards money, power and politics. If your hearts says to become a web designer then go for it, if your heart says to become a software developer then go for it, if you want to become a blogger then go for it, if you want to draw paintings then draw paintings. Live your life according to your own vision because it’s YOUR life and YOU are responsible for everything and you get this life only once. It is YOUR canvas.

The world is your exercise-book, the pages on which you do your sums.
It is not reality, although you can express reality there if you wish. You are also free to write nonsense, or lies, or to tear the pages. ~ Richard Bach (Illusions)

Jealousy means dissatisfaction with ‘who am I’ and ‘what I have got’. Jealousy comes naturally and effortlessly when you compare yourself with others. You want to be like someone who has more power, more riches, more beauty, more talent and when you are unable to achieve the desired effect, you get jealous. You want to have that beautiful woman and unfortunately she loves someone else and there is jealousy.

Once you get trapped into jealousy it will suck your all energy and creativity. A mind which is occupied with jealous thoughts will definitely loose all creativity, charm and grace. Jealousy also creates inferiority complex. You feel jealous of someone means you are giving a lot of attention and importance to other person and accepting that he/she is better than you. This pattern will create inferiority complex. Then things will become more complicated. This jealousy may manifest on physical level as discomfort and illness which has no remedy in medical science. Recently I meet a person who had a paralysis attack just because his junior got promotion before him. Doctors are doing physiotherapy and massage but actually his soul need to be massaged.

Love-break is another cause of jealousy. A common face and boring person with dumb-ass IQ level suddenly becomes the most important person in your life just because he/she rejected you. And many people (not you) loose their mental balance. This person becomes the center of attraction in your life. You feel jealous of that person who has stolen your beloved. I have a good news for those unfortunate heartbroken lovers that there are thousands of beautiful women searching for a macho man like you in shopping malls and there are thousand of boys looking for a dolly polly girl like you on the streets. So don’t waste time in jealousy, hatred and regret. Use that time in window shopping and evening walks.

Jealousy is total wastage of time and most of the people are busy with comparing themselves with others and finding what is missing in their life and occupied with jealousy. You feel jealous because neighbour has a beautiful wife and at the same time that bastard also hates you for the same reason.

This jealousy has manifested on all levels. Pakistan is jealous of India, India is jealous of China, China is jealous of America and America is jealous of all countries which they find their competitors.

Everyone is busy in trying to prove somehow that I’m better than you. One of my friend often says that other women in her office feel very jealous of her because she looks more cute than others. One day I asked her, “but you are fat and overweight….?” She replied, “Yes, I’m fat and overweight but at least I have a cute face, they don’t have even that!”.

We pass this gift of jealousy to our next generations. We teach our children to compete with others. We teach them ambition which is different face of jealousy. Jealousy is a subtle violence.

Jealousy shows that you don’t love yourself. If you really love and respect yourself then how can you feel jealous of others? In jealousy and competition you loose self respect. If you really want a quick remedy on getting free from jealousy than awaken the fire of love in your heart.

“Life is full of beauty.

Notice it.

Notice the bumble bee,

the small child, and the smiling faces.

Smell the rain, and feel the wind.

Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams.”

~Ashley Smith

Life is beautiful but only for those who have a sense of beauty. The mind becomes dull if it is constantly engaged in everlasting struggle of life. Without a beautiful heart how can you look at beauty? Beauty is not only in the face but also in the heart which is looking at the face.

Without love there is no beauty and there is no creativity. If you find only ugliness in life then something is wrong with you. It is your state of mind. Beauty is reality. It is not on the canvas. A beautiful painting is just a reflection of real beauty.

This moment is beautiful if you are sensitive and alert. Just close your eyes and feel your breathing, feel your heart pumping, feel the sensations of your cloths and listen to the sounds around you. Feel that you are alive and throbbing with energy. You don’t have to imagine anything, just feel what is already there, a beautiful mechanism, which is working silently, your body! This mechanism is so strange and complicated that it’s actually beautiful.

“Beauty is how you feel inside, and it reflects in your eyes. It is not something physical.” Sophia Loren (Italian film Actress)

Once you feel the beauty of being alive then you will be able to feel the beauty everywhere. Because the same mechanism working everywhere. This same mechanism is alive and throbbing with energy in flowers, birds, trees, animals and everywhere. Then you will know what beauty is.

Beauty is the fragrance of loving heart. You don’t love a woman because she is beautiful, but she is beautiful because you love her.

“The most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched; they must be felt with the heart” ~ Helen Keller (American Author and Educator who was blind and deaf)

Concentration or focused attention is very much respected by society. Parents want to teach children how to concentrate and memorize. And many people complain that they can not remain focused on one subject. Well, this is a misconception. Anger is concentration, hurt is concentration. All suffering is nothing but focused attention. All of us are having good concentration skills. The problem comes when you want to focus on something in which you are NOT interested. For example a student is not interested in maths but he  want to focus on maths only to pass the exams.

You are already master in concentration. If you don’t believe me then watch yourself when you are angry. You are so focused in anger that you forget everything. People can not stop smoking or drinking because of strong concentration. All suffering which comes after breakup is nothing but concentrated focus on a single person. If you can not forgive someone for years means you are totally focused on that person. This shows that you can remain focused on something for years.

Mind automatically get focused on the topic in which it is interested. Whether it is good or bad it doesn’t matter. You feel angry or hurt because it gives your ego good feeling. You feel like you are important.

You don’t need to develop the skills of concentration, instead find the area in which you are most interested and you will get easily successful.

The students which are always on the top in school exams may considered as intelligent just because they are on the top. But in latter years other boys, who are having more social skills, confidence, and common sense, who are more focused on money and power may get more successful. This so called intelligence (which is the outcome of concentration) is relative and only time being. The object of concentration will change according to your change in interest.

You will be considered as a genius as long as you are focused on something in which you are interested and easily getting success. But you can be also considered as a fool if people could not understand your genius. The view of society about a successful man is very narrow. Basically it is based on money or social states. Money can easily hide your stupidity.

Meditation is NOT concentration; a meditative person is not focused on anything. He is just present. That’s why concentration on breathing is not meditation. Suppose you are totally focused on breathing and forget everything, then it is not meditation. Every year thousands of people travel all around the world and waste money to learn such kind of stupid things. What they teach in meditation camps is nothing but concentration. Meditation camps are concentration camps because along with stupid techniques they also brainwash you. Meditation can not be taught in camps. You have to learn it yourself in daily activities.

Earning money, balancing relationships, enjoying life, learning new skills, making new friends and achieving goals everything is part of meditation. It is not running away from life. Meditation is very balancing act. A meditative person is not introvert or extrovert. He is just balanced.

A person trying to concentrate can easily get disturbed, because he is fighting, resisting and trying his best to remain focused on ‘one thing’. A meditative person can not be disturbed because he is not forcing himself to remain focused. He is simply present. Forced alertness or awareness is not meditation, it is concentration.

Meditation is to simply being with yourself in the moment. And concentration is to leave yourself and focus on some point in time and space.

Marriage is a social union or legal contract between people that creates kinship. One thing is certain that there will be problems whether you get married or not. So you have to find out what is suitable for you.  If you are confused about getting married or not then ask yourself what exactly you want? Don’t be hurry and don’t settle for incorrect choices just because age is passing. If you get into a wrong relationship then life will become more complicated and if you have children then problem will get even worst. Then if you decide to break up and divorce it may cost you great financial and emotional loss.

If you want to get married then remember that you deserve the best and go for it. Don’t settle for average partner who is neurotic, alcoholic, mentally sick, abusive, vulgar, drug addict, dishonest (but handsome), boring (but beautiful), beautiful (but cold), having expectations which no one can fulfill, resistant, melodramatic, selfish, dominating, demanding, suicidal, gay (but software engineer in America), egoistic, manipulative or foolish (but rich), sexy but having zero interest in sex (this is horrible!), the great gambler, dashing street fighter, self centered non charming beauty queen etc.

You may feel that all doors are closed by now. No one is perfect.

Marriages are NOT made in heaven. Marriage is the concept of hell. In my view it is a prison. It gives a sense of security but there is deep insecurity in that institution. Your spouse may find better option than you. You may be handsome, beautiful, sexy or rich it doesn’t matter. People need variety. In fact it is boring to live with a single person for whole life. If you are lucky and you get a good partner than it is OK, but most of the time it does not happen. Soon you loose interest in each other.

People who get married within one or two years of love affairs are desperate and mentally weak. They are afraid of break ups and public opinions. There is no such thing as love at first sight. There are millions of potential partners all around the globe. The ideal age for marriage is after 40 and ideal partner for marriage is one who loves you more than 7 years. (Still I’m very doubtful…)

Before getting married or finding a partner write down what exactly you want from this relationship and which qualities you want in your partner. First be clear. What kind of person you want in your life. Make a huge list. Don’t get impressed just because the person is attractive or handsome. Scan the person very deeply. Look if there is any ugly, dishonest, cunning face behind that cute face.

Never get emotionally dependent on anyone. It really doesn’t matter if you live single. In fact it is more fun. There are many beautiful people. Learn how to approach and meet new people anywhere, in the malls, hotels, on the streets and exhibitions. It is adventure. If you have hundreds of friends then you will never have a breakup.

And if you don’t want to go into any relationship then also it is good. There is no problem. There are many interesting things than love affairs and sex. In fact commitments, relationships and all the circus is very superficial, and have no meaning at all. It is like changing TV channels. If you have relationship with ten different people you will loose your all interest. That is the only reason Buddha leave his palace and run away in the jungle. Jean-Paul Sartre (a French existentialist philosopher) said, “The other is hell”.

The most intelligent,  strong and confident people mostly prefer to stay away from commitments and relationships, because there is no guaranty of tomorrow. A strong person accepts this uncertainty. Don’t fall into the trap of the society, remain single. The population is increasing. Air, water and food are polluted. This is not a safe place for your children.

Heraclitus (c.535–c.475 B.C., Greek philosopher of Ephesus) said that you can not step twice into the same river, and my friend, I say unto you that you can not sleep twice with the same person.

If you look at the right sidebar you will see a Spam Counter and it shows that there are more than 31,000 Spam comments which I received  in last 2 months. And I have to read them all so that I should not miss a single comment from a sincere reader.

I’m tired.

That’s the only reason I stop writing new  posts.

UPDATE: Spam issue is solved.

Anyway,  this moment, you are reading this post and THIS is the most precious moment in your life because YOU ARE ALIVE, this moment is the reality and this moment is the truth.

I believe you are AWARE and you are feeling your PRESENCE.

THIS is life.

Everything else is just thought and imagination. Thought is not life. You can never understand life through thinking.

Thinking and imagination is the root of all evil and sorrow. This moment if you are aware and if there is no thought of future or past then you are FREE.

This is what enlightenment is.

You don’t need to go through all meditation and practicing virtue. You just need to come out of your dreamy state. It takes only few seconds.

I’m living it since last 15 years without getting bored or suffering so can you. It is the most easiest thing in life you can do for yourself and it is more valuable than getting a millionaire or becoming world famous.

You can not suffer if you live moment to moment but if you live in ‘time’, if you live in the ‘past or future’, if you live in your ‘personal story’ then there is no way out from endless suffering.

All your wealth, power, success, achievements, love affairs, relationships and marriages are root of your suffering. They may give you momentary happiness and joy but in long run you must know ‘who you really are’, otherwise you will die in ultimate frustration.

And the shortest possible way to freedom is to AWAKE… HERE and NOW!

Nobody can help you and there is no technique! Only you are responsible. You can help your children not by giving them the best education but by helping them to get awaken from this dreamy state of living which is the root of sorrow.

Everlasting happiness is not possible in achieving your dreams but in destroying all dreams!

Realize that you don’t have time, you can not  postpone it, tomorrow never comes.

It’s NOW or never!

Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose
