Question for group.

[Guest guest]

hi,

 

dont pretend. let those who think you are "strange" continue to think so. At the same time, perhaps be internally friendly with them.

 

regards.

[RamanaMaharshi] Question for group.

 

I recently found this group and I must say that the tought of having

people with same interests to talk about is very refreshing. And

that is mostly because fot 2 years now, my life is considerably

diferent. I find myself stuck in this search for Truth and it seems

that I cannot escape.

Now, the problem is that people that used to be called friends look

at me like some kind of freak. That is ofcourse of no importance to

me but still the question remains.... Is this a normal thing to

happend? Am I on the rigth path?(whatever that is). I lost interest

in almost all the things that used to be my life, and now I can't

get rid of this constant preocupation for "who I am"...

When I go deep in this self inquery I have a strange felling, like

everything that was certain to me becomes a joke, the "I" thought

seems to be just a dirty glass that modify the perception of

reality. And the only thing that remanis is "I am", with no other

word worthy to be put after this sentence.

Anyway, what is important is what to do now? Sould I pretend to be

somebody else just to please people around me or sould I do what I

feel, and that is to let things happend and not worry?

PS: Please excuse my english:}

Account of Mercedes De Acosta from her book Here Lies the Heart.

Before leaving the Ashram, Bhagavan gave me some verses he had selected from the Yoga Vasishta. He said they contained the essence for the Path of a Pure Life.

Steady in the state of fullness which shines when all desires are given up, and peaceful in the state of freedom in life, act playfully in the world, O Bhagava! Inwardly free from all desires, dispassionate and detached, but outwardly active in all directions, act playfully in the world, O Bhagava! Free from egoism, with mind detached as in sleep, pure like the sky, ever untainted, act playfully in the world, O Bhagava! Conducting yourself nobly with kindly tenderness, outwardly conforming to conventions but inwardly renouncing all, act playfully in the world, O Bhagava! Quite unattached at heart but for all appearance acting as with attachment, inwardly cool but outwardly full of fervor, act play- fully in the world, O Bhagava!

I sorrowfully said farewell to Bhagavan. As I was leaving he said, "You will return here again." I wonder. Since his physical presence has gone I wonder if I shall. Yet often I feel the pull of Arunachala as though it were drawing me back. I feel the pull of that Sacred Hill of which he was so much a part, and where his mortal body lies buried.
