Sense of self

[Guest guest]

â¯Sat nam, i am challenged with asking for support from others i have not been

able to trust again yet. As i write this i realize that i already have had to

reach out to some. It feels like time is passing so quickly for me and that i

do not feel i have enough time to heal or acknowledge what is alreadly ocurring.

I am alreadly feeling a sense of loss in myself and that many a times my spoken

" voice " goes unheard or not understood. How does one reconcile this sense of

loss in oneself? â®

Sat Nam, " Peaceful One " -

In a situation like this there are always three components: You, Others, and

Wahe Guru. There is always Wahe Guru because Wahe Guru is the core and the

essence of everything, and every situation. One of the most " cutting through "

cutting edge teachings of Siri Singh Sahib Yogi Bhajan was this: " Don't call on

people, call on God ('Wahe Guru'). " Every other person is already locked into

the same problem you are - " How to get out of the bondage of ego and into the

freedom and wise awareness of Wahe Guru. " Everyone you're hoping to help you is

afflicted by the same problem you are. Your hope for " them " to solve your

problem is an illusion. Within that same illusion, when " they " have problems

that may sometimes call on you, or others. And if you're a kind person that

doesn't yet understand the reality and nature of Wahe Guru, you may attempt to

help them directly. You can't. Wahe Guru is the " first help " in every

situation, so that co-operation and human collective situations can become

functional rather than dysfunctional. We can relate to ego (our own or those of

others) or Wahe Guru, the reality that is egoless and pure. If ego mixes into

your solution, there will always be a dis-solution, and the solutions will all

eventually fail. Ergo, witness human history. All or most of the past

solutions no longer work. And here are at the global human threshold of

frustration, which is also the global human threshold for evolution.

 

" We simply have to stop doing things the way we always have - egocentrically. "

Those who stop successfully will have evolved, and their problems will resolve.

Those who continue in the old, default way of egocentric wheeling and dealing

won't evolve, and their problems will go on forever, until they DO evolve.

 

So the question becomes, " How soon do you want your problems to be solved? "

Now? Or When? Or Never? When you take one step toward Wahe Guru, Wahe Guru

will instantly take millions of steps toward you. Otherwise, the " others " whom

you (rightly) don't trust to solve your problems, are probably too husy with

their own problems to pay much attention to real solutions for your problems.

Whereas that yogi, that person who has given all of his or her problems to Wahe

Guru lives " Care Free " (as Yogiji used to say). They are the Sevadars, the

Saints, the Bodhisattvas, the Spiritual Teachers who are unburdened by their own

issues to be able to impart the nature of the solution, which is " Don't call on

people, always call on Wahe Guru. " And pay attention to what happens, and what

happens next.

 

The most beautiful and vivid exemplar of this kind of awareness and response to

overwhelming problems is Guru Arjun Dev, who sat in bliss on a red hot iron

plate for 5 days, and smiled. When the Muslim Saint asked him " What was going

on? " Guru Arjun Dev ji responded by indicating that he was setting an example,

" setting the bar of performance " so to speak, that if any of his Sikhs might

ever be caught into similar circumstances, his example was the The Way to master

the situation, and to master oneself. Wahe Guru! Wahe Guru! Wahe Guru!

 

May you be so blessed that Wahe Guru lead you into yourself, out of your

dilemmas, and unto infinity in peace and happiness.

 

for many Blessings,

Krishna Singh
