Guest guest Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 all are fallible, our deeds are fallible, our language, our speech are fallible is it possible to express exactly via our speech what we feel, what we intent and what we experience? is it possible to communicate in such a way as to not hurt the ego of someone or other? Dadashri's prayer asking for " infinite inner strength not to hurt the ego of anyone " is a tall order; that's why " infinite inner strength " is needed and yet consistent( not necessary literally but in essence ) with Christ's teaching to " love our enemies " and with Amma's teaching to " see God in everyone, in everything " and in the universal teaching to " forgive others and ourselves and our past " all of above are tall orders and may seem impossible at times, but only as long as we remain obstinately in the head as soon as our awareness drops from head to heart, where are all the thoughts that were responsible for all the raucous? what happens to all the thoughts when we fall asleep? doesn't Amma say to " learn to RELAX( with awareness ) no matter what we are doing? " " to forget the mistakes of the past and move on? " perhaps after contemplating and learning something from our past mistakes, we forgive others, forgive ourselves and move on. in a world of constant change, externally, one moment is up another down; but, here is a paraphrase of Papaji about what the true nature of our inner world is but somehow we are not aware of it : " I Am the Unchangeable Awareness in which All activity takes place Always at Rest and in Peace I Am Eternal Being, Unbounded and Undivided Just Keeping Quite All is well Keeping Quiet is Here and Now I Am Happiness I Am Peace I Am Freedom Not entertaining any notions that I Am in trouble Being Kind to myself With Open Heart, I Simply Am " doing seva, being kind to others, and taking care of whatever needs taking care, no problem !
