Guest guest Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 Hi , The longing is the first part of your mistake. Do not pine for what has passed although this is very easy to say rather than put into practice. Your very mistake is your identification with this feeling of elation, joy, happiness. Be detached from your body, mind (along with its feelings), intellect, ego... Recognise your Divinity. K is not the goal, it is only a means to the goal - the experience of your divinity while still encased in your present body. When you are ready, it will manifest. Moreover, you need to experience the downside as well as the up. Do you feel that God, The Supreme Absolute or whatever you choose to call it is not aware of how you feel? Offer yourself as a sacrifice to the Supreme Being and you will get sorted. Just the thought and knowledge of the wondrous power reclining in your Muladhara chakra, your subtle body should be enough to send you into waves of ectasy.Yes! we all carry this psycho-spiritual element in our very bodies whether awakened or not. Rest in that knowledge, savour the nectarine feeling. You are loved far more than you think. You live and exist in love. Keep on meditating and doing your safeties, BE AWARE always of your true self and plod on! for when the true joy will come, you will gladly look back and remember when 'it seemed you lost the feeling of joy and happiness' and laugh. Then you will be in the position to look after others and help them along.

Somewhere along the road I lost that and am not sure how to bring it back. If I allow myself to think I seem to just cry and feel miserable so I try not to think about much. " > > Dear , > I remember that with fondness too... I am wondering if it is rose coloured glasses with me but I think I was much more full of a joy and happiness that was present in every fibre of my being most of the time....for example looking at a tree or a flower or the countryside was like having my lover touch my arm..shivers down my back bone and surges of love and joy.....perhaps it is like looking back at when you first fall in love and how that is.... those huge feeling calm down after a while and are replaced by others but the love is still present... Now our joy and happiness is still present but it does not leap about as much... it is contained and treasured and expressed through devotion and service. > I think it comes back when we stop wanting it to, or wishing it was not as it is or maybe when we go on " holiday " or take a second honeymoon.....lol! Mmmmmm! > > I don't really know but that just struck me as I read your post and wanted to share with you.
