Be yourself

So, therefore, we always say we strive for balance. The Gita says this very beautifully, that you do not become elated by praise or some good happenings, and you don’t become saddened by some bad happening. You have an equal eye. So why become belated by those that are belated? Not necessary. That’s the whole secret of life. That’s how to find greater joy and peace.

You know, when I see two people really in love with each other, I feel so happy. I get merged in their love. To see that love there. That’s what life is all about. It’s so simple. People make it complicated because of imbalances in their mind where the energies are not flowing in balance. And what we, through our practices and with the grace which is called gurushakti, it helps us, gives us that push to bring about that balance. So what we are seeking for is balance. And balance means joy and happiness, that’s all.

And as a matter of fact, I’ve done satsangs in pajamas already. That’s what you people told. I don’t even remember these things.

And that is all you have to care about is your real self, and the rest will take care of itself. Like the old saying, «Look after the pennies, and the pounds will be safe

So when you have that, when you don’t have the attachment, then you don’t grieve over a deceased one. Let their spirits be free.
