As the light arrives, darkness leaves.
As meditation arrives, the mind leaves.
Hence, now drown into meditation.
All else follows on its own.
155. Love.
The world is neither unhappiness nor happiness.
The world becomes the same as we see it.
Our vision is the world.
Each person is the creator of his own world.
If every moment of life gives you unhappiness,
then the mistake is somewhere in your own vision.
And if all that you see around you is darkness,
then certainly you are keeping closed the eyes that see light.
Give a fresh thought to yourself.
Look at yourself from a new angle.
If you put the blame on others, you will never be able to see
your own mistake.
If you put the blame on circumstances, you will not be able
to penetrate the roots of your own mental state.
Hence, whatever the situation, proceed to discover
its causes in yourself.
Causes are always in one’s own self.
But they always appear to be in others.
Avoid this mistake and it will be difficult
to preserve your unhappiness.
Others function only as mirrors.
The face seen is always our own.
Life can become a celebration.
But it is necessary to create oneself anew.
And that is not a difficult thing.
Because in the very seeing of the fault in one’s own vision the mistakes
start dying and the birth of a new person begins.
156. Love.
Do not fight with yourself.
Such a fight is futile.
Because victory never, ever comes through it.
To fight with oneself
is nothing other than a gradual suicide.
Accept yourself.
Happily. In gratitude.
What is, is good.
Sex too, anger too.
Because whatsoever is, is from the divine.
Accept it and understand it.
Search and uncover the hidden potential in it.
Then, even sex feels to be a seed towards the divine.
And anger becomes the door to forgiveness.
Evil is not an enemy of goodness.
Rather, evil is only imprisoned goodness.
157. Love.
