Sipping coffee early morning, I am looking into the screen wondering...
What am I looking for in life?
Why do I work?
Why do I holiday?
Why do I do what I do?
And... Why is it that sometimes, I feel like doing nothing?
I realise, I am looking for something, a space, a place may be, where I can be. A place where I wish to be for which I work, holiday and do whatever I thought of, only because, I wished this or that act will take me to that space.
That space has seemed out of reach several times, and at times, I have had a glimpse or feel of its serenity, quiet and that all-encompassing bliss, the feeling of fulfilment, of accomplishment. Realising the feeling of fulfilment and accomplishment stops me from running away and instead, makes me stop and be still within.
Practicing inner aloneness is the only way to get to the inner space. When I practice inner aloneness, this space simply seems to emerge out of nowhere. All working days, holidays, money, pleasure, luxury, wife, family are of little use if I did not see and feel the inner aloneness in everything. It binds or fuses everything into one single thread called emptiness.
In this emptiness is everything. Everything you can ever conceive of is here, comes from here.
I came empty. If I can remain empty every moment in this journey, I will have everything I need... everything.
My Journey is here... in the emptiness, seeing it, feeling it, living it through every experience. Come, journey with me.
