Look inside..

Generally people live on their minds which always looks outside via our external senses. This is like looking out of a window in the front room of the house all the time.  Instead,  turn around from the window, look inside your house and see how you can keep it neat, clean & attractive. Keep moving towards the center of the house and absorb the positive energies inside the house. Once you are deep inside, turn around and look to the front.  You will appreciate the beauty of your house better.  This is the concept of looking inwards inside of you, and finding your true soul.  Align your personality to your soul and keep the soul connected to Brahman all the time.  Your attitude, behavior etc. will change to positivity and your personality will be enchanting to others.

Our life journey

We all are on a journey to perfection.  Some of us are fortunate to be on an ultra-luxurious  private (chartered) plane, some in a comfortable limousine, many in a personal car and most others in a public transport (like a train).  However, it is only the mode, the ultimate destination is same for all.  The mode depends on your karmas in your current life and past lives. If they are good, your travel is good and comfortable; else it is miserable.  The other people you meet during your journey are just co-passengers; you do not own them.  You need to maintain an equilibrium and calm/composed attitude, always remembering the final destination and keeping a smiling helpful face to all co-passengers.

A person well dressed and rich, but his  soul not connected to the Supreme is like a colorful & thick  electric wire but with the copper conductor inside broken.  Such a wire is of no use.

Ego and agitation of mind

Ego is created because of the mind, which is nothing but the flow of thoughts. The thoughts are there because of the vasanas (inherent interests) we all are born with and add in our lifetime. If the vasanas are removed, the thought flow cease and the mind is eliminated. With no unnecessary thought flows, there are no agitations and hence our vision of Atman is clear.  Atman (soul) in its pure nature is nothing but Truth-Consciousness-Bliss (SatChitAnanda), the pure joy and bliss felt inside us.  Hence the Self (Soul) remaining the same, the bliss in an individual is directly proportional to the quietude of his mind.

When the agitation in our mind is stopped, the blissful Atman shines forth and we find amazing peace & happiness in ourselves. Hence the peace is not because of achieving or removing of  external conditions (or objects), but due to the quietude of mind. We think we are happy due to the procuring (or removal) of the external object, but actually, it is due to our return to the bliss of Altman.
