The Point of Life

 

Reflection is recognition that brings clarity and joy

 One can never find true peace, love, joy, contentment in this world until one learns to find it first within inside where is has always been.  

Only then can we recognise peace, love, joy, contentment and only then will we reflect it - only when your candle is lit can we light other candles.    

That brings gratitude and understanding.    

Then we can have clarity.  Then we can really enjoy life.

Just one of the benefits of practicing the techniques of self-knowledge from Prem Rawat

 Just one of the benefits of practicing the techniques of self-knowledge that Prem Rawat shows is the realisation that I am not my mind! That I am separate from my mind, able to watch it and use it as the tool it's meant to be (sometimes) and not always let it distract me and run my life. I can see how often it misled me into bad decisions and problems. If it were a true servant or someone promising to always help,, well I would doubt their sincerity. The "heart" on the contrary, which I also feel through those techniques, always genuine - feeling not just computing and thinking. I feel so grateful for that and want to pass on the message that real peace and joy and love is within each person and not in the head or in the world outside of us,and that it is a practical experience not a philosophy, belief or religion. That is why I post about Prem Rawat, In case anyone was wondering . Ha!

Enjoy it while you can

A lot of people complain that they don't feel peace or joy or love or freedom, or are confused, fearful, hopeless, lost or simply don't know why they are alive or what;s it all about.

Most of them seem to think they will find answers in friendship or family, fame or fortune, achievements or possessions; many blame others, the government, their bosses, their families or friends and many blame themselves.

There are those that believe in one "God" or another, or no god at all - they have their own beliefs and disbeliefs, or philosophy, or teachers that they think will lead them to an answer, even if as yet they have not.

There are those that have hope and those that have no hope. There are the rich and the poor, the educated and not so educated, the young and the old, the servants and the masters, the healthy and the sick.

One thing we all eventually know - one day we will leave all that behind - and many of us think that THEN we will know.

In the meantime, we are alive.

So we can think if life in this world as a huge supermarket that we are allowed into for a while - let's say 24 hours.

Let;s say we have won a ticket to use whatever we want in that shop for one day, for free - maybe some items are restricted to some people, maybe not. But there is a lot to choose from and to enjoy, alone or with others.

Thing is we know that we will have to leave empty handed - so what is the point?

My friend said there is no point. I said so what about holidays, food, music, company, sport etc - it will all end. "Precisely", he said, "what's the point".

Well all I could say is what is the point of not trying to enjoy "it" whilst we can?"

We all came through one door and we will all be going through another door - alone. In between those doors is life.

So in that life we should at least have a choice to try to enjoy that life for what it is, an opportunity to feel peace, love, freedom, clarity, understanding, appreciation or a choice not to

So for those that want those things, how can we gains PRACTICAL EXPERIENCE that does not demand one set of beliefs or a regionalise over another - and that does not cost what we cannot afford.

I am so glad that my teacher Prem Rawat showed me how (over 50 years ago now) and that he is still about, travelling the world, speaking to people, making videos, just telling them about the opportunity that he offers. He has set up a series of short videos, called PEAK (available through the TimelessToday app on your phone), free of charge, that people can work through at their own rate.

The OPPORTUNITY is there - the next step in up to you because IT IS ALL ABOUT YOU!
