Meditation Is for You

Life is teaching, are you listening?

Life is the ultimate Master.

Life is continuously teaching, but we are not listening. If you are intense and open, you will constantly be learning from life.

Every time you are made to retreat, step back, life is teaching you something

But we are so filled with our own ideas that we don't learn the lesson.

Instead, we try to bring more energy to fight with life. Life is so simple and direct, but we continuously prepare ourselves to fight with it.

Don't build muscles to fight with life! Just look deeply into life.

Every moment, life is opening new things to you. Be intensely available.

Then suddenly you will realize that all of life is just auspiciousness - even what you experience as the worst things in life.

When you intensely approach life, you will realize that even these things add tremendous understanding and experience to you.

Living in the present is not enlightenment!

Living in the present is not enlightenment! That's what we always think. Living in past, present, future simultaneously is enlightenment.

It means that in your present moment, the essence of the whole past, the essence of the whole future will be present.

If you are living just in the present moment, you have no freedom to correct your past and project your future.

If you are living only in the past and future, you have no freedom to change the present moment. Only if you are living in past, present and future, do you have the freedom to experience, the freedom to amend and the freedom to project because the whole thing is in you! This is what I call living enlightenment.

Awareness is the gateway to God

You are always taught to be attentive.

When you are in attention, you are 'at tension'! Attention can never lead you to the peak experience. Just be aware, that is enough. Attention is all-excluding, while awareness is all-encompassing.

Spirituality is never exclusive, it is always inclusive.

With awareness, you can see that the gates of God are within you, and they are already open – you just need to enter!
