Real Courage to lose identity

Real courage is to let go of your identity which you think as you, to relax from your identity which you again and again associate as you. Whether your money or relationship, whatever you think as your power. Whatever gives you power, as of now, the source for inspiration or source for power is only matter, your bank balance, education, house, relationships are all your I and Mine. You derive inspiration from your I and Mine, fear and greed. If you are deriving inspiration from your I and Mine, if your fear and greed or your properties are your identity and if they are a source for inspiration it means you are not too far from depression. If your fear is based on identity, you are nothing more than a puppet.

Be clear, at least in puppet show, puppets are handled by one man, in your show you are handled by 1000s of people. Anyone single person can put you in depression. One word is enough you are already in depression. If somebody asks 'are you mad', you shout and prove you are mad.

Being non possessive

Whenever you feel that you are being possessive about something consciously decide to un-clutch from it or from that person. Sit and visualize life without that person or object. If you feel you can do without it, relax, nothing to worry. If you can't then sit and mediate on your life without that person. Create that pain. Allow that suffering. Start meditating on life without that person or object, let the pain rise in your inner space. Wait till it disappears, have patience, be silent till it disappears. By the time pain and suffering disappears, then you will have become mature.

At most you can suffer for few hours. Slowly depression will come down, pain leaves your inner space. When it leaves, you have already learnt the non-possessiveness. This is a powerful technique to achieve aparigraha when you expand your inner space through this pain. Understand this is very powerful technique. Whenever you feel you are possessive of something, disconnect and un-clutch.

Anything can be taken away from you. It is not that that person or product will be with you forever. No. It is just that you constantly try to possess the fear and pain of losing that person or object. Just mediate on non-possessiveness and be without that person or object, you will see that pain itself teaches you that you are free from pain, you are free from the possessiveness.
