SEEKING ETERNAL LIFE🔗

One part of you feels so strongly that you are going to exist forever, and you don't need to worry about the questions of afterlife.

It is like whenever you see people dying or you hear the news of somebody's death, you always think for a few seconds, what will happen to me? And then somehow you end up in the conviction that you are going to exist forever, or the problem is not going to come immediately at least, or you just decide that you don't need to attend to this question at least now.

Something happens which makes you lose attention and focus from that spark. Come back to the basic questions. Whatever makes you powerless is the basic question you are not able to face. That is the seed of seeking. Deciding to face those questions is seeking.

Whatever makes you powerless: What will happen after death? Will I be all alone during my death? In the deathbed all the pain that I may have to go through, will I be able to handle it? Or if suddenly some poverty happens in my life, if I lose some things, what will happen?

So the questions which makes you powerless, if you decide not to face them. you push yourself

into more delusion again and again. If you decide to face them, that is Seeking.

Just because you pushed the questions under the carpet, they cannot disappear. Just because these questions have been asked many times by others or yourself or by yourself to you, don't think you know the answer.

Sometimes because we are familiar with problems we assume we know the solution to that problem. Being familiar with the problem does not mean you found the solution for the problem. Being familiar with a problem for quite a long time, because of the familiarity, assuming you know the solution for that problem, is delusion.

When you are alone, ask these questions towards you. If death comes, tonight, am I prepared to face it? What is Life? What is it, that gives me such a strong confidence that I am not going to die, that I am going to eternally exist.

I am not saying that your belief that you are going to eternally exist is a lie. There is a component in you, which is externally going to exist. Unfortunately, you do not associate yourself with that component permanently.

That is all I am trying to remind you. I am not asking you to get depressed thinking about death. I am not interested in taking away your confidence with which you carry, that you are going to exist forever.

Yes, you are going to exist eternally, but please decide to associate yourself with THAT permanently. It is like by smelling fish, you imagine you ate fish. Just by having the confidence, which is the smell of the Eternal Consciousness, you start deluding yourself – you experienced the Eternal Consciousness. That is what I am telling you, smell is not eating.

There is part of you which never dies, which is eternally alive: your consciousness and your bio-energy. And there is part of you, which dies. Unfortunately, you associate yourself with that which dies, but you draw confidence from that which does not die.

It is like just by smelling the food, you feel you ate it and you are fulfilled. Smell can never fill your stomach. Only if you eat can it fill your stomach.

In the same way, just the confidence of bio-energy that you are never going to die, will not make you enlightened. A small hairline crack is enough to take away your confidence that you are eternal, that you are not going to die.

You are eternal, you are not going to die, that confidence is only the smell of your bio-energy not the experience of your bio-energy. Make it as an experience, decide to make it as an experience, is what I call Seeking.
