Enriching is a mirror

Enriching is like a mirror, because it holds your own mind up to your awareness.

Understand, human minds are not very different from one another! Though each of us would like to believe that we have unique and incomparable sufferings, the truth is that almost all human beings are caught in the same five or ten patterns! So the solutions are also similar for all.

For instance, if you are struggling with a problem, and you know the solution but your heart is not accepting it, start giving that solution to others; your heart will start accepting it! By enriching others, your own heart starts imbibing those truths.

Understand: your life is not just yours! This is the truth, whether you want it or not, whether you understand it or not, whether you believe it or not. This is the truth as long as others are involved in your life and you are involved in others' life! Only when you decide to continuously enrich yourself and others does life flow through you.

We have a very wrong idea, 'Let me first experience this truth, then I

will start enriching others!' This is like saying, 'Let me first get cured; afterwards I will take the medicine!'

Understand: enriching, enriching, enriching, enriching is the cure! Enriching is the experience! Enriching is the technique. Enriching is the path and the goal. It is enriching which unclutches you from your past incompletions. It is enriching which makes you grow.

  • 1. List down all the areas where you postpone enriching others because you are waiting for your own transformation first
  • 2. In each case, find out how you can take responsibility of enriching others in those areas
