Your physique is sort of a laborious shell. And your thoughts, the inside self is like water. You’re like water inside. Nature of water is cooling and flowing. However when the innermost, which is like water, is burning with jealousy, anger, frustration and all of the fires you place inside, then the water boils and its cooling nature disappears.
Then how does one cool the water? Simply think about a pot and beneath are all these burning sticks. To chill the water it’s a must to take away these sticks. All feelings are linked with individuals, objects and occasions. Catching on to things, individuals or relationships hinders freedom, liberation. You’re hankering for some better pleasure that’s not there, not going to be there. I’ll have better pleasure if I’ve a greater companion or if I’ve lot of cash or if I’ve lot of freedom.

Cash offers you a hallucination that you’ve higher freedom. Your thoughts tells you that with more cash one might have extra freedom; might journey anyplace; do no matter you needed; these illusory concepts come into the thoughts.

The second you change into mushy and non-resisting inside, the stiffness drops, the sensation of being certain leaves you and every part else together with wealth, consolation and prosperity observe.
So, take away all this firewood and the water will change into cooler. As a result of “cool” is the character of water. When all these different damaging stresses, burning sticks are eliminated, water will possess all its pure qualities — humility and naturalness — identical to the character of water which flows down. Don’t ever assume deep inside you is any negativity, sorrow, anger or jealousy.
Within the Bhagavad Gita Lord Krishna talks about all the great qualities. After which He provides that they’re already in you. Identical to in an atom, the core is optimistic and the negativity is peripheral. Your nature is calmness and coolness. If it wasn’t your nature, you’ll by no means really feel at residence in it.

The mantra of affection is — there isn’t any one who doesn’t belong to me. When the thoughts is free from all impressions and ideas, you might be liberated.
When you recognize that every part is altering — all relationships, individuals, physique, emotions — all of the sudden the thoughts, which clings on to distress, comes again to you. The return from mine to me, offers you contentment and freedom from distress. A fulfilment, centredness, a delicate stable power comes from inside. Then if fame comes, cash comes, it doesn’t contact you. It comes or doesn’t come; it doesn’t matter to you.
