Meditation is not doing something to get extra power, it is a total non-doing to realize the extra ordinary power within oneself
Seek Happiness Within !
Every person desires a happier and more successful life. We attempt to make changes or better our lives by learning new skills or by training ourselves to perform better.
However, with all the knowledge and sincere efforts, why is it that people still do not effortlessly get the outcome they desire?
There are some simple but profound rules to be followed to see the outcome one desires in life. First and foremost among them is to recognize the weakness You see as a weakness in yourself, not what the world sees as a weakness in you. Because one can hide anything from the world, but not from oneself.
Once the weakness is known, the biggest mistake is to immediately focus on strengthening the weakness. The first step towards working on your weaknesses is to become conscious of your strengths! And take the effort to maintain the strength of those areas where you are already strong. Failing to do this will weaken your existing strengths. Because, the reality is, nothing can be attained, it can only be maintained.
Only after you have secured your strengths, effort should be focused on strengthening the weaknesses. One should realize that instead of great effort or attempting huge changes to strengthen your weakness; the secret of life is that even a small right change in the right direction will bring unfailing and unstoppable positive change in the future.
This approach is an unfailing formula that is applicable to any area of life and will never make a person discontent.
We might know what we want as a change in the future. But that change begins by making a small right change in the present and getting not just into action but right action. It is akin to leaving your expensive watch in your drawing room and putting all the effort to search for it in the bedroom. Here the effort is sincere but no matter how much effort is put, the watch cannot be found in a place where it is not lost. A small right change in the search will yield the desired result.
Similarly, human beings try to find happiness and success outside of their existence. We will never find it there despite all our efforts. Because it was never lost outside. We need to realize we have lost it within ourselves.
Through Atma-Dhyana when you seek happiness within, it will effortlessly be bestowed on you because the entire universe is waiting to deliver all happiness and success when one takes the first step to find it in the only place it is available; within oneself!!
This is ‘Aham Brahmasmi’; the entire universe is already within you. When you cease searching for happiness externally and seek it internally, it is surrender. This surrender is not one surrendering to the universe but the entire universe surrendering to the individual.
Wishing you a Life of Happiness and Success.
Atmayogi Shri Aasaanji
Aham Brahmasmi !
