The question came from a college student –
Q. Why must I know this True Self ? Something I cannot see, something you say is non-physical ! I am quite happy being me, the physical self, with my present name, with my bank balance, with my family and friends ! Tell me, in one sentence, why I should even try to know it ?
Ans. Well, in one sentence, the answer is-
You must know your True Self if you wish to live a happy, effortless, satisfied life.
Even if you have achieved material successes in your chosen fields, there would be a part of you, maybe your heart, that is not satisfied, that may feel something is missing and so keeps chasing from goal to goal only to remain dissatisfied ! This deep satisfaction comes only when you know, experience, connect and feel your True Self’s presence. Be ready to feel un-imaginable peace, un-explainable joy and un-conditional love
because these are your True Self’s natural state of being, and of course it makes your life effortless and free from mental suffering !
Q. Oh, really ? Well then tell me, in one sentence again, how I can know or connect with it?
Ans. One sentence answer is –
Replace your thinking by feeling it.
Q. What ?
Ans. Replace your thinking by feeling it !
Did you know you can reduce, even almost stop thinking in meditation, or by watching your breath or by completely focusing on your feelings ? Yes, you can, and then what remains with you is your Treu Self ! FEEL it ! It is un-describably soothing mixture of peace, joy and love.
I trust you have not forgotten that your True Self ensures you can have, be and do anything you wish for. Your part is to maintain a high frequency vibration (frequency of unconditional love, frequency of our existence itself) to let your True Self know what you would like or prefer to experience now.
Q. Really ?
Ans. Yes, really !
As always, your questions are welcome.
