Blessings and Art of Living

My perception is that universe infinitely blesses us every moment. Why we do not acknowledge is that we are not consciously aware of it. For example you start in the morning to the office, the breeze that touches your body; the surrounding climate, the ambience of office etc are all the ways that universe conspires to bless. What we need on our part is to simply be conscious of it and the doors for infinite blessing of the universe opens. Simple things have enormous capacity to bless us, heal us but we not open to the vast in and around us and get caught in our own hypnotized worlds. What opens the blessings is awareness. Hold loose of yourself from your self created reality and simply be aware of every little thing that you come across.

Pure awareness creates the perception of beauty which fulfils itself. One begins the love affair with living in a blissful world since one remains aware of all the beauty of the world. The whole universe is celebrating except you. We have isolated ourselves in our own artificial worlds. If you have capacity to participate in this wonderful celebration of the universe, you would no more be limited and agonized with the personal reality.

You are not your work, not your relationship, not your ideology, not any particular thing that you identify with, you are that transcendental awareness. We make mistakes by identifying too much with one particular frame of reference or roles and the enormous beauty of participation in the universe is missed. Do your personal work but keep yourself loose from your personal reality, you will know for the first time that there is life and beauty to be a part of these orgasmic universe. Prefer to be a part of the whole than struggling to be an isolated entity.

Our greatest problem is our investment in the isolated self and the loss of life and its associated agony. The remedy is to identify that it is nothing but self hypnosis created by conditioning so far. Deep down we are an autonomous living entity with all the privileges and powers and part of an organic whole. Trust your inner self; answers were never separate from living. You don't need answers, just relax without seeking. Deep down we have never ever been separate from universe, only we have lost touch with it.
