My words from yesterday touched many people and I got many replies. I want to thank everybody for their warm words. One of my friends wrote that she felt understood when she read that ‘even such a spiritual person like me feels this pain’.
Yes, I am just a normal person and that is what I want to be. How would I be able to help anybody if I could not feel pain, if I could not have these feelings of sadness, anger or more? And only in this way I feel it is possible to give advice to someone if he asks you for it. Only if you know what you are talking about. You need to get to know yourself and see how you deal with situations before you can tell anybody else how they should handle a situation.
These experiences of sadness are also valuable and you learn a lot from that. And in this way we can learn to be thankful even to those who gave us pain. We can be thankful to those who give love and to those who give pain. I also thank my sister who gave me much love when she was alive and I also want to thank her for being in my memories when she is not there anymore.

Beautiful words, Swami Ji. We should be grateful for our pain and those who bring us pain. It gives us depth, understanding, and compassion. I think when you have accepted pain, you aren't really afraid of anything anymore. You aren't afraid to die. You aren't afraid to cry. You understand that everything is a blessing.

Sadness. Everyone experiences sadness. I am always happy that it ends, and it ends every time. And all the ways I've been sad before just help me raise people up when I see their sadness. It's important to feel these things.

There is no plan and nobody knows what will happen tomorrow. We can take our decisions and have to take our responsibility for the consequences. Nobody knows before what will happen if you go one way or the other.
SourceBelievers cheat themselves by thinking god created everything bad for a reason.
SourceNobody can predict the future, nobody knows it. The future is written in the stars but you cannot read and translate it. The mystery of what will come next has its own beauty, .
SourceYou can trust people only when you know them and you can only get to know them if they show what they feel. So make a start and show what you feel.
SourcePeople often have different faces, for work, for home, for friends and so on. That makes it difficult for you and others to understand you. Just be who you are!
SourceYou are not qualified to have a baby if you cannot give time and love to that little being.
SourceI won’t have a problem with your god if he doesn’t think that women are less intelligent, inauspicious and less worth than men, as it is written in every religion’s books.
SourceGod lives in the heart and can come wherever you want. Temples and religious buildings are the centers of the business of religion where they see religious people as cows and milk them for money and donations, even by selling tickets. The more money you have, the quicker you can see God and the more blessings you get.
SourcePeople usually don’t lie because they want to harm someone but to hide their thoughts, to hide their feelings, shortly to hide themselves. It is one of the greatest problems that a person can have: low self-esteem.
SourceI don’t tell you what you should believe or that you should follow me. I am just a normal person like you and everyone else whose thinking is influenced by his surrounding and the events happening around him.
SourceIf a player only enjoyed playing if he won the match, he would not be very happy in his profession. Don’t let your mind stop you from enjoying as much you can!
SourceAct with the knowledge of what happened in the past and with an idea of what you want to achieve but be in presence, be here and now.
SourceNo, money is not everything and you cannot express the value of everything in Euros, Dollars or Rupees!
SourceWays of worship like feeding a statue of God would be a big thing to laugh about, was it not a systematic plan of religion to keep you in a numb state of mind where you will not question an order even if it is complete nonsense. You are requested to switch off your mind and follow what you are being told.
SourceDo you think of meditation as a competition? Whoever can sit in meditation the longest is the winner! That person is closer to enlightenment than all others or has even already reached enlightenment! Those who cannot sit still for even half an hour are beginners, losers, materialists and very non-spiritual people!
SourceReligious leaders act as if God is their property and they are the ones to distribute the connection. But they are not the brokers of God. You don’t need to pay them commission to establish the connection. You can just dial in yourself.
SourceReligion is outdated from today’s point of view because we have found the answers to the questions due to which religion was created in the first place! Only manipulation and fear is left together with ancient, bloody scriptures – so you should leave religion and it should be buried as a relic of the past.
SourceDon’t be overprotective. Lack of self-esteem, indecision and also problems with getting into company of others are the consequences. Don’t overprotect, give freedom and let them make their experiences. They will shape the world of tomorrow, so don’t try to press them into your world. Let them free.
SourceIf you have practice of meditation, you are able to focus and decide what you want to think of. Through meditation and focus you can not only close the door of your office but also the door of your mind to work related topics in order to truly relax.
SourceSpirituality may be different for everyone but if you have a meaningful life, no matter whatever this is for you, you live in spirituality. If you feel that you fulfill your purpose of life, you are happy and that is true spirituality.
