Witnessing Ourselves

Witnessing Ourselves

When we do something altruistic,pure and out of sheer selflesness,we witness the joy and goodness that arise from Within….we feel peaceful,content,enriched and empowered.We start to develop the love affair and feel sincerely good with ourselves and truly see that Love is indeed inherently alive,not dependent on anyone or anything outside of ourselves.

When we revel endlessly in selfish motivations, we feel weakened,tired,wasted and drained.It is due to the fact that we need to chase one pleasure after another(we become dependent upon external sources).No matter how much ‘temporary happiness’we enjoy,we we cannot feel satisfied,content and comforted!This in turn becomes addictive and obsessive and leads to various afflictive dysfunctions(passive/active violence, aggression,depression, cold-heartedness,bitterness,hatred, ill-wills)).We can see that when we get what pleases us, we feel elated and ‘nicey-nicey’.Then see/witness what happens when things don’t go the way we want it to be?

Simply become aware of every circumstance and discern the wisdom to facilitate the necessary change.
