HOW TO FACE THE FEAR
👀👀👀
THE BUDHIST APPROACH
❤👉
THE BUDDHIST APPROACH HAS BEE TO LOOK INTO REALITY WITHOUT ANY IDEA SO THAT REALITY CAN REVEAL ITSELF. ALLOW REALITY TO REVEAL ITSELF, DON'T ENFORCE ANYTHING UPON IT. ALL OTHER RELIGIONS HAVE BEEN ENFORCING SOMETHING OR OTHER HENCE THEY GO ON MISSION. THEIR WORK BECOMES METAPHYSICAL, INFACT, THEIR WORK BECOMES A KIND OF AUTOHYPNOSIS. BUDDHISM DE-HYPNOTIZES MAN. BUDDHA'S WORK IS DEHYPNOSIS. BUDDHISM DE-HYPNOTIZES MAN. BUDDHA'S WORK IS DEHYPNOSIS, HOW TO DROP ALL KINDS OF HYPNOSIS, ALL KINDS OF SUGGESTIONS GIVEN BY THE SOCIETY, BY THE PEOPLE. AND WHEN YOU ARE UTTERLY SILENT, WITH NO CONDITIONING, TRUTH BECOMES KNOWN. THAT TRUTH LIBERATES.
IF IT RAIN, LET IT RAIN,
IF IT RAIN NOT, LET IT NOT RAIN,
BUT EVEN SHOULD IT NOT RAIN,
YOU MUST TRAVEL
WITH WET SLEEVES.
❤👉
ONE VERY PRECIOUS WORD IN BUDDHA'S APPROACH TOWARDS LIFE IS SAMATA. SAMATA MEANS EQUANIMITY, EQUILIBRIUM, BALANCE, CHOICELESSNESS. DON'T MOVE TO THE EXTREMES, AVOID EXTREMES, PAIN AND PLEASURE ARE TWO EXTREMES DON'T CHOOSE. DON'T AVOID EITHER AND DON'T CLING TO EITHER. JUST REMAIN IN THE MIDDLE OF IT, WATCHING, LOOKING AT IT, UNATTACHED.
PAIN COMES, LET IT COME YOU JUST BE A WATCHFUL CONSCIOUSNESS. YOU JUST BE A AWARENESS. THERE IS A HEADACHE, YOU JUST WATCH IT. DON'T SAY NO TO IT, DON'T START FIGHTING WITH IT, DON'T DENY IT, DON'T AVOID IT. DONT TRY TO ENGAGE YOURSELF SOMEWHERE ELSE SO YOU ARE DISTRACTED FROM IT. LET IT BE THERE, YOU SIMPLY WATCH. AND IN WATCHING IT, A GREAT REVOLUTION HAPPENS.
❤👉
IF YOU CAN WATCH IT WITHOUT LIKE AND DISLIKE, SUDDENLY IT IS THERE BUT YOU ARE OUT OF IT, YOU ARE NO MORE IN IT. YOU ARE STANDING THERE UNBRIDGED TO IT. CHOICELESSNESS UNBRIDGES YOU FROM ALL KINDS OF MOODS, FROM ALL KINDS OF MINDS. THAT IS SAMATA.
PLEASURE COMES, LET IT COME. DON'T CLING TO IT. DON'T SAY, I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE YOU FOR EVER AND EVER". IF YOU CLING TO PLEASURE, THEN YOU WILL AVOID PAIN. AND DON'T GO TO THE OTHER EXTREME. DON'T START DENYING PLEASURE, DON'T START ESCAPING FROM PLEASURE, BECAUSE THAT IS THE SAME. IF YOU START ESCAPING FROM PLEASURE, YOU WILL START CLINGING TO PAIN. THAT'S WHAT ASCETICS DO.
❤👉
THE INDULGENT PERSON CLINGS TO PLEASURE, AVOIDS PAIN. AND THE ASCETIC PERSON AVOIDS PLEASURE AND CLINGS TO PAIN. BOTH APPROACHES ARE WRONG, IN BOTH YOU LOSE BALANCE. BUDDHISM IS NEITHER INDULGENCE NOR ASCETICISM. IT DOES NOT TEACH ANYTHING IT SIMPLY SAYS WATCH!
AND THAT'S WHAT JESUS GOES ON REPEATING AGAIN AND AGAIN WATCH! KEEP ALERT, KEEP AWAKE.
❤👉
YOU TRY IT! THIS IS AN EXPERIMENT IN PSYCHOLOGY NOTHING TO DO WITH GOD. AND YOU WILL BE SURPRISED AND IMMENSELY BEBEFITTED. THE DAY YOU CAN SEE THAT YOU ARE NEITHER PAIN NOR PLEASURE IS A GREAT DAY, IS THE GREATEST DAY BECAUSE FROM THEN ONWARDS THINGS WILL BE DIFFERENT.
IT IT RAIN, LET IT RAIN....
OF THERE IS PAIN, LET IT BE SO.
IF IT RAIN NOT, LET IT RAIN NOT.....
IF THERE IS NO PAIN, LET IT BE SO. IF THERE IS PLEASURE, LET IT BE SO. BUT YOU DON'T GET IDENTIFIED WITH ANYTHING.
BUT EVEN SHOULD IT NOT RAIN,
YOU MUST TRAVEL
WITH WET SLEEVES.
❤👉
BUT REMEMBER ONE THING, EVEN IF YOUR LIFE HAS BEEN OF CONVENIENCE, COMFORT, PLEASURE, AND THERE HAVE BEEN GREAT PAINS, GREAT MISERIES, THEN TOO YOU MUST TRAVEL WITH WET SLEEVES. WHY? BECAUSE STILL YOU WILL BECOME OLD, STILL YOU WILL HAVE TO DIE TO DAY,. DO ON CAN LIVE A VERY PLEASANT LIFE, BUT OLD AGE IS COMING, AND DEATH IS COMING. DEATH CANNOT BE AVOIDED, THERE IS NO WAY TO ESCAPE FROM IT, IT IS EVITABLE. SO WHETHER YOU LIVED A PAINFUL LIFE OR YOU LIVED A PLEASANT LIFE WILL NOT MAKE MUCH DIFFERENCE WHEN DEATH COMES. AND DEATH IS COMING.
