How to recognize the infinite power within you, which gives the feeling of peace
Every human has a habit that he runs after something or the other for happiness, but those things make you unhappy. You waste all your time trying to stop them. If you have maintained a relationship with your Creator, then there will be no sorrow or you will have to waste time. A scholar is one who sees both happiness and sorrow equally. Because he knows that there will be neither happiness nor sorrow. When you are sad, know that happiness will come in a short time. When happiness is going on, wait for a while, misery will come.
The spinning wheel of happiness and sorrow continues. Man tries not to rain, but those scholars say that it will rain, but carry an umbrella with you. Once went to jail to address a program. Somebody said that everything is bad here. The environment that exists in the prison is not of the prison, but the human beings live in it, it belongs to them. He has created a bad environment. When their attention is focused on good things, the same environment becomes beautiful. When they go to jail, they blame the police first. Blame the judge. Blame your family. Blame the government. Blame everyone, but don't blame yourself. When their attention turns towards themselves, they find two things. One, they should not have done what happened. The second thing is happiness. Because then you understand that you cannot change the police, the judge, the government, but you can change yourself.
You can change yourself and experience joy in your life every day. In a dark night, a small lamp has such power that it can destroy the darkness. Wherever there is no light, light a small lamp. When darkness comes in life you need light so that you can see. Where there is no light, you will not be able to see where is the abyss, where is the stone, where is the way and where is there no way. When the path is not visible, you will go astray, sometimes you will collide here, sometimes you will collide there. Wherever you go you will get hurt. Sometimes the wife will hurt, sometimes the son will hurt. Sometimes bass will hurt. We think that all these will give us happiness and they are giving us sorrow. You walk from your home and your motorcycle breaks down and you will think, today is not a good day. Your name is not the first among those who suffer this sorrow. Many people have suffered before you. What is happening to you has happened to many people before you. Now is it your turn this time?
That’s why it depends on you whether your life is sad or happy. If you don’t know yourself you will be sad. If you know yourself then you will be happy. Socrates said the same thing many years ago. Kabir as ji also said the same thing. Many saints-mahatmas have said the same thing that – know yourself. There is anger inside you, everyone is ready to accept it. There is peace inside you, no one is ready to accept that. Not everyone is ready to accept the fact that there is God in you. It needs to be known that you know that you have anger, because you have become angry. You do not know that there is peace within you, because you have not experienced that peace. Those who did, know. Unless you have experience, how will you know that you are not weak, you have great power in you.
