The true seeker - Sri Sri
*
You
can look into any situation and be for or against it and both will hold good. Look at the illiterate, innocent people. They
are so happy, and have such a smile on their faces. And look at all those who are educated, cultured, and see the amount of
tension and stress in their lives. What good is it to go to school?
*
You can see everything from various angles. This
is only to glorify the value of sacrifice. One can have great skills, and attachments to those skills can make one's life
very miserable. Stars, musicians, teachers are all gifted with some talent but they get so obsessed, arrogant and adamant
with it that they make their own life miserable. One's willingness to let go of one's skills brings them eternal peace and
strength.
+++
Truth always has value but you know what you need is a skill to express truth. We often say we are very
honest, very truthful. But why do all these problems come to you? Because you are not skillful.
*
To bring the best
in you, you have to become Arjun. Among so many, only Arjun got the knowledge. Why? What does Arjun mean? One who is thirsty
for the truth. The true seeker. You don't become a seeker just to show off, or to get your way around in the world. You can
become a teacher and go on teaching and have nothing inside you. Just build up your own ego. Then it won't help. The true
seeker is Arjun — who wants to know truth.

Seva Is Savior
*
The way to expand from individual to
universal consciousness is to share others's sorrow and joy. As you grow, your consciousness should also grow. When you expand
in Knowledge with time, then depression is not possible. Your inner most source is joy.
*
The way to overcome personal
misery is to share universal misery! The way to expand personal joy is to share universal joy. Instead of thinking "what about
me?" "what can I gain from this world?" think "what can I do for the world?" When everyone comes from the point of contributing
to society, you have a Divine society. We have to educate and culture our individual consciousness in order to expand in time
with the Knowledge . . . from "what about me?" to "what can I contribute?"
*
If you are not having good experiences
in meditation, then do more seva -- you will gain merit and your meditation will be deeper. When you bring some relief or
freedom to someone through seva, good vibrations and blessings come to you. Seva brings merit; merit allows you to go deep
in meditation; meditation brings back your smile.

There will be changes. You are ready.
*
-What
do I need to do?
*
Nothing beyond that which you do already. You know that everything is connected. There are no mistakes.
*
-Will
I know when I am there?
*
You are there already. Open your eyes and see.

Sign of dawning wisdom
What is
a sign of the dawning of wisdom? Prasanna chitta (pleasant state of mind) is a sign. Friendliness, foresight, intuition, a
mind in the present moment – these are signs of wisdom.
*
You are all on your right Paths, Dear Ones, know this
and do not give up or doubt yourselves. Stay centered within your Light and your great Love for Creator. Daily seek counsel
with your own God Light and listen to the still, small voice within you. All is well and everything is perfect. Say this to
your selves each day and it will become so!
*
Look around you now. The future is contained in one minute from now! Anything
can happen in that minute. Perhaps the phone will ring; perhaps you knew it would. You might even intuit who is calling. The
next minute may contain anything at all, perhaps a sudden feeling of Love from your Angel. Should you go through life expecting
something to happen in the next minute? Well, to some extent. At least, you know something will occur. Still, it is well not
to expect, for expectations tend to be mind and logic-oriented, and have the unfortunate likelihood of not coming true. Consider
the possibilities, but let things happen as they will. You have complete control, but your spiritual mind and those spiritual
beings that work with and for you are also directing many facets of your life. The little hints of intuition or nudges of
guidance have a great effect on your daily walk though this existence in matter, and make it a much better one.
Let
each day progress on its own and have the feeling that what comes will be for your good, one way or another. What seems to
be an unfortunate happening may well be a turning point that will guide your life towards much better accomplishments and
satisfaction. Let Love rule your life and nothing will happen that should not happen. Use your spiritual abilities as grand
tools of understanding and direction. You are mightily blessed to be living on this planet at this time of great planetary
alterations, being a part of an advanced evolution of humanity and the Solar System. Live your future with open acceptance,
using every moment as a grand challenge.
