Apart from wondering about our existence, our very nature or our pure essence there are times when all seems to be just right,just ok and in no need of my/our intervention even if all is chaos and not right in this world.
I can sit back and generally not concern myself with my own problems which are varied and complex to some degree or another. I expect that we all have our own problems and experiences of dealing with them. There is a great way to alleviate the suffering these problems cause....
I would like to share this experience with you if you don't mind
Now remember this... when you dissolve sugar into water the water becomes sweet to drink!!
Every time you see yourself suffering just sip the sweet tasting water.
I will start by explaining my experience to you.
After reading and re-reading the Book 'Bhagavad-Gita As It Is' Thanks Star (Smile) and prepared to go to sleep it occurred to me that at that moment I would completely give myself to Lord Krsna and accept his authority. His wish is my command so to speak, I did this just to try and understand it the way Arjuna did.
This is hard to explain hence the saying above Ive created for you, lest I forget as you can do with dreams or just in case words are hard to find.
Just imagine the water is your suffering, regardless of what type of suffering or what degree of suffering your experiencing right now, We all know that to suffer is an illusion in its own right and that any attachment will cause you to suffer more.
Like water suffering constantly moves ebbs and flows, constantly changes both in size and shape. Water on its own has a bland neutral taste, Not many people I know will drink straight from the tap without first diluting something with it, see what Im saying?
Now imagine the sugar as described above is that sweet tasting nectar you can feel is the real you deep within your self, dissolving in your troubled water, your problems, your suffering are beginning to taste that little bit better.
Just imagine feeling pleasure where there is pain, or sorrow transmuted to wonder, or loneliness transmuted to the feeling of being loved and wanted
Spiritually I cant put into words the total experience Im trying to describe, my description above does it no credit and mearly describes it in simple terms, I just hope somewhere someone at some point will read this and it will help them in there time of need
Insight is such a wonderful thing
