10. Witnessing

Qn: I am full of desires and want them fulfilled. How am I to get what I want?

Ans: Do you deserve what you desire. Work for fulfillment of desires. Put in energy.

Qn: Where to get energy?

Ans: Desire is energy.

Qn: Why does not every desire get fulfilled?

Ans: May be it was not strong or lasting. If your desires are personal, for your enjoyment, the energy you give is limited.

Qn: What about unselfish desires?

Ans: When you desire the common good, the whole world desires with you. Desires are right or wrong according to circumstances. Desires that lead to sorrow are wrong. Do not forget others. Their sorrow or happiness also count. Know yourself- all that you are not.

Qn: Ultimately what am I?

Ans: The ultimate denial of all you are not. You are the pure awareness that illumines consciousness. Purify yourself by a well ordered and useful life. Watch over your thoughts, feelings, words and actions. Attachments are in the mind. Every grain of sand is God. Discover all you are not- body, feelings, thoughts, ideas, time, space, being or non-being.

Qn: Is witnessing not my real nature?

Ans: Witnessing is duality. Putting words together will not take you far. Go within and discover what you are not. Nothing else matters.
