Live Quality
A man is absolutely free only when there is no identity left. You are neither a Christian nor a Hindu nor a Mohammedan; you are neither an Indian nor a Japanese nor a German; you are neither a man nor a woman. You are just a pure consciousness, and that consciousness is eternal. The Upanishads are talking about that consciousness.
The quality of Coconut is Live In Present Moment. The question is how?
Unless you die to the past you cannot be reborn, you cannot be here-now. The past has to be completely dropped and forgotten — it was a dream, nothing more — and out of the past arises the future. If the past is dropped, the future disappears.
Then the only reality is now and here. And to be here and now, absolutely here and now, is to know all that is worth knowing, is to really live an authentic, sincere life, a life full of truth and bliss and godliness.
Bhagyashree want to share with you one occasion happened recently with her. I was on tour to North India with my friends. Here at home my husband and son were managing home and themselves. Due to my identity as housewife I was worried because of my identity and ego that without me they cannot manage their life. But when I saw it is my identity which is creating worries – I just drop out the thought that I am housewife, I reminded myself that I am with my friends as friend. Immediately all worries disappeared. My friends were amazed that I was cool and I was so different than what I use to be.
It doesn’t mean that I was not contacting them. I was contacting them but my conversation was so different as if I am talking to some friends to find out how I am enjoying and how they are enjoying without me and my control on them. They and I use to laugh so much on the phone as everyone was very open and honest in our conversation. It created strong bondage between us.
By my this incidence I want to convey to you all if you drop your identity you will enjoy whatever existence has given to us in this moment and we also receive gift from existence for which we are struggling – like the bondage between my family has become more stronger and trust in each other.
