Live Quality
Today’s post Aakash will like to start with one process:
Love and Meditation:
Love is always new. It never becomes old because it is non-accumulative, non-hoarding.
It knows no past; it is always fresh, as fresh as the dewdrops. It lives moment to moment, it is atomic. It has no continuity, it knows no tradition. Each moment it dies and each moment it is born again. It is like breath: you breathe in, you breathe out; again you breathe in and you breathe out. You don’t hoard it inside.
If you hoard the breath you will die because it will become stale, it will become dead. It will lose that vitality, the quality of life. So is the case with love – it is breathing; each moment it renews itself. So whenever one gets stuck in love and stops breathing, life loses all significance. And that’s what is happening to people: the mind is so dominant that it even influences the heart and makes even the heart possessive! The heart knows no possessiveness but the mind contaminates it, poisons it.
So remember that: be in love with existence! And let love be like breathing. Breathe in, breathe out, but let it be love coming in, going out. By and by with each breath you have to create that magic of love. Make it a meditation: when you breathe out, just feel that you are pouring your love into existence; when you breathe in, existence is pouring its love into you. And soon you will see that the quality of your breath is changing, then it starts becoming something totally different to what you have ever known before. That’s why in India we call it ‘prana’, life, not just breathing, it is not just oxygen. Something else is there, the very life itself.
Let me share with you my life experience of my first encounter with my love:
I was have very friendly relationship with everyone around me. I was always carrying the impression that this is my true love, with myself and others.
But suddenly I was out from that illusion. I met with an accident, in that moment I become empty of everything due to sudden shock. It was same experience when we breathe out our lungs become empty, same way all my emotional thinking was out. My mind was blank. After few days I suddenly realise that my relationship with everyone has changed. I now be with them as if I am meeting them for the last time. My friendliness was carrying fragrance of affection and concern. To know what exactly has happen to me, I started going for Osho’s meditation centre. I started meditating. I realized that after the meditation I was feeling similar kind of emptiness which I felt after the accident. More I started practicing meditation more I become loving. Not only I but people around me also found that I am now more sensitive and loving.
If you practice yoga your body will be more flexible, same way if you practice meditation you will be more loving.
