Existence Accepts You

Accept yourself, you are already perfect

People go on wasting their time and life and energy. There is no need! In fact, as you are, you are perfect. Nothing is to be added to you.

Accept yourself as you are… Because whenever you accept, you are no longer divided; the split disappears. The split is between you and the should, between you and the ought.

Accept your limitations, accept your imperfections. That’s what it means to be a human being! And accept yourself as you are – with joy, not in helplessness. Because existence accepts you – this is my basic teaching – existence accepts you, so accept yourself; love yourself.

Why are we here? And how did we get here? And why on earth would we get here not being enough?

Remember, trees are enough, animals are enough, birds are enough – only man should not be enough? This doesn’t make sense. A man is a man. A woman is a woman. We are humans. And it’s how Rag ’n’ Bone Man sings: I’m only human. And that’s enough. There’s no superpower to be earned. Or at best, it may lie in the acceptance of yourself.

Accept Yourself

A rose flower is a rose flower, there is no question of its being something else. And the lotus is a lotus. Neither does the rose ever try to become a lotus, nor does the lotus ever try to become a rose. Hence they are not neurotics. They don’t need the psychiatrist, they don’t need any psychoanalysis. The rose is healthy because the rose simply lives its reality.

And so it is with the whole existence except man. Only man has ideals and shoulds. ‘You should be this and that’ – then you are divided against your own is. Should and is – are enemies.

And you cannot be anything other than you are. Let it sink deep into your heart: you can only be that which you are, never anything else. Once this truth sinks deep, that ‘I can only be myself’ all ideals disappear. They are discarded automatically. And when there is no ideal, reality is encountered. Then your eyes are herenow, then you are present to what you are. The division, the split, has disappeared. You are one.

What are you waiting for? – Start living

Dance, while you are alive. Breathe blissfully while you are alive. Sing while you are alive. Love, meditate, while you are alive.

Share your joy, your love, your ecstasy. Make life as beautiful as possible. Just out of thankfulness that existence has chosen you to be, that you are allowed to be, that you are given life. What else can you do? If you can sing a song, sing it with your totality! If you can paint, paint, and put your whole heart in it. If you can dance, dance to abandon so you disappear completely in the dance and there is no more any dancer but only the dance remains.

Start living. You don’t need to be approved by anybody. You are enough just the way you are.

What are you waiting for?
