Realizing And Experiencing The I (Self) Within (Part 3)

If we continue to become attached to our specialties, our personality or our role for the most part of our life, then over a period of time we forget the real self which is waiting to be recognized. Every time I think I am one of the above, I become more and more disconnected from my real self which is going to give me more permanent self-esteem and as a result permanent happiness. The personality skills, the sparkling education success, and the way I dress up are all temporary.

➤This is because don’t forget life is a roller coaster where success can easily leave me within a short period of time. 𝐒𝐨, 𝐞𝐧𝐣𝐨𝐲 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦 𝐛𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐞𝐧𝐣𝐨𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐛𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐜 𝐨𝐫 𝐧𝐨𝐧-𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥. 𝐁𝐮𝐭 𝐝𝐨𝐧’𝐭 𝐛𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐝𝐞𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬. On the other hand, the source of all the specialties and personality – the real I is a sum total of the basic qualities of the soul – peace, love, and joy. All that is good inside which is eternal and also the relationship of the I or myself with a higher source – God which is also imperishable (un-destroyable) is what I need to be dependent on because it will never leave me.

➤Don’t forget, in our earliest births, we were extremely skilled, very beautiful, and very rich, so much so that everything good that a human being can have physically was with us. Yet we were completely detached from all these attainments, enjoying all of them. That too at a time when these attainments were imperishable because that was the original world, a world of happiness. But, now all these attainments in our life are no longer permanent and can very easily go away from us in a split second because we live in a world that is unpredictable and with many ups and downs.

➤No skill or role has with it the assurance of being permanent. On the other hand, it is the time when the imperishable I is the one who stands by us permanently. So, it is this I the hand of which we need to hold tight permanently and also connect the I with a permanent source – the Supreme Soul. As a result enjoy every moment of life with complete security, surety, and safety.
