Letting Go of the Filter

Whenever righteousness declines and the purpose of life is forgotten, I manifest myself on earth.
(Lord Krishna, Bhagavad Gita)

The other day we wrote about panic attacks and stress. The point is that you can take a crisis as great opportunity to connect with who you truly are just as Lord Krishna told Arjun on the battle field in the Bhagavad Gita. The advantage that a spiritual path traveler has over all other folks is that we are aware of the filter that stands between us and "reality". We know this fact because we had glimpses into the beyond. So on days when we perceive restlessness in us, when we hear alienated voices in our head, or when we simply don't gel with our environment, we just know that the " filter" is there again. We all have different ways of dealing with it. Some people go inside and purify themselves with the help of meditation, while others go outside instead and find a way to reconnect with the Now.

One thing is for sure though. Let life help you rechannel all existing negative energy in a different and purposeful direction.Yes it is true that some of the events that you classify as negative bring out the negative energy in you. But this is just an opportunity to let go of the "filter" that was always there. You just didn't notice it when times were good. Use the stress and the crisis and dispose of your " filter" as well as all the negative energy. Embrace life and all the little trifles and presumed crises that come your way. See for yourself that there is no better authority to connect you with the beyond than life itself under the single condition that you are always willing to put your best foot forward no matter what. Dance with Her rain or shine and experience how your "filter" disintegrate into nothingness.
