Soul Mission Completed

The ultimate goal is goallessness.
When that is attained, nothing
further is required.

The solution cannot be found in time.
How much time is required to be
what one already is.
Wu Hsin

I had the most incredible experience yesterday. I know when I say it you will just roll your eyes and say, ‘duh, dumbhead!’, but for me it was actually meaningful. I suddenly realized that my longing for being loved was just an energy, a craving, just like wanting to own a mansion or being looked up to for some professional recognition. I never felt that way before, I always had a romantic story in mind when it came to love. To feel—to actually feel love as just another ego longing—was completely unreal to me.

The problem of our spiritual journey is that we are utterly confused about who exactly we are, and what longings we should express and which one we should suppress in the name of spirituality. The Force I have been introduced to doesn’t lose much sleep over ‘good’ an ‘evil’. As a matter of fact, when it comes to squeezing out our soul longings and expressing them, even the expressions ‘right’ and ‘wrong’ don’t make sense. Right is what gets the job of reaching the state of ‘goallessness’ at the fastest way possible.

The Rolling Stones put the ‘Way of the Soul’ well when they sang:
No, you can't always get what you want.
You can't always get what you want.
You can't always get what you want.
But if you try sometime you find,
you get what you need.

Soul missions have to be completed because they are essentially subconscious in nature. Someone who only talks about power and money has to get powerful and rich somehow, otherwise his life will be viewed by him a failure. Someone who only thinks about attractive women has to have an affair. After all, he is not in charge, his subconscious libido is. There is only one way out and that is through: someone who wants to be truly free has to be an old soul. The endless ups and downs over many lifetimes have finally provided them with the switch that Poonjaji has in mind when he says:

“I want this. I want that.
I dislike this, I like that!”
If you remove the switch of like and dislike,
how will you feel? Instantly you will be free.
(Poonjaji)

You have fought well soldier. Isn’t today a perfect day to break free?
