“Other thoughts arise more forcibly when one attempts meditation.”
Bhagavan.: “Yes, all kinds of thoughts arise in meditation. That is only right; for what lies hidden in you is brought out. Unless it rises up, how can it be destroyed? Thoughts rise up spontaneously but only to be extinguished in due course, thus strengthening the mind.”
Sri Ramana Maharishi
Life brings stuff to the surface. What do you want life to be, pleasurable? That’s what humanity has aimed for over eons and look where it got us. Why not invite life’s messengers for what they are, signposts for the inner work we still have to do. Once all inner conflicts, aspirations and aversions are out in the open, love and peace shall prevail. In Oneness, everything we ever wanted is present here and now. Love and serenity is always just one insight away.
