Just Do It

At the beginning, mankind and the obligation of selfless service were created together. Through selfless service you will always be fruitful and find the fulfillment of your desires. This is the promise of your Creator.
Lord Krishna, Bhagavad Gita

Ever wonder where all the stress and annoyance comes from?  Most of time it comes from our own resistance. We don't want to do something though deep down inside we know that it is probably good for us and others.  This resistance creates the stress and conflict in us. So instead of wasting our energy fighting what we have to do, why don't we just accept it and just do it!  Observe how your energy level changes accordingly.

When you accept that you need to work to support your family, when you accept all these chores that are necessary to nurture your family and provide them with a comfortable environment. When you know you need to spend that time with your children to nurture their souls and calm them down. When you understand that you need to be there for your friends and family, suddenly all the annoyance disappears, suddenly, your light shines through every trivial thing that you have to do.  It is almost like wherever you walk and whatever you do, it is the most important activity in the world and the most important
moment of your life.  You basically experience meditation while you do whatever you do.
Divine energy springs forth from your activity and from you.  There is nothing more important than this moment!

Feel the joy of everything you do. The Tao has prepared this task especially for you to make you whole. You can sense that divine connection every moment. Happiness and peace of mind is nor defined by money, nor is it measured by social status. Only one thing matters, you, your divine activity and your connection with your soul siblings. Your presence and your participation makes you one with the Tao.  Can you feel this joy while being at work? Do you share the excitement of simply spotting a wild rabbit in your yard?  Can you experience that silence and joy that is radiating from you? You are the Tao's gem. This world would be incomplete without having you here now.

Leave the rewards of our actions up to a higher authority. These too will come our way. Let's enjoy our life moment by moment by fulling engaging with whatever comes our Way. Let's do it!
