Offload Your Baggage

Once you learn to concentrate you can then contemplate. It is then that you can analyze and focus on what it is that you are carrying that needs to be flushed from your system. Even if for two minutes you experience the heaviness in your body and in your mind, you will feel like you weigh a hundred times more than what you actually do because you are carrying a weight whilst ignoring it. There is no escape; you can ignore it but this is not the solution. You can try and cover it, like if you take an onion and cover it with a piece of cloth it will still have the smell and the longer you leave the onion, the more covers you need. Similarly, the longer you keep the negativity in you, the more covers you need. The more covers you have, the heavier, weaker and insecure you become. The more insecure you get, the more fearful you become. You don't want your covers off-that is the whole fear because you, let alone others, can't put up with your own smell that is the negativity.
So meditation is one of the methods to get rid of that weight. You are hurt, you are carrying baggage or you are heavy- that is why you cannot meditate. Meditation is like flying and you have to be light in order to fly. When you sleep, you drop your ego and you don't know who you are. And that is why you are able to sleep so that you can forget about all that you don't want to forget.

स्वामी प्रणाम, मैं यह वीडियो हिंदी मे सुनना चाहती हूं क्योंकि यह एक बहुत बडी सच्चाई है कि आपके प्रबचन सुनकर इस बांसठ साल की उम्र मे भी मेरे अंदर बहुत बदलाव आये है इसलिये कृपया मुझको यह प्रबचन हिंदी मे सुनना है.

An odd thing happened when i first watched the video, I could see the ceiling fan's movement on Om Swami's shinning face. I stopped the video and returned to finish it...a few minutes later i realized i hadn't noticed the movement of light. I looked closely and it was still there, but it no longer bothered me. Normally, i would not be able to watch a video with an alternating light. Then Swami didn't make eye contact with the camera very often, when he did, it was like he was in that moment real and looking at me...only me. I rarely have seen this phenomena. Thank you for wisdom, but also for being.

[@mahavirnautiyal1240]

Swamiji has brilliantly elucidated the nature of life which is change, whether one likes it or not. Adi Sankaracharya called the world ' mithya ' only to stress the impermanence of things. The world is real but we are unable to see the underlying reality because of our attachment to things or people. Swamiji has called going beyond categorising change as good or bad as wisdom. Divine acceptance of change either for good or worse as the sign of wisdom. This wisdom may come from meditation , which Swamiji has said, gives us a pause, to introspect and contemplate. Meditation is flying into nothingness. This flight is impossible if we are carrying baggage of the past in the form of memories, particularly the unpleasant ones. Negative memories like hate, guilt, remorse weigh us more .

Pure wisdom drops. If we let them absorb deep in the soul, understands through our mind, and contemplate in our consciousness, and take action on it, it will give transforming results.

[@snehabhatt2417]

You are God's gift on this earth❤

[@imaginetolive5024]

Only thing I need to change is my perspective. Thanks

[@tarunommadan]

Truly transforming. The wisdom shared is very practical and relatable to our lives. Offloading a baggage and finding something which gives us joy, makes us feel complete in this transient and impermanent world is truly a game changer advice. Thank you so much Swami ji for sharing the priceless wisdom with us all.
