In our true mind- everything is clear.

Today's weather is quite erratic. It was a sunny morning , then comes intermittent raining and dark clouds and back to a bright sunny day. It is just like  a runaway train moving through changing weathers along its path. It maybe just a day in our life experiencing these changing weathers. In the morning, our mood could be fine, next moment, our mood change with the events of the day. This is similarly erratic.

If we think deeply and try to analyse it logically, we are the same person deep inside. All these emotions and re-actions are superficial and does not affect our core like the reflection of the cloud on the lake. When it is sunny, the water in the lake is clean and visible to the bottom but when the weather turns cloudy, the water is gloomy and dark. But , the water in the lake never change and it is the weather that is changing and giving a different outlook and impression. Just like the basic core of our character or our truth mind, it never change.

If we see through these emotions and external triggers which can be communicated to us through sight, sound, taste, touch and smell, we can be aware of these factors and not doing anything about it , letting it pass. These are passing fleeting moments. Every thought  and the influence of our senses will pass as it is continuously evolving. We remained the same, calm and still in our mind.

Just the seasons, it changes and move on. If we choose not to re-act to our thoughts and our senses, it will also pass. We should remained neutral because when we re-act to happiness , we will re-act to sadness. There is always an opposite situation. So, we will no re-act to happiness nor sadness and maintain a neutral position. You might be wondering why can't we enjoy happiness and not re-act to sadness. In this way, we will have the happy moments. Well, this maybe the logical interpretation but there is still a different ie. happiness vs normal re-action. This will trigger our mind to long for the happiness and this longing or waiting for happiness, will be an unhappy moment. So, in order to avoid such changing emotions, it would be better to remain neutral.

Just bear in mind that everything passes and our true mind will remain , so just watch it pass and do not re-act to it. An action will draw a -re-action and it will not stop.  Remember, our core or truth self never change .

Namaste.
