The most fortunate event that can take place in our lives is
when we feel, “I do not want anything, and I am here for you”. I have been bestowed with the good
fortune of feeling this way right from the beginning. My wish is to see more
and more people being able to think in this manner. Imagine how society would
be if each member of the society thinks the same way! This feeling, this virtue
is already there in everyone, but it is just hidden somewhere deep inside.
When the leader of a country feels in this manner, only then
will the country progress; and when he is focused on the development of the
country and its people, it is impossible that the needs of the leader are not
fulfilled. But if we focus only on our needs, then we don’t give ourselves and our abilities a
chance to blossom. We must always believe that our needs will be fulfilled.
This does not mean that when you have some needs, you
suppress them saying, “I do not want anything”. This is a feeling that arises
from a state of contentment or fulfillment, and not by neglecting or suppressing
your needs, and fulfillment comes from spiritual knowledge. When you pay
attention and focus on the highest knowledge, then your needs are fulfilled
even before time.
Inner joy and true happiness alone can stop the feverishness
in society that arises through desires. This kind of inner joy and happiness
can only be achieved through knowledge. It is a matter of joy that The Art of
Living is bringing together the various communities of the world. The core of
every religion and culture is love, and The Art of Living is also based on the
same principle of LOVE, “I do not want anything and I am here for you”. More and more people around the
world should be able to develop the ability to say this.
If everyone starts to think like this, this world will
become heaven. If everyone only thinks of taking something from someone, then
we will continue to see the current world situation.
We are developing the world to make it a heaven, and it
feels very good to see it happening. So every day we move forward with this
belief that ‘I am
yours’. Love,
action, fun and celebration are all present in this knowledge. All of this comes
from the knowledge.
