Beam of energy🔗

You will be amazed to see how much can happen when you are just standing! Wherever you happen to be at the moment, just try standing still, silent, without doing anything for a while. If you can close your eyes and stand without support when your eyes are closed, that's even better. Stand in a relaxed, comfortable way with your spine upright. Standing upright is not strenuous, as you think. On the contrary, when your head, neck, spine and legs fall in a straight line, your body will be in a state of perfect balance. This is a posture of alertness combined with ease. Standing is a beautiful way to let the energy flow smoothly in your body. When you are just standing, slowly, your thoughts also come to a standstill. Just stand as long as you can - even an hour is wonderful. As the energy settles inside, you become silent and still. When you are totally centered, your body disappears and you become a beam of still, radiant energy.

Don’t like it? Don’t do it!

TECHNIQUE & INSTRUCTIONS

How many of the things you do every day do you really enjoy? Forget about going to work or paying bills – even the thing that you do for pleasure, you hardly ever enjoy. When you are eating, are you really enjoying it? Even when you go for a walk, are you totally into it? Most of the time you are just hurrying through your actions without stopping to think whether this is what you really want to be doing. That is why there is so much conflict inside us. When you are doing something you really enjoy, you are connecting to your being –because all joy comes from the being.

What instructions can be given for this? Right in the middle of whatever you are doing, just stop and ask yourself, Do I really want to be doing this? Am I really enjoying myself? If you find that you are not, just stop whatever it is. Just drop it. Don’t do it. If you are really enjoying it, you won’t even need to answer yourself – you will know. Just for 48 hours, try this technique. In 48 hours, you are not going to lose everything! Whatever you lose in 48 hours, is anyway not worth keeping! In 48 hours, your life won’t come crashing down just because you stop doing the things you don’t enjoy. But in that short time, you will surely get a taste of what it is to be totally integrated, totally at ease. Understand, you cannot practice this technique unless you are aware of your actions at every moment. You have to be a constant witness. You cannot get carried away. When you learn to stand apart and enjoy the action, that is real enjoyment – without attachment, without fear. Then you see clearly that the joy is coming from the being, not from the action itself. When you move away from the action and focus on the inner experience, you move deeper into your own being. Your actions are aligned to your being. You become integrated.
