ATTACHMENT TO MEMORY

Heal it

You don't need to reduce memory; you only need to reduce the emotional attachment to your memory. That is the real cause of disturbance. That again, belongs to your unconscious. The more you are attached to a particular memory, again and again you will replay and re-live it. But meditation will heal and integrate your being and the emotional attachment to that memory will be cleared.

Paramahamsa To De-stress, it is Easier Than You Think 6 April 2005, Oklahoma, USA

YOUR MEMORY

Is infinity

Your memory is like a library. If you are attached to only one subject or one memory, you will never have the freedom to access other memories or subjects. But if you have the emotional freedom from all your memories, you will have total access to any memory you want. You can download any CD and start playing it! No memory when it is there should create any emotional bondage. Remember: if you are emotionally free from any memory, you will be able to access any information you want; you will have tremendous memory.

STOP RUNNING!

It's the mind

Before achieving something, even if it is comparable to the size of a mustard seed, it will look like a mountain. Once you have achieved it, even a mountain begins to look like a mustard seed. Again and again your mind cheats you. Before achieving, you think it is great, and after achieving you ask, 'What next.' You run, run, run, run, run to achieve something or the other. The moment you achieve, you find a feeling of emptiness coming up inside you.

Still, you never suspect your mind.

You suspect, you doubt everything else except your mind, your idea about yourself and your idea about the world. This is what actually needs to be doubted! This is what needs to be suspected.

The moment you start doubting your idea about yourself and your idea about the world, you simply drop away from the running. You just drop. Just this doubt is more than enough. The very doubt is enough to give you the courage to drop out. As long as you don't doubt your understandings, you keep going on and on.
