Exaggeration is your mind's nature

Exaggeration is inevitable in your life. You cannot kill it. I challenge! Record any of your conversations for ten minutes. You will see constantly exaggeration erupting!

Even in a negative way – if you hate somebody, you will exaggerate negatively about that person. Exaggeration is the way your mind functions. So, till it dies, let your exaggerations be centred on your God or Guru, your Ishta. Your Ishta!

The continuous process of exaggeration, need for hope, asking for more, cannot be taken away from you directly. When you divert that to Mahadeva who can never be exaggerated, all your hope, all your need for more, everything settles down on him.
