It was a dark room and suddenly someone opened a window. It was dark outside too but a small light came from somewhere and within few seconds everything was visible. I realized that does not matter how dark it is, a small light can make it disappear.
Similarly, in our lives, we need to remember, doe snot matter how dark it is, how tough it is, we need to follow the light.
But then how do we follow light in life? Someone asked me, how can we improve our lives that way? How can we know we are on teh right path?
WE do not need to follow everything. Believe me, if we start following only one thing, it will connect us with everything else. Every path will lead to same destination. It is like, we can follow truth, we can follow love, gratitude, forgiveness, kindness or anything else. One thing will bring in such a ray of light that it will disperse the darkness around.
How? Let’s say, you want to follow truth. It will save you from all other bad things. If you follow gratitude, it will help you in seeing whats there. What’s being done for you. No more complaints. No more anger and then the love will start spreading. If you follow forgiveness, you will be set free and then the space will be taken by love again. Kindness, will bring in love. You will be kind in whatever you will do, whatever you will say and then the love will start following again. Everything will start bringing in more love.
So follow the light. Why do we need to follow the light? Because this is who we are. Light is God. A path of light will lead us to who we are, will lead us to God. It will lead us to self-realization.
