I have always admired reading J. Krishnamurti's talks and writings. He asks us not to close our mind and heart when it comes to reading or listening to something beyond right or wrong by keeping our mind and heart open. Sadly we get caught up in either-or mindset. Like it, then get it, accept it. If we do not like it, throw it away, reject it. We tend to divide the world into right or wrong, either or mindset. However, there is a Middle Path called Madhyama Marga by the Compassionate Gautama Buddha. We have been experiencing divisiveness in the world on the ground of races, genders, religions, beliefs, cultures and ideologies, forgetting that we all are children of God. God treats us equally without any distinctions. Sadly lots of fights and wars have been created by such divisiveness. When we go beyond such harmful divisiveness we experience Oneness in all. If we keep our mind and heart open we experience Divine Oneness in all.
Anger is one of the most difficult emotions to regulate. Anger breaks up relationships. It is compared to poison. It breaks up relationships and destroys our potential to sustain and blossom our human relationships within ourselves intrapersonally, extrapersonally and universally. What sad news! There is a way to cross the bridge of our life amicably, compassionately and lovingly. It is in our hands. I do not believe in creating walls of misunderstandings and relating to oneself and others with these walls. This way we create the Divine Union. May we all sincerely and steadily work on the path of Divinity. How do I relate to this divisiveness and overcome the walls of divisiveness and build the bridge of uni on? I find practicing Mindfulness Meditation regularly very helpful in building and sustaining the bridge of uniting. It is not that easy when the bridge of relationships has become weak or sadly broken. I learned from my parents and other spiritual teachers to work on my mind and heart to build and enrich bridges of relationships. I believe we can do it as I have done it in my life by practicing Mindfulness Meditation daily. Namaste.
