25th June
Good morning with another beautiful Rumi quote ,” When I run after what I think I want, my days are a furnace of stress and anxiety ; if I sit in my own place of patience, what I need flows to me, and without pain. From this I understand that what I want also wants me, is looking for me and attracting me. There is a great secret here for anyone who can grasp it. ”
Is this Pandemic here to teach us not to run so much after our wants that we are stressed out and anxious all the time ? To have patience and sit back and wait for things to unfold in their own time….. to wait and realise ( as Osho says ) that *”Existence has its own timetable “*…..
Or as the Zen proverb says, ” *Sitting silently, doing nothing, Spring comes and grass grows by itself* “….
Are we ready now to sit silently, do nothing and wait for the grass to grow ?
Love,
Anjali Bhatawdekar
