Inside out

*Inside Out*

Often people say, "Be the same inside as out". I ask you, how is this possible?

Inside you are a vast ocean, infinite sky; what you can show outside is only a tiny bit of it. Outside you are finite, just a small limited form, a normal stupid person!

All that you are, the love, the beauty, the compassion, the Divinity, doesn't show up fully. What shows up is the crust of behaviors. Ask yourself, "Are you really your behaviors? Are you just your behavioral patterns"? No....... Don't mistake this crust for your inside.

Neither take the limited body/mind complex as your inside nor show your Infinite Lordship outside, for Divinity is not easily understood. Let there be some mystery.

*DON'T BE THE SAME INSIDE AND OUT!!*

�� *Jai Guru Dev* ��

Q: What is the meaning of ‘Annadata Sukhi Bhava’?

Sri Sri Ravi Shankar: ‘Annadata sukhi bhava’ means ‘those who are providing me with this food, let them be happy’. Will you all say this one mantra every day before your meals? When you say this, you are wishing prosperity for three people. One is to the farmer; the second is to the trader who buys from the farmers and sells the produce, and the third is to the woman who cooks the food and serves it to you. First, we wish well for the farmers. When the farmers are happy, then the ones who eat the food will also be happy. But, if the farmers are unhappy, and they are shedding tears and giving us food, then when we eat that food, we become sick. So, you must wish the farmers good health and happiness. In this country we are ignoring the farmers. Farmers are committing suicide because they are sad and unhappy. When they are sad, then the food they produce brings us only misery. So, all of you should wish them happiness. Second, we should wish well for the traders. If the ...

Botheration basket

Q. After putting our botherations in the ‘ botheration basket’ how do they get over? #SriSri: It gets over, right? How does it happen that you leave it to me. How many have experienced this that your botherations got solved? Everyone raised their hands.) Just by putting your botherations it is taken care, you continue doing that. I will tell you this secret later. When you feel like everyone is your own and when you do not want anything for yourself then you become capable of doing everybody’s work.
