Inner source of energy


This world is really an illusion, the more I see it outside the more I witness this illusion. We often think that everybody carries a certain energy and it also gets transferred… so, lets say if you are with a positive guy, a part of his positive flow of energy does gets transferred into you and hence you feel positive, or if you are with a negative person, a part of his negative energy gets transferred into you and hence you start feeling negative. However, this whole phenomenon of energy transfer also appears to be another illusion, because in reality, nothing happens outside, everything is inside you only… the whole brahmand is inside every being.

So what happens in reality? Does the energy transfer from one to another happens? Why do we feel influenced in a certain way (positive or negative) with some people? The truth is, the entire store of energy is inside you, you are carrying this endless source of energy (positive, negative, neutral) in you all the time. When you meet a person with positive flow of energy, for that particular moment, he/she creates a context, a space around you which helps you to tap into your own source of energy with positive flow, he didn’t transfer any of his energy in you, but he just created a space, a context. The same happens when you are in the company of a negative person, he creates a context, a space which forces you to open your own source of negative energy.

So, when Buddha said, “sangham sharanam gacchami”, he wants you to be with people, who can create a meditative space, meditative context around you, so that you can go to your own inner source of energy and transform it into a divine meditative energy. But remember, end of the day, the vast source of energy is hidden inside you only… stop seeking it in the outside world, that’s an illusion. Go within you and there you will find this hidden jewel. Once you find it, you can just open the flood gates and let it flow towards the divine, soon the connection will be created and the transformation will happen… from human to divine. Living in the same body the human being will transcend into the endless divine…

So true, actually it is a coincidence that I was thinking about this and it was creating confusion within. Your article gives answers to some of the questions that every seeker at some point of time has. It makes me think and I am able to relate with some of my own experiences. Keep writing....looking forward for many more to come for me.....
