Right from childhood every child learns a technique on how to invite attention from others. A child knows very well that when he gets hurt or when he is unhappy, everybody around him becomes sympathetic and thus he gets attention from them. From the beginning of childhood, the child learns this politics of getting attention. Attention is the food of Ego. When you become miserable, people around you will become more careful towards you. In moments of bliss or in ecstasy nobody cares about you. Wife is always cajoling because she knows in order to get love and attention from her husband this is the easiest way. Our Education, our society does not allow us to become ecstatic. It is not improper to say that our entire foundation is on misery and we go on investing in it. The result of which we see is total madness, stress & grief all around us. We long for wars because we are all stressed in ourselves. A peaceful man will call the war as total stupidity. Our whole society is turning towards psychedelics. Every child is born blissful, that’s our true nature. Misery is anti-nature. It is an uphill task. It is very difficult to become miserable but we have done a miracle to become miserable. Our whole education system makes it possible. We live in our mind and hence we forget our true self. To be free from the mind is to be in Meditation. When you become witness to your mind you go beyond the mind and that is to become blissful.
