I don't know how many times,
people have actually
heard it said:
And yet, everything that we do,
everything that happens -
we don't
always see it that way.
|
|
We hear that life is precious.
But in the daily routine of people,
people, people everywhere;
in the daily routine of trying to cope ...
maybe we forget.
|
|
|
|
And every morning that alarm clock has to go off to wake us up.
And
every morning, in our minds, our daily routine, going through:
we know,
we know what's going to happen.
We know what we want to happen.
We know, "I must go to the bus
stop.
I must get my car. I must go to my office,
I must go to my shop,
I must go...."
And all these "musts" that we place in front of our existence....
|
|
|
|
|
And there are people who've got
their hands in the water, and
saying,
"faster, I need to go faster...."
|
|
|
|
|
Don't you know what's waiting for you at the
end of this visit?
It's obvious.
But they want to accelerate it, and time will not let them accelerate.
Time is a wonderful thing.
It goes by really fast, it goes by really slow,
but it doesn't let you
go faster than it, or slower than it.
|
|
|
|
You're
caught;
caught on this little boat -
and it's sailing down...
It won't go any faster than it has to,
and it won't go any slower
than it has to.

The destination of this journey
is not at the end.
The purpose of this journey is not to go
from point "A" to
point "B",
but to enjoy every fractional moment
between those
two points.
|
|
|
|
The simple innocence of life.
To wake up in the morning and be happy:
for absolutely no reason at all.
That's simple innocence.
|
To
be conscious; to be conscious of enjoyment.
To be conscious of "now".
That is when the journey begins to be beautiful.
That's when you begin to understand what simplicity is.
|
|
|
|
|
That's when you begin to understand
that this IS a gift. A gift!
Live this moment, every moment,
as consciously as
you can.
And enjoy it.

Prem
Rawat was given the title "Maharaji" - literally, "great
teacher", at a young age for exhibiting the unique and remarkable
traits of one who could not only inspire and communicate about the
potential of inner peace, but, unlike others, Prem could also impart
the practical and experiential aspect as well. In
his 40 years of spreading this knowledge around the world, his message
has touched the hearts of literally millions of people. |
