A Lifelong Study
                 

You become weak the moment you think you are.

You are always filled with Divine strength...........There is no weakness that comes to you............It is you that becomes forgetful of your Divine strength and chooses to walk into the world of weaknesses.

A man in a state of weakness asked the sage, "For how long will I bear this agony of my own weaknesses?” The sage smiled and replied, "As long as you shall make them your own, until then they shall rule ................the moment you do not associate your Self with them, from that moment on you shall receive the inner strength to chase them away." "And what if they return again O Wise One?", the weak one asked. The sage held his hand and answered, "My child, you are holding on to the hand of weaknesses...............it is only your head you are turning away.................How will they leave you if you have held on to them............You have only wished not see them for a moment.............And even when you do not see them you are grasping on to their words of threat as your security............and then again you turn toward them defending them and securing yourself under their protection...........You have failed for your each attempt was made only for you to return to their misery................You are not bearing the agony of the weaknesses .......you, O child are bearing the agony of your attempts in which you are more sincere to your weaknesses and less sincere to your very own Self.............It is your Self that is your very own...............all else comes to you only because you have left your Self and walked toward them……….  Return to your Self ............Be sincere to it alone.............Be steadfast and devoted to its guidance……… Give your every breath.......every moment to knowing who you are.......................You are too busy in fearing your weaknesses...............Instead study your Self...........The more you study your truth the more you shall be able to observe the weakness............The more you observe the weakness the more distant they shall become.............The further away they shall become, no more you shall call them your own............and at that moment your agony shall end.............from then on there will be nothing to bear..........."

What you fear most is not the changes that surround you..............but it is how much you change and stray from your own Self.

Weaknesses are like an addiction...........One holds on to them.....for one fears to make...........the immediate change.

The weak ones first cry to be saved...............and when you try to save them they cry to be left alone.

Know that you are stronger than you think.............and then think that you are stronger than you can ever know!
