The Inner Sunrise

The rising Sun always gives me goosebumps as it paints the sky in colours of crimson and orange as it rises over the horizon. It is one of the most beautiful sights and I can never tire of seeing nature’s beauty paint the sky in various hues of orange and red – the energy one receives on seeing this wondrous sight every morning is wonderful. Every day the sun rises without fail whether we see it or not; similarly, we too have to wake up every morning whether anyone sees us getting up or not.

The universe does not want you to be in any other place than where you are at now – you are always where you have to be – that is nature’s law. The change with life begins with your present space and time if you work towards understanding the process of life. You need to open your body, mind, and heart to experiment in life. You leave all the laziness and lethargy behind. You stay fit and remain active to participate in life. With a genuine desire to live and go deeper within you come across a realised Master sent to you because of your deep-rooted desire to go within – that is nature’s law – help is always available for those who seek it! The Master helps you find your own internal bearings. Under his guidance you realise that the heart is the space where you get attached to life. All the feelings and emotions are the beautiful aspects of life that enhance the quality of life.

The understanding towards life, allows you to experience life with detachment. You engage with every moment of life, but still, you remain detached from within. All this starts happening when the sun within you rises and lights up your inner space. Meditation helps you to get ready for the oncoming day in advance. The mind in you is different from the brain – the mind is the subtle form inside the physical body.

As the day progresses, the sun shines brighter bringing more light and energy to earth. The earth gets nourished along with all forms of life – both animate and inanimate – it does not differentiate between anyone or anything as it radiates and gives light equally to everyone and everything. Nature follows its natural course, similarly, you too have to understand your intrinsic nature, with the lighting of your inner lamp – the rising of your inner sun, you begin to see life in its true form.

You become a witness as you realise that you are nothing and you are everything. You are the sun, the moon, the stars, the galaxies – you are the universe and the universe is you. Once your inner sun rises realisation dawns and you discover your true intrinsic nature.
