Moulding With Awareness

Add as a preferred source on Google

You watch a TV serial and start liking a particular character. The character becomes a solid reality for you. You unconsciously start expecting to see that kind of behavior in the persons associated with you in real life.

Do you know: People even carry the image of the 'ideal guru" in their minds? Usually it is the image of an old man, with grey hair and a flowing beard – what you see in books and TV serials! And when they come and see me, they are unable to accept that such a young person can be a real Master! So I too face the same trouble. I too have to free people of their expectations about the Guru before they accept me!

"But Swamiji, sometimes we feel that we have to chisel… like when we are handling our employees at work. What do we do then?"

Do your chiseling consciously. Be aware of what you do – then you will not do more than necessary. See if your expectations of your employees are realistic. Check if there is any alternate solution. Only when it is absolutely necessary, should you try to mould the other person.

Whatever power has been given to you, learn to use it with awareness! Even anger and lust are great energies given to you by God. When you have respect for that energy, you will not waste it or misuse it.
