Now i don't have any desire to fit into some particular place or situation or with a few people.
I don't even have this desire or expectations that i should be liked by any or everyone.
I am now living on my own, as i like to live, mostly alone, peacefully, content with whatever i have and what i am doing as my work or occupation.
I don't even bother about what others might think about my way of life or living,other opinions about me are not an issue with me.
Now i have surrendered completely to the will of the divine.I have become his instrument through which the divine functions.What the God does is going to be my destiny.And he is my guide.
My body, mind, and senses are the tools of the divine through which he makes me experience his varied creations which appears as universe to me.

My favourite, work occupation and hobby is writing about life based on Indian spirituality.
I have a lot notebooks in which i have noted the teachings of Indian spiritual gurus.
The said notes are helping me in writing my posts on social media and also helping me to get advanced in my spiritual journey.
When I have looked back on my life, and how i lived my life all these years,- i have found out that I have lived my life on my own terms, and I had this clarity that,- happiness must be my priority in whatever I do and how i have to live.
And i have lived my life mostly on my own company, involved in the worldly material things whenever they have become inevitable, otherwise, i lived almost alone.
Now i really feel happy , that i didn't spent my life on the ideals of material worldly society, but lived as a seeker of truth most of the time, which i considered as precious.
I know my wife, and most of the society people didn't approve the way i have lived, not bothering much about money and property.
But now i have attained the knowledge about who I am really, and what all this life is all about.
So i don't bother about others opinions or approvals.I live on my own being a humble and simple person, always doing sadhanas to live as divine awareness.

The existence has allotted a fixed amount of life energy for each one of us -for the purpose of survival as a person in this particular incarnation.
And from amongst the allotted life energy, some portions will be used to function as body, and some to think,plan, and do mental activities.And the remaining energy will be used by emotions.
It is only when a person is able to use the life energy equally,one could live one's life in balance.
Only meditators can save some portion of this allotted energy for creative expressions and also for spiritual practices and for spiritual advancement.
This can be done by minimising the use of life energy from doing unnecessary bodily functions, and from overthinking, and not getting into emotions for acquiring worldly material things.
However this becomes possible,- only,if one is graced and becomes able to realise that life is not here only to live as a materialistic worldly personality but it has another dimension of spirituality and creativity also.

Indian spirituality tells you to be just an impartial non judgemental observer of all your oncoming thoughts,feelings and emotions - and treat them just as clouds passing through your cosmic sky.
Let the clouds pass through, you become just a knower of them.Dont get involved in them,nor try to follow them.
Now you just exist, not as a body mind or ego - but simply as a knower observer of all the bodily and minds experiences and sensations.
Now you exist just as space behind all your experiences, just as screen on which the reflections are flashing as light and shadow.
Don't bother about senses and their respective objects - know that senses were not there in your dream state, still you were able to see a world there.

Being a spiritual person, you have to have this understanding - that no worldly person would be ready to accept and say that they have done something wrong and they have committed some mistake.
They are always ready with some excuses,or show how- other people or situations are behind- why they were forced to react or behave in such a manner.
So a spiritual person must have this knowing and the kindness to allow people to have these kinds of excuses which save their egos.
When you realise about the cravings,desires of the worldly peoples and their unconscious urge to show off-that, they are someone special and they are not going to commit any mistakes - you feel alright about it and be free of any urge to correct them.Actually it is none your business.

There are three states of existence as a human being according to Indian spirituality.
There is sushupti or deep sleep state, where you don't have any body mind ego or any worldly material experience.But after this sleep you always feel that you had a nice sleep and you always feel happy about it.
Then there is dream sleep state where you have this virtual idea of you being a person with a body and an outside objective world, and you feel it is all real when you were in it.
But soon after getting awake you think this all a dream stuff created by the mind within the brain.
And indian spirituality says that your so-called wakeful world or the jagrut state is also a dream,may be a longer dream with a collective awareness with others.
By realising this jagrut state as- also a dream phenomenon is known as enlightenment.

Indian spirituality says that Eshwara( Atman )who is a part of the divine, which can modulates itself, through its potential- as soul or Atman and assumes a finite form to experience divines infinite with idea to have a comparison state of existence.
And due to karmic leela this Atman goes to sleep and starts imagining a dream of the so called jagruth or awake state of an objective material world and a jeeva or a person living in this imaginary world.
But after a time - this Atman gets awakened from his dream sleep and remembers who it is.
Then it lives its remaining prarabda karma till that time is over, as an observer of the apparent objective world and the imaginary person in it.

You need to understand that, through your mind you cannot dissolve your sufferings.
Let all your so called sufferings appear and disappear.You be just a distant observer of them without getting caught in their contents and stories.
Only sadhana you need to do is to rediscover and recognise that you are awareness.
When you realise that you are Atman who has gone to sleep and seeing the dream of this worldly life as if you are a separate self.
The moment you get awakened - you start treating this worldly material life just as a movie in which you have been given a role to enact and you are doing it.Now that you have awakened - you now can be a divine spectator too.

When you are going through the pains of fear, and anxieties, just become vigilant to see to whom these negative sensations are happening.
Let your attention not move towards the content of these emotions, but direct it towards the so-called suffering entity, which is nothing but your false entity - the ego.
When you watch like this - you will realise that these kinds of emotions do come and go,as clouds in the sky.
But the sky or the witnessing concious ness won't get affected by them.
Because awareness is not objective in nature,it is the essence of the divine self.It will always be there in the background,as the space ,the screen on which these stories pass through.

Now being a spiritual person,- i can go through all the so-called experiences of body, mind, ego, worldly things,its losses,gains - without any feelings or emotions because I know, I am not any of them.
Now there is nothing like an experiencer like " i" or " me" in me anymore. There will be just experiencing.That is all.
Now i exist as a constant observer to what all happened to body, mind and ego.I can see all of them from a distance,as if they are happening to a third person - in a movie.
