Our true identity

When we relate to our small, limited ego-identity, we feel vulnerable and fearful. This is because we do not have faith in Paramatman; we get caught up in trying to extract our happiness from things and people. However, when we implicitly trust Paramatman and learn to identify with the vastness we essentially are, fear, misery and pain drop away.

In this video, Gurumaa narrates a beautiful story to illustrate this truth. When the Lord gifts us happiness in the form of pleasure and happy times, we are thrilled but when times get rough, we blame and curse everyone and everything for our suffering. It is at those times that we can recall this touching story and remember that Paramatman is always there for us and that He gifts us what we most need to grow and to develop our true potential.
