Ramakrishna Ananda relates two stories that illustrate how we unnecessarily hold onto our troubles. The first, involving a bullet, is from his early childhood. The second, involving a kite, is a classic yoga story. These parables teach us that, once aware, we can often let go of what is causing our misery.
I did dispose of the bullet and my anxieties went away. I found that lesson to be true throughout my life. Am I holding onto something that’s causing me anxiety, conflict and difficulty? Is there a way to appropriately dispose of it? Why carry around things that cause you trouble?
We bring the California mountains to you with online retreats that include Life Mastery techniques, guided meditations and devotional chants. As you access the material at your own pace, you’ll have the opportunity to be spiritually uplifted and stay connected to higher consciousness. See the Online Retreats.
We ask you to commit two hours a week to selfless service. This service can be anything you choose ranging from helping a family member or neighbor to volunteering at a nonprofit organization.
This commitment is solely between you and your inner self.
