Never Nothing

Hari OM
'Freedays' are the 'gather our thoughts' days; Q&As; a general review of the week so far…

When you have those days that you feel you have nothing to offer, know there is always something. Indeed, it can be when you are feeling exhausted, flattened, mentally low and drained, when it seems that negativity reigns and there is nothing you can do about it, that sitting before an image of your ishtaa-devataa, or the OM, or merely the flame of a lamp or candle that you can offer your burden.

Yes, the burden you carry can be offered also. There has been talk of service in this week's posts but also of the Totality. Nothing we carry is ours alone. To take it as such is to add to our own burden and demonstrates a lack of faith in your ability to rise above the mire of life.

If you have not yet truly surrendered, offered up your burden, try it this very day. Feel the joy as trust builds between yourself and the Higher Essence.
