Guruji Guides us on: Leadership & Love
Condensed From Talks by – Pujya Guruji Shree Rishi Prabhakarji.
Living in a state of expectation of how things must be, we have only created hatred. We often feel that people must be a certain way. They are not okay the way they are. This way we end up hating them. In return, they hate us. This entire context is a breeding ground for hatred.
The paradigm of true love is totally different. True love is nothing but the over-spilling of fullness, the fullness experienced through meditation.
In true love, the way the other person is, or the way he acts, or behaves is not a criterion for your loving him.
YOU LOVE BECAUSE YOU ARE FULL OF LOVE.
This paradigm has nothing to do with the other person’s behaviour or state of being. If your love is dependent on the other person loving you, you are yet a slave of that person. You are not yet free and you naturally hate the person who has imprisoned you.
We define a person who comes from freedom and love, from the spirit of giving, as a true leader. Just by attending a class on leadership, you won’t become a leader. It will at the most provide a theoretical under-standing but not a practical experience.
A true leader has his cup full.
By thinking of your cup being full, it will not be full. It is only by meditating that your cup will flow over.
The very overflow of this inner abundance will manifest as love or giving. Otherwise you will always remain a person who comes from taking. No amount of hearing lectures on the spirit of giving will help.
A true leader is someone who naturally comes from giving. As long as you are trying to be a leader, it will not work. The very fact that you are trying to be a leader implies that you are not yet established in a state where you are spontaneously giving. Nor will acting like a leader make you a true leader. The only way to be a true leader is to meditate and have your cup full.
When you meditate, you will immediately experience that everyone is mine. This universal love cannot be drilled into your head through preaching but it is something which will spontaneously spring from within.
When you stick to this Sadhana, life will simply become more and more beautiful every day, it will become more and more pleasurable.
Every day will bring something new, something fantastic into your lives. God bless you. ~
