Life and Loneliness

 Much has been spoken about this concept, my favorite being the discourses by Osho and Jiddu. While today I was contemplating and summarizing the understanding of these concepts to finally pen down something I can come back to always, I realised the idea of loneliness first exists in our mind, hence we couple it with some story always in our mind, an ongoing dialogue in our head either with ourselves or with the other.

    The idea of loneliness is a story we create in our head, to kill that concept of future we create more stories and ideas to help us get rid of loneliness our present is thus in reality just acting in accordance with the fear of loneliness. In the process when things do not go as planned we tend to feel hurt, more fearful of our future being lost, as our planning was based on fear always.

    Hence entire work of Jiddu and Osho connects when they say look at your thoughts in present,in the day today movement of thought and observe where the action is coming from. One can never find love or flow in an action based on fear, so we remain conflicted in the present and when things are aligned with what we seek we are content and briefly happy. 

    Yet considering the larger picture, things change, after all they were only ideas especially out of fear and nothing thus can come out of a weak foundation. What thus is planning out of love? Here they answer, Love is in the moment, be in the moment totally and in that process whatever we do comes out of love, the beautiful thing about it is even if it does not go as planned or rather as expected , it still is LIFE!!!
