Somebody is asking for money, somebody is asking for bread, somebody is asking for approval. All are beggars. Don\u2019t ask. In asking you will miss much that is already available to you. Look rather than asking. Look within yourself and the emperor of emperors is there. Start enjoying it, start living it!<\/p>\n
It happened:<\/p>\n
The famous college athlete had just returned from the Olympics with a chestful of medals when he fell ill. At the hospital the doctor took his temperature, shook his head doubtfully, and said,<\/p>\n
\u201dYou\u2019re running a temperature of a hundred and five.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201dOh, yeah?\u201d answered the athlete weakly. Then, suddenly interested, he asked, \u201dHey, doc, what\u2019s the world record?\u201d<\/p>\n
Drop all this nonsense! You are already approved of, otherwise you could not have been here. God has accepted you, given birth to you. If van Gogh paints, whatsoever painting he creates is already approved of \u2013 otherwise he would not have created it in the first place. If Picasso paints something, in the very painting, the painting is approved of. The painter has put his heart into it. Just go deeper into your own being \u2013 God has put all the treasures that you need there. He has approved of you, accepted you. He is happy that you are!<\/p>\n
But you don\u2019t look there. You are asking from others like a beggar: Approve of me! \u2013 and they are also beggars just like you. Beggars asking beggars. Even if they approve of you a little, they will wait for you to approve of them. It is going to be a bargain. And just think of it: they don\u2019t have anything to give to you when they themselves are begging; and what can you give to them when you yourself are begging? Just a little alertness and one drops all begging. And with that, ambition drops, ego drops. One starts living.<\/p>\n
Dance, while you are alive. Breathe blissfully while you are alive. Sing while you are alive. Love, meditate, while you are alive. And once you change, you shift your consciousness, your focus of consciousness, from the outside to the inside, you feel tremendously happy and blessed. Just to feel \u201dI exist\u201d is such a blessing that nothing else is needed. \u201dI exist!\u201d \u2013 all the dance, all the song, all blessings, are included in it. \u201dI exist!\u201d \u2013 God is included in it.<\/p>\n
