The one thing that I’m good at is realize that every experience we have is pinpointing the source of why we suffer and self-generated, and that we’re the source of
every single thing we are experiencing— our sadness, anger and fear—we can also realize that we are the source of love that we are feeling. When we realize that we’re the source of the love, we don’t then engage in relationships from a place of need. Relationship becomes a choice. The whole dynamic evolves. This speaks to maturation of who we are, because we’re no longer staying in a dynamic that is unhealthy because we’re afraid that the love we’re feeling, because of someone else, is going to go away. Now, we prioritize the love that we have inside of us. We recognize that we’re sharing the experience of the love inside of us with another. The other is not the source of that love.
How do you explain our chaotic times?
We human beings are going through a process of evolution that to a certain degree has been already charted on our behalf. A collective awakening is being birthed in the world. We are all on the same journey in which the essential self is emerging into conscious experience, shifting out of separation and suffering into connection and bliss. Every single aspect of your life contributes toward this greater evolution. Every incredible messenger, teacher and person who has ever had a calling, a passion or love for something that they’ve shared with the world has shortened the distance between where people are and the outcome they are moving toward, which is oneness, or love of Self. In the wake of widespread cacophony, pretenses and egoic structures are falling away, unveiling the true reality of love, kindness and human connection. For more information, visit PanacheDesai.com.
