The Sacred is the Most Secret

God is not an experiment. He is an experience. One can know God only by being God. Be
in touch with your core, for it is the most sacred space; it is your real treasure that none
can steal away from you; it can either diminish nor grow, for it is always infinite, always
available. Think, speak and act from that space; feel and rejoice; perform and prosper
from that space, and then your life will turn out beautiful in every sphere—be it your
professional or personal life.
Being Godly doesn’t require renunciation from your duties, from the activities of the
world, or withdrawing from friends and family. All it needs is to perform your actions
perfectly, to the best of your ability, but without developing any kind of attachment or
desire for the results. Being interested in everything, but attached to nothing is the way.
It is a state of equilibrium, a state of equanimity where one does what needs to be done
from the seat of the highest wisdom, the intuition within them, but knows they are
neither the doer nor the enjoyer.
A dry leaf floats in the wind. It appears to be moving on its own, but it actually is not.
The waves bring twigs to the shore and takes it back when they recede. The twig goes
back and forth, but it is not doing anything by itself. The waves bring it near the shore
and takes it back too. Similarly, a spiritually grounded person, seems to be doing
everything physically and mentally, but within, he is neither the doer nor the enjoyer.
What is so great about being in this state? – one may ask. Simply put, this is exactly the
state in which your true Self, the best in you, or the Divinity or God—whatever you may
call it—manifests and expresses itself through you.
Do you want to manifest the best version of yourself? Tune within and act from your
sacred space, which is hiding itself right within you. Seek it and stay with it.
