going for the up coming program

For many years, I have misunderstood the meaning of volunteering, because the word has been over used, it has been abused in such a way, that the whole process of self cleansing has been overlooked. It would be better, not to use the word "volunteering" too often, just like "peace", "love", "spiritual" and "God".

Does this sound familiar? I volunteer means 1) I am willing to give my time and energy to a good cause, but only if I have time and money to do so? 2) I get to see Sadhguru, because I need blessing from Him. 3) I am a good person, and I need to show some support for the organization. 4) I need some steam, as my practice has not been very consistent, this event may rekindle the fire within me..

Two weeks ago as I was volunteering for the World Peace Day in ashram, Sadhguru showed me the true meaning of "self cleansing" or "devoid myself", this process is not something the body and mind can understand, because spirituality is beyond body and mind. I started out as a volunteer, like I always have, but the experience was very different, so different that "I" stepped aside and Existence stepped in. It is not about "I", it is not about "efficiency", or "organization", it is about "being meditative" and "devoid myself". Yes, the glass is most fulfilling when it is empty, like Sadhguru used to say, if you are in that state, a state of being an open door, something wonderful has to happen, there is no other way.

Start preparing yourself for whatever program you are volunteering right now, don't wait till the day of the program to begin, Existence is always ready to emerge, you ready?

"when you hold something more important than yourself, you are naturally a volunteer. If you are too full of yourself, you cannot be a volunteer. Volunteering means you are a willing process of life, you must always be put in a place where you don't like, working with people you cannot stand.. no like or dislike.. "- Sadhguru
