As I continue to grow in Sadhguru, I now have a different understanding of this. To experience life, to be life, you have to step aside, you are in the way. In other words, you need to devoid yourself. To simply let go of controlling of your own life, because you really cannot control any thing in life.
The night Jesus was about to be crucified, he asked the divine to take away the cup of death, it is too painful facing death. Yet he also said only Father's will be done, not his own. Meaning if life has to happen, self has to go, therefore death on the cross, no more self. Once self is gone, life rushes in, and your life begins.
This morning one of the meditator I admire and respect very much called, she was in tears telling me how she gave her heart and soul to volunteering, yet some how she was misunderstood, unjustified by the situations and people around her. Listening to her, I felt her frustrations and pain. Suddenly this Jesus and the cross image came to my mind, and I shared with her, she was very inspired and encouraged. Because she is in this critical transitional place, either she becomes Christ, transcend her self thru cross like Jesus, or continue to identify herself in worldly manner and suffer.
Volunteering is a process of giving yourself. It’s an opportunity to give yourself- Sadhguru
