Dispassion and Passion.
When your mind and heart are truly open abundance will flow to you effortlessly and easily.
Question:
Dear Sir, As I have heard and learnt, spirituality requires dispassion; and to achieve worldly accomplishments, one is required to be passionate. When someone wants to march ahead in spirituality, passionate people criticize and laugh. How to control anger at this point of time? How can we make them understand that spirituality is the ultimate goal?
Response:
You don’t need to convince people to be or think any differently than they already are. It is the higher self that becomes dispassionate or unattached as self-awakening occurs. The ego mind can remain passionate and engaged while it fulfills its life purpose or dharma. As long as the silent witness is the dominant reference for the self, and not the ego, spiritual evolution can flourish even while one remains passionate about life.
Love,
Deepak
