Heys
Heys is a collection of my letters I send to myself. It's a way for me to step out of me and reflect on me, and life.
Hey Akash, how are you doing this fine morning?
Akash, I notice that sometimes you feel sad or envious or angry when your wishes are not fulfilled, that's your ego meddling in vyavasthit.
Instead, practice tapas. Sit with not having what you want. Let that wanting burn a bit without acting it out. It builds character and strength. It makes you sahaj.
Vyavathit does fulfill desires, but it has its own accounting and timing.
Have a beautiful day my friend
Akash
p.s. Ironically, the day you become sahaj, when your moha for the thing dissolves, is often the day you have abundance of it.
It's like that saying, the day you stop caring about being cool is the day you actually become cool.
Hey Akash how are you doing today?
Akash, when are you going to stop pretending you're not an artist?
If you share something with the world that a. moves / changes even a single person, b. is an act of emotional labour, and c. has a risk of being rejected, you're an artist and you've just created art.
Akash everyone you interact with it is changed forever.
The question really is,
a. How will they be different?, and
b. How much different?
So when are you going to stop pretending you can't make a difference?
Have a lovely day my friend
Akash
Hey Akash how are you doing?
Akash, it's all about the story you tell yourself. "I'm bad at this", "I can't do this", "I am awesome", "I envy this person", "I always get jealous when I see this", etc these are all just stories my friend. And you become what you tell yourself.
What story do you want to tell?
Have a lovely evening my friend
Akash
