<em>Life energy that moves and expands itself.<\/em>\u00a0 This is a truth that one needs to internalize especially if you are over 60 as this declares the immortality of all of us.<\/p>\n<h4>Immortality is our real nature<\/h4>\n<p>\u201cConsciousness is the space where life energy moves and expands\u201d.\u00a0 This phrase needs to be very clearly understood.\u00a0 The immortality of even the people who have not realized they are immortal is declared in this verse, because \u2018Consciousness moves and expands\u2019.\u00a0 It does not say \u2018where it dissolves or dies\u2019.\u00a0 No!\u00a0 You moved and expanded never took birth or died.<\/p>\n<h4>Corruption in love<\/h4>\n<p>Consider, for example, the same vast land of planet earth, because each one is putting a fence, it becomes different.\u00a0 It becomes different person\u2019s land, group\u2019s land, and nations\u2019 land.\u00a0 Same way, in your life, the idea of birth, youth, old age, and death, this fencing happens, because of corruption in love.<br \/>\nWhat we call Love when it is fenced:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Compassion and Care : friendliness of mother<\/li>\n<li>Relationship : friendliness of another boy or girl<\/li>\n<li>Aloneness and Old Age : the non-existence of the so-called friendliness or compassion or relationship<\/li>\n<li>Death : impossibility of any of the above, even a corrupted form of love.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>When the life energy is moving and expanding itself in Consciousness, the smell of the Consciousness is \u201cfriendliness\u201d.\u00a0 But when you divide them, in different, different, packets, your life energy starts feeling that, \u2018At one day, when these possibilities are all denied to me, I am dead!\u2019<br \/>\nIf your life energy is made to believe that waking up in the morning, having your breakfast, have lunch and dinner, do a few activities, and sleeping is Life, it is a corruption that happened in the level of love.This corruption that happened in the love makes you believe that at one time you will not be able to perform these activities and that part of your life is \u201cdeath\u201d.\u00a0 Whatever you perceive or are unable to perceive, based on that, you define your life.<\/p>\n<h4>Life is based on what exists<\/h4>\n<p>Life is not based on whatever you are able to perceive or unable to perceive; it is based on what exists.\u00a0 Sometimes, your mother may not show friendliness.\u00a0 That does not mean she has lost her love for you.\u00a0 Sometimes the life energy may not provide the breakfast you want.\u00a0 That does not mean it has killed you.<\/p>\n<h4>Labelling corrupts the truth<\/h4>\n<p>Actually, what you experience with your mother, beloved, the moment when you are in death-bed, everything is the same; but, with your fence, you separate them, divide them, label them individually, differently.\u00a0 That labelling makes you feel you have life or you don\u2019t have life.<br \/>\nIf you believe eating is life, when you are not able to eat any more due to diabetes or hypertension or any other obesity disease, you feel your life is over, you are dead.\u00a0 If you think sex is life, when your body is no more capable of performing, you think you are dead.\u00a0 So, whatever fence you make and brand it, identify it as love, as life, that concept corrupts the truth \u201cyou just move and expand in the space\u201d.<br \/>\nOnly a person who understands this truth \u2013 \u2018I neither have life nor have death\u2019 \u2013 can really renounce.\u00a0 Real renunciation is possible only when you understand that \u201cthe life energy moves and expands itself in space supporting all activities\u201d.<\/p>\n<h4>Meditate on<\/h4>\n<ol>\n<li>\u2018What is the life energy, \u201cMaatharishva\u201d (\u092e\u093e\u0924\u0930\u093f\u0936\u094d\u0935\u093e), Upanishads declare, which is in me, which will just move and expand when I leave this body?<\/li>\n<li>What is that which entered into this body to use this body, which will move from this body and expand itself when I leave this body?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\n<em>Based on satsangs delivered by rare Living Incarnation Paramahamsa Sri Nithyananda<\/em><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/youtube.com\/lifeblissfoundation\"><em>http:\/\/youtube.com\/lifeblissfoundation<\/em><\/a><br \/>\n<em>Satsang : 27<sup>th<\/sup> Feb 2015<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Upanishads declare that who you are is &#8211;
