Remove your labels, are you enough by yourself?

 


 When you alert your wife - "You are not taking care of your health." Then she will take it as if it is your love. But when you say to her - "As a husband, I think it's my right to tell you that you should take care of your health." Then she realizes that you want to dominate her. If you ask your husband to eat on time, then he will consider it your care and he will also like it. But if you would say something like this to him- "My father also does work, but he is not like you." Why don't you eat your food on time? ”You will see that hearing this will hang his mouth.

 


 People do not like to put a label on themselves. His ego gets entangled with the label. Labels hit people's minds. Whatever is done as a label, it is never happily accepted.

 


 If you tell someone - "Green leafy vegetables will be good for your health," he will include them in his diet. But, if you said, "As a strict vegetarian, let me tell you that you should start eating green leafy vegetables," he will start arguing with you on this issue. The label 'vegetarian' has become a problem here. If you say to someone, "Forgive him." Love anyone who hurts or hurts us, "may he pay heed to you. But if you said something like, "As a true Christian, I request you to forgive him, and love your enemy as well", then you become your next enemy. The label 'Christian' has become a problem here.

 


 Suppose you told someone "how good it is if our airports system gets better." He will support your view. But if you said, "While living in Singapore, I have seen how things can be organized." I wish our airports were more organized, "it would be considered your lover abroad.

 


 Your partner does not like your partner to be a member. If someone is anti-Brahmin, no one considers people from Assam credible. 'All Marwaris are the same' - these are all silly comments that measure everyone on the same scale.

 


 It is a human weakness. When you come face to face with a label, a nickname, you start feeling a little small. Therefore, in your defense you stand up with your full power. I do not know why, with labels a human suffers from some kind of 'complexity'. He has no problem with you. His problem is with something that you are in front of him as a representative - position, prestige, religion, etc…

 


 Why do we need a label? Is that a post that makes you proud or is it you, that makes that post proud? Does the chair need you, or do you need a chair? If only a label or a nickname is your introduction, then without a label you will not be able to do anything. A person who lives only on the strength of a label or a surname is never able to form a deep and close relationship. If you are a person that increases the importance of that label, then you do not need it. This is where deep and close relationships begin.

 


 "Gurudev, accept me as your disciple," the inquisitor urged. "Tell me who you are," the Guru asked. "Ramachandra Rao." "This is your name, remove it and then tell who you are," the Guru said again. "I am a businessman." "That is your business, remove it and then tell me who you are." "I am a man." "That is your gender, remove it and then tell me Who are you. "" Gurudev, beyond that I don't know who I am! "" It's fine now. This is the first phase of a curious journey. When you remove all your labels and you remain pure, that is the starting point of everything. Your business card may affect the priest, but it is meaningless before God, ”said the Guru firmly.

 


 Remove yourself from your labels and help others. You are enough in yourself Only the pure you - the starting point of the beginning of everything. When you - as you are - are enough for yourself, then you are free, self dependent. This is real freedom!
