An artist and a seer

He was an artist by profession and a seer by temperament. His honesty of thoughts commanded my respect. Often, we sat together in silence. Words were unnecessary; our communication was pure and unspoken.

One day, he imparted a profound message: respect the chair I occupy. This respect signified the responsibility inherent in my position. Guruji said, I was not holding the chair solely for myself, but for many others. My role was to ensure the well-being and success of those around me. I assured him I would strive to follow his advice.

I confessed that remaining unbiased at all times is a challenge. Guruji reassured me, saying that I possessed the capability to respect the chair; otherwise, I would not have been assigned this responsibility. He stressed the importance of self-awareness and the willingness to consider different perspectives.

Bliss, he explained, is a state of profound happiness. When one experiences bliss, there is a profound sense of peace, contentment, and joy. One feels deeply connected with oneself and something greater than oneself. There is harmony with one's surroundings and a sense of fulfillment. In that moment, one realizes the significance of the journey and feels grateful for being chosen to undertake it.
