We think we are alone. We think we are isolated and separate from the world around us. We think that our pain is unique and no one understands what we feel. But this is all the illusion of thinking that we are a wave isolated from the ocean. Whatever we feel, the ocean can feel too. Whatever we feel, good or bad, is in the ocean where our wave is travelling through. It does not belong to us. It is just there at that location and once we move past it, we will not feel it again. When our soul finds something dirty, it is best to just do what we can to help to clean it. Never take it personally. When we take it personally, we think we own it. When we think we own it, it becomes more difficult to let go of it. Thinking we own it is like glue. It can stick to us a long time. When we realize it does not belong to us and just see it as dirt in our house, we can pick up a broom and brush it out of the house!
The dirt of karma is everywhere. If we don’t mind the dirt and just do our best to help to clean it, we feel better and the world is a cleaner place than before. The individual wave of our soul is directly connected to the entire ocean where all waves come from. When Enlightenment dawns we realize that every wave is connected to us. Our Divine Soul is an ocean not an isolated wave on the surface. We are directly connected to everyone and everything around us.
