________________ A Child's Quest to find his "Purpose of Life" power to bring changes in your true self. So watch them... Watch them like I'm watching them... and don't imagine them to be affecting you. Just sit back, relax and watch them take different forms.... While that's happening, notice how your true constant self, within you, remains unchanged and unaffected by things that change. Everything outside your true constant self is neither a cause for happiness nor sorrow; it's only an object of your knowledge" Bhagwan Mahavir taught us that.... there is no stopping or stalling. You don't need to sign-up with anyone for happiness. You are complete and independent by all means. To achieve your goal of ultimate happiness, you don't need anything from outside. In life, we spend a lot of time classifying things outside us into good/bad, favorable/unfavorable, imagining how they impacted us in the past or contemplating how they could impact us in the future. This has only resulted in anxiety and desire to bring changes in them. 9. 10. 11. Now it's time to start to "Know Yourself and Keep Knowing Yourself". This is what all liberated souls (Gods) are doing "each moment" of "each day". This is what their idol's are telling us "each moment" of "each day". 12. We are grateful to our teerthankars for teaching us this important lesson. That's why we build temples so we can learn, this important message from them. We don't worship so they can give us something. *Teerthankar teicht - Pure Soul who lectures on our ultimate goal of being happy *Bhagwan - Pure Soul who has no desires and knows everything 34
