has been imposed upon you. And once all the thick layers of conditioning are removed, your ego starts disappearing. It is the ego that keeps you separate from the whole and keeps you miserable.
The moment bliss arises in your heart -- and it always means only one thing, that you are again bridged with the whole -- then immediately your life becomes a light, not only for yourself but for others too. Your life becomes love. Not that you are loving, you become simply love. That's how one becomes a blessing to the whole existence.
Blessed are those who are blissful because they are not only a blessing to themselves but a blessing to all.

Man can live either by his own will or as part of god's will. The first is the way of the ignorant person, and because of that the ignorant person suffers. His whole effort is futile because he is trying to do something which is impossible. We are part of the whole, we cannot exist as separate entities, not even for a single moment.
We can believe that we exist as separate entities, but that is only belief, not reality. And whenever belief goes against reality it creates suffering because you live according to something which is not the cass; you start going wrong. When you live according to the real there is no misery -- bliss is the outcome.
The man who understands drops his ego for the simple reason that it is only a false notion. There is no way to materialise it; it will remain false. And to spin and weave your life around something false is a sheer wastage of energy... but that's what millions of people go on doing, hence they suffer. The suffering is caused because without understanding the reality they go on trying to do something against it. They are trying to go against the current. Their whole energy becomes a constant
