Why Enriching Others Makes You Complete ?
Do not think that if you only enrich yourself, you will experience completion and fulfillment in life. No! Enriching others is a basic necessity of your life, for experiencing fulfillment. When you enrich those with whom life is happening to you, only then will life be complete and enriched for you. Enriching others making others life alive!
Today, I will expand on the fourth principle of life, enriching. Please listen!
Enriching means you taking the responsibility with integrity and authenticity that you are committed to continuously enriching, which is expanding yourself and life in and around you. Enriching means continuously expanding you with these four principles, and continuously enriching others to expand with these four principles.
Listen! This is the first question that will usually come in peoples’ minds, especially, if you are a spiritual seeker. ‘Why should I enrich others with these principles? If I live these principles, is that not enough? Why do I need to enrich others with these principles?’ Most of you must be having this question!
You should understand. life happens to us outside us! Consciousness may be inside, but life is happening outside! If you are just sitting inside a cave in a deep jungle, you eat some forest fruits and drink the Ganga water and sleep and you don’t see people at all, then you may not need to enrich others. But even then, you need to enrich the tree which gives you fruit and the river which gives you water! In our life, in practical life, life is happening to us outside us!
Let’s analyze this, internalize this and understand. manana - let us do manana - contemplation, and understand this. Who are you? You are just a collection of all your identities. I can take any one example. Any one of you would like to volunteer? Come to the mike. Let me analyze your life and give you the right way of enriching.
Swamiji: Let us see. What are the identities which put together, make you who you are?
Devotee: Daughter, mother, wife, daughter-inlaw, friend, teacher, student, devotee, disciple, entrepreneur… that’s all.
Swamiji: Now, I will take her example and tell you. See, if your personality is one hundred percent, each one of these identities has some percentage in your personality. Maybe, the identity that you are a daughter occupies twenty percent; the identity that you are a wife occupies twenty to thirty percent; the identity that you are a disciple may occupy some twenty to thirty percent and the identity that you are a teacher may occupy ten percent. These different identities occupy certain percentages of your being. Am I right?
So now, your identity as a daughter can get fulfilled only if your father is enriched! Life can happen to you in the ultimate form as a daughter, only if your father is enriched. Life can happen to you completely as a wife, only if your husband is enriched. So if your personality is one hundred percent, each person has a share. Only if each person involved in your personality, in your relationships, with whom life is happening to you, only if all of them are enriched, will your life be complete and enriched.
Do not think that if you only enrich yourself, you will experience completion and fulfillment in life. No! Enriching others is a basic necessity of your life, for experiencing fulfillment. You can never be complete or fulfilled if all the people who are involved in your life are not complete or fulfilled. Only when they are all enriched with these four principles, you will experience enrichment with these four principles. When you enrich those with whom life is happening to you, only then will life be complete and enriched for you. Enriching others making others life alive!
