Experience

Thought always try to give continuity to yesterday's experience. On Friday we went for outing, if one has lived completely all the time in "Celebrity homes" he returns back with very little memory about it, that means you will die psychologically for that experience, if that is not happened thought overtakes your mind and it creates an illusion about past happy time. Thought is cunning in it's nature, it always finds a way to escape from the fact, the fact is now, the now means the present time, in which you are reading this mail and after that you have to complete your tasks if your work is boring, thought will bring the illusion of having great time on Friday and deceives you. If the past experience is painful, still thought plays with it, it tells you take care so that it won't repeat again, which breeds fear not an intelligent action. Yesterday's experience is always a dead thing thought trying to repeat that experience breeds pain.
Pleasure and pain are two sides of a coin; you can't avoid one and invite the other.

There is nothing wrong in having a good experience by watching a movie, spending good time with your family/friends or plying an excellent shot in caroms/cricket....etc, the danger lies when I try to live in such a experience endlessly. Which is nothing but craving for an experience, when there is neither craving nor suppression in your mind experience is no more a problem for you.

To make it simple if you are living with awareness about yourself you are learning all the time. If the process of learning is occurring in your mind at that moment the doors for heavens are open for you, no kind of suffering can touch you. I hope you know learning doesn't mean accumulation of knowledge.

Die for your experiences so that you can live in the present moment, asking how to die is again the cunning activity of thought.
