593. LET GO needs no extra EFFORT at all………

http://www.speakingtree.in/public/spiritual-blogs/seekers/self-improvement/let-go-needs-no-extra-effort-at-all




If we observe a monkey climbing a tree there is something to learn. The fore legs try to grab the trunk of the tree and the hind legs let go the trunk at ease. This procedure makes the monkey to scale the tree easily. For the monkey to grab the trunk with its fore legs definitely some effort is necessary but to let go the trunk by its hind legs there is no effort at all automatically the hind legs tend to leave the trunk. In reality if the hind legs of the monkey is adamant not to let go then the fore legs do feel uncomfortable to latch on the trunk of the tree.

Exactly the same way is our connection with life, unless we develop LET GO attitude we are not free or unable to move on forward. An individual is in such a situation due to his sole responsibility. It is like a kid who has gone into the bathroom and has bolted itself from inside; it he cannot blame other for getting locked inside and he alone can free himself.

More often the word “LET GO” is misunderstood as submission but in reality it is not so, it is just accepting the facts as it is without any conditions, but with concern. It is also sometimes dubbed as losing confidence but the core intent is to overcome the confidence. And LET GO also has created a illusion in some as forgetting the past and moving on into the future, but if one forgets the past everything that one does in the future has to be resurrected again and this will never help him move ahead but will make him dormant. 

What has to be LET to GO then?  

Old memories that cause hurt and pain if revived --- have to be LET to GO, but lesson has to be learnt from it. 

Anything that does not belong to you and are never intended to you --- have to be LET to GO, but one has to strive hard.

Hurls of insult that come your way by someone who thinks you as their concern --- have to be LET to GO, but understand the relevance of it.

The thoughts of revenge and vengeance --- have to be LET to GO, but should not let it happen again.

In simple words LET GO is to let the events unfold as it should without putting up a fight to avoid it or work hard to enhance it. It is just leaving it alone without a bother or anxiety.  

LET GO the LOWER MATURITY so that it will be easier to latch on to the  HIGHER MATURITY. Sometimes if we let go, then alone we are able to see if there was anything else better to hold on to.

What say?????
