MINDFULNESS
Being a Seeker
kārpaṇya-doṣhopahata-svabhāvaḥ
pṛichchhāmi tvāṁ dharma-sammūḍha-chetāḥ
yach-chhreyaḥ syānniśhchitaṁ brūhi tanme
śhiṣhyaste ’haṁ śhādhi māṁ tvāṁ prapannam
I am confused about my duty, am besieged with anxiety and
faintheartedness. I am your disciple, and am surrendered to
you. Please instruct me for certain what is best for me.
There are people who claim, they know what causes the
miseries in their lives, still they are not ready to tread the path
of inner peace and happiness. There are rare people who
recognize the confusion, fear, anxiety, helplessness in their
nature (acquired by the mind) and ready to learn, educate the
mind. They transition from a person to a student to a disciple
to a seeker of peace, happiness, love and wisdom.
The seeker has an intense desire. The intense desire keeps
mind on the steps that help succeed in mindfulness. These
steps are:
Learning the principles aim at discovery of subjective
reality.
Contemplation and reflection that results on conviction
and removing the doubts and confusions of mind.
Regular practice with wisdom that translates the
intellectual understanding to awakening.
The above verse says the seeker never loses his focus to tread
the path during many challenges in life i.e. anxiety, confusion,
and suffering. Only the seeker cannot lose his/her faith in
oneself and succeeds. The seeker is always looking for
answer, within oneself.
We all have the same mind, still its expressions are different.
It is the mind with its impressions that makes us unique. But
the same mind, upon following the path of eastern wisdom,
recognizes the problems and seeks solution within. It says, ‘I
am responsible for suffering and happiness. How to help
mind change to secure and discover happiness within’. The
mind that blames, complains, reacts, and regrets, projects
worries is not ready for mindfulness.
