You Deepen In Your Relationship With God And Let God Handle The Relationship

True happiness comes from within rather than from relationship labels, so release attachment and allow relationships to unfold naturally without spiritual pressure.

Seeker

Yes, yes, that is what has been in my heart because I have, I feel very open to it, and but…yes, maybe because of past experiences or a lot of suffering for this, a lot, a lot in the past.

Ananta

Well, I have to say that ‘Some suffering is inherent in all relationships.’ So do not have this, do not judge yourself too harshly when even that comes.

Seeker

Yeah.

Ananta

Okay, it is part of the masala, the spices of life, of this kind of thing that happens in relationships. It is okay.

Ananta

Maybe right now…

Seeker

Yeah, you have to do…

Ananta

Very….very early stage, so that may not apply but some, some friction is a part of relationships.

Seeker

Yes I feel it is more than the attachment, not the suffering but the attachment to it and the confusion about happiness or completeness or something.

Ananta

Yes.

Seeker

But yeah.

Ananta

So this nonsense we can drop. In the sense that like, where can happiness come from? Can the label ‘I am in the relationship with that boy, can that relationship, can that label make some window to happiness?

Seeker

No.

Ananta

Coming from the connection like that. This is what the mind's idea of relationships is. I label and say ‘okay, this is the relationship’ and then from there something is coming to me, happiness is coming and my job is to give happiness, that way, but can it ever be like that? It cannot be. That is just the conceptual idea of a relationship. Happiness must be here, from within [One hand pointing body] not within the body but from within. So that is very important and secondly, it is the…what is the second point which is you said? Attachment.

Seeker

Attachment. But it is linked with the same no, attachment because happiness is coming from there and so I cannot let it go or something, but I am not feeling that right now. I really do not feel like that. But somehow I just don't know. I feel the potential to grow that inside it is there. I… know, I do not know if it is there or not. I really do not know but maybe it is a kind of fear, maybe it is fear that it is pulling me to come to you and say this, I do not know.

Ananta

Attachment, some suffering, all this little-little will be, and it is inherent in most relationships. So do not try to have a very super special relationship where none of this happens or some…do not put pressure, do not put your relationship under too much spiritual pressure or something. Just you be open and empty as much as possible and allow it to unfold and at the moment there will be some identification and some, some things will happen like that. It is okay, it is okay.

Seeker

Yeah, yeah and just to also share with you that I am very, very, happy. I mean I am experiencing life in a way that it is completely new and it is… it is so much…I do not know, it is ‘magic’, it is the word that comes. It is like… it is so because of you and Satsang and I am very grateful, very very grateful.

Ananta

Thank you.

Seeker

Thank you, Father.

Ananta

Thank you, my dear.
