Why do we like to do something we really love, our Ikigai?...when we do something (like writing in my case), we do it basically to further our belief in life...to keep our belief in something meaningful in the face of all the nonsense and meaningless chaos around, to keep our hope and belief in life alive, to keep going, to have some purpose to keep going....in whatever we do, we are simply justifying our entitlement to life... it's never about breaking stars or being a success icon, that's just a secondary off-spin...the primary thing is that this 21% energy in 2% mass in the head has to spin its webs to somehow keep drawing some meaning our of the chaos within and without...we have to do something, otherwise we feel hollow, dead and lost... doing something is like the compass that at least keeps giving us some sense of direction in our journey in the cosmic sea...
And when we fail to draw a direction, or do something (big or small doesn't matter, doing is just doing... only the soulful action matters), this huge energy in the little space within us creates a storm... because then we have lost direction...like a storm in the sea...so the mind needs engagement in the NOW... otherwise it's a whirlpool of aimless scattered energy... that's why action is soo sooo important...like in Gita... it's just about action... action without the worries of results is the holiest thing...it can be tending to a flowerpot or a solitary walk or making a nuclear bomb or even sitting in silence with full awareness...that's all action..
And while we are soulfully engaged in our Ikigai, it's not that we are totally blind to a vision. It exists. Even if it's a vage outline. There is always a point drawing us towards it. It's a kind of little anchorage finally. It's an opportunity basically. You may not take it as such. But it's an opportunity to feel better than we are doing presently.
That point is waiting for you like all of us...but to reach that point you have to keep your smile and smilingly shake hand with the opportunity when you reach it...the opportunity is always at fixed points in the infinite potential field...we with our human dynamics have to reach it...so walk towards your opportunity with smile, belief and confidence... opportunity never fails us...it will always wait for us to reach it... only we fail and falter and miss our date with it... because we lose faith and smile on the way...so keep going lovely souls...keep flying and fluttering...your orchard always waits for you because it surely exists...so don't miss to complete the journey!
