You are still looking for someone to free you. You are still looking for a secret mantra or a secret esoteric teaching that no one knows. You are looking for the person who can give you something that you think you do not have. And you go searching all over the world. You’ll never find it because it doesn’t exist.
You have been that yourself all along. That has been you. And we go searching for happiness, we go searching for realisation, we go searching for the right mate. We’re always searching, looking, trying to find something that will bring us greater happiness, greater joy and greater peace. It cannot be done.
It appears sometimes as if it is happening like this. For you will find the right mate, the right guru, the right book, the right environment and so forth. It will appear as if you found these things. How long do they last before you become disillusioned again? Before you become used to conditions; where you are living, the guru, the mate you take for granted. When you’ve been with a person a long time and you continue searching and keep looking, you’re looking in vain.
Try to remember this: You are the one. You are the one you’ve been searching for all these years. You are the one.
