Gangaji, an American born author and teacher, who travels the world speaking with spiritual seekers from all ways of life. She carried the small idea of her teacher's which says "it's absolutely simple, what I've to say to you and I'm still deeply discovering the reverberation of that and it's simple stop looking for what you want", She's not telling us to stop exactly looking for what we want but cynically the want which we're wanting to be in our hands tomorrow. Because more than what can be wanted is already who you're, but there's a chance 'if' which everyone is afraid of because when we stop, there is a chance we might be giving up hope in the next activity, next woman, next man, next day and so on...
When you reveal anything, anything can become new especially it can become fresh; Sometimes we can't make it new but we can always make it fresh. According to her this isn't a belief or a teaching or a way to live which can make you rich or universally loved or never have a sad moment. None of that is guaranteed; But rather we could investigate; What is here when I stop trying to get anything. Where does this begin and where will it end, then it makes us wonder that Am I willing to trust that? And so the challenges grow big.
Then she goes there's more willingness to know then not to know that's what makes it more interesting, eager to know what is happening next in death . Everything we think of will vanish; there's nothing going to exist someday. You're a man or a woman, you made it or haven't made it, your memories, history, every burden, everything which comes to an end with death. That's when freedom becomes the foreground of what we thought as the background of life. As human beings we learn through imitation because it quickly bypasses conceptualization that a major part of socialization of all cultures we look closer to we learnt without learning it which illustrates what you know without learning it. It's everything you learn which makes us good, bad, enlightened, not enlightened all that is known before learning.
We've learned profoundly to imitate being something which is the base idea of religion and schools, when we couldn't we end up with something else but its down to us so the challenge is to surrender to what you know & who you know deeper sensibly or conceptualization then we can have a conversation that has never been used or been done especially without imitation which will be heart to heart that doesn't need to be filtered or check listed to feel what's right or wrong rather it's unknowable. She discovered that in the willingness to have that conversation there is already wisdom and intelligence, a beauty and a realization that is simply in its own willingness to reveal itself.
