While re-listening to one of the Bhaja Govindam Satsangs, I had an aha moment when Acharya Shunya mentioned that "to have hope is to be not ok with what is right now and with the divine orchestration". " Hope is the crutch of the samsari" added Acharya Shunya. I have had this tendency for such a long time, living with the hope that something or someone would somehow come back and fill my void. This created such a false illusion, leading to that domino effect we are all familiar with: desire, greed, attachment, and anger. These emotions take away our focus from the real and lead us to the unreal, keeping us stuck while we sleepwalk in samsara. That's why we need these teachings that show us the path from the unreal to the real, from darkness to light, and from death to immortality. Jai Maa!
