What happens when you become enthusiastic? For example, something arises in you when you see a person. Then, you forget what is happening around you and get involved with that person. Instead of this, observe what that person kindled in you - be with it, dance with it and move through it. This is Radhe - being with it and moving through it. You are just enthusiasm, the source of enthusiasm - स्फुर्तिमात्रो - as though you have had a relationship. That's why Ashtavakra had said to have that relationship inside, i.e. Radha - Krishna - inner relation, inner union. That's why it is said that the Guru is inside you. Have an inner union with the Guru. Krishna is inside you. God, the Divine is inside you. Have an inner connection with the Divine, so that there is a fountain of bubbling enthusiasm inside you - unending and uninterrupted.
न किञ्चिदिव शाम्यति । Rest as being the consciousness and nothing else. When you go to bed, feel as though you are just a glow of light and nothing else. You are just a flame - a candle flame. Your mind is a flame. You are a flame, your body is a wicked and your karma is the wax. As long as the karma is there, the body and your mind, the glow sticks to it. Your soul sticks onto it. By feeling that you are a glow, you will see every cell of your body becomes alive. It is an uplifting experience. 'I am just the glow, chittasvarupa.' Such a person rests in much ecstasy and joy, day in and day out. So when you go to bed, do not be somebody and sleep, but be a cloud of light, a glow of a candle, full of life. Feel that you are nothing but consciousness. Feel that you are nothing but light. Do not think that you like something and hate something else. Do not think that you like a person and do not like another. Anybody or anything that you hate is going to bug you. If a rat hates a cat, it is born as a cat. If a cat hates a dog, it is born as a dog. So you will be reborn as whoever or whatever you hate. It is best not to hate anything. Drop all your hates now. Don't be angry at anybody for anything. Throw out all your anger and hatred. This is a place to be in love and joy.
In life there is just love and love. Live as though you are nobody. Live as though you are a glow of light, and you will see that bliss that you get cannot even be compared to any other joy through any of the senses. It's nowhere near that.
All the Upanishads and all the Enlightened Masters have declared that the joy of Self uniting with the Self, with the inner Being is a hundred times more than any other joy. The joy of the Self being with the Self is hundred times more than the joy in a relationship. This is how we go up and up, step- by-step to our Self.
