The ego feels it has to attain something, to do something, to achieve this happiness, this wholeness at some future time. It is a great industry run by other egos that become wealthy on selling this point. Churches, temples, synagogues, are filled with hopefuls of future salvation. I used to do all kinds of tests to make me worthy of being loved by God. Successful in some, failed in others.
Ramakrishna advised that all we had to do is to unfurl the sails of intention to catch the ever-blowing winds of Grace. You are loved and you are cool enough, beloved😎❤️🙏😇
