A Tiny Idea That Moves the World
Selvi: Dear James, I now understand what you say. It was clear to me when I read your email. I waited a couple of days for the “but…,” but it did not come. For now, there is no need. I know how it will take care for itself. Teaching is something which happens by itself all the time anyway. And sometimes the right words flow through me in the right moment. And then there is no doer. In these moments I’m aware of the absolute confidence about what you spoke. And it is so beautiful and simple. Nothing needs to be added or made up. And the result or the reaction to it does not matter anymore. You just know it is true and truth is so beautiful.
And also, James, I got that point about “desires.” The last years I was somehow in-between because I knew that to fulfil the desires will not satisfy me and mess up my life, but on the other side it did not make me feel good not to fulfill them either. It was like a waiting for a solution. In fact I was stuck.
And now, you walk by and tell me that the problem is not the desire, the problem is the thought that there is something missing! I know, you are saying this all the time, but it did not reach me until now. Since I realised that, I’m really wondering and fascinated how such a tiny idea can move the whole world. It feels so good to have this mighty unknown power in my hands now, like a bug.
I’m so grateful for meeting you and also for your efforts to answer the questions from all over the world online. Even if someone is lacking English-language knowledge.
~ Love, Selvi
