Thank you Darren,
I have for many years grappled with the concept of Joy.
What was Joy and how could I feel it?
It had always been something that I felt was just out of reach until today – today listening to you I realised that I was dismissing the Joy in my life because it always accompanies deep sadness.
I previously thought that until I managed to feel Joy, free of sadness and compassion for the messy world we have created then I wasn’t capable of being joyful. I felt that somehow I was ‘doing Joy wrong’
I have listened to Dr. King’s lecture many times but NEVER picked up on this vital inclusive point.
Bless you, for helping me through this misconception.
Thank you for highlighting this point in the comments, Debra, and for sharing your experience searching for joy, which is one a lot of people might share. I think this insight from Dr. King can help a lot of people. Blessings, Darren
Darren, it was a sheer pleasure and delight to hear you express your understanding on this subject in such a clear and insightful way. A fine extract, beautifully interpreted and espoused!
Thank you, Paul! 🙂 Very kind words. The extract is a good ‘un for sure! Resonated with it as soon as I heard it.
Wow thank you for sharing such a fantastic insight why we are here and for one reason only to raise the kundalini to fulfill the real happiness
Love and light namaste 🙏
Yes, he has given us the meaning of life! 🙂
